Creating ceremonies that are personal, meaningful and memorable.
Weddings
A wedding booked with me will reflect yourselves as a couple. Humanist wedding ceremonies allow you to express your personalities on the big day with music, readings and rituals. Together we can create a ceremony that is simple and traditional or totally unique and a bit of fun! As a Registered Wedding Solemniser, your wedding with me is a legal ceremony and you will be officially married on the day.
Couples often tell me the ceremony was the highlight of their day.
Funerals
Many people are now choosing to mark the passing of a loved one with a non-religious ceremony. I can help a bereaved family to create a non-religious ceremony which both reflects the loss of a loved one but also celebrates the joy and love they shared with family and friends during their lifetime. I will provide guidance and support in choosing the appropriate words, music, readings and symbolic gestures which best reflect the life of the deceased.
The bereaved family can opt to include contributions from family and friends or the ceremony can be conducted entirely by the celebrant.
Naming
Welcome the new little one to the family with an intimate naming ceremony. This is usually conducted for babies but sometimes it is also appropriate for older children and young adults. This can be conducted in a hotel, the local park or in your own home or garden.
It is an opportunity to acknowledge the new life within the family circle, to make committments to the child and officially name them.
Vow Renewal Ceremony
A vow renewal ceremony is a celebration, where a couple reaffirms their love and commitment after years of marriage. It’s a beautiful way to reflect on the journey they’ve shared, honour the challenges they’ve overcome, and joyfully promise to continue building a life together, surrounded by family and friends.
