One person to guide your whole day
Anthony can lead your ceremony, host your reception and keep the whole day on time, or simply take on the role you need most.
Wedding Celebrant
A warm, personal ceremony written around your story. Anthony leads non-religious and humanist ceremonies, cultural weddings, vow renewals, and helps with your vows, readings, poems and music for walking down the aisle.
Toastmaster & MC
A fully trained toastmaster who introduces your speeches, makes the announcements, keeps your guests engaged and adds a touch of elegance (and the odd smile) to every moment, from the receiving line to the first dance.
Wedding Day Coordinator
Your day, kept on track. Anthony builds the timeline with you, liaises with your suppliers, meets and greets guests and makes sure everything runs to plan, so you don't have to worry about a thing.

"I cannot recommend Anthony enough, he totally made our wedding day a success. He was organised from the moment we booked him, created timelines to understand exactly how we hoped the day would progress and touched base constantly to make sure we were happy… We had so many compliments about him following our wedding which is a true testament to how amazing he truly is!"

Your questions, answered
What does a wedding celebrant do?
A celebrant writes and leads your ceremony and can help as much or as little as you need, from your vows, readings and music to rehearsals and making sure the day runs smoothly. Unlike a planner, Anthony is there with you on the day, guiding your ceremony and your guests.
Can Anthony be our celebrant, toastmaster and coordinator on the same day?
Yes. Many couples book Anthony for all three, so one person leads the ceremony, hosts the reception and keeps the whole day on schedule. You can also book just the role you need.
Are your ceremonies religious?
Anthony leads non-religious and humanist ceremonies, as well as ceremonies for different cultural weddings, vows and renewals. If you'd like your ceremony to be legally binding too, he'll talk you through the options in your free consultation.
Where do you work?
Anthony is based in London, covering Central and South West London, and travels across the UK and beyond.
How much does it cost?
Anthony's wedding services start from £1,000 (as listed on Hitched). Every wedding is different, so message him on Hitched for a quote tailored to your day. Couples who book through Hitched get 5% off.
What happens before the wedding?
You'll meet to go over your programme, vows and timings, and Anthony will build a timeline so everyone knows what's happening and when.
Do you offer a free consultation?
Yes. Book a free 15-minute consultation by messaging Anthony on Hitched.
