Ceremonies with soul

A ceremony that tells your story.

Meaningful symbolic ceremonies, so the moment you say “yes” belongs only to you.

Get in touch

Love deserves to be celebrated in your own words.

A symbolic ceremony doesn’t follow a fixed script. It is written from who you are: how you met, what makes you laugh, what you promise each other.

From trembling hands to tears and smiles, I guide every moment so that you, and everyone with you, live it fully and never forget it.

In three languages The ceremony can be held in English, Portuguese or Spanish, or blend the languages of both your families.

Ceremonies

Wedding

A ceremony tailored to every detail, with rituals, readings and vows you choose. Wherever you dreamed of: beach, estate, garden or mountain.

Vow renewal

Years later, the same promises carry a new weight. A celebration of the road you have travelled, and a chance to say “yes” again.

Naming ceremony

A ceremony to welcome a new member of the family, with guardians, promises and the people who matter most.

How it works

  1. 01

    We talk

    A first, no-commitment conversation to get to know each other and hear what you have in mind.

  2. 02

    I learn your story

    A questionnaire and a meeting where you tell me about your journey, your details and how you want it to feel.

  3. 03

    I write the ceremony

    A one-of-a-kind script, with rituals and moments made for you. We refine it together until it is just right.

  4. 04

    The big day

    I arrive early, coordinate the entrance with your event team and lead the ceremony from start to finish.

“Fill your ceremony with meaning: the beginning of your happily ever after.”

Frequently asked questions

Is a symbolic ceremony legally binding?

No. In Portugal, a legally recognised marriage is registered at the Civil Registry. Many couples handle that with a simple registry visit and hold the real celebration at the symbolic ceremony.

How far in advance should we book?

Ideally 6 to 12 months ahead, especially for dates between May and October. If your date is sooner, get in touch anyway.

Do you hold ceremonies abroad or in other languages?

The ceremony can be in English, Portuguese or Spanish. For venues outside Portugal, get in touch and we’ll work it out together.

How much does it cost?

Every ceremony is different. Send me your date, venue and type of ceremony and I’ll reply with a proposal.
