Unleash the Fun: Make Your Wedding or Elopement Ceremony Unforgettable!

Your wedding or elopement ceremony is not just a formal event; it's a celebration of love, joy, and the beginning of a new adventure. If you're dreaming of a ceremony that radiates with fun and laughter, you've come to the right place!


As an experienced UK wedding celebrant based on the edge of Snowdonia, I specialize in crafting unique and memorable ceremonies that will leave you and your guests with hearts full of joy.


The ceremonies I create can be humanist, faith based or mixed-faith. You have complete choice in every element and I will carefully work with you to create a fun, inclusive ceremony that truly reflects you!


In this blog post, I'll share some exciting ideas to make your wedding or elopement ceremony in Snowdonia, Conwy, Gwynedd, or Anglesey an absolute blast!


Embrace the Scenic Beauty of North Wales:

North Wales, and in particular Anglesey and Snowdonia, are blessed with breath-taking landscapes, from majestic mountains to picturesque coastlines. Incorporate natural beauty into your ceremony by choosing an outdoor venue.


Just imagine exchanging vows against a backdrop of rolling hills or saying "I do" with the sound of crashing waves in the distance. These stunning landscapes will not only create a magical ambience but also provide ample opportunities for beautiful wedding photos.

2. Add Personal Touches to Your Ceremony:

Injecting your personalities into the ceremony is key to making it fun and memorable. Consider creating a custom aisle runner with quirky designs or inside jokes that reflect your journey as a couple. I often include a ceremony toast with the ceremony, so the celebration starts straight away!


Surprise your guests with personalised wedding favours that showcase your shared interests, like mini hiking boots keychains or locally sourced goodies. These thoughtful touches will make your ceremony truly unique and leave everyone smiling.



3. Get Creative with Your Wedding Vows:

Traditional wedding vows are beautiful, but why not add a touch of fun and humour to your promises? Write your vows to reflect your journey as a couple, including funny anecdotes and shared adventures. This will not only bring laughter and joy to your ceremony but also remind everyone of the special bond you share.


If you are feeling daring you can even write each others wedding vows, only to be revealed on the day itself! Of course, these can be humorous and followed by your own heartfelt promises to one another!

Handwrite your Vows into a book on the morning of your wedding, then they can be kept as a memento/reminder of your wedding day. Capture by @love.adventure.weddings

4. Include Interactive Elements:

Engage your guests and make them an active part of your ceremony. Consider incorporating a "ring warming" ritual, where your wedding bands are passed around among guests, who can offer their blessings and well wishes. This heart warming tradition ensures that the love and positive energy of your loved ones are infused into your rings, symbolizing their support and involvement in your journey.


Consider a wedding sing a long. Some great songs that will get the party started include:

  1. “So Happy Together,” by the Turtles

  2. “Ain't No Mountain High Enough,” by Marvin Gaye

  3. “Brown Eyed Girl,” by Van Morrison

  4. “That's Amore,” by Dean Martin

  5. “Don't Stop Believin',” by Journey

  6. “Lean on Me,” by Bill Withers

  7. “Marry You,” by Bruno Mars

Carol and Emlyn chose a singalong to "When I'm 94 (64)" by the Beatles to get the party started during their ceremony at The Quay Hotel in Deganwy.

5. Surprise Ceremony Entertainment:

Who doesn't love surprises? Elevate the fun factor by incorporating unexpected entertainment into your ceremony. Think about surprising your guests with a lively flash mob, a live band playing your favourite songs, or a professional dance performance. These unexpected moments will create an electric atmosphere, ensuring that your wedding or elopement ceremony is talked about for years to come.


Your wedding or elopement ceremony should be a celebration filled with laughter, joy, and unforgettable moments. By embracing the natural beauty, adding personal touches, getting creative with vows, including interactive elements, and surprising your guests with entertainment, you can create a truly fun-filled and remarkable ceremony.


As an experienced wedding celebrant, I am here to help you craft a ceremony that perfectly reflects your unique love story and leaves you with cherished memories. Contact me today to begin planning your dream wedding or elopement ceremony in the stunning landscapes of North Wales!
