About me
Hello! I'm Catríona Cullen and I am an Entheos Family Celebrant, living in Bray Co Wicklow.
I am registered to solemnise, celebrate and legally carry out weddings here in Ireland, adhering to the legal stipulations as outlined by the overseeing body; see HSE for more details on legal requirements for marriage in Ireland and to book a marriage notification appointment with the registrar.
I am also a celebrant for Vow Renewals, Commitments, Naming Ceremonies, Family Affirmation Ceremonies, and all Family or Individual occasions.
I love Celebration and connecting with people, sharing stories and adding to the layers of family and community all around us.
For me, it's a joy to weave individual and couple's stories with the age-old custom of celebration and ceremony where we take time out to mark life events and celebrate with family and friends.
I love putting a service or ceremony together, spending time considering the framework and content for each couple or individual, weaving details and preferences that the client or couple outline into the overall ceremony structure.
For weddings, the couple can have as much or as little input as they prefer; I have great ideas so it will all be taken care of and they can relax and enjoy a beautiful ceremony on their special day.
I speak English, Irish, French, some Spanish and am learning a little Japanese.
In my personal life, I love to spend time with friends and family, to travel, see films, attend theatre, read, hike and garden.
I am quite curious by nature and relish finding solutions and new ways of doing things.
I adore being out enjoying nature and exploring new places. I love coastal paths and walks and generally being outdoors, especially if it involves some birdwatching!
I'm a sucker for good coffee and am always on the lookout for new vegetarian and vegan food places to eat.
I am available to work in the Leinster area mainly but am happy to travel and I would love to hear from you and join you in your journey to your special day of Celebration!
