Registered solemniser
With over seven years of experience and countless 5-star reviews, I’ve had the honour of crafting and delivering hundreds of bespoke ceremonies. I’m passionate about travelling worldwide to conduct your unique, unforgettable celebration. I began my journey as a celebrant, and after two years of rigorous training, I then proudly became a legally registered solemniser, allowing me to perform legally binding weddings. This progression has deepened my commitment to creating unforgettable, personalised ceremonies, from weddings and vow renewals to baby-namings and funerals.
Growing up in a small-town Irish family as the eldest of five, I’ve always been curious about people and their stories. My own journey has been shaped by personal challenges, including fertility struggles and a life-threatening illness that deepened my connection to the spiritual side of life. These experiences have given me a profound empathy and understanding, allowing me to bring even more depth to the ceremonies I lead.
Since becoming a FuturFaith Minister, I’ve found even greater purpose in celebrating love, life, and connection. Despite setbacks like open-heart surgery, my faith and passion for ceremony have only strengthened, and I continue to offer support and solace through my work.

We had our ceremony at the Homestead House on the 23rd of August with Lorraine Mccarthy. Lorraine is an absolute professional, starting with the discussion of the ceremony details, venue viewing, ceremony draft and many more she made sure everything was perfect for us. My husband and I wanted a small intimate ceremony with only family and close friends, and this was the ideal choice for our type of ceremony! ☺️ Lorraine was very kind and looked after us from start to finish ❤️ Thank you so much, Lorraine and the Homestead House 💎

From start to finish Lorraine was fantastic. She worked with us on creating a Wedding Ceremony that was intimate, personal and just perfect for us and our day. All of our guest commented on how beautiful our ceremony was and how perfect it was from start to finish. Thanks to Lorraine it was seamless, effortless and just what we wanted for our special day. Thank you Lorraine ❤️

Lorraine was absolutely brilliant, couldn't have been any nicer and really made the ceremony exactly what we wanted, we couldn't recommend her anymore!!

My decision to train with FuturFaith has transformed my understanding of ministry. I had no idea how much I could do with this path until I started the course.. I'm so excited to be part of Futur+ when I graduate.

Futurfaith's commitment to inclusivity and open-mindedness toward spirituality is strongly in alignment with my own morals, principles and goals. My journey has been not to somewhere else, but back home to myself.
