    Absolutely amazing

    We are super happy that Your European wedding Celebrant helped us to find our celebrant Shahnaz.
    It was difficult to find somebody that spoke fluently spanish and french and Shahnaz speaks perfectly both.
    But what is amazing is that Shahnaz is super friendly, super smart, the way she writes is lovely and we loved her personality. A shiny woman that you want to have near by you during one of the most beautiful day of your life.
    The ceremony thanks to her was super personalised and we also enjoyed a lot preparing the text with her. We had an unforgettable moment at our wedding and we deeply thank Shahnaz for that. Guests were also happy with the ceremy and enjoyed it a lot.
    Thank you also Rita, our first contact at the European Wedding celebrant, she is very friendly and available. It has been a pleasure preparing our wedding thanks to quality people like them.
    Thank you again

    Absolutely amending!

    Isabel was an amazing wedding celebrant and made our wedding ceremony so special. The feedback from all of our guests was the ceremony was the best they have ever witnessed. As soon as we met Isabel over zoom, we knew she was the person to marry us and from that point, Isabel really got to know us as a couple and put together a ceremony that was personally tailored to us as a couple and our journey. Any amends to the ceremony, Isabel was more than happy to accommodate and provided the new version very quickly. We are extremely grateful to Isabel, who will always be remembered in our lives.

    A Isabel foi muito mais do que uma simples condutora da cerimónia, ela tornou-se uma amiga e pessoa especial que partilhou connosco um momento único!

    A Isabel é uma verdadeira “storyteller”, que tem o dom de tocar os corações e criar memórias duradouras.

    A Isabel cativou os nossos corações com a sua presença calorosa e genuína. Demonstrou sempre um profundo entendimento do amor e do compromisso que nos unia como casal, sendo capaz de transmitir isso de uma forma única e emocionante durante a cerimónia.

    A sua habilidade incrível de contar histórias e utilizar palavras cheias de significado fez com que todos os presentes se sentissem conectados e envolvidos no momento. Cada palavra proferida pela Isabel parecia ter sido cuidadosamente escolhida para refletir a nossa história.

    A emoção que a Isabel trouxe à cerimónia era palpável. Ela foi capaz de equilibrar momentos de alegria, amor e até mesmo de humor, criando uma atmosfera envolvente e descontraída.

    Recebemos inúmeros elogios por parte dos nossos familiares e amigos em relação à Isabel. Muitos afirmaram que nunca tinham presenciado uma cerimónia tão especial e significativa. A Isabel foi capaz de captar a essência do nosso relacionamento e transformá-la numa experiência inesquecível para todos.

    Não podemos expressar o suficiente a nossa gratidão pela presença da Isabel no nosso casamento. Ela foi muito mais do que uma simples condutora da cerimónia, ela tornou-se uma amiga e uma pessoa especial que partilhou connosco esse momento único nas nossas vidas.

    Gratidão Isabel!

    Wedding Celebrant Review

    An incredibly professional and also heartfelt service. Our celebrant worked with us for over 3 years as our ceremony kept getting delayed due to Covid and her guidance, patience and flexibility all helped make it the best day of our lives.

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear Chris,
    It was a pleasure for Vanessa to work with you! And though it took a while for us to be able to have your ceremony, it was worth the wait. Your day was one full of love and celebration that we were grateful to be a part of after knowing you and working with you for 3 years.
    Thank you again!

    5 star celebrant service

    I highly recommend Your European Wedding Celebrant and Vanessa Walsh in particular. The process was highly efficient and the result was amazing: a uniquely personalised, moving, affirming and extremely memorable ceremony. From the beginning, Vanessa presented as highly professional, clear, responsive and competent. She completely understood what we wanted, and also gave us the flexibility to edit the ceremonial script so that it was perfect for us. It was one of the best decisions we made; everyone absolutely loved the ceremony and told us that it was one of the biggest highlights of the day. There wasn't a dry eye in the place!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear Hannah & Evan,
    It was a pleasure to work with you! Learning about your story and being a part of your special day was magical. And we will never listen to the song Lean On Me again without thinking about us singing it out loud together during the ceremony with all your guests :) Easily one of our favorite wedding moments of all time! Thank you for the chance to play a part in such a personal and memorable moment in your love story.

