As weddings are one of the most sacred events of one’s life, a registrar or a priest, shall be present especially during the time when the bride and groom are exchanging vows. However, there are also other options if you don’t want to go the traditional route, such as a celebrant.

There are a few key differences between celebrants and priests, the biggest difference being that the former is not a member of the clergy. While the priest receives formal training to perform ceremonies, a celebrant participates in seminars and conferences as dictated by his or her country’s celebrant organization.
