About
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.

We couldn't recommend Sarah enough.
Sarah is a fantastic celebrant. She made our ceremony. She is so sincere. She gets to know the couple and the relationship and she has a beautiful way of conveying whats special in relationships. She is so knowledgeable about all the different things that can be part of the ceremony if a couple wishes. We couldn't recommend Sarah enough.

Our family and friends were genuinely blown away by how heartfelt and unique it was.
We were so lucky to have Sarah as our celebrant. From the very beginning, she took the time to truly get to know us and understand our story. She was warm, thoughtful, and so responsive throughout the entire process. On the day, the ceremony felt so personal and intimate. Our family and friends were genuinely blown away by how heartfelt and unique it was. We couldn’t have imagined a more meaningful start to our married life. Thank you, Sarah, for creating something so special.

She is made for this job.
We were so happy with Sarah as our celebrant for our wedding this summer in Kilkenny. She made the process so easygoing and all our guests commented on how unique and personal our ceremony was. I can't recommend Sarah enough. She is made for this job.