    Highly recommend! Easy to work with, professional and FUN

    So pleased that we booked our wedding celebrant, Shahnaz! We needed a bi-lingual ceremony and the company were able to understand our needs and matched us with Shahnaz, who was just perfect. We met before booking to make sure that we were happy with the vibe, and then had several meetings over the months leading up to the big day. Shahnaz even joined us in-person when we were in Portugal for the menu tasting, so that she could see the venue and meet the staff. It filled us with confidence that the day would go smoothly, and we even asked her to stay on to coordinate more of the day beyond the ceremony.

    Shahnaz wrote the most amazing ceremony for us - so our style, fun, light, full of love, and the ceremony was our favourite part of the day!
    Payment etc was really easy, and both our celebrant and the company were full of tips and quick to answer any questions. Highly recommend!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you Anna & Pablo for this review - you made us blush! It was such fun getting to know you and getting to share your big day with you. It was a pleasure to coordinate for you, in addition to writing your wedding ceremony. Enjoy married life and all the things Zurich has to offer!

    Expectations exceeded! Best ceremony ever.

    Right from the start when we met Isabel online through a Skype call we instantly connected and her friendly and open character made it especially easy and uncomplicated to work together. She listened to our couple story patiently and transformed it into a fairytale. When we read her script we didn’t have to change a thing. She captured everything perfectly, included wit and humor but also seriousness where needed. During our ceremony we felt so at ease because we knew she would do everything perfectly - and she did exactly that. In her presence - our guests felt joyful and happy - and we felt calm although we were quite nervous of course. Even when things got a bit out of hand with our little son crying and running around, Isabel kept calm and handled the situation with ease. We couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful ceremony and it will always be one of our greatest memory of the whole wedding. Thank you Isabel, for being by our sides, making us feel calm and just being a true friend! You’re the best! ❤️

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear C & J,
    Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a huge pleasure to work with you through the last 3 years, which ended in a beautiful, genuine, and intimate ceremony. That was only possible because you were always open, warm, and easy to connect with. Thank you so much for trusting me from the very beginning and giving me the opportunity of being a part of such a special moment in your lives. Wishing you all the best for your beautiful family ❤️

    A wonderful touch to our wedding ceremony

    Vanessa was the wedding celebrant for our big day and what can I say, it was an absolute pleasure working with her to craft the perfect passage to read while we were stood facing the Douro river during our ceremony.

    We spoke to Vanessa over a video call first to gather research on our relationship, stories and experiences. After this conversation she condensed all these things down into a passage that read our story and gave our friends and family a more intimate view into our relationship and allowed us the opportunity to edit until we had the final draft.

    On the big day, her delivery was stellar and suffice to say, there were tears, laughter and much joy to be felt amongst us and the other guests. I would recommend anyone who has the chance to work with Vanessa or the rest of the team, to take that opportunity and add a personal touch to the ceremony.

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear David & Laurasima,
    It was an honor to stand with you beside the beautiful Douro and play a small part in your love story. Thank you for your trust and confidence in me to bring words to your story. It is a privilege to know you and to have learned so much about you.
    We wish you many happy years of marriage!

    Most significant, magical, memorable moments

    As we write this recommendation, we are still trying to assimilate the moving, unforgettable moments that we celebrated last week, moments that were created with the help and talent of Isabel from "Your European Wedding Celebrant" team .
    Our celebration of love would not be as wonderful as it was without Isabel.Her kind listening and understanding, her precise and delicate use of words, and above all her charming and so special character - brought to life our love story in the most precious way.
    It's not only us that were uplifted by the ceremony, all our family members and friends keep talking to us about our ceremony, saying how special, significant and moving it was. They, also, were deeply touched by her words.
    We can't recommend Isabel and her team enough, it was probably the best decision that we've made during the organization of our wedding.

