Laughter is the key to any good relationship, we all know this, yet in my years as a humanist celebrant I have never laughed so hard whilst delivering a ceremony as I did during Alison and Adam’s big day. These guys, and their hilarious, heckling guests, had me in absolute stitches and if I could…

A Fetterman Family Affair
Over the past five years I’ve performed no less than 74 alternative wedding ceremonies for couples from all different backgrounds and walks of life.

Back to my Beginnings – A Spring Ceremony at Victoria Warehouse
It barely seems as if any time has passed since I performed my first ceremony on St. Patrick’s day at Victoria Warehouse, but would you believe it was actually half a decade ago?! Time has a funny way of circling back around on itself sometimes and in 2022 my first wedding of the year (and…
Stefan and Alex’s Unforgettable Indoor Forest Rave Wedding
What a crazy rollercoaster ride of year 2020 has been?!

Variety is something my job promises in abundance and…

Dan is an Aussie and Hannah is a home grown Manc, although they met…
Pip & Ant’s Vintage-Punk Fusion Ceremony in an Old Theatre in Ancoats
After a crazy 16 week run of back to back weddings, Alternative Weddings Mcr are finally able to look back over the amazing events we’ve been part of this year. 2018 has been very busy and celebrant Stef has visited quite a few new venues she’s never been to before, working alongside lots of brilliant…
A Colourful Humanist Wedding in Sheffield for Becky and Simon!
September is, in all honesty, my favourite time of the year, because although I’m still busy with humanist ceremonies and wedding planning right up until Dec, this is usually the month when all the pictures from all my Spring / Summer weddings start flooding in. I was so happy when Becky and Simon sent me…
A Humanist Wedding Ceremony at Victoria Warehouse on St. Patrick’s Day!
On March 17th 2018 Stefanie was asked to conduct the wedding ceremony of Victoria D’Arcy and Matthew Irwin at Victoria Warehouse for an Old School Hollywood themed bash with a bit of a twist. Both Vic and Matt are of Irish descent and coincidentally ended up picking St. Patrick’s day for their wedding. Not wanting…
