Celebrant-led Weddings
If you’re looking for an experienced Kent Wedding Celebrant for your Wedding Ceremony Celebration, Wedding Blessing or Vow Renewal then you’re in the right place! Have a good look around, and do get in touch if you think we’d be a good fit – we’d love to help create unforgettable memories for your special day.
I’m Katie Keen, and joined by Jo Olagboyega, we are a small but perfectly formed team dedicated to ensuring every detail of your ceremony reflects your unique love story. Based between Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells, with Jo residing in Ashford, we proudly cover the entire county of Kent and are more than happy to travel further afield to accommodate your vision. As a highly sought-after Kent Wedding Celebrant since 2013, I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of couples celebrate their love with a bespoke, personalised wedding ceremony. Jo lends her support on busy weekends, ensuring we can be in two places at once to deliver seamless experiences for multiple couples. Our partnership allows us to share the joy of officiating weddings while giving our clients the personal touch they absolutely deserve.
Why Choose a Celebrant?
There are many reasons for needing the services of a professional Celebrant. It could be that you’re getting married at home, having a marquee wedding, or somewhere unlicensed like a woodland or festival site. Perhaps your wedding plans include a grander setting such as a castle, country house, or stately home. You might even be an international couple returning to the UK for a wedding amongst family and friends, eager to unite your diverse backgrounds in a beautiful ceremony. Beautifully tailored Celebrant-led wedding ceremonies are the perfect option for modern couples as they offer much more flexibility on content and location compared to traditional ceremonies. We pride ourselves on crafting ceremonies that truly reflect your personalities and values, distinguishing them from a registrar-led civil service, allowing you the freedom to express yourselves authentically.

As Wedding Celebrants in Kent we frequently take ceremonies in our local counties of Sussex, Surrey and Essex. We also love to officiate at the many beautiful London wedding venues you may be considering. And of course we absolutely adore being asked to head a bit further away for ‘destination weddings’ in The Cotswolds, Hampshire, Hertfordshire and in the Netherlands.
Katie features on E4’s Married at First Sight UK: she appeared in 2025 hitching Julia-Ruth and Divarni, as well as as the opening episode of the 2024 intake marrying Casper & Emma. As well as officiating Erica & Jordan’s wedding in 2023; and marrying Morag & Luke in 2021. TV weddings are great PR, but what we really love is sharing authentic love in joyful wedding ceremonies for real couples who have a beautiful story to tell.
Celebrant-led weddings are currently trending here in the UK (according to The Hitched Wedding Trends Report ). This means that experienced Kent Wedding Celebrants like us are in even more demand to perform customised and bespoke ceremonies. More and more modern couples want their wedding ceremony to reflect their personalities, values and vision for the day. And what better way to kick off those celebrations than with a Celebrant-led wedding ceremony? Here’s what Tess and Tom had to say about theirs:
“We couldn’t have wished for a more dreamy ceremony in the woods.
Katie, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for really getting to know us, and our love.
You curated the most meaningful and personal ceremony that made us laugh and cry.
Words and vows we’ll remember for ever.”
I’ve loved my role as a Kent Wedding Celebrant for the past 13 years and I’ve never been busier. In 2026, I’m delighted to say that my Associate Celebrant Jo will be available for a limited number of dates!
