Rev. Barbara Allen

The bespoke ceremonies I create, heart to hearts with you both, reflect your vision for your wedding day – honouring love, joy and devotion. I am with you every step of the way, sharing the excitement and gently guiding. I can legally solemnise your wedding in the venue of your choice in one single, monumental event. We will create together a memorable moment in time – the foundation of your married life.

I am an ordained Interfaith Minister and I am part of the One World Minister group here in Ireland. My ceremonies and services are strictly non-denominational, which gives me the opportunity to create ceremonies which cater to all faiths and none. In the changing climate of Irish Society the guests at a wedding can vary from having strong religious beliefs to having no particular faith or no beliefs whatsoever.

The beauty of an Interfaith non-denominational ceremony is that it is fully inclusive.

All are represented which makes for an easier process for you, the couple. As a Minister, I am on the General Register for marriages, which means we can sign the register and tie up the legal details at the ceremony in the hotel or forest or wherever you choose to hold the ceremony. I can guide you through all the requirements and will be available for all calls and any questions leading up to your wedding day.

I will supply a draft ceremony for your approval a number of weeks before the ceremony so that you can take time to include anything new and make any changes necessary. It is an exciting and fun-filled process. My aim is to create a calm and loving atmosphere for your ceremony – informal, while still honouring the gravity of the commitment you make to each other. Please contact me and allow me to share this wonderful journey with you.
