Brenda O'Grady Wedding and Family Celebrant - Registered Solemniser

I am a HSE Registered One World Interfaith Minister serving people of all beliefs and none. I can legally marry you and will guide you through the process of creating a Ceremony written just for you that expresses your love and commitment in a unique, personalised and meaningful way.

You may wish to include personal vows, selected readings, poems enhancements or mini ceremonies such as handfasting, sand ceremony, ring warming, ceremony of light to name just a few. All of these can be seen on my website www.weddingandfamilycelebrant.ie under the heading of Enhancements. You may want your ceremony to be full to the brim with pzazz or something more low key and meaningful, the choice is yours.

As I am not aligned with any particular religion I have the freedom to create your Ceremony to reflect you and I will help make the planning through to delivery as stress-free and simple as possible.

I have taken a vow of inclusivity, welcome diversity of belief, gender, orientation, colour, nationality, ability and culture within the bounds of Irish law.

When you book a Ceremony with me, as you will see from my reviews, you don’t just get 30 minutes. I invest in you and you get meetings, telephone calls, face to face meetings and in these Covid-19 times Zoom / WhatsApp & Skype meetings. You get to sit with me and plan you Ceremony, not a template, not a generic Ceremony that could apply to anyone but a bespoke Ceremony that is centred on you and your partner. You get drafts and re-drafts until we get it just right for you. You get personalised ceremony enhancements such unity candles, sand or handfasting ceremonies and more. You get the benefit of my years of training, my 16 years of experience creating Ceremonies and access to the resources that I have built up over the years. You get a Ceremony that has been created with Love and you get your Ceremony held at your location on any day of the year at any time. (Just remember when choosing your venue for legal solemnising it must have an identifiable address with a building that is open to the public.)

For a legal marriage, you need to Register your Intent To Marry with the HSE at least 3 months prior to your wedding date. I always advise to make contact with the HSE well in advance just in case there are any delays. I will guide you further on this when we meet and I am happy to advise on the legal procedure for getting married in Ireland.

My all inclusive fee is €595 (I do not charge for the materials for two Ceremony enhancements (i.e. unity candle, sand or handfasting ceremonies) travel or meetings with you to plan your Ceremony.

You can also find me on the weddingsonline profile page of ‘A Ceremony 4You’.

I look forward to joining you on your journey!

Rev. Brenda
