Wedding overlooking the ocean Moonflower Ceremonies Your perfect ceremony brought to life
Michelle Knight - Headshot, Moonflower Ceremonies

Hello & Welcome!

Welcome to Moonflower Ceremonies! I’m Michelle Knight and I’m a fully trained independent celebrant based in East Yorkshire. I conduct ceremonies that are totally unique and bespoke to each individual, couple or family.

I am based in Beverley – with my big soppy cat, Fred – and mostly conduct ceremonies across all the beautiful counties of Yorkshire, but I’m very happy to travel to wherever you need me.

My biggest motivation is providing people with their perfect ceremony, from fairy-tale weddings to beautiful celebrations of life. Whatever your wishes, traditional or alternative, it’s my job to create the perfect ceremony for you.

Michelle provided a loving, professional service from the free consultation to our ceremony on the day. She listened to everything we wanted and her attention to detail was perfect. We had so many compliments on the day from our guests, we would confidently recommend her services to everyone.

Michelle moonflower managed to do our handfast absolutely spontaneously as it happened on a golden sunshine Sunday morning in between breakfast and tatting down our stall at farmyard bike rally, she bestowed our beautiful vows upon us with perfection and in her lovely vibrant way , adapting to all the little things that we ask of her effortlessly. It was a lovely start for us and hand in hand we went down the main drag to finish off our breakky !! Thank you Michelle you were magnificent on our special day .

Lisa Madden

Over the last few months my husband and I had the pleasure of working with Michelle for our son's naming ceremony/1st birthday party, and I can confidently say it was an absolutely incredible experience. Michelle's passion and genuine care for her craft were evident in every aspect of the preparation and day. From the initial stages of planning, Michelle invested a significant amount of time and effort into crafting a ceremony script that was not only beautiful but also tailored to us, our son and our family/friends. Despite the script evolving multiple times to accommodate our changing ideas, Michelle remained patient and supportive throughout the entire process. It was always so clear that the most important thing to her was that the day was exactly how what we wanted, no matter what! Michelle truly has an unwavering dedication to going above and beyond expectations. She didn't just meet our special requests; she exceeded them. She introduced brand new ideas to make the ceremony uniquely ours every step of the way, things like making the event as kid-friendly as possible, finding special keepsakes that our son wouldn’t have to wait years to use, finding creative and beautiful ways of including the people we wanted to, even keeping packages on our behalf because we live abroad and so much more! The amount of research she did was truly astonishing. The attention to detail and personalised approach left a lasting impression on our family. It's clear that she genuinely cares about creating meaningful and memorable moments for her clients. After such an exceptional experience, I can confidently say that I'll never work with another celebrant again, I only wish we would have found her prior to our wedding a couple of years ago! Thank you, Michelle, for making our son's naming ceremony an unforgettable and truly special occasion. We are so grateful for the beautiful memories you helped create.

Kayleigh Proctor

Michelle, our wedding celebrant, exceeded all expectations, transforming what could have been a mundane ceremony into the highlight of our day. Her dedication and personal connection with both my husband and me shone through, resulting in a ceremony that was not only heartfelt but also filled with humor and perfection. With Michelle's meticulous planning, we were able to incorporate every detail we desired, from the flower circle to our unique tradition of sharing a shot for tying the knot. She truly is an exceptional individual, and we are immensely grateful for her hard work and dedication. Thank you, Michelle, for making our day truly unforgettable.

Harriet Slater

Thank you so much Michelle for helping to create such a fitting tribute to Mum, we are so very grateful ❤

Rachel Scott

From the start to finish what an amazing experience we had from Michelle. From meeting her at a wedding fayre to the special ceremony on our day. The little quirky questionnaire so that she could get to know us. To hearing the vowels on the day. Listening to our requests and needs for the day we cannot thank Michelle enough. Nothing was too much bother and she incorporated what we wanted. Even before the wedding day we had long video calls to ensure it was what we wanted and tailored to our requests. Then having our vowels and the ceremony sent to us in a presentation way . We highly recommend her . Thank you Michelle Shan & Stu x

Stuart Biggs

We had an absolutely beautiful hand fasting ceremony by Michelle last year at the farmyard rally in Yorkshire. It was such a wonderful experience! Michelle was lovely and I would recommend her to anyone planning any type of ceremony 🥰

Harriet Jackson

Michelle was so kind and compassionate from the first visit to actually being the Celebrant at my Mum's funeral. She put all the family at ease and the service made us cry, but more importantly, made us laugh too. It was a true reflection of my Mum's life, given in a beautiful put together service. I would highly recommend her.

