FAQs
Is training as a celebrant for me?
When can I start?
How long will the course take me?
I have no previous experience of Celebrancy or running a business, is this course for me?
Absolutely! We will start with the basics and go on from there. You’ll gain so much fundamental knowledge first that you will be ready (and excited) for each next stage.
Will i be able to legalise weddings?
Not yet! Currently in the UK, independent celebrants are unable to legally marry couples. However, there is a lot of work being done to get this changed and does not make the popularity of having a celebrant any less!
What support is offered to me?
In one word, lots! You are never left alone. Once you enrol, you will immediately gain access to Facebook ‘AMC Student Hub’ where you will gain any support you need. Plus you will start with a 1-2-1 with a member of the team and two group coaching calls during your time.
Will I receive a certificate when I’ve completed the training?
Can I shadow a celebrant on the job?
Yes, there is an opportunity to shadow a celebrant on the job! Come check our the team page for more.
