How Much Does A Civil Celebrant Cost?

Understanding how much a Civil Celebrant costs is very important and usually is the first thing to think about when planning or organising a Civil Celebrant for your chosen ceremony (Wedding, Funeral, Vow Renewal, Naming Ceremony etc). Civil Celebrant fees vary due to a number of different reasons; where the ceremony will take place, what time of year the ceremony will take place & what service you are looking to book.

Wedding Costs

Wedding Civil Celebrants are usually more expensive than any other ceremony, this is usually because of their popularity and also the Civil Celebrant will spend weeks and weeks with the couple/customer to answer any questions or to run through the setup of the day & structure of the ceremony. Usually Wedding Celebrant Fees range from £550 to £750, depending on which region you wish to have your Wedding ceremony. 

Funeral Costs

For Funerals, these are usually a bit cheaper than Weddings and their starting price is estimated around £190 per ceremony. As for Weddings the estimated cost for a Wedding Celebrant is usually around £550 to £650 depending on where you are located. 

Vow Renewal & Naming Ceremony Costs

As for Vow Renewal & Naming Ceremony Civil Celebrants, their costs are usually a little more than a Funeral Civil Celebrant but cheaper than a Wedding Civil Celebrant. Usually starting from £250 – £450, depending on where the ceremony is taking place and what time of year you wish to have your ceremony. 

It is important to do as much research as possible before booking a Civil Celebrant, especially if you are looking to budget for your ceremony. Understanding how much each item/service will cost you, is a good way of understanding how much you are looking to spend. I would suggest creating a spreadsheet and collect every bit of detail from a number of different Civil Celebrants, this will give you a few options on who to choose. Before meeting a Civil Celebrant, I would make sure that you have a budget in mind and make sure that the Celebrant fees fit into your costs to ensure that everything is affordable. This is the same for all ceremonies, such as; Weddings, Funerals, Vow Renewals, Naming Ceremonies and more.