Carol Bodham

Michelle was brilliant from start to end of our wedding process. She helped us prepare well beforehand and gave some excellent pointers from her experience. She also gave us some space to amend and make the ceremony 'ours' as much as possible. On the day Michelle conducted the ceremony flawlessly and really made the bride and groom feel very relaxed. I thoroughly recommend Michelle as an excellent celebrant as she was a huge part of our perfect day! Thanks a million Michelle! X

John Kitchen-Selby

After recently losing our beloved Dad we were recommended Michelle as the perfect person to write and deliver a beautiful and uplifting celebration of life service. Michelle was so kind and compassionate and went above and beyond to get to know all about our Dad to create a service that was wonderfully personal to us as a family. We highly recommend Michelle and thank her for her care and support.

Julie Deakin

Wanting to plan the perfect ceremony and wedding day for my wife to be was causing me a lot of anxiety and stress, been dyslexic and not good with words mean's I find really difficult reading & writing things that make sense, right from my first enquiry with Michelle from Moonflower Ceremonies she put me totally at ease, clearly explaining her processes and fees, I'm now a lot less stressed knowing I've got a genuine and professional celebrant helping me and I'm now working with her to put together our ceremony and looking forward to our big day.

Phil Ward

The family would like to express our thanks for such a lovely Funeral Service for our elderly relative yesterday. Michelle captured his life brilliantly involving effortlessly highs and lows. Such a professional. Thanks again for your caring support. Without doubt, the family would recommend Michelle x

Debbie Plaxton

We’re so glad we found Michelle and that she was available to be part of our wedding day – we can’t thank her enough for everything she did for us. The ceremony was the one part of the day that we were feeling a bit stuck on and not sure how to approach but Michelle worked her magic and made it so special. Almost all of our guests commented on how wonderful the ceremony was. It was my favourite part of the day and I’ll remember every single second forever! I felt so calm and prepared for it because Michelle had taken care to find out exactly what we wanted which meant I could really enjoy it to the max! At first, we both thought we might find it difficult to share our personal stories with someone we didn't know but Michelle was absolutely fantastic from our very first call. She listened and took time to understand us (even the tricky bits!) and guided us through everything so sensitively and professionally, creating the most unique and beautiful ceremony. We had lots of laughs along the way too and I really appreciated her advice on all things weddingy! We feel very lucky indeed to have met Michelle, she really is an amazing person and we both highly recommend her. I have missed her since the wedding and just wish we could do it all again! Thank you X

Vicky Boon

Michelle is an amazing celebrant. Michelle recently did my dads celebration of life and captured his life perfectly. I would highly recommend Michelle to conduct you celebration.

Julie Carter

Michelle put together an amazing ceremony celebrating the birth, naming and first birthday of my beautiful boy. Michelle put so much effort and time into the day that many guests asked how long Michelle and I had been friends as she captured so many details of our lives and the journey we had to get my little boy. I wasn't 100% sure if I really wanted to have a naming day, but gosh I am glad I did, Michelle made it perfect and helped me to undertake many special little tasks that meant so much to us. Now, if you could just brush up you weather ordering skills Michelle... I cant thank you enough for making the day special. I felt like I had made a friend 😌

Kristy Ann Wise

Michelle is the only celebrant I have ever trained who didn't have a single thing I could critique about her work. Everything she produced was impeccable!

Veronika Robinson Heart-Led Celebrant & Training Professional

Michelle wrote a brilliant service for my Father In Law (it was in Portsmouth) she listened and responded to our needs. She was thoughtful, knowledgeable and sensitive. Highly recommended

Lynn Massey-Davis

Michelle's support has been genuinely invaluable. We would not have been able to Celebrate Mum's life without Michelle's professional, friendly and impassioned support. When something is as excellent as this there is nothing more to be said.

Darrell Twineham

What a superb celebration Michelle did for us. Thank you so much. You captured June's life and personality to a T! Thank you for making it so easy for us xx

Kimberley Harston
