A Ceremony Your Guests Will Remember

Many couples describe their Silver Bee ceremony as one of the highlights of their wedding day.

Personal Ceremony
We had a wedding blessing ceremony with family and friends hosted by Stephanie. She was brilliant from start to finish. We had an initial zoom call to discuss ideas and see if we're a good fit, we then booked with Stephanie and had a few ideas over email as well as meeting to go through more content for the ceremony. Stephanie guided us through the process with ease and made us feel really comfortable, especially as we're not used to talking about our relationship! She carefully pulled it all together and on the day was so kind, professional and warm. Out family and friends all said how personal the ceremony was and really enjoyed it. We had a ribbon handfasting as we all sharing advise from family. Stephanie also worked with our photographer to organise a confetti line. Throughout the process she was easy to work with, kind and made us very comfortable. Thank you!

RHS Wisley Wedding
We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Stephanie for a humanist wedding. Stephanie was very personable and knowledgeable about humanist weddings which helped us develop ideas together for our ceremony. This included getting different members of our family involved which was very important to us. Our mums helped us literally 'tie the Knott' with ribbons which was a bit of fun and made a colourful display. Stephanie creates a bespoke ceremony tailored to your story which makes it a unique and memorable experience! So many of our friends have commented on how special the ceremony was and especially on Stephanie's involvement in making it so unforgettable. Thank you Stephanie x

Special Ceremony with Personal Touches
Stephanie was absolutely fabulous with helping us plan our ceremony and the ceremony itself. She gave us great ideas and helped us include all the special touches to make it personal to us. We had a rehearsal the day before so we knew exactly what to expect and day on the big day. She listened to all our ideas and it was easy to talk to her as she was very friendly. I would 100% recommend Stephanie to anyone wishing to have a special ceremony with personal touches.

Warm and Professional
We are so grateful to have had Stephanie as our wedding celebrant! From our very first meeting, her warmth and professionalism made the entire journey very easy. She took the time to understand our love story, and her vivid style captivated our guests, making each moment feel personal and heartfelt. She struck the perfect balance between sincerity and fun, exactly reflecting our personalities and the vibe we wanted for our wedding. The ceremony was beautifully tailored to us, with thoughtful touches like the ringwarming and anecdotes from our family and friends which all our guests loved. Thank you for making our wedding day so special!

Everything Was perfect
Stephanie was fantastic with communication and was always quick to reply to emails, which made everything feel really easy and stress free. She also made the effort to come to our house so she could get to know us properly and hear our story. This felt like such a personal touch and made the whole experience feel really special.

We also had a Zoom call just before the wedding to run through the logistics of the day, which helped take away so much of the stress.

On the day itself, everything was perfect. Stephanie was incredible and led our ceremony beautifully. She captured our story so well and shared it perfectly with our family and friends. We had a small and intimate ceremony, and Stephanie helped create such a relaxed and personal atmosphere, which suited us perfectly.

She was so professional, but at the same time felt like such a natural part of our wedding. We had so many comments from our guests about how beautiful the ceremony was and what an amazing job Stephanie had done, which we completely agree with.

We honestly cannot thank Stephanie enough for helping capture and lead such a special part of our day. She truly made it perfect. If we could give more than 5 stars, we would.
