Dundalk, Co.Louth
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

Edel is such a lovely person, and she went above and beyond to help us in planning our ceremony. She offered many suggestions to make the planning process easier on us. On the day, Edel made us both feel at ease and all of our guests commented on her professionalism. She also answered all emails promptly and was more than happy to answer all of our questions in the lead up to our big day. Thank you Edel!

I can't recommend Edel enough as a wedding celebrant. From our first meeting, she listened to what we liked and wanted and did everything to help us. She had so many suggestions of readings and things to include in the ceremony which helped us tremendously. Going into the day, we felt very at ease.
The ceremony itself was so beautifully crafted by Edel. She made everyone feel so involved and welcomed, and made it feel so personal to us. The "history of us" part was so touching and funny, and it's something I will remember and love forever.
I would whole heartedly recommend Edel to any couple looking for a warm, fun and thoughtful celebrant.

Edel was fantastic and accommodating, she learned a tradition from my (the bride) culture which she never performed before and this meant a lot to me and my family. The whole process was streamlined because Edel was so prepared and she helped us form our ceremony to be exactly like what we imagined.

Edel was amazing from start to finish. We were planning from Australia but this wasn't an issue at all with Edel. Edel was really responsive and happy to work around the timezone. The ceremony was beautiful and everything we could have hoped for. Many people commented afterwards about how much they enjoyed the ceremony and that it was the perfect length with the perfect additions to it. Some people actually thought Edel had known us for years she told our story so well!! Thanks so much Edel for helping make our day so special. All the best for the future.

We would 100% recommend Edel to any couple getting married.
We planned our wedding from abroad and Edel made the ceremony planning seamless.
We had zoom calls, checkins and Edel is really responsive, great to work with and organised.
Edle also makes sure that the ceremony is flexible, and to think of what you want to have included which was great.
Lots of family and friends commented on how lovely the ceremony was and from our point of view Edel took any nerves we had away. She guides the ceremony really naturally and prompts you when needed. Thank you Edel!

We had Edel as our celebrant at our wedding and she was truly incredible. We'd highly recommend Edel to any future couples planning on getting married.
Edel was easy to work with, her experience shone through from our first meeting, easing our mind from the off showing her experience, with lots of recommendations for the format of our weddings, which we went with and it made for a great and memorable ceremony. Only knowing Edel for 12 months in the build up to the wedding, it had felt during the ceremony that she had known us for much longer.
I can't speak highly enough about Edel, choose her for your wedding and you'll understand why.
Thanks again, Chris & Sandra.

She took a lot of time to get to know us as a couple, something that was very important to us and on the day made our ceremony so personal. It was exactly what we wanted (and more)! We really couldn’t recommend Edel enough, she really is the best choice. She made us feel at ease throughout. We have had a lot of comments from friends and family how beautiful our ceremony was, and this was all down to Edel!

In the planning phase she offered excellent advice while being completely open and flexible to our priorities for our wedding ceremony. On the day itself there was a sense that Edel had everything under control - we didn't need a rehearsal, we just needed to trust in Edel's instincts and guidance. The result was a beautiful ceremony and exactly what we'd hoped for. Thank you so much Edel!

We had the pleasure of having Edel as our celebrant for our wedding in June. From the first point of contact, right through to the big day, Edel was amazing. She took the time through zoom calls to get to know us as a couple, and this really helped to make our ceremony very personal to us. Initially we thought that writing our ceremony would be a daunting task, but Edel was so helpful every step of the way and was always so quick to respond and help with any questions we had. She helped to structure the ceremony just how we liked, and she sent us a comprehensive selection of prayers, readings and blessings to chose from. The hand fasting was a very special part of the ceremony for us. We were just delighted to have Edel as part of our wedding day and we only just wish we could do it all again! Thanks a mill for everything Edel.

Everyone commented on how lovely the ceremony was. People that have been to a civil ceremony before said that it was the nicest one they have seen and anyone that hasn't been to one was amazed. You have definitely set the bar high.
We were delighted when we got home and realized you had given us the sand and the vows. They are such a beautiful keepsake.
We honestly cannot thank you enough!

We had a few hiccups (bereavements, Covid, sick baby, Groom who struggled to finalise his vows) Edel gave us space to work through what was going on while keeping us focused.
While we asked our family and friends to get involved we wanted some surprises ourselves, Edel linked in with those involved and ensured it all came together in a beautiful ceremony that celebrated our relationship and commitment to each other.
Edel we cannot thank you enough and would not think twice about recommending you!

It's been 3 months since we got married and I could honestly cry thinking about how beautiful our ceremony was. It was something that I was really nervous about but Edel made great suggestions for what we should include and honoured all our requests. The love story Edel wrote for us was a massive highlight for me and really captured who we are as a couple in such an authentic way.

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.

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 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 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.

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.
