5.0 out of 5 stars from 17 ratings
  • A must-listen for any aspiring celebrants

    I have loved every minute of this podcast. As a new celebrant about to embark on my journey, it’s been an invaluable resource - but I think it would also be very useful for experienced celebrants too. Laura is an excellent host; down to earth, personable, open, honest and friendly. She makes you feel like you’re in the room with her (and her guests) just having a chat. So it’s super enjoyable to listen to as well as informative. 5 stars - would give it 10 if I could. Please do another series!

The day to day breakdown of how she operates her Celebrancy business was also very helpful, and a gre... more
