DMG Ceremonies’ is a modern Celebrant business in South Wales, U.K.

Donna Marie collaborates closely with her clients to design a totally personalised, handwritten scripted ceremony.  She strongly believes that the ‘one style fits all’ or an ‘off the peg’ ceremony needs updating and instead she creates a ceremony that captures your individual story, journey, love and commitment, in a way that reflects your values, customs and cultures.

You have so many other choices when planning your wedding, from the catering, to the flowers, to the colour scheme to the stationary. You may not have been aware that you can also plan who will officiate your ceremony too. Donna is passionate about getting to know you and your vision for your day because the ceremony is also an important part of your special day. A ceremony led by Donna Marie allows you to connect with the ceremony officiant and have the confidence that she will work with you, to understand your ideas and provide the best wedding ceremony just for you.

You may wish to have a ‘fusion’ ceremony with some traditional, religious or spiritual elements coupled with modern or bespoke elements too.

Some of the tailored aspects of a DMG ceremony  include:

A ceremony at a special place… in a marquee, by a lake, in a barn, in your garden, in the woodlands, in your favourite pub, on a beach or in a vineyard, infact anywhere as no venue license is required.

A ceremony at a time you want… sunrise, morning, afternoon, sunset or an evening under the stars.

A ceremony written just for you… personalised vows, readings, poetry and music.

A ceremony that involves the most important people to you… friends, family and even your pets.

Your ceremony staging and layout … one aisle or two? Facing a picturesque view or have your guests in circles around you.

You may even have a theme too… ethical, boho, festival, whimsical, eco, or enchanted forest.

A ceremony with a unity element added…  a candle, handfasting, crowning, salt, wine, cocktail blending or a planting ceremony.

There may be some of you, unfortunately, that have received a call or email to say your wedding, civil partnership or elopement is cancelled. All the time spent planning, all those feelings of excitement and anticipation are NOT lost. You can still celebrate and have your ceremony. Donna Marie is adapting to these current challenges. The usual consultations over ‘coffee and cake’ are now transforming into online ‘ZOOM’ meetings. Some couples are wishing to celebrate their original wedding date, so ‘virtual wedding affirmation ceremonies’ can be arranged too. Other couples are wishing to continue with their wedding nuptials, on their original date, and so opting for the alternative ‘get wed online’ option. You may be experiencing difficulties in booking a Registrar, with the postponement of others taking up new booking dates and Registrars unable to take any bookings for the foreseeable future. If you check availability with Donna Marie you can continue to plan the wedding of your dreams, beyond the current situation, into 2021 and beyond.

After all, as DMG Ceremonies’ motto expresses: it is ‘Your Day, Your Ceremony, Your Way!
