Roxanne Angelique Independent Civil Celebrant

Roxanne Angelique Independent Civil Celebrant My name is Roxanne Angelique Cawdron and I am an independent Civil Celebrant based in Essex.

Fully qualified and insured Independent Civil Celebrant specialising in bringing light to your story in life's biggest moments - from touching funeral services through to weddings, renewals, child and family ceremonies. I have been professionally trained and accredited in in two level 3 Diplomas (DipFC and DipCC)
I specialise in writing and delivering unique and personal ceremonies to mark life's biggest moments - so everything from funeral services through to weddings, renewals and baby/child/family ceremonies - and I have conducted hundreds of beautiful and poignant ceremonies over the years. I'm very openly passionate about what I do and pride myself on the relationship I build with my clients - after all, I can't write a reflective and appropriate ceremony for you if I'm not familiar with who you are! My bespoke ceremonies are crafted individually for the people they are intended for - there is no set format, no templates, and no standard expectation, but rather I give ownership of these special occasions back to my clients where they have complete freedom to create a moment in time that is wholly suitable and appropriate for them. It's a beautiful process, and one I'm honoured to partake in every single day.

How beautiful 🥰

Jim Carrey once said: Grief is not just an emotion—it’s an unraveling, a space where something once lived but is now gone. It carves through you, leaving a hollow ache where love once resided.

In the beginning, it feels unbearable, like a wound that will never close. But over time, the raw edges begin to mend. The pain softens, but the imprint remains—a quiet reminder of what once was. The truth is, you never truly "move on." You move with it. The love you had does not disappear; it transforms. It lingers in the echoes of laughter, in the warmth of old memories, in the silent moments where you still reach for what is no longer there. And that’s okay.

Grief is not a burden to be hidden. It is not a weakness to be ashamed of. It is the deepest proof that love existed, that something beautiful once touched your life. So let yourself feel it. Let yourself mourn. Let yourself remember.

There is no timeline, no “right” way to grieve. Some days will be heavy, and some will feel lighter. Some moments will bring unexpected waves of sadness, while others will fill you with gratitude for the love you were lucky enough to experience.

Honor your grief, for it is sacred. It is a testament to the depth of your heart. And in time, through the pain, you will find healing—not because you have forgotten, but because you have learned how to carry both love and loss together.

Burials are not the easiest of moments for Brian to navigate at his age, or just simply as a working Spaniel - so many sounds and smells, and soooo many squirrels!!
But thanks to the understanding of yet another amazing family, they allowed the boy to continue his learning by accompanying them to lay their loved one to rest - and he did so so well.

Being a working breed I have to work hard to fulfil and enrich his needs - we do lots of sniffing, retrieving, playing ‘find it’ and plenty of simple daily games to keep his clever mind stimulated. So I’m proud as punch that not only is he doing so well at this stage in his training as a therapy dog, but that the reception of mourners and colleagues alike is so positive and affirming.

The boy did good 🥰

This song was performed by one half of the today at the funeral of a brilliant man today.
Not only was it played and sung with passion by Josh, the song itself was stunning, and so so fitting.
Have a good listen ###
