Pecynnau Priodas

Every couple gets my “4 Cs”…

  • Calon | Heart - A celebrant who listens and cares deeply and champions your story

  • Cwtch | Hug - A ceremony that reflects you and envelopes your guests in from the start

  • Cynhesrwydd | Warmth - warm, confident guidance from our first chat to the big I Dos

  • Cyffro | Excitement - Joyful, inclusive - and an unapologetically fabulous energy!

Handfasting is an ancient Celtic-inspired ritual in which a couple's hands are bound with cords, ribbons or fabric — symbolising the joining together of two lives.

The tradition of clymu'r cwlwm- "tying the knot" - is where the familiar phrase is thought to originate.

Handfasting can be traced back to a time when promises were spoken and witnessed through symbolic acts rather than formal paperwork. It was a powerful public declaration — it was, of course, a time when a handshake constituted a formal contract!

I'm specially trained in handfasting - and I bring all my Queen of Hearts flair to it - ask me about including it in your ceremony!

CYHOEDDI | Announce— Need an MC too?

Want some Queen of Hearts energy guiding your whole day, not just your ceremony? I also offer Master of Ceremonies services — keeping your wedding day flowing smoothly, your guests in the loop, and the room exactly as warm and fabulous as it should be.

It works alongside your ceremony - I simply switch from celebrant mode to MC mode once your ceremony is over and stay with you through to the final announcements.

As your MC, I'll take care of:

  • Announcements throughout the day - what's happening next and where to go

  • Helping your photographer coordinate group photos

  • Introducing the two of you for the first time!

  • Introducing your speeches and providing the link

  • Liaison with other suppliers to keep the day flowing smoothly

  • Reading the room — icebreakers, games or whatever keeps the energy going

  • Anything else vibe-wise that matches what you're after!

(Also available for other events and celebrations!)
