Welcome to Paula's Petal Celebrancy
I am a fully-qualified Celebrant providing wedding & funeral services, as well as baby naming, vow renewals and more.
With a love for vintage elegance, I bring a touch of classic romance to modern love stories. My wedding ceremonies capture the essence of timeless, vintage charm while staying relevant to today's couples. I love to get to know couples to understand all about them, their lives and their story, and create a ceremony that sparkles and lets their love shine through. Developing a bespoke ceremony just for you, means that every 'I do' is special and unique, adding an unforgettable layer to your special day.
I provide funeral ceremonies that bring comfort and have a personalised touch. I create and lead a ceremony with empathy, creating a meaningful tribute that reflects the unique life of the departed and provides solace to grieving family and friends.
Based in Tunbridge Wells, I work throughout Kent, East Sussex and the wider South East area, and I am qualified as a professional Civil Celebrant through Regent Academy. It would be a privilege to chat through what you're looking for - I can't wait to hear from you soon!
with love,

My Services
As a qualified celebrant, I create bespoke ceremonies for non-religious weddings, as well as vow renewals, baby naming ceremonies and funerals, throughout Kent, East Sussex and the South East.
I am happy to talk through your individual event so you can learn about how I can provide services for your ceremony, so get in touch via email or the contact form to find out more.
Weddings
I want couples to have a relaxed and enjoyable experience, from the moment they start planning their ceremony to the big day itself. Your celebration should be filled with genuine smiles, laughter and be all about creating beautiful memories.
I take pride in helping weddings run smoothly with a beautifully planned ceremony, so that you can focus on what's important - having the best day of your lives!
Step 1 is always to informally get to know you over the phone or in person - I am happy to travel to your home or a venue of your choice. I will ask lots of questions to get a feeling for the style of ceremony you're looking for, and most importantly to get to know you and your love story. We will discuss any poems, readings or music that you'd like to include, and I can recommend where you can look for inspiration!
I will always ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the 'formal bits', i.e. the parts that need to be included legally, and will be very happy to answer any queries you might have.
I enjoy working collaboratively with clients to ensure that every little detail is covered in what can be a stressful time! The end result is a personal, poignant ceremony designed especially for you.
Funerals
With a deep commitment to honouring the unique lives of those who have passed, I craft meaningful and heartfelt ceremonies that go beyond tradition.
I specialise in creating a personalised atmosphere, weaving together memories and anecdotes to form a ceremony that truly reflects their individuality.
Through empathetic guidance, I strive to bring comfort and solace to grieving families, ensuring a dignified and fitting tribute that resonates with the emotions and cherished memories of all in attendance. I will carefully and thoughtfully create a fitting ceremony for your loved one in a way that is both touching and memorable.
"Paula is an amazingly kind, calm person who speaks confidently and knowledgeably with wonderful empathy... hugely recommended."
