Edel O'Flynn Registered Solemniser

From the first phone call to Edel and our first meeting. She was extremely helpful and friendly. Edel gave us plenty of information. She was always available to answer any queries we had. I would recommend Edel 100%

Edel created the most perfect ceremony - it was truly us from start to finish. She told our story with warmth, humour and heart, capturing exactly who we are as a couple.

Every element felt meaningful - from the handfasting (with surprise envelopes hidden under guests’ chairs!) to the unity candle lighting and remembrance candle for my husband’s parents. It was heartfelt, funny and beautifully personal.

So many guests told us it was the most emotional wedding ceremony they’d ever been to. We couldn’t agree more — Edel made it unforgettable full of love and laughter. We've amazing memories now, to cherish from our wedding day. We’d recommend Edel to any couple looking for a ceremony that feels authentic, emotional and full of joy. Fiona & Chris

From our first interaction with Edel up to our wedding day, Edel was helpful, friendly, and warm - she gave us advice and guidance throughout.

Edel created a beautiful ceremony for us - it was thoughtful and relaxed. Keeping our couple's story as a surprise was a lovely touch and we couldn't have asked for a more gorgeous rendition of our story - it was meaningful with a touch of humour!

We would like to thank Edel for helping make our day so special. We highly recommend Edel to any and every couple planning their wedding!

We really cannot recommend Edel enough! From our very first phonecall all the way up to the ceremony itself, she was an absolute pleasure to deal with and crafted the most thoughtful ceremony. So many of our guests told us that it was the nicest ceremony that they had ever attended and that was all down to the care that Edel put into every detail. She really takes the time to get to know you and it shows from the minute that the ceremony starts.

Edel was able to strike the perfect balance between those sentimental moments and the stories that made our guests giggle. She made us feel 100% at ease from the moment we met and loved meeting up and crafting everything together.

Thank you so much for making our day so special! It wouldn't have been the same without you.

Edel was fantastic! My wife and I planned our wedding from very far abroad and Edel was so helpful throughout the whole process. The few bits she needed from us to create the ceremony were fun, simple and really engaging. The ceremony itself was gorgeous and so easy going - exactly what we wanted! People were falling over themselves to tell us how lovely they found it. Could not recommend Edel any higher!

Peter and I got married on the 25th July in Inchydoney and Edel was our solemniser. From the moment, we made contact with Edel, she was amazing. She was so friendly and warm and instantly we felt at ease. She was so efficient. The ceremony was just beautiful, everyone was raving about the it , saying it was such a beautiful ceremony as she included personalised touches for us such as very much involving our two daughters and Peter love of surfing.
Edel got us to complete our couple story individually and she put together our story and spoke about it on the day and it was such a beautiful touch.
From the bottom of our hearts, we really want to thank Edel as she just amazing.

We were so lucky to have Edel as our wedding celebrant! From the very first video chat , she was warm, approachable, and genuinely interested in getting to know us as a couple. She guided us through the process with patience and care, making everything feel easy and stress-free. We absolutely loved the "individual private love story" Edel asked us to complete. She then combined our two stories to create a tailored narrative of our life together.

On the day, her calm and friendly presence set the perfect tone. The ceremony was heartfelt, personal, and beautifully delivered – exactly what we had hoped for. Our guests even commented on how lovely and engaging Edel was, and how the ceremony felt so “us.”

We couldn’t have asked for a more supportive and professional celebrant. Thank you, Edel for making our day so special – we’ll remember it forever. Highly recommend!

Planning a wedding from afar isn’t easy, but working with Edel made the entire experience so much smoother and more enjoyable. From the very beginning, Edel was incredibly responsive and supportive, guiding us through the process with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care.

On the day of the ceremony, it was such a relief knowing that Edel was completely organised and fully aligned with our wishes. That level of preparation gave us the peace of mind to relax and truly be present during one of the most important moments of our lives.

Before the ceremony, Edel took the time to check in with both of us and helped to calm our nerves with her calm, reassuring presence. She created the perfect atmosphere—personal and loving without ever feeling overly fluffy or formal. It struck exactly the right balance.

We had so many guests tell us how beautiful and personal the ceremony was, and that is all thanks to Edel. Her ability to put everyone at ease and create such a meaningful experience is something we’ll always be grateful for.

We couldn’t recommend Edel highly enough to any couple planning their wedding. She is truly exceptional at what she does, and we feel so lucky to have had her as part of our day.

Edel did a wonderful job with our ceremony. It was personal and lovely. Our guests commented on how emotional it was and thanks to Edel for helping us get our message across.

