What are the options?

There are no fixed rules about what a funeral ceremony should be. You can honour, celebrate and say 'goodbye' to your loved one in whatever way suits you and your family and friends.

Where do we start?

We'll probably have a short telephone chat to arrange for me to come and visit you at home. I'll listen to you tell me about your loved one, and we'll chat about what you would like for the ceremony.

I'll support you all the way.

You can be as involved as you wish in creating the ceremony or on the day. Taking an active part in your loved ones service may be important for you and your family. I can officiate, facilitate or just be there for support.

What are the options?

There are no fixed rules about what a funeral ceremony should be. You can honour, celebrate and say 'goodbye' to your loved one in whatever way suits you and your family and friends.

Where do we start?

We'll probably have a short telephone chat to arrange for me to come and visit you at home. I'll listen to you tell me about the person who has died, and we'll chat about what you would like for the ceremony. It's wonderful if you have ideas about music and favourite readings, things that celebrate and honour your loved one. And it is fine if you don't feel you have a clue. Whether you need me to be there to guide you through it, or if you want me to create the whole ceremony for you or already have the whole ceremony planned out in your head, or something in between, I can create whatever you wish to serve your needs.

I'll support you all the way

You can be as involved as you wish in creating the ceremony or on the day. Taking an active part in your loved ones service may be important for you and your family. I can officiate, facilitate or just there to support you. Being able to mourn as you celebrate your memories of your loved one can be a beautiful and soulful part of the healing process. You don't have to stand up and speak on the day, I can speak your words for you. If you are finding it tough to manage at this difficult time I can offer you extra support, whether it is counselling or active processes to help you through.

For all celebrancy services I charge £50 an hour.

Those we love are 'extra-ordinary'. Tell me all about them: their stories, their personality, their values, their beliefs and allow me to create a beautiful extraordinary ceremony to honour and celebrate all that they mean to you.
