Using vegetables grown from the man’s own allotment and dahlias he loved to grow - his tools were also utilized to create these two unique personal tributes. How wonderful - they brought something very special to the service. 💜

I’m often told people enjoy my videos — that they’re helpful, varied, and even make it feel like they’ve got to know me a little before we speak or meet.

That’s really what they’re for: sharing a bit of me, while keeping you aware of the choices available and hopefully encouraging people to think on a wider prospective maybe.

Got something you’d like me to cover about Celebration of Life Services? Comment below, message me, or text 07990 534155.

I’d love to hear your ideas. 💜

Two very different lives, each remembered in a way that was true to who they were.

Yesterday was truly a day of two contrasting halves of some magnitude.

In the morning, a gentle service for a beautiful baby girl who, in her short time, brought so much love and light to her family. Soft, tender, touched with pink.

Later, the complete contrast — celebrating a man who lived for rock music. A talented guitarist, member of several bands, and even honoured with his own song and lyrics shared at the service.

From a pink scarf to an Iron Maiden t-shirt, each service reflected the life we were there to honour.

Two very different services, but each with the same purpose: to give families a platform of strength as they face their grief.

So very honoured to be entrusted and so grateful to the arrangers who understand I am a versatile Celebrant - truly appreciate the trust put in me. 💜

Reposting this video that popped up as a memory from four years ago a) it's raining just as it was when I recorded it that day and b) although undeniably I have aged, I am so incredibly proud that the excitement and enthusiasm I displayed back then still sits true with me today - to give my familys choice and the ability to celebrate their loved one's life in a way that works for them.
I still feel that feeling, that commitment, that desire and watching this video really did hit home to me - may this passion and desire long continue - 4.5 years in, over 1000+ services I've been entrusted to officiate at - I will always strive to be the Celebrant who never wavers look at my young smiling face - it's aged but the Celebrant behind it stands true still.

The Refreshments.

31/08/2025

August 30th was National Grief Awareness Day.

I didn’t post then—because grief awareness shouldn’t belong to just one day.
It’s something we live with, something we witness in others, and something we can choose to show up for every day.

Still, it’s a good reminder:
to keep checking in,
to keep listening,
to keep remembering,
and to offer the same care to ourselves too.

Some ways we can be grief-aware all year round:
• Send a gentle “thinking of you”
• Listen without trying to fix
• Remember anniversaries and hard days
• Say their loved one’s name
• Offer small, practical help
• Respect where they are, without judgment
• Keep inviting them in, even if they decline
• Care for your own heart, too
• Learn more about grief
• Talk openly about loss

Grief has no timeline.
And compassion shouldn’t either. 💜

DONATIONS - Families often have different feelings about donations. For some, it feels important; for others, it’s not the right choice. Both are absolutely fine.

Donations are never about pressure, they’re simply an option. Many families choose a charity linked to their loved one’s life, while others invite people to support a cause of their own choosing in memory.

There are many ways to do this: a retiring collection, an online page or QR code, envelopes or buckets at the refreshments or something more personal such as supporting a sponsored event, maybe something a family member is doing to honor the person who has passed. I even had grandchildren who made up small bags of sweets and sold them in return for a donation.

It doesn’t have to be a monetary donation though. I’ve heard of food donations for a food bank and blankets for an animal shelter being requested to name but a few.

Most importantly, there’s no right or wrong. What matters is that it feels right for you, the family, and honours your loved one in a way that truly reflects them. 💜
