What are you celebrating?

    Weddings

    Celebrant‑led wedding ceremonies aren’t just a formality before the party, they’re celebrations of the journey you’ve already shared and a welcome to the next chapter of your lives together. When you invite me to be your celebrant, think of me as your guide, helping you shape a ceremony that feels entirely your own - full of personality, heart, and those little moments that make your story yours.

    Your wedding ceremony is a blank canvas. Want to write vows that make people laugh, or maybe shed a few happy tears? Go for it. Fancy including a reading that speaks straight to your relationship, or a tradition that matters to you and your families? Absolutely. Or perhaps you want to keep things simple and uncluttered - that’s beautiful too. The important thing is that it feels like you.

    Choosing a celebrant‑led ceremony means you’re in charge - there are no rules holding you back. Have your ceremony in your garden, on a cliff at sunrise, or even at a festival full of colour and energy. Wherever feels right for you, that’s where your ceremony should be.

    At the heart of it, my job is simple: to help create a ceremony that’s meaningful, authentic, and unforgettable - just like your love story.

    Vow Renewals

    Vow renewals are a wonderful excuse to get all lovey-dovey again - honestly, what’s not to celebrate? It’s like hitting the refresh button on your love story, a moment to pause and really appreciate the life you’ve built together.

    Picture gathering your loved ones to witness your renewed promises, surrounded by memories and the excitement of everything still to come. Whether it’s a milestone anniversary, a celebration of having got through life’s ups and downs together, or just a chance to let your kids or close friends share in your joy, saying “we still do” is a beautiful way to honour your bond - no specific reason required.

    And of course, it should feel entirely yours. Personalise the ceremony with touches that resonate with you and your journey together. Maybe new vows that show how far you’ve grown since the first “I do”, or a funny story that gets everyone laughing. Perhaps you’ll include a ritual that symbolises your love - a sand ceremony, swapping new rings, or something entirely of your own making.

    So dust off those dreamy wedding memories and get ready to celebrate your love all over again - because every chapter deserves its moment in the spotlight.

    Naming Days

    Naming days are joyful celebrations that welcome identity, love, and belonging into your family story. Whether it’s a new baby arriving, an older child joining your fold, or the blending of two families, this is a moment to gather the people who will help shape and support your child’s world.

    Think of a ceremony that’s entirely your own. Maybe you want something non-religious, perhaps you’re blending different faiths, or maybe you just want a completely unique celebration that reflects your family’s spirit. There are no limits - just loads of possibilities.

    Each naming day can include all sorts of personal touches: heartfelt readings, music that feels just right, or symbolic gestures that capture your child’s journey and dreams. This day isn’t just about a welcome - it’s about creating a sense of belonging, connection, and love that everyone present can feel.

    And naming days aren’t just for children - they’re perfect for all sorts of milestones, like gender affirmations, family celebrations, or personal rites of passage. From the venue to the tiniest detail in the ceremony, you can make it completely personal: loving promises, wishes from friends and family, or little rituals that feel meaningful to you.

    At its heart, a naming day is about honouring its star, celebrating the love surrounding them, and marking the people who will nurture, support, and cheer them on as they grow. It’s not just an event - it’s a celebration of love, identity, and connection.

    Celebrations of Life

    I began my celebrancy journey as a funeral celebrant, and over time, my passion for this role has only grown. Funerals, memorials, and celebrations of life aren’t just solemn occasions - they’re moments where we come together to honour and remember the people we’ve loved and lost. As your celebrant, I’m here to guide you, your family, and friends through these significant moments, helping transform grief into remembrance, and, most of all, into celebration of a life fully lived.

    Imagine a ceremony that uplifts rather than weighs heavy. One where the essence and spirit of your loved one shines through, where laughter, tears, and shared smiles are all part of the story. A space where the quirky, wonderful, and unique traits that made them who they were take centre stage.

    Memorials can happen anywhere, at any time - they’re a blank canvas for reflection. Each ceremony is an opportunity to honour someone’s true essence in a way that feels right for everyone gathered, and to invite contributions from family and friends if that feels fitting.

    These gatherings are more than ceremonies; they are lifelines for those left behind. They weave connection, foster comfort, and gently guide us toward closure. My goal is always to craft an experience that truly reflects the individual’s personality and values - a ceremony that allows everyone present to feel included, supported, and able to celebrate a life well-lived, even amidst the sorrow.