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear Roni and Ella,
    Thank you so much for your warm words. It was an immense pleasure to meet you and to learn about your beautiful love story. Thank you for sharing it with me with so much generosity and kindness, that was fundamental to us getting the final result of your beautiful ceremony. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be a part of such a wonderful moment!
    Wishing you all the best ❤️

    The Perfect Ceremony

    We had the joy and privilege of having Vanessa be with us on our special day. We had the most fantastic time during the ceremony and our guests are still talking about it. It was truly unique, meaningful and exactly what we had dreamed of.
    We are blown away by the fantastic service provided since we first started our communication from emails, to zoom calls to multiple drafts of the ceremony to meeting with Vanessa on the day. Everything was seamless and we would definitely recommend.
    Keira and Gavin

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear Keira & Gavin,
    Thank you for your words and the honor to play a part in your day. We remember your beautiful day for its plentiful sunshine and big smiles! There was plenty of rain and bad weather leading up to your day, but we were so happy when the sun came out for your celebration! Thank you again for choosing Your European Wedding Celebrant. We look forward to seeing you when you are back for your summer holidays!

    Best experience ever!

    I was unaware of the role of a celebrant in the ceremony until I "crossed" in an instagram event with sweet Isabel. In the few seconds that I saw a part of the celebration that Isabel was doing, I realized at the moment that Isabel would have to be present on our day and today, a month after we were married, I have no doubts that it was the best choice of our wedding . Isabel prepared a wonderful ceremony that touched all our guests in a very special way. Such was the impact that even today our family and friends speak of this magical moment.

    From the first contact until the wedding day, Isabel was super attentive and extremely available with us and committed all her love and care in preparing for such an unforgettable ceremony.

    I do not know how or in what context but I know that I want Isabel to be present in more important moments of our life because her sweetness brings an even more special touch to the moment.

    We highly recommend it!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dearest Andreia & Daniel,
    Thank you for your beautiful words! It is now my turn to shed a tear. Your day was something special, the culmination of our work together and your experience together as a couple, an experience and story that I am honored to have played a small part in. I look forward to the day that I can be there to celebrate your anniversary and the other important milestones in your life together.

    Mrs Summer Miller

    Can’t recommend Rita enough, she is a lovely person and made planning a Wedding Ceremony abroad easy. We got to know her over the Summer and thoroughly enjoyed all of our conversations as she makes you feel relaxed and at ease when answering questions about yourself. Then on the day the actual Ceremony was amazing, all of our guests couldn’t get over how personal and lovely it was. It felt like a friend was Marrying us. Thanks is not enough for the memorable Ceremony we had. :)

    Thank you dear Isabel

    It was through the recommendation of the owners of the place where we decided to get married that we got in touch with dear Isabel. Celebrating our ceremony with Isabel was without a doubt the best decision we made. Like so many others, we were forced to postpone our wedding from 2020 to 2021 and Isabel always had a friendly and encouraging word.

    The time Isabel spent getting to know us and the ease that was created were crucial to making a ceremony exactly in our image. Her sweet voice was not indifferent to the people who witnessed the ceremony and several (not to say all of them) told us that it was a beautiful ceremony and that they would remember it for a long time. Without a doubt, we recommend Isabel and we hope that other couples are lucky enough to be able to remember a ceremony as beautiful as the one we were lucky enough to have.

    To Isabel, we wish you all the best, as you undoubtedly deserve!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear Adriana & João,
    Thank you for your beautiful words and compliments. Celebrating your ceremony after you were forced to wait too long was like finally releasing a long-held breath. And with that breath came happiness and love and celebration. Thank you for allowing me to play a part if your love story!
    Beijinhos,
    Carly

    Incredible experience

    From the first contact, Isabel gave us the serenity that we had found the right person to carry out the ceremony in the intimate and emotional format we wanted.

