Kelham Island Museum Humanist Wedding | Mai + Martyn
Mai and Martyn chose a humanist wedding ceremony for their Kelham Island Museum wedding because they wanted theirs to be a ceremony that they, their family and friends could contribute to, tailor made for them.
Our ‘Story so far’ section began therefore with the words of the two matchmakers who engineered their meeting, way back in their beginning, and their ceremony closed with a well-wishing written with the words of nominated loved ones. In between was all Martyn and Mai, in their own words, the perfect balance between their own story and their family and friends’ perspectives.
It was a true reflection of their lives and their love, which is just what they wanted for their day.
‘Choosing a Humanist ceremony was the first step in creating our perfect day. Choosing Hannah to be our Humanist Celebrant – the icing on the cake!
From start to finish, Hannah was absolutely charming and really tapped in on the ‘feel’ we were hoping to achieve. Her beautiful drafts were spot on to begin with, and little tweaks along the way only added to the fantastically emotional and fitting ceremony that she expertly word-smithed. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house we hear.
Both myself and Martyn were blown away at how different and gorgeous our wedding was and summed up exactly how we felt about each other. Every one of our guests loved the experience and it was so nice for them to be able to contribute too, to make this a truly personal celebration.
Hannah also really helped soothe any nerves we had by giving us a call the day before the wedding and I really appreciated her sending supportive texts to me in my hour of need! Her words of wisdom on my fear of blubbing at the first few words truly were worth their weight in gold – I managed to speak!
We’re now hoping that we’ll be lucky enough to see Hannah again for a naming day! :)) Thank you so very much for making it a day to remember. Xxx’
