Natasha & Claire
What will I get at the end of it?
A comprehensive understanding of what it takes to be a celebrant and whether you have indeed got what it takes! You'll also take away lots of great advice and more clarity around becoming a celebrant. For many people who've joined our previous workshops, this was where they took their first steps towards their celebrant careers. From becoming our trainees, successfully graduating and getting certified and then on to being working celebrants. Our Celebrants Collective trained celebrants can be found in the UK, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Switzerland and even in the USA and Canada.
Wedding Celebrant - Vim Ziyambe, UK
The Celebrants Collective offer first class celebrant courses that have been created to get you ready for the real world of celebrancy and coupled with their ongoing lifetime support even after graduation, help to nurture you into having a bright, shining, fruitful celebrant career. I’ve gone away thinking and feeling like I’m ready to take on the world because what I’ve learned and it’s been fun and engaging the whole way through. I can’t recommend this course enough to anyone. I will forever be grateful to Natasha and Claire.
Wedding & Funeral Celebrant - Laura Barnes, UK
I cannot recommend the Celebrants Collective enough. I really enjoyed the courses, learnt a lot about how to be a celebrant as well as how to run my own business. The training is informative and in easy bite-sized modules. The reference material is helpful. The weekly tutorials are fantastic, a great opportunity to learn from the tutors and fellow trainees. I feel welcomed into a family of supportive and like-minded people and have loved every minute of it!
Sarah Bentley - Wedding Celebrant, UK
I'd been wanting to do train as a celebrant for years but never found a training collective that really resonated until I found Claire and Natasha. Their website and messaging resonated with me. They talked about inclusion and diversity which is really important to me. Natasha and Claire's approach just spoke to me on so many levels and so I signed up instantly! I was very impressed with the structuring of the course and the breath of topics covered. It really prepares you for life as a real-life working celebrant of the future rather than the past. I felt really ready to get started once I'd completed it. It's such an honour and privilege to create ceremony for such special milestones in people's lives.

Important note: LEGAL WEDDING CEREMONIES - In England and Wales, and lots of other European countries, independent wedding celebrants do not have the power to legally marry couples. Couples have a short legal ceremony with a registrar or equivalent, and then most often, on a completely different day, they then celebrate their marriage with a personal ceremony led by a wedding celebrant.
Claire based in West Sussex (England) and Natasha based in Malaga (Spain) are both wedding celebrants. The ceremonies that they carry out do not make their couples legally married.
Please make sure that you understand the rules and requirements for your own country regarding legal marriages. Even if your country allows celebrants to have legal marriage powers, you can still work as an independent celebrant, as not all couples require a legal ceremony. Others prefer to have their legal ceremony at a different time/day/location to their personal wedding ceremony.
Our courses are focused on the art of ceremony. How to work with couples to create a personal ceremony for them and how to write and lead that ceremony on the day. As well as understanding the entire work process from start to finish, the ceremony choreography and importantly, the business side of being a celebrant too. You can read more about our wedding course here and funeral course here.
Please note that this training DOES NOT substitute actual training to be a celebrant, nor does it give you any type of celebrant certification or qualification.
