Bringing depth & meaning to life's most important moments, one ceremony at a time.
At FuturFaith, we exist to restore the soul of ceremony in modern Irish life.
We believe that moments of transition—like getting married, saying goodbye, or welcoming new life—deserve to be marked with depth, dignity, and a genuine sense of meaning.
For too long, ceremony has been seen as either a religious rite or a bureaucratic formality.
But we know it can be more. At its best, a ceremony is a mirror—one that reflects not just a moment in time, but the essence of the people at the centre of it.
That’s why we’re here.
To train, support, and inspire a new wave of independent, non-religious officiants across Ireland and Northern Ireland who can craft ceremonies that feel as real, personal, and profound as the lives they honour.
Ceremony doesn’t need to be ancient to be sacred. It just needs to be honest. And we believe that every person deserves access to ceremony that speaks their language, their values, and their truth.
Whether it’s love, loss, birth, or growth, we’re here to help people mark what matters—without compromise, without dogma, and with all the care in the world.
What we do
Training modern officiants to lead with heart, creativity & confidence.
FuturFaith is Ireland’s leading provider of non-religious training for legal ceremony officiants.
Our flagship course, Path to Ministry, prepares students to become solemnisers—legally recognised to marry couples in the Republic of Ireland and perform ceremonies across the island.
But we go far beyond weddings.
We train our students to create and lead deeply human, bespoke ceremonies for:
Funerals and memorials
Baby naming ceremonies and welcoming rituals
Stepping Stone and coming-of-age ceremonies
Personal rites of passage for all identities and life stages
Our curriculum is modern, inclusive, and practical—combining legal training, public speaking, storytelling, grief literacy, and creative writing with professional development tools for a real-world career. And because we understand the emotional depth of this work, we also nurture our students’ confidence, self-reflection, and personal growth throughout.
Graduates of the Path to Ministry can join our Futur+ membership, which offers:
Continued training and ceremony resources
A legal solemniser listing and professional profile
Community meetups and peer mentoring
Guidance on bookings, pricing, client care, and beyond
We are a school, a platform, and a movement—building the future of ceremony from the ground up.
Our values
Inclusive, human-centred, and rooted in the power of real connection.
We are proud to be non-religious, but deeply spiritual in our approach to meaning.
We are grounded in values that shape how we teach, how we support our students, and how we believe ceremony should function in the world:
Inclusivity: We honour all identities, cultures, relationships, and family structures.
Integrity: We believe in honest work, clear boundaries, and emotional safety for both celebrants and their clients.
Creativity: Every ceremony should feel like a one-of-a-kind reflection—not a copy-paste template.
Professionalism: This is more than a calling—it’s a skilled craft. Our training is rigorous, ethical, and practical.
Autonomy: We empower celebrants to lead with their own voice, story, and personality—not to mimic anyone else.
Community: Our students are never just “graduates.” They’re part of a supportive network of fellow officiants who lift one another up.
Most of all, we believe that ceremony is a human right—and it should be available to everyone, in language and style that resonates with their life and values.
Our vision
Shaping a future where ceremony reflects who we truly are.
FuturFaith was born from a simple but radical idea:
That Ireland and the world beyond are ready for a new kind of ceremonial leadership.
We envision a future where independent celebrants are as respected, supported, and recognised as their religious counterparts—because love, grief, and growth don’t belong to any one tradition. They belong to us all.
We see a future where:
Every couple in Ireland can choose a wedding that reflects their story, not someone else’s script.
Every family can honour a loved one with compassion and truth—not just default language or impersonal customs.
Every celebrant has access to world-class training, legal recognition, and a thriving professional path—no matter their background or beliefs.
We’re here to shape that future—not by rejecting the past, but by evolving it.
By taking the heart of Irish ceremony and giving it a modern, inclusive voice.
We know this work matters—because we see its impact every day.
In the tears of a couple hearing their love story out loud for the first time.
In the silence that follows a powerful goodbye.
In the strength of a celebrant who once doubted themselves, now holding space with pride.
FuturFaith is where future traditions begin.
And we believe the future is full of meaning—because we’re helping people create it, one ceremony at a time!
