Enda Harte is an award-winning wedding celebrant with Spiritual Ceremonies Ireland. A registered solemniser with the HSE and an officiant in Northern Ireland, he can legally marry you any day of the week, at a time you choose, in any part of Ireland!
Having worked with hundreds of happy couples over the years, Enda can deliver a warm, personal ceremony that reflects you both as a couple and as a family. He meets with each couple in person or online, gets to know them, explains in detail the legal process and ceremony options, and provides sample readings, poems and prayers, should you wish to include some.
With a Spiritual Ceremony, you have the option to include some religious elements if you wish, reflecting and respecting all religions, backgrounds and cultures, but you don't have to include any if it’s not for you. You will have full control over the content of your ceremony. Once Enda knows what you would like in your ceremony, he'll send a first draft of your wedding ceremony. You can let him know what you would like to add in or remove and, within a short space of time, the plan for your wedding ceremony will be completed.
There are a number of elements couples can choose from, such as the traditional unity candle, a remembrance candle to remember loved ones, Celtic Handfasting Ceremony, Rose Ceremony, Sand Ceremony, Love Letter/Time Capsule ceremony, flower-planting ceremony and much more. Enda will guide you through all your options, enabling you to choose the elements that best reflect you. His relaxed approach, coupled with his many years of experience alleviates any worries a couple may have about their wedding ceremony.
Enda’s aim is that every guest leaves the wedding ceremony remarking, "wasn’t that just lovely, wasn’t it very them!?” Where wedding guests get that sense of “very them” is from you sharing some of your story, the readings/poems and elements you choose, your vows, the music you pick, the people you involve and everything else that adds to the day to deliver that warm, welcoming wedding ceremony.
Enda hails from Sligo town, but travels nationwide to perform ceremonies. So whether you would like to have an Irish Castle Wedding Ceremony, say 'I do' on the Cliffs of Moher, have your happy ever after in a hotel or a blessing on a beach, Enda will be more than happy to help you make this happen!
