Celebrant for Funerals, Weddings & Naming Ceremonies in Northumberland & the North East
Naming Ceremonies
Celebrate a new member of your family with your family and most valued friends. Naming ceremonies can be held at any place of your choosing: a special setting outdoors, or in a hotel, pub or home.
I will work with you to create a meaningful, memorable ceremony, the style, format, readings, music, and usually a symbolic gesture, to symbolically welcome your loved one.
Wedding ceremonies
Your wedding can be whatever you want it to be: a quiet joyous affair, a large gathering, traditional, themed, indoors or outdoors. You didn’t pick each other at random, so why settle for a generic ceremony when you can have a wedding uniquely tailored to you, that celebrates you as you are, with your circle of family and best friends, and even pets. Or, if your prefer, an intimate elopement.
It doesn’t have to be ‘out there’ or 11/10 on the dial either, if you prefer a quiet and intimate traditional celebration, an elopement perhaps, at your favourite pub, or beach, garden or a woodland clearing.
End of Life Ceremonies
Funerals, memorials, ash scattering, woodland burials, celebrations of life are significant occasions to mark the end of a life, gathering family and friends together to pay tribute, share memories, and celebrate them. For someone we care about it feels important to get this right.
I work with you to design and and deliver a personal and rich tribute in the right tone and style, and ensure it fits within the chosen funeral arrangements, whether at a crematorium, a natural burial ground, a celebration of life at a local venue, or scattering of ashes somewhere meaningful.
Some tears may fall in sadness, while others fall in pride and joy.
