Celebrants in East of England

Hello, I'm Edwina Goody, an experienced Independent Wedding Celebrant with a passion for creating unforgettable ceremonies that are as unique as the couples I work with. Your wedding ceremony should be more than just a formal part of the day, it should be the heart of your celebration. That's why every ceremony I create is completely bespoke, thoughtfully crafted around your love story, your personalities, your values, and the moments that have brought you together. Having created hundreds of bespoke wedding ceremonies, I know that no two love stories are ever the same, so together, we'll create a ceremony that feels authentically you. From heartfelt personal vows and meaningful readings, to your choice of symbolic elements and music, every detail is designed to reflect your relationship. Whether you want to incorporate family traditions, different cultures, spiritual beliefs, or simply celebrate your journey in your own way, your ceremony will be beautifully personal and genuinely memorable. One of the greatest joys of my work is getting to know each couple and over the months leading up to your wedding, we'll spend time together exploring your story, your hopes for the future, and the little details that make your relationship so special. Many couples tell me this becomes one of their favourite parts of the wedding journey. By listening carefully and getting to know you both, I create a ceremony that is warm, heartfelt, engaging, and full of meaning—not only for you, but for everyone sharing your special day, because the most memorable ceremonies aren't simply witnessed... they're felt.

At the heart of everything I do is people. I genuinely enjoy getting to know the couples and families I work with, hearing your stories, understanding what matters to you, and bringing all of that together into something special. I want you to feel: • Looked after • Listened to • And completely confident in your ceremony I am calm, kind, inclusive and caring, and I will always go out of my way to support you and make sure everything feels just right. Whether your ceremony is: • Romantic or light-hearted • Traditional or a little quirky • Small and intimate or larger and more lavish • Religious, spiritual or non-religious It will be created entirely with you in mind. Almost anything goes and the only limit is your imagination.

A ceremony that feels as good as it sounds I’m Andrée Funnell, a Wedding Celebrant and Confidence & Wellbeing Coach based in Bishop’s Stortford, Hertfordshire, creating personal ceremonies across Hertfordshire, Essex and the surrounding areas. What makes my approach different? Alongside my work as a celebrant, I’m an author, public speaker, leadership trainer and coach, with over 25 years’ experience helping people communicate, build confidence and feel comfortable being themselves. I bring all of those skills into my celebrancy work — from helping you find the right words and tell your story, to supporting you if the thought of speaking your vows or standing in front of your guests makes you nervous. Whether you're planning your first wedding, a second marriage or a vow renewal, my aim is to create a ceremony that sounds like you, feels like you and leaves you feeling confident and proud when the moment arrives. Come and meet me at the wedding fair and discover what makes my approach different.

This isn’t just about a ceremony, it’s about how you feel throughout the whole journey. I’m people first, always. I care deeply about creating ceremonies that feel inclusive, thoughtful and genuinely you – never something pulled from a template or forced into a script. I take time to really listen to your story, your values, your quirks, and what matters most to you. From there, we shape a ceremony that feels relaxed, meaningful and full of heart. You’ll never be told what you should do, only gently guided through what you could do, with calm support every step of the way. I offer the full experience – from our first conversation, to writing your ceremony together, to delivering it with warmth, presence and quiet confidence on the day. No outsourcing. No shortcuts. Just care, collaboration and attention to detail. If you’re looking for someone kind, organised, supportive, with a sense of fun and quietly in control when it matters, who will treat your ceremony with the importance it deserves, I’d love to be part of your story. And if you enjoy a bit of drama in life, just preferably not during your ceremony, we’ll get along just fine.
