As a life coach, I have always been interested in people's lives and their stories. As a Humanist celebrant, I serve the non-religious community by creating and delivering personalised ceremonies to celebrate major life events in a way that fits with their views. You may or may not want ‘your story’ in your ceremony, well that’s ok too, either way, we will work together to make sure that the heart of your ceremony really reflects you and your partner’s personalities and while we do, we will have fun as we create your special day.

Planning an important life event such as your legally binding wedding ceremony, I will take the time to encourage and support your ideas and together we can make your dream wedding ceremony a reality. Your day will be memorable and fun, relaxed yet solemn and beautiful. I will do my best to give you as many alternatives as possible in order to inspire you.

My style is described as being an enthusiastic and engaged celebrant who enjoys both the traditional and unusual ceremony. You can add readings, poetry, even songs into your ceremony. You may want to include symbolic rituals such as a Handfasting, Candle Lighting, a Sand Ceremony and Drinking from the Quaich – or you may have your own ideas.

These rituals offer a unique visual representation of the coming together of two individual people to become united in marriage. They can allow your ceremony to reflect you, to make you feel proud and happy.
