Your Wedding Day is the most important day of your life and you want your Ceremony to be incredibly special, memorable and most importantly, reflect your personalities.

As your Celebrant Solemniser, I will provide you with everything you need to create your ceremony and guide you every step of the way. It will involve a little bit of homework on your part, but nothing too stressful!

I encourage couples to involve family members and friends in their ceremony, as this makes it such a personal and intimate experience for all.

My promise to every couple I have the privilege of marrying, is to create a ceremony that is relaxed, enjoyable and fun while at the same time, maintaining the integrity of the commitment you are making to one another. A ceremony that you and your guests will look back on with fond and happy memories.

I would be more than happy to arrange an informal call to answer any queries you may have (without obligation)

I look forward to meeting you.

Edel

After an initial zoom call with Edel, we felt a good rapport and knew that we would like her to be our celebrant. Adele is a warm, compassionate, considerate and professional celebrant. She was very supportive throughout our process and the ceremony could not have been better on the day. We are so happy with how it turned out, we even had a guest ask if Edel was a family member because she was so personable! Thank you Edel!

We got married in Ballymagarvey at the beginning of September ‘22 and Edel O’Connell was our celebrant. She was a true professional and helped to make our day as special as it was. We met with Edel in person at the beginning, then follow up meetings were done on zoom so it was dead handy. Edel talked us through every step of the ceremony in great detail and made the ceremony exactly as we wanted it. She was a pleasure to deal with and we can’t recommend her enough!

Edel O'Connell was our celebrant and we couldn't be happier with her work. We were sure that she had to be our celebrant since the first time we spoke with her. She's such a kind woman with great energy as well as a straight forward approach. Extremelly professional and super well organised, she made everything much easier for us from the beginning till the end. She was always available when we needed and her suggestions were brilliant. We were blown away throughout the whole ceremony and our guests commented that it was the most beautiful and emotional ceremony that they had attended. We can't thank Edel enough and we highly recommend her to anyone.

We received so many comments from our friends and family about how personal and brilliant the ceremony was. Edel was a dream to deal with from the get go, and always quick to respond and give us any advice we needed along the way. Thank you so much Edel, we will forever be grateful for the beautiful ceremony you made for us. Orlagh & Graeme

One of the highlights of our wedding was our ceremony celebrated by Edel O'Connell. All our guests commented on how beautiful and heartfelt the ceremony was. This is in a large part down to Edel. From our first meeting, Edel was patient, genuine and made us feel like our wedding was her most important one. She made the planning of our wedding very straight forward and enjoyable. We had great crac with her planning it. She really gets to know you as a couple and it shows during the ceremony. Thanks Edel for being a massive part in celebrating our wedding. Couldn't recommend you highly enough. Stephen & Laura 17.07.22

Edel O’Connell was our celebrant and we were blown away. In the lead up to the wedding we weren’t sure what to expect, everything seemed very straight forward; a few phone calls and questionnaires to fill out. Edel absolutely nailed our ceremony, she told our story incredibly well. Our ceremony was full of laughter and very light, just how we wanted it. We would highly recommend Edel to any future couples.
Response from Edel O'Connell Wedding Celebrant - Registered Solemniser
Thanks a million Maikki, we definitely had a lot of fun on the day and I was delighted to be able to share the journey with you and Aodhan. Just goes to show how small the world now is, as you and Aodhan were based in Bahrain for all the preparations. Best of luck for the future.

Edel was amazing, I wanted someone relaxed to marry us and also to add personal touches and she ticked all the boxes, leading up to the wedding we had a few zoom chats and went over everything and without her expert advice our ceremony would not have been as perfect as it was, we changed to an outdoor ceremony last minute not a single issue from Edel she was the true professional and went with it, highly recommend Edel for any wedding x

Edel O'Connell was our Solemniser for the wedding. She was absolutely fabulous! She was so professional and personable from the start. We knew immediately when we had a chat with her that she was the right person for us. She was absolutely lovely and patient and just a genuinely nice person. Our wedding ceremony was fabulous. It was so personal to us and flowed so well. It was fun and emotional and tasteful. We had forgotten a document and Edel was so relaxed about it and worked around it until we got it a little later. Overall, we could not have been happier with Edel or our ceremony. Our family and friends said it was one of the nicest ceremonies they had ever been at. Even the wedding singer said the same! Thanks so much Edel. We really appreciate your patience and kindness xx

Our wedding was delayed by 2 years because of COVID and we tried 5 times to tie the knot. It finally happened in March 2022 and it was the happiest day of our lives. We were so lucky to find Edel. She was so understanding, kind and genuinely interested in us as a couple. Edel helped us plan the ceremony and allowed us to express our relationship with our chosen songs, readings and traditions. On the day, Edel was fanatastic! She made everyone feel so welcome and Theo and I felt so comfortable in her presence. All our guests commented on how beautiful the ceremony was. If you want someone energetic, fun and loving to solemnise your wedding, Edel O'Connell is the lady for the job.

We were directed to them by another service and Rev. Edel O’Connell was available on the date and agreed to officiate our ceremony on a short notice. We are extremely happy with her service. She was thorough and took a lot of care in making our ceremony simple and personalised to our likes. Ours was a civil ceremony and we belong to different countries and faiths. She helped us choose and add both traditional and non traditional elements to our wedding and helped us make it more intimate than just a formal civil ceremony. We would recommend her services to anyone who asks. She is a kind lady and her presence made us both feel comfortable on a busy and nerve racking day.

Edel, officiated our wedding recently at Glasson Lakehouse. We don’t have enough words to describe how wonderful Edel is and how much she will enhance any wedding day into something truly personable and unique. Edel has a great energy about her and to add to that is very professional, organised, friendly and clearly a kind hearted soul. So many of our guests said that she was amazing and that the ceremony was so ‘us’- we couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Firstly, with COVID we messed around with dates and Edel was incredibly accommodating and understanding throughout. Always going above and beyond be be helpful. Edel is the kindest and most professional lady. She conducts herself and the ceremony with such ease, elegance and grace. She works with you to create the exact ceremony you want which in our case was no frills. She’s thoughtful in her approach and makes you and all of your guests feel truly engaged and comfortable in the most magical way. Book your wedding with Edel- you will not regret it.