    She managed, in an exemplary way, to tell her our love story. This sharing was done in detail because there was a sweetness and a genuine desire to live with us this very special moment of our lives.

    More than providing a service, we had an unconditional support from Isabel. It was our dear ally during the reverse that the wedding plans were suffering due to the Pandemic, but always reinforcing us that it would be magical. And it was, surreally wonderful. We felt that we were like living in a giant bubble of love.

    Without a doubt, Isabel was able to overcome any expectations, especially with such an exciting and dedicated devotion where we didn't even know if we lived or dreamed. Her professionalism is impeccable and, above all, tenderly empathetic. This is the encouragement that we all need at this stage in the world: to continue to create memories about Love at this strange times.

    All the guests loved it and were touched by the ceremony, they were delighted to talk about all the details and were very touched by the environment that was experienced in the middle of the forest of Vale da Corga.

    We are very grateful that our paths crossed! Much happiness and success!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear Soraia & António,
    Thank you so much for the kind words! Your day, with all that you went through to arrive to it, was memorable beyond words and I feel privileged to have been a part of it. Thank you immensely for your kind words and the chance to learn about your love story and to be chosen to share it with the world. Your day, in the forest, is one I will not soon forget!

    Personalized ceremony

    Shahnaz was our celebrant and she was always cheerful, very responsive and being flexible to our schedule given the fact that we were in 2 different time zones. At the beginning she sent us a packet with all the information needed to create a beautiful ceremony and she guided us through step by step. She created the ceremony based on our love story so it was not the cookie-cutter type but very personalized. The speech was so well written and she made it humorous and witty by throwing in a few famous quotes. Shahnaz and her team really made our day memorable. Thank you so much!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Cathy & Alex, Thank you so much for the kind words. It was a pleasure to work with you, to learn your story, and to craft a speech that did justice to your connection and personality as a couple! Thank you!

    Excellent Experience & Service

    We were very pleased with the service which Vanessa Walsh provided to us. She took the time to get to know us both individually and as a couple. This allowed her to create a bespoke service which surpassed our needs ad the expectations of all those in attendance. The level of personalisation and attention to detail was excellent and the feedback we provided was integrated and revised before being accepted. On the day, her delivery was perfect and she added to how special our day was. We would thoroughly recommend her services to anyone who might be questioning which vendor to utilise.

    Emotional and memorable, intimate ceremony

    Our ceremony was so very special thanks to our celebrant Rebecca! After our first contact via Skype we already knew we were in good hands. She wrote such an unique, special ceremony for our elopement in Portugal and we were amazed by her perfect choice of words, how she created a ceremony based on our love story! We laughed, we cried and had such an amazing time. We couldn't be happier that she was part of our special day.

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dearest Daniela & Manuel,
    It was a complete honor to be a part of your intimate elopement. I feel honored to have been one member of the small team that brought your dream day to life. Thank you for the chance to learn your love story and share in your joy!

    Porto Elopement

    Carly was very accommodating, personable and absolutely wonderful. Our elopement was an impromptu addition to a planned vacation to Portugal. Carly was able to be flexible while facing a tight timeline. In a very short period of time, Carly was able to tease out the unique qualities of our relationship and create a ceremony that was personal and captured our love story perfectly! We could not have been happier with our experience. Thanks Carly!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Lovely Erin & Dan, thank you for the incredibly kind words. It was an honor to be a part of your truly intimate and unique elopement. I'm so grateful for your impromptu decision and for the wonderful time I had learning about you two. I can't wait to see you back here in Porto soon!

    Thank you for everything!

    Planning a wedding is always a huge endeavor talking to a lot of vendors, comparing different options, taking decisions and wondering what would have happened if you would have decided differently. Not so with Carly!

