> booking a celebrant - not through registry office

Hi all, i know you all have a wealth of knowledge, hubby and I are renewing our vows, we have provisionally booked a registrar to come out to our venue to renew our vows for us, but we are looking for maybe a humanist to conduct the service, someone who may be a little more open to what we want to include, my hubby is pagan so we would love to do the tieing of hands etc, but not a full hand fasting. I keep doing searches on the web, but all i get are people in Manchester , New England USA, not Manchester UK, arrggghhh, does anyone have info, or could possible point me in the right direction

    Many pagan celebrants are also humanists, try your local Pagan fed.

    I found them a few days ago but got confused with the website, but i just called and the lady was wonderful, the bespoke ceremony seems ideal for us, just spoke to hubby about it, and he says yes too. Thank you so much for this. One more thing i can tick off my list.
  • glad you got sorted
    also glad not only one who found wesite confusing:rotfl:
