““Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.””
I love to celebrate the joys of life. I take on only a select few bookings per year so that I can dedicate the amount of time to each occasion that it truly deserves. Each occasion will be completely bespoke and tailor-made to suit your unique requirements. My process is to sit down with you for a big chat in which we will decipher all of the lovely individual aspects of your ceremony - the fun and important bits! After that I will be able to start crafting your tailor-made ceremony so that it is an unforgettable and enjoyable experience for all. My specialties include:
weddings
For your wedding, I can offer what is called a blended ceremony. This whole ceremony will be driven by what you both want with no rules or regulations, merely guidelines. Ultimately, together we will turn the wedding ceremony of your dreams into a reality. You can choose from many signature elements such as religious or/and non-religious readings, poetry, and music. It will involve meaningful rituals, some dating back to ancient times; Handfasting, Unity Candle, Sand Ceremony and The Time Capsule, to name but a few. I know how important it is to make every detail perfect and unique and would be delighted to help you customize your big day so that you both can enjoy every minute of a relaxed and loving ceremony. If you choose to go ahead the next step would be for the three of us to meet up and have a good chat. I can explain the above in more detail, offer you some options, hear your own views and of course, my favourite part, hear 'The Love Story' The Love Story is a pivotal part in your ceremony and something all your guests will love to hear. We also won't forget to have fun!!

Let me help you to welcome your beautiful child to the world, carryout a personal naming ceremony, or offer a blessing for your baby and family. Friends and family can share their hopes and dreams for the little one's future.
