Celebrant Wedding Ceremonies
Your wedding day should be as unique and unforgettable as your love story.
At Chameleon Ceremonies, I create bold, personal ceremonies for couples who live outside the mainstream – whether you’re goth, punk, rockabilly, or just beautifully unconventional.
As an alternative wedding celebrant, I work with you to design a one-of-a-kind ceremony that reflects your style, story, and spirit. From dark romance to vintage rebellion, you can include custom vows, gothic poetry, unity rituals, your favourite music, or themed elements that truly speak to you.
With only one ceremony booked per day, I give every couple my full focus and creativity.
Whether it’s a forest handfasting, a graveyard vow exchange, or a rockabilly beach wedding, your ceremony will be completely yours.
No rules. No limits. Just love, your way.

Handfasting ceremonies
Handfasting is an ancient Celtic, Pagan, Viking and Norse wedding custom, a historical term for betrothal or wedding by joining hands.
Traditionally, the term ‘handfasting’ refers to the ritual of handshaking to seal a contract, an agreement to live together as a couple.
A handfasting ceremony would be performed at sunrise or sunset where both the sun and the moon are present in the joining of the two lovers.
Other traditional ceremonies that can be incorporated include wine/mead ceremonies or unity candle ceremonies.
In modern practices, it is the act of wrapping a braided long length of cord or ribbon around the couples right hand to signify their bond or union the eternal joining of two people.
Handfasting can be a stand-alone ceremony, as an alternative to a marriage ceremony or can be integrated into a wedding, engagement, commitment, renewal of vows and naming ceremonies and is a great way to include your family, children and friends.
Handfasting can be performed in any location, however, most couples prefer a handfasting ceremony to be performed outdoors.
As an alternative celebrant, I write and perform a personal handfasting ceremony just for you.

Unity Ceremonies
A unity ceremony is a symbolic ritual or element which can be incorporated into any ceremony for something intimate and memorable.
Unity ceremonies can be adapted for any occasion and requirement, and are a great way to incorporate family and friends.
Some popular unity ceremonies are;
Unity Candle Ceremony
The merging of two flames, lighting a new flame, representing the union of two people or the merging of two families.

This is the tasting of the bitter and the sweet. A taste of dark chocolate for the bitter and the taste of champagne for the sweetness represents the trials and tribulations of your relationship together.
