Hannah Wroe Gill | Humanist Celebrant

When planning our wedding we knew that we wanted our ceremony to be unique and a highlight of our day. As both of us are not religious, we wanted to make sure that the ceremony was meaningful and gave our guests an insight into the journey that had led up to our wedding day. We were also keen to make sure our ceremony was entertaining and would be enjoyable for everyone in attendance.Jarrad and I really enjoyed the process of working with Hannah and found by sharing our experiences and seeing the ceremony come together heightened the excitement that we had for our big day. We especially liked how there were bits that Jarrad and I had written independently and were kept as a surprise until the actual ceremony. Hannah was able to take what we were trying to say and transform it into a ceremony that told our story and truly reflected who we are as a couple.Looking back on our wedding day, there is honestly not a single moment that we would change. We get to watch our full ceremony over and over on our wedding video and each time it makes us smile and laugh. From Hannah’s words, the readings to the well wishes it was utterly perfect and we would not have been able to have this perfect ceremony without Hannah and her guidance.’Charlie and Jarrad

We wanted an informal, relaxed and intimate wedding, away from the usual norm.Hannah came highly recommended by Richard at the Craven Arms and although it felt strange being so open with someone we didn’t know, in our first conversation Hannah couldn’t have made us feel more comfortable.Her methods and techniques for putting our ceremony together worked really well and by the time it came to our rehearsal it felt like Hannah had known us for years.On the big day there was lots of emotion and Hannah’s experience, calmness and total investment in our ceremony was obvious as she guided us through without a hitch.From filling our two kids with encouragement and confidence to read out their poems to bringing tears (and laughter!) to our guests Hannah was fantastic and we are so happy that she was part of our family story.Our day was everything we wanted it to be and more and having Hannah there to lead it was one of the best decisions we made.Thank you Hannah!Jodie and Simon x

Finding the right celebrant was a bit of an anxious process for us. We wanted to make sure that our ceremony was in capable hands and that our story and beliefs would be communicated with the right balance of tone and emotion. We were instantly reassured during our first phone call with Hannah. Her kind nature and commitment to crafting our perfect ceremony were clear to us from the start.Hannah guided us through the process of writing, reflecting and tailoring the wording of our ceremony. This was such a worthwhile process and gave added depth to our day.Hannah took all of the pressure off us. She made sure things ran like clockwork, liaised with our key family members and wedding vendors, and was a constant source of reassurance to us individually and as a couple.We cannot recommend Hannah enough. Thank you for bringing our day to life, writing such a beautiful ceremony and supporting us along the way!Claire and James

Our wedding ceremony couldn't and wouldn't have been as good without Hannah and many of our guests said it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever been to, which was lovely to hear. With great skill, and using our words, Hannah crafted what we might want to say to our guests and to each other during the ceremony itself. She cleverly wove together individual contributions from ourselves and others close to us to bring our love story to life. Hannah then led the ceremony superbly and with great attention to detail, ensuring that the plan for the day was executed perfectly. She is articulate, has great presence and the ability to capture everyone's attention.We feel so lucky to have found Hannah. She is a celebrant extraordinaire and we are grateful for the lovely bond we shared with her during a precious time for us as a couple. Brian and Julia ❤️

We loved the idea of having a bespoke and very personal ceremony on our wedding day. We had been to similar services in the past and felt that telling our story in front of all of our friends and family in our own words was extremely important to us.After some research online, we found Hannah and she was absolutely wonderful from the very beginning of the process, all the way through to the day itself. The level of detail she captured about our relationship really gave our ceremony the personal touch we wanted, and her thorough communication leading up to the wedding made us feel safe and comfortable that it would run as smoothly as possible. Her carefully chosen words and style of storytelling was lovely and so many of our guests commented on how unique, memorable, moving and joyful the ceremony was!We can’t thank Hannah enough for delivering the perfect ceremony for us - one where we were relaxed and fully able to be ourselves! We would definitely recommend.Thanks so so much Hannah!!!

If we could add more stars we would! It was the best choice we made other than deciding to get married in the first place. Hannah came very highly recommended yet exceeded those expectations ten fold.We didn't know what we really wanted for a ceremony other than it had to be bespoke for us and include family and friends.Hannah was very diligent and kind whilst working with us to tease out our stories and pull out of our heads the type of ceremony that was absolutely perfect for us - even though we didn't have a clue what we wanted at the time! She kind of worked some special magic to weave it all together whilst patiently keeping us on track. It is a real skill that she has. She was very attentive and brilliant at keeping in touch. We were not sure if we wanted readings, handfasting or other things however Hannah expertly guided us down the right track for us and encouraged us to go with our love of nature and yet did not make it contrived or twee.Our ceremony was heartfelt and all the guests were incredibly moved, most said it was one of the best ceremonies they had ever been to and perfect for us.On the day, Hannah worked superbly well with the venue and the staff, making sure every detail was perfect for the ceremony and engaging expertly with unexpected situations ...When I arrived, I had forgotten my beautiful bouquet and Hannah calmed my nerves and helped us to just go with it and we somehow managed to make a new bouquet via the venue manager, photographer and random nice bloke outside who was having a pint whilst out for a walk who was also a florist. Honestly, you couldn't have made it up and she helped pull the situation all together perfectly as we walked into the ceremony! Definitely a skill set, thinking on her feet!!It's also worth noting that the venue manager and staff had incredible respect and high regard for Hannah as they have worked together previously and her professionalism on the day really shone through in a calm and friendly manner.Honestly as we said right at the top of this review Hannah made it the best day ever !

Wow! Words are just not enough, well not my words anyway! Hannah took my inner most thoughts and crafted the most beautiful ceremony that captured the essence of my family and our feelings, emotions and everything in between!The whole process was so easy thanks to Hannah’s constant help and guidance, and after what felt like a lifetime planning (thanks covid) the ceremony was still more amazing than I could have ever dreamed.I will never use anyone else for any ceremonies or writings i need in the future!

Hannah was recommended to us by the manager of the venue we had chosen for our wedding, (the remarkable Cruck Barn in Appletreewick), and as soon as we made contact with Hannah, we felt we were in exceptionally good hands and that she would be the perfect choice for us. Hannah always made us feel very comfortable, she took the time to talk to us at first to get to know what we wanted, and we then went onto discuss the details of what Hannah could offer, which turned out to be perfect. Hannah guided us through the whole process of getting our thoughts and then crafting them into a beautifully worded ceremony with great skill, patience and experience. On the day itself, she was calmness personified, and gave us the most beautiful ceremony we could have wished for. We feel very fortunate to have found Hannah for our wedding, and would wholeheartedly recommend her.Graeme and Ellie x

I first contacted Hannah as I wanted a 'blessing' at our wedding which actually meant I wanted someone to say something while we got some pretty photos. As soon as I spoke to her I knew we would be getting so much more than that.The amount of work Hannah put in from the first point of contact was unbelievable! She sent Simon and I some questions to answer separately, but Hannah was on hand to help out at any time.We were sure we didn't want a deep and romantic ceremony, I was initially nervous about telling Hannah about this but she was so happy I did and she made the ceremony perfect for us. Our main priority was to have our 2 children Holly and Bobby involved, Hannah incorporated them into the ceremony so well, our daughter delivered the rings and did a reading.All of our guests commented on how lovely the Your Three Days service was, so personal, so unique, so inclusive of the whole family. Hannah certainly made our day so wonderful, she was worth every penny and we can't thank her enough.Rachel, Simon, Holly and Bobby x
