'Working with Francilla was a joy. She’s kind, caring and really makes an effort to know the couple both as individuals and in the context of their relationship. My husband and I recently worked with Francilla to help us celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. She assisted us with our vows, personalized our ceremony, and was kind enough to give us a copy of the entire service.
Using Francilla’s services made our perfect day even better. If you are considering having Francilla as your wedding celebrant, I would say go for it – your ceremony will be in good hands.
I am especially happy with the care that Francilla took with my husband and I as we live outside of the UK and had to conduct meetings via Zoom, WhatsApp and e-mail.'

Hi Francilla,
finally got a moment to write and say how brilliant you were on Saturday throughout the day and evening. You were such a wonderfully calming and spiritual energy to have around us all and performed the ceremony so beautifully, especially as we know how little prep time you had compared to the average wedding!! It was such a pleasure to have you at our wedding to help make it truly the most perfect day imaginable. Laura and I are sooo happy we chose you as celebrant.

My now husband :-) and I, were so pleased when we found Francilla. We knew instantly from our first conversation that she was the ideal Celebrant for us. Her professionalism, calmness, and ability to listen in detail confirmed that we were in good hands. She mindfully crafted a bespoke ceremony for us, that was beautifully worded, touching, and expressed the breadth of our union. The elements of hand fastening and jumping the broom were cleverly woven in and she was very helpful and active in assisting our research of the items. Francilla even provided and thoughtfully decorated a besom in Nigerian and Irish colours to match the theme of our wedding. Amazing!
Francilla made our very special day both magical and memorable.
A heartfelt thank you!
Laura & Luke xx

Francilla Mangal-Smart’s exceptional service as a celebrant deserves high praise. From the extended and attentive initial meeting at our home to the day of the funeral, she went above and beyond, providing valuable advice for the eulogy, leaving helpful paperwork and always being available to speak to. Francilla’s heartfelt stories during the funeral reflected Hyacinth’s spirit, creating an atmosphere that made us feel connected to her as if we’d known her for a lifetime. Despite sadly never meeting Hyacinth, Francilla’s warmth, professionalism, and cultural insights made the funeral deeply personal, family-oriented, and filled with humour and love. Her genuine and relatable approach from the first moments assured us that we had chosen an outstanding celebrant. Highly recommended for her outstanding service and cultural understanding.
The biggest thank you, The McDonald Family. x

We are so pleased to have found Francilla for our wedding celebration! From the very first conversation, Francilla put us at ease, was very generous with her time and put together and presented a wonderful ceremony, the memories of which we will cherish forever. We loved her energy and the bespoke and personal script that tied in all the elements of our different cultures (Caribbean x Indian).
Thank you so much Francilla!