    We immediately received a good vibe from her during our first call, decided to go with her and did not regret it any time.
    The following months we had several alignment calls to get to know each other better and to determine both structure and content of our ceremony. When we received the first draft of her speech for review, my fiancée and I had tears in our eyes as it was so on point. The outcome was a ceremony that felt so authentic and just like… us.

    During our wedding day, Carly played an extraordinary role being our anchor with her experience and peaceful aura during a day where so many things were happening around us.

    To sum everything up:

    Carly's support before and during the wedding was just outstanding! We cannot recommend highly enough for everything she has done for us.
    All the interactions with her in advance and during the day from sharing our stories to create a lovely ceremonial speech definitely made the whole experience unforgettable for us.

You are incredible couple that has been through so much, only to come through it stronger and more in love. Thank you for the honor of telling your story. Beijinhos, Carly

    Destination Elopement

    Carly was an absolute dream to work with, and made our day even better than I imagined. Planning a private destination elopement so far away was much easier than I expected - due to having an awesome team which included Carly as a big part of that! She was flexible with scheduling phone meetings (since we were half way around the world and 8 hours behind her), and always seemed genuinely excited to learn about us as a couple, and what she could do to make our day perfect. Her custom ceremony was amazing, and the perfect mix of traditional, silly, and romantic for my husband and me. When we finally met Carly in person, it was like meeting an old friend (as we all ran to catch our boat before it left)! I wish we could have hung out with her longer!

    My dearest Jocelyn & Michael! Thank you so much for your beautiful words. It was an honor and privilege to know you and to hear your love story. Just like in your story, I think the universe meant for us to find each other and create your ceremony together. I can't possibly thank you for the trust you put in me to be a part the team of three that got to witness your commitment to one another, it still gives me the chills. And I hope we will have a chance to hangout again, maybe in California!

    A Perfect Day from a Perfect Company

    Vanessa @ Wedding Celebrant was more than perfect! Our wedding ceremony has already been referred to as the best one any of our friends have been too and this is definitely down to Vanessa. She is extremely approachable, readily contactable, personable, and listened to our story to deliver a phenomenal reading, service and ceremony which we will never forget. We would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dear Saw, It was our great privilege to conduct your and Eion's ceremony! A match made in medical heaven, your ceremony was all about bringing your love for each other, your friends, and life together. We appreciate your incredibly kind words more than we can properly express because we know you could have asked anyone to conduct your day, but you asked us. For that we are grateful!

    Fantastic!!!

    We had such an amazing experience with Vanessa Walsh. After interviewing a few celebrants, it was clear she was the right choice for us from the start. She was warm, professional, and kept us on track when we got caught up in all the planning details. Vanessa was flexible with all of our non-traditional requests , encouraging, and a wealth of information and suggestions while drafting our ceremony outline. We cannot offer higher praise or be happier that she was a part of our day.

    Dear Robin & Nick, Thank you so much for your kind words. Your day was unique and wonderful in so many different ways and I was proud to be a part of it. Best wishes and love to you both, Vanessa

    A truly incredible service

    From our very first contact with Carly, she was wonderful. After an in-depth conversation about our lives and how we met, Carly produced the most incredible, heart-felt and funny ceremony, far beyond anything we could have ever wished for, so much so that we almost cried the first time we read it. Carly was very accommodating and travelled to Lagos for our wedding. She always went above and beyond with all the finer details, even down to letting us know about the Ryanair strikes the week before our wedding. Not only did she produce a brilliant script, but her delivery was fantastic too. Our guests went on a rollercoaster of emotions, laughing and crying at various parts, and even commenting that it was the loveliest ceremony they had been to.

    Thank you, Carly, for making our day even more special by being so wonderful. You truly are the best!

    With love,
    Mark and Jade

    Your European Wedding Celebrant's reply:

    Dearest Jade & Mark, Thank you for your beautiful words. I was immediately transported back to our very first call and remembering it was celebrant-love at first sight. You were a dream to work with and it was my honor to be a part of your day. Thank you for your trust and for the chance to meet you. I won't be forgetting your day anytime soon!
