    Our ceremony was so personal and special because she got so much of us into it.

    When planning a ceremony of any kind, there’s of When planning a ceremony of any kind, there’s often a moment when you feel overwhelmed or out of control. Maybe it’s the enormity of committing to someone for the rest of your life, or the grief that you feel is all-consuming. In our house, we call this a ‘lunchbox moment’... Read my latest blog post to learn more (link in bio ☝). PS: Need a celebrant who will really get your lunchbox moments? Let's chat!

We wanted something personalised to us, that you just can't get from a registrar and the ceremony she designed was incredible. All about us and our lives together and the feedback from guests was amazing, like nothing they had seen before! Thanks again Claire for all you did for us.

    It’s the last day of World Celebrants Week and t It’s the last day of World Celebrants Week and today’s prompt is about our best advice for couples and families. Well obviously it will be ‘use a celebrant for your ceremony’ 😘 But more importantly, remember you can CHOOSE! One of the best things about having a celebrant do your ceremony is that you can choose the person who you most resonate with. A person that you would like to have there on the day. Someone who makes you feel calm, who you’ve got to know, and someone who gets you. You really don’t have to have whoever’s on the rota that day, the person the venue ‘always uses’ or the celebrant you’re assigned by the funeral director. Just as you choose all the other aspects of the day, spend time choosing a celebrant that fits with who you are. Peruse websites, call people on your shortlist for a quick chat… it’s your choice! #worldcelebrantsweek #wcw2022 #funeralcelebrant #weddingcelebrant #celebrant #worthingcelebrant @celebrantscollective
    World Celebrants Week day five is all about our ce World Celebrants Week day five is all about our celebrant inspiration. Well... there's a lot to say here. And I'm really conscious it could come over a bit 'Miss World Contestant', but here we go... When it comes to ceremonies, my couples and families are always my inspiration. Their stories, the things they hold dear, the things they find funny... all of that sparks the creativity that makes their ceremony one of a kind. My family support, encourage and inspire me every day and I love them for it. I get sooooo much inspiration in this work from my celebrant colleagues. From the ones who got me started - @terrishankscelebrant @clairethehumanist @saminfinitelove ; the ones I meet up with @soul_place_joe @julielemanquais @humanrites1 @trueblueceremonies @janeblackmancelebrant @stewart_the_celebrant @hannahosmondcelebrant @hilarychanningcelebrant ; and the ones whose work excites me @kateandkatecelebrants @zenabirchweddings @katiecsoulmidwife But, my 'business wife', friend, chief supporter, laugh bringer outer, creative muse, co-director at @celebrantscollective, podcast co-host and all-round awesome celebrant powerhouse @natasha.c.johnson takes the top spot. I love this woman!! #worldcelebrantsweek #wcw2022

    World Celebrants Week Day Three!! Yaay!!! Today's World Celebrants Week Day Three!! Yaay!!! Today's @celebrantscollective prompt asks us what we love about being a celebrant. It's a very hard question to answer as there are sooooo many things I love about doing the best job in the world. It's hearing stories, telling stories, being around SO MUCH LOVE, the bond formed with gorgeous folk when we create a ceremony together, awesome fellow suppliers, the guests who are fizzy with joy at a wedding, or who happily narrate the slideshow at a funeral, the readers who fill up with tears and get everyone else crying too (happy or sad), feeling I've met a person who's died through the stories of their loved ones, celebrant colleagues who pick me up, make me laugh and take over when Covid hits... In short, it's the people. In this crazy world where so much horrid stuff happens, it's easy to lose faith in humankind. But this work reminds me again and again of our humanity, our creativity, our connections, and our capacity for love. I bloody love the people bit. #wcw2022 #worldcelebrantsweek #funeralcelebrant #weddingcelebrant #officiant #celebrant @marylouiseaitken
