The
Celebrant is the international journal that was
regarded to be the premier professional journal for
celebrants. It has now ceased print publication, though

article for any celebrant who claims to create
ceremonies based on the client's beliefs."

In this article I discuss weddings as culturally
loaded events shaped by multi-layered and multifaceted
cultural influences and look at the subtle messages
conveyed by the ceremony. Class Culture, Christian
Culture, Consumer Culture, and Celebrity Culture are
all in play.
The Celebrant, Issue 12, June 2022, pp 6-17
In this article I explore the three types of consent
that are relevant to getting married and wedding
ceremonies: Real Consent, Informed Consent, and
Intimate Consent and how each of these plays out in
the context of the ceremony to ensure it is both legal
and ethical.

and Instagram posts by the Editor, Veronika
Robinson, said this about this article: "Without
doubt, this is one of the most important
topics of all for celebrants, and one not
covered by training schools with any of the
depth and insight this author has shown. If
you think you know what consent means, I can
assure you that you don't unless you've read
(understood and integrated) this. Your
celebrant work will change if you bring this
level of awareness into your practice."
Infringement of your moral rights can have a
devastating impact on your reputation. Updated to
include comments about the use of artificial

Copyright is an economic right designed to protect
the earning capacity of the creator of a work. The
most likely ways in which someone might infringe a
celebrant's copyright would be by downloading and
uploading to their own website, republishing in any
form, adapting and using or publishing or performing
the "work" in a public space without having your
permission to do so. Updated to include comments about
the use of artificial intelligence writing tools

"In this excellent article by
@jennifercraminclusivecelebrant about Setting
Celebrant Fees in a Regulated Environment you can get
a good sense of the restrictions and responsibilities
that UK celebrants will work under if the desired laws
come into being. It is wise for us to go into this
with eyes wide open" - Veronika Robinson
