Bonjour & Welcome!

I’m Natasha, an English-speaking Independent Celebrant and Master of Ceremonies,
blending performance, purpose, and personality to create
bespoke ceremonies that truly reflect who you are as a couple.

With experience in radio, public speaking, human rights, diversity, and
French wedding planning, I bring warmth, empathy, and inclusivity to every ceremony I create, crafting ceremonies that honour your story, values, and journey.

Your Celebrant -
Honouring Every Love Story

Your love story is unlike anyone else’s — it doesn’t fit a template, and your ceremony shouldn’t either. I take the time to truly get to know you, so together we can create a moment that feels authentic, meaningful, and deeply personal.

Whether you’re non-religious, religious, interfaith, multicultural, LGBTQ+, or blending traditions in your own way, your ceremony will reflect who you are and what matters most to you. As your Celebrant I co-create ceremonies that feel like home, even in a foreign country, crafted with authenticity and heart. Your ceremony should be as one-of-a-kind as your love, meaningful, inclusive, and truly you.

Master of Ceremonies –
Your Day, Flowing Naturally

Let your talented planner lead behind the scenes—

I’ll host the room.

This optional add-on takes the pressure off you and your favourite people, so everyone can simply relax and enjoy this rare moment together. Working collaboratively with your wedding planner, I’m the voice your guests hear, ensuring everything flows smoothly.

I’ll welcome and seat guests, cue the bridal party, and introduce or prompt speakers and performers—keeping your guests informed, engaged, and at ease.

Additionally, I host an online rehearsal with your speakers to review cues and timings, and offer support to trim speeches if needed—so everything stays lively and on point.

As your MC, I’m the calm, reassuring presence on the mic—supporting your speakers, easing the pressure on your loved ones, and helping everyone feel confident, cared for, and completely present in the moment.

 Your Wedding Ceremony in France: FAQs

Because your love story deserves more than paperwork.

Planning a wedding in one of the most romantic places in the world — France — is exciting, but the legal process can be complex, especially for international couples. Many choose to handle the legal marriage at home and then celebrate with a symbolic ceremony in France, surrounded by stunning backdrops such as a château, vineyard, coastal setting, rustic barn, woodland, or a courtyard strung with fairy lights.

  • A wedding ceremony with a celebrant in France is not legally binding. Only a ceremony conducted by the local Maire (Mayor) at the town hall can legally marry you, and these are usually short, administrative, and conducted in French. French law also requires at least 30 days of residency in the commune along with extensive paperwork, which makes it challenging for non-residents.

    Most international couples handle the legal part in their home country and then come to France for the ceremony they’ve been dreaming about.

  • Freedom. Without legal restrictions or scripts, we can design a ceremony that truly reflects you — your story, your promises, your style. This is the part your guests will remember: the laughter, the tears, the atmosphere. Having a professional celebrant means you and all of your guests can fully enjoy the day, without worrying about timing, flow, or improvising.

    I’ll guide you every step of the way. Together, we’ll talk about what matters most to you, explore different styles, and shape a ceremony that feels natural and personal. From readings to vows to symbolic rituals, every element will be chosen with care so that, by the time your wedding day arrives, you’ll feel confident, relaxed, and excited to share a ceremony that’s uniquely yours.

  • Absolutely. Many couples say their celebrant-led ceremony felt more real than the paperwork. You’ll be exchanging vows, making promises, and celebrating with the people you love — that’s what a wedding truly is.

  • I lead ceremonies in English, but I can include French elements if you’d like to honour the setting or welcome French-speaking guests.

  • Yes, of course. Handfasting, wine rituals, readings, blessings — or something entirely new. The ceremony is about celebrating who you are, in a way that feels true to you.
