Where Expertise Flourishes and Connections Thrive

Guild Certified Members

Wedding & Naming Celebrant

After 20 years teaching primary school, becoming a celebrant felt like coming home—but I needed the validation and community The Guild provides. Now I command premium fees with total confidence and never have to explain what a 'proper' celebrant actually does.

Guild Certified Members

Celebrant

The insurance package alone saves me £50 per month compared to my previous provider. But the real value is the peace of mind—knowing I have experts vetting these services rather than trying to figure it all out myself.

Funeral Celebrant

The Hive alone is worth the membership fee. Having 24/7 access to experienced celebrants when you're stuck on a ceremony design or contract question is absolutely priceless—especially when you're working on a tight deadline at midnight!

Wedding Celebrant

Since upgrading to Professional tier, I've doubled my average fee and I'm booked 9 months in advance. The international directory listings opened doors to destination weddings I never thought possible for someone based in a small Welsh town.
