Beach Wedding Celebrant
Relaxed, joyful ceremonies by the sea, barefoot optional, smiles guaranteed
Your Beach Wedding Celebrant on the South Coast
Hi, I’m Jodie, an independent celebrant based in Hampshire - and a huge fan of beach weddings.
There’s just something about the sea air, open skies, and slightly chaotic wind that makes seaside ceremonies feel alive, fun and wonderfully relaxed.
If you’re dreaming of saying your vows with the waves behind you, sand beneath your feet, and maybe a seagull giving its opinion in the background, you’re in the right place.
Why get married on the beach?
Beach weddings are:
🤍 Naturally romantic
🤍 Simple yet stunning
🤍 Perfect for relaxed, joyful ceremonies
🤍 Great for guests who love a mini sea breeze adventure
🤍 Ideal for couples who want a ceremony that feels like them, not tradition
And with a celebrant, you can hold your ceremony on any beach, not just “licensed areas.”
Sunset, sunrise, summer, spring - even a crisp autumn beach can be stunning.
What your beach ceremony can include
I can help you build a ceremony that suits the location perfectly:
🤍 Sea-themed readings
🤍 Sand pouring rituals
🤍 Shell ring warming
🤍 Nautical touches (tasteful, not pirate themed…unless you arrr’ into that)
🤍 Warm, humorous storytelling
🤍 Relaxed pacing that fits with the gentle chaos of seaside breezes
We’ll also plan for wind, waves, and the occasional brave dog with an interest in the best man!
