About me – black owned business | female celebrant with a difference, master-of-ceremonies, stand-up comedian and singer- native EN who speaks NL.
Who am I?
I’m Clover Jean (yep, that’s my real name) an expat and multi-talented performer who evolved into the London Wedding Celebrant based in Amsterdam. With more than 16 years experience, I’ve performed and delivered over 500 shows and non-legal wedding ceremonies in EU. Born in Shepherds Bush, UK (1968), at the age of 5 I entertained my school friends and made them laugh. On my 18th birthday, a hospitality job brought me to NL. While working as a management assistant, I pursued a profession as an improvisation actress (one woman show) and singing master-of-ceremonies. This is my life!
What’s my background?
As a European of mixed-nationalities; British Afro-Caribbean. My parents West Indian; Jamaican mum (Baptist) and St. Lucian dad (Atheist), gave me the gift of expression, creativity and Rheumatoid Arthritis. It’s a challenge, but my work life balance gives me energy. I enjoy singing, swimming, storytelling, listening to BBC 4, messing around in nature (my garden), eating apple pie and chilling out on my sofa.
How did I grow to become a celebrant?
I’m a bit crazy (in a good way), I love seeing people have fun. In 2008 a couple asked me to conduct a non-legal wedding ceremony (in Dutch) on Texel island, they said; ‘Put on a toga, a wig and act!’ I did! And stand-up comedian wedding celebrant was born.
Why choose my casual wedding services?
As a stand-up comedian and wedding celebrant, I’ve realised love knows no boundaries or faith. So, I enjoy entertaining people from all around the world with different cultural backgrounds. Need I say more about me? Contact me today about presenting your surprise event or special wedding!
