LOVE DESERVES A CELEBRANT WHO LISTENS, UNDERSTANDS, AND CELEBRATES YOU

You’re not just planning a wedding. You’re crafting a moment, a promise, a celebration of everything that brought you here – that’s where I come in!

I’m Janet, a celebrant with a love for story, ceremony, and the kind of laughter that sneaks up on you mid-vow. I’ve walked alongside couples preparing for marriage, and I know that the best ceremonies aren’t scripted; they’re felt.

SO, TELL ME…

Who makes the morning coffee and who serves the sundowners?
What song makes you both dance like fools in the kitchen?
When did you first know this was your person?

Let’s take those quirks, rituals, and experiences and shape a ceremony that feels like home. One that’s joyful, inclusive, and full of heart.

A little about me

I’m Janet Askew, Cape Town-based celebrant, trainer and facilitator, and lifelong connector of people and purpose.

I’ve spent my career designing learning experiences, writing, coaching, and developing leaders. As a business consultant and public speaker, I’ve helped organisations shift culture and strategy. As a volunteer marriage counsellor, I’ve walked alongside many couples preparing to commit to each other.

And because love also lives in the practical, I offer guidance on (ANC) Ante Nuptial Contracts, helping couples understand their options and make informed decisions about their future. With my legal background (LL.B), I bring clarity and simplicity to conversations that matter.

I’m a single mom to two lekker young adults, a widow, a hiker, a wine lover, and a woman who’s reinvented herself more times than I can count. I know what it means to love fiercely, lose deeply, and rise again with laughter and grace. That’s the energy I bring to your ceremony.

Let’s co-create a moment that matters. One that holds your story, your values, and your joy.
