About

Darryl Rees

As a celebrant he works closely with each couple on the shape of the ceremony: the story it tells, the vows, and any ritual or tradition they want included. He offers guidance on writing vows and clarifies the legal side of weddings in the UAE. Ceremonies usually run for 20 to 45 minutes, and he attends the rehearsal so everyone knows their part.

He officiates intimate ceremonies and large celebrations, multicultural weddings, beach and outdoor ceremonies, and ceremonies in luxury hotels, as well as vow renewals and symbolic blessings.
