When the bride sent this over…… she said ‘I love this picture of you’ ……. And I couldn’t agree more…… is there anything more joyful than seeing two people in love? Taking that next step into forever! And that joy is all over my face…….
Joy is infectious…… and this day was magical! Full of fun, laughter and a bit of a breeze! It all added to the Joy!

What an honour to be part of the last journey. To lead a ceremony full of love and celebration of who the person was and what they meant to everyone💚

Wow, 2024, what a year...... this time last year, I was researching celebrant courses, and I had no idea that following this path would lead to not only a full-time job but a rewarding and fulfilling career. I am super grateful to everyone who has supported me on this journey!

I was set on my journey by the wonderful with their remarkable training.

Then, with oodles of hard work and some gentle encouragement, I have managed to carve my own way.
I am overwhelmed by the support from my local funeral directors and the lovely people in the wedding industry.

I can't wait to see what 2025 has in store for me...... but all I can say is ..... I AM READY!

What a lovely day
I spent the day chatting with some lovely couples and demonstrated a modern twist on handfasting. It is a lovely unity ritual steeped in tradition. This modern twist means you can get your loved ones involved, and you end up with a physical representation of tying the knot 🪢
Want some more information, send me a messageand we can set up a meeting to discuss how to make your ceremony one to remember❤️🩷🧡💛💚💙💜

What a wonderful way to start September, with a little self-care, you cannot pour from an empty cup, so keep those reserves topped up. I have already started planning my week which includes a cheeky little facial on Wednesday after the kids go back to school.
Whether it's a pamper, getting out in nature or simply being kind to yourself..... step into September with a bit of self care and self love ❤️

Self-care isn’t selfish. You can’t pour from an empty cup💕 So join the Self-Care September challenge and find ways to be kinder to yourself as well as others

Hello!
This is the face of a celebrant who has just conducted her 4th ceremony in 5 days!
It is such a joy to be able to be part of someone's day whether that be the union of marriage, welcoming a new family member or saying goodbye to someone special.

Making music choices can be so difficult for a wedding, it has to feel right for you both. If you are getting stuck and need a little inspiration, why not ask friends and family..... you may just be pleasantly surprised by their choices.
I had visited my grandad and told him we had been struggling to find the right song for our first dance, then next time I visited he handed me a folded piece of paper with a list of wonderful songs 💕
We listened to them all and decided on Nat King Cole's L-O-V-E. It feels even more special to have had that input from my Grandad, who has since passed away.

Well every day is so different and I can work anywhere, from coffee shops, families homes, online and even in the car! As long as I have my laptop, folder and signature red lippy I am generally good to go!
Everyday always starts with coffee! And when conducting a ceremony I always take a mint tea on the road and have a halls soother before doing a vocal warm up! (This is so important as noone wants a croaky celebrant)
I always take time to decompress after a ceremony, this usually involves a dog walk with my beautiful black lab! Taking care of myself so that I can take care of others!
