Iris Rose Ceremonies – Celebrant Services

Beautiful Burghley!

Jon and Zena planned their wedding at the Great Hall at Burghley House in Stamford. A wonderfully historic and grand venue that served as an excellent back drop for their wedding ceremony.

Burghley House is a grand sixteenth-century English country house near Stamford, LIncs. It is a leading example of the Elizabethan prodigy house built and still lived in by the senior branch of the Cecil family and is Grade 1 listed. The exterior largely retains its Elizabethan appearance, but most of the interiors date from remodelling before 1800.

Jon and Zena selected an elegant black and white theme for their guests to join in with. They also added a sand ceremony to their service to symbolise their union.

“Donna was simply fantastic. We met her for an hour or so and she listened intently to our story. When it came to subsequently writing her piece she absolutely nailed it ! Donna helped us plan our ceremony and had some fantastic ideas about how to make it just that little bit different. She is an excellent speaker who put us at ease whilst delivering an emotional, entertaining “service” to our family and friends. Thank you Donna for making the day such a special and memorable occasion.”
