Welcome to the blog! Here you'll find thoughts on ceremonies, advice for planning your special day, and stories from my journey as a celebrant.
Beautiful Venues for Ceremonies Across Lancashire
Based in Chorley at the heart of Lancashire, I’m lucky to work across some of the most stunning venues in the North West. Whether you’re planning a wedding, a celebration of life, or a naming ceremony, Lancashire has something truly special to offer. Here are some of my favourite types of venues – and why…
My Services
Funerals & Celebrations of Life
A goodbye that truly reflects your loved one - their personality, their passions, their humour, and the legacy they leave behind. I'll spend time with you, listening to your stories and memories, then create a ceremony that pays tribute in a way that feels genuine and heartfelt.
Whether you want something traditional with The Lord's Prayer and favourite hymns, or a modern celebration of life with photos, music, and perhaps a story or two that makes everyone smile through their tears - I'll work with you to create exactly what feels right.
Wedding Ceremonies
Your wedding ceremony should be as unique as your love story. I'll help you create a celebration that honours tradition whilst bringing in personal touches - hand fasting, unity candles, readings that mean something to you, and vows that come from the heart.
I am an animal lover, particularly dogs, so if you want your dog to be your ring-bearer - I am certainly up for this!
Perfect for couples who want something meaningful but not overly quirky - traditional with that modern twist.
Vow Renewals
Whether you're celebrating a milestone anniversary or simply want to reaffirm your commitment, a vow renewal is a beautiful way to mark your journey together. I'll help you create a ceremony that reflects where you've been and where you're going.
Naming Ceremonies
Welcoming a child into your family circle with a celebration that's full of joy, laughter, and love. I have a special interest in naming ceremonies for adoptive and foster families - having spent many years supporting these journeys professionally, I understand the unique significance of declaring, "You are ours, and we are yours, forever."
