A celebrant is a person, usually from a non-clergy background, who officiates or performs ceremonies for funerals, weddings, vow renewals and naming ceremonies, and to mark any other significant life transitions or rites of passage within the community.​ 

​

Planning a funeral whilst mourning and coming to terms with death can feel like an insurmountable task but I will work with you and guide you every step of the way. We’ll take our time and, at your pace, we can talk about the person who has died. I will then go and craft a service that allows your loved ones’ personality to shine through, checking in with you along the way to make sure we’re getting it right.

​

​A celebrant is not tied to a venue. Although many funerals are still held at a crematorium, you can hold your ceremony wherever it is legally allowed. At the local pub, on a beach, at your home; whether you are holding a woodland burial or a scattering of ashes, I will tailor your ceremony or celebration to uniquely fit your own wants, needs and circumstances.​ 

​

Celebrants are not tied to any religious affiliation, but I am happy to include elements of symbolism, religion or spirituality. ​

​

Everyone deserves to be honoured in a way that reflects who they truly were and I endeavour to capture the essence of your loved one when I craft and deliver each heartfelt and meaningful farewell. ​
