I am a Munster based Humanist Celebrant. Hailing from Kilkenny, I have made Cork my home for over 15 years with my wife Louise, and two lurchers. I sing with Choral Con Fusion and play ukulele with Shandon Ukulele Ensemble. I am a vegan, love gardening and am an active member of the Cork Humanist group. Having studied Theology in college, I taught for 17 years in a secondary school in Dublin, followed by 10 years in Adult Education in Cork. Today, I celebrate life’s milestones as a Humanist Celebrant accredited by the Humanist Association. As a Humanist celebrant, I specialize in creating non-religious, legal wedding ceremonies that center on your unique love story and shared values. Unlike traditional religious ceremonies, a Humanist wedding with me is truly personal and can take place at a time convenient for you. I craft tailored ceremonies that reflect your journey, making your celebration meaningful and inclusive. In your ceremony, we can include readings, music, and personal vows that genuinely reflect who you are as a couple. You may choose to incorporate symbolic rituals like Celtic Hand Fasting, Drinking from a Quaich, or a Sand Ceremony to represent your new union. I also welcome including children, family members, friends, and even pets to make it a warm, joyful celebration. If you want to celebrate your love story your way, I’m here to help make it happen. Let’s create a ceremony that truly reflects your values and your love. Contact me now if you’d like a chat.

Martin & Ellis' Wedding

We honestly can’t thank Sarah enough for the amazing ceremony she created for our wedding at BlackRock Castle in April 2026. From our first meeting with they made everything feel so easy and personal, and it genuinely felt like they cared about getting to know us properly as a couple. The ceremony was exactly what we wanted, warm, relaxed, funny in all the right places, and really meaningful. Our families commented afterwards on how lovely Sarah was and how personal the whole ceremony felt. One of our favourite parts was how Sarah included our “Three Things” so naturally into the script. It made the ceremony feel completely like us, and it’s something we’ll always remember. Sarah brought such a calm and lovely energy to the day and we’re so grateful she was part of it. We would highly recommend her in a heartbeat to any couple looking for someone genuine, thoughtful, and just really lovely to work with. Thank you again Sarah, we’re so glad you were part of our big day!
