Frequently Asked Questions

Find clarity on our bespoke services and ceremonial process. Below, we address the most common enquiries regarding Celebrantes – Bespoke Ceremonies. If your question remains unanswered, please reach out; we would be delighted to assist you.


  • What is a symbolic ceremony?

    It's a personalized celebration, neither religious nor civil, tailored to your story, values, and traditions. It has a symbolic character, meaning it has no legal validity; civil registration is necessary for official purposes.

  • What is a celebrant?

    A celebrant is a professional who creates and conducts personalized symbolic ceremonies, such as weddings, welcome ceremonies, vow renewals, tributes, or community events. The celebrant gives voice to the stories, values, and wishes of the people involved, creating unique, authentic, and meaningful moments.

  • Do ceremonies replace civil or religious registration?

    No. If you wish, a symbolic ceremony can complement these official acts, offering a unique, personalized, authentic moment with profound meaning. The symbolic ceremony can be whatever you want it to be—your story, your message.

  • What is the difference between a religious ceremony and a symbolic one?

    Religious faith follows specific rites of faith, while symbolic faith is completely personalized and can incorporate only the values, traditions, or symbols that make sense to you.

  • Can I fully customize my ceremony?

    Yes. Each ceremony is designed together with you, and may include rituals, readings, music, vows, and special symbolism that reflect who you are, who you both are.

  • Can the officiant travel to my region?

    Yes. We have professional celebrants in various regions of Portugal and we can find someone closest to you.

  • How can I hire an officiant?

    It's simple: just contact us through the form, email, WhatsApp, or phone. Share the date and type of ceremony you want, and we'll help you choose the ideal celebrant. Then, together we'll create a personalized and meaningful ceremony.