Everything was perfect.

Edel was an absolute dream to work with from our very first email to the follow up videos/texts/calls and all the help in between. She made our ceremony so special and based it all truly around us as a couple and got our little girl involved every step of the way too. All our guests agreed she was amazing.!

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Edel for making our ceremony feel soo intimate, personal and heartfelt. I couldn’t have asked for anything more, it was just perfect. All the guests commented on how much they loved it, listened to every word. She did a fantastic job and we were soo happy 💖

From the moment we came across Edel's profile we had a good feeling about her and after our first call we knew she was the woman to officiate our wedding! She is a genuine, authentic person and it was clear that she put a lot of time, love and thought into creating our ceremony with us. When we met in person the day of the wedding, it felt like we had always known each other. It was an honour to have her celebrate our wedding and we were delighted with it from start to finish. As were the guests! Three months later they're still talking about how personal and wonderful the ceremony was. Thank you so much Edel for creating such a beautiful ceremony for us. I highly recommend Edel and would love another opportunity to work with her 😃

It’s hard to put into words how greatful we are for Edel. She gave us the ceremony of our dreams! I know I might be biased because it was my own wedding, but I didn’t know wedding ceremonies could be so light, funny, serious, personal & romantic all at once. I can’t even count the amount of people who said it was the best ceremony they had been to. Edel was professional, kind and great fun always. We cannot thank you enough. You made our day so special. All our love, Megan & Warren xxx

Edel was wonderful to work with from start to finish. She was kind, supportive, and really invested in us as a couple and our story to help craft our ceremony. We've got nothing but compliments on how heartfelt and intentional everything about our ceremony was, and that all came about through our discussions with Edel. Would highly recommend her for any future couples looking for a nondenominational celebrant

Edel performed our wedding ceremony last weekend and we cannot thank her enough for all of her help, guidance and support over the last few months. Neither one of us really knew what we were doing and she really made this process so much easier for us.

The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and it felt like we had a true friend up there with us. It felt so personal and individual to us as a couple and we were so pleased that all of our personalities shined through during the ceremony.

We appreciate all of her hard work and your advice along the way, we cannot thank her enough for making it such a relaxing and enjoyable experience with no stress! She was always there to answer a question, and adjusted anything we wanted and ensured we were happy the entire time. Edel is an absolute superstar and we are so glad she was part of our big day.

Our ceremony was absolutely perfect, and it was all thanks to Edel! She took such care in getting to know us as a couple and helped us to create a ceremony that felt really personal, intimate, meaningful, and fun! We didn’t know where to start when it came to planning a ceremony, and Edel guided us along the way with so much professionalism and passion. After the wedding, we had multiple friends and family tell us it was the most personal and memorable ceremony they had witnessed.

Edel made us laugh, cry, and feel the gravity of the moment surrounded by those we love. She is a real master at creating a wedding ceremony that you and your guests will never forget! I cannot recommend Edel enough!

Edel was our celebrant for our wedding on the 14th of October in the Station House. We had met a couple of celebrants on zoom while we were in the searching stage and didn't feel that any of them were the right fit. The minute we met with Edel, despite being over zoom, her warmth and passion were so evident, we knew that she was perfect for us!
We chatted to Edel about how we wanted the day to feel, we were hoping for a fun and relaxed atmosphere, full of love, but not too sappy! To say that Edel gave us exactly that does not even cover it. Despite being incredibly nervous to stand up in front of 160 people, Edel managed to make the ceremony feel intimate, fun and relaxed. There were so many laughs, but when there were moments that needed to be included such as remembering some family members who unfortunately passed away quite close the wedding, Edel was able to do this in such a compassionate way that it felt seamless.
We've watched the ceremony back since having our video returned and again we've been blown away, Edel is so so talented at what she does.
All of our guests commented on how gorgeous and relaxed and fun the ceremony felt, and the credit for that all goes to Edel.
We couldn't be more grateful and would recommend Edel 1000% to anyone who is looking for a celebrant who has the ability to make a ceremony feel so special and personal without feeling rigid or formal.

From meeting Edel at a wedding fair, and booking her after our initial meeting, and every question up to the big day, we found Edel brilliant to deal with. She really got us as a couple, and tailored the ceremony to our exact needs. It was all we asked for, and more. We did on site ceremony and reception with the Hotel.
So many of our friends hadn't been to a ceremony like it, all were super impressed as to how on point it was to us as a couple. It was light, quick witted, and lovable. Just perfect
Edel is based in East Cork, and is on Instagram. Go look her up!.
