Let’s meet our
celebrant

Vincent Hely is a Weddings, Funeral and Family Celebrant. Vincent delivers Spiritual, semi-religious, non-religious, Weddings, Baby Naming and Funeral services.

I bring delight to creating joyful and personal Wedding and Baby Naming Ceremonies.

For me the purpose of the funeral service is a “celebration of life” that honours and best represents the person’s memory. The emphasis is on how the person lived their life, their personality traits and the memories. Music, poetry and prose play a big part.

    Having decided to split our wedding into two different days, one being a family only ceremony and the next being a “sequel” wedding day with our wider family and friends, we knew we wanted to mark it in a special way. Vincent is such a warm, genuine person and from our first meeting, we knew he was exactly what we were looking for. Having taken the time to understand us as a couple and what we wanted from the day, Vincent created a beautiful ceremony outline that was light-hearted and fun but also very meaningful to us, giving us the opportunity to tweak as we liked. From funny stories to “I ‘still’ do’s”, the thought behind all the little touches he added to our sequel wedding day made it just as memorable as our main day. We can’t thank Vincent enough for being such a wonderful presence in both the lead up and on the day itself. We couldn’t recommend Vincent highly enough to anyone looking to mark a life occasion.

  • "We were so fortunate to have Vincent as our celebrant for our vow and handfasting ceremony. He was an amazing resource in so many ways from helping us find the perfect spot on Inisheer, providing choices for readings and ideas for the ceremony and designing things exactly how we imagined it. And all of this while we were in the states and Vincent in Ireland! We cannot say enough about the joy and genuineness his presence added to our special day."

  • We had Vincent officiate our daughter's naming day. We had no clue what the ceremony would entail but he immediately put us at ease. Vincent is amazing to deal with, so calming and easygoing. He would make a fabulous officiant for any ceremony. He gave great suggestions for different readings/things to do during the ceremony and was also so flexible with our ideas. The perfect person for this job!
