What do you love most about your job?
I love what I do.
And what I do is all about love. Whether it’s a wedding or a vow renewal, a naming ceremony or a celebration of life, love is at the heart of it all. As a creative, friendly and musical celebrant, it would be my pleasure to write a bespoke ceremony for you.
It is an absolute privilege to walk alongside couples and families during their most precious moments. Listening to treasured anecdotes, family folklore and legendary stories to craft a unique ceremony filled with love is a true honour.
I’ll ensure your ceremony reflects your needs and makes for a truly memorable occasion.
What inspired you to start your own business?
After a long and successful career in education, it was time for a change. I wanted to create a business that would open up opportunities to work with a wide range of people so that I could create and deliver beautiful bespoke ceremonies for them.
Why should our clients choose you?
When you book me as your celebrant, you can be assured that you are booking the best. With my background in education and senior leadership, I am comfortable in front of people. My organisational abilities coupled with my attention to detail means you are in safe hands. You are front and centre.
Your ceremony can be informal and relaxed if that is who you are. We can bring humour and fun if appropriate. Or if you prefer formal, I can meet the brief. The great thing about working with me is that any ceremony can be tailored to you and your requirements.
I have a music degree and taught both music and English for many years eventually becoming an assistant headteacher. I led on equity, diversity and inclusion in a large secondary school.
I love performing! Singing, Brazilian percussion and composing are just a few of my passions. I love a good festival and even opened the West Holts Stage at Glastonbury once upon a time.
