Hi, I'm Tim

I am an experienced Traditional Celebrant having been trained by the Fellowship of Professional Celebrants. So if you want a small, intimate wedding ceremony or a large, outdoor wedding, your ceremony will be amazing, memorable and will reflect your personalities as a couple. The same applies to your renewal of vows ceremony or if you want to welcome your newborn child into the world – I will work closely with you to make sure you get the ceremony that is exactly what you want it to be.

From our first face-to-face meeting you will get to see the real me. It doesn’t take long to find out what your visions are for your perfect ceremony – It is after all your day and you can have anything you like for your ceremony – If this is something you would like to know more about, please contact me and I would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

What's my ceremony style?

I am really looking forward to working with you to create an amazing ceremony in your chosen beautiful location. I will also provide support to help you write your vows if you need some ideas and inspiration, I can source readings and can incorporate any symbolic ceremonies such as a sand ceremony, a ring warming ceremony, a unity candle ceremony . . . and this list is endless. I will help create something special for you whether you are looking for a non-religious ceremony or something spiritual or religious. I have used the Bible many times as part of a wedding ceremony. There are no restrictions anymore – It is your day, your way. Every script is printed off and gifted to you in a presentation folder along with a certificate as a reminder of your wonderful ceremony.

Funerals

Planning a funeral for someone close to you is a difficult task to have to undertake, especially as this is a distressing time for you and your family. Working closely with you and your funeral director, I can help guide and advise you and your family during this sad period. You will also have every opportunity to discuss all aspects of the ceremony throughout this process.

The many options available to you are yours to choose, and you may wish to include any music, poetry or readings that you feel are appropriate. Working together, we can plan the order of the ceremony and at every stage of this process, you will be able to approve or amend the content of the ceremony.

As your celebrant it is my role to work closely with you, your family and your funeral director. Every funeral should be personal and unique and I will help you arrange a fitting ceremony to tell the story of the life that has been lived.

I will meet with you to talk through your many options for the ceremony, and I will be there to give you any help and advice with the ceremony content throughout this whole process. I can write the eulogy/tribute, or support you in writing out your own, and I will also prepare the ceremony script, and conduct the ceremony.

Thank you Tim for such a beautiful ceremony

Wedding | 11/09/2021 | Cefn Tilla Court, Usk. Wales

We couldn’t be happier with the work Tim did for our wedding ceremony. We have received so many compliments for such a beautiful ceremony that Tim created for us, and many guests thought that Tim was a family friend because of how personal it was. Tim drafted a beautiful script with our love story and added elements of humour which had our guests laughing and crying. Tim was easy to work with and nothing was too much trouble with little edits I had for the ceremony script. I would highly recommend.

Greetings from America!
Words cannot fully express how lovely our ceremony was. Tim did an amazing job with our faith-based ceremony and the addition of some beautiful pieces of scripture. We loved our sand ceremony as well! We are forever grateful to have found Tim! We feel so blessed to have him as a forever friend!
Thank you Tim!!!
