When I arrive at a venue on a wedding day, it is a hive of activity, with suppliers setting up, venue staff organising things and often there are some very early guests, but I just love this.
This wedding was always set to be a corker of a celebration, and my couple were completely dedicated to making their day as personal as possible, and boy did we do just that!
As soon as I chatted to this couple I knew they were my kind of people (especially when the bride shares a taste for my favourite ginger wine!).
Hi, I am Jenny Knight, a creative and modern Independent celebrant. I have over 20 years of experience in the wedding industry, and I absolutely love what I do!
I love working with all of my venues but being able to step foot back into the setting where I got married myself, is a whole different ball game!

What a spectacular day it was at High Billinghurst Farm today! The sun shone the whole day, and the skies were clear and blue for the beautiful wedding of Mark and Jess.
I am super lucky that I get to witness some incredible ceremony set-ups and some amazing decor, but recently I have seen a real surge in the demand for artificial floral arrangements and 'alternative' bouquets too.

As we embark on a new wedding season, I have been meeting with lots of my couples and their families to talk through the details for their ceremony, and I just love finding out all about the rest of their big day plans!
So what is a 'Handfasting'? Well essentially, it is a binding of the hands that originates from an ancient Celtic tradition, and is where the popular terms "Tying the knot" and "Bound in Matrimony" derive from.
What better way to start our season than with a super wedding for a fabulous couple, and at an amazing venue!
