Humanist Weddings in Eryri / Snowdonia, North Wales


The Most Personal, Intimate Ceremonies You'll Ever Witness

Picture this: You're standing on a mountain in Eryri as the mist rolls back across the valley. Or barefoot on the sand on one of Anglesey's glorious beaches. Or beneath a canopy of ancient oaks in the Gwydir woodland, just the two of you and the people who mean the world to you. And every single word being spoken is about you. Your story. Your love. Your ceremony.


That's what I get to do. I'm Alex, The Snowdonia Celebrant—and creating personalised wedding ceremonies for wild hearts, hopeless romantics, and adventurous souls across North Wales is genuinely the best job in the world.


Dana & Chris eloped from Canada and chose a beautiful, initmate elopement ceremony at the foot of Snowdon.

So, what exactly is a humanist ceremony?

Humanism is a philosophy built on human experience, compassion, and connection, with no religious doctrine attached. A humanist wedding ceremony puts the two of you front and centre. A ceremony crafted entirely around your relationship, your values, and the story only you two could tell.


When you book me as your celebrant, we spend real time together: chatting, laughing, and getting properly acquainted so I can learn what makes you you. What were you doing when you first met? The silly in-jokes. The moment you both knew. I weave it all into something that will make you and your guests lean forward and feel the moment.



How personal can it really get?

As personal as you wish. Write your own vows. Include your children, your dogs, your late grandmother's favourite poem. Choose a Celtic handfasting — a beautiful, ancient tradition with deep roots right here in Wales. Add a unity ritual. Have a friend perform a reading. Pick any music you love, from Fleetwood Mac to Florence and the Machine.


And because I work across some of the most extraordinary landscapes in the UK, you're not limited to a function room and a PA system. Your ceremony can happen anywhere. A mountaintop. A hidden cove on Anglesey. A woodland clearing. A courtyard at dusk. If you can dream it, let's talk about it.


Ready to say your vows somewhere unforgettable?

North Wales is home to some of the most breathtaking ceremony locations on the planet, and I know every hidden gem.


Whether you're dreaming of an intimate elopement on a Snowdonia ridgeline, a micro-wedding in an ancient woodland, or a full celebration with all your favourite people at a stunning North Wales venue, I'd love to be part of it.


No pressure, just a lovely conversation about your plans and whether we're a good fit for each other.
