Hi, I'm Lucinda
and I am an absolute sucker for a love story!
Having been a nurse in the NHS for the last 2 decades I am deeply passionate about really getting to know people and what is important to them. Over the years, I’ve had a front-row seat to some of the most beautiful moments and these have inspired me to become a celebrant, where I can contribute to and celebrate these wonderful stories.
What's my ceremony style?
I am fun, compassionate, imaginative and genuinely interested in every person from every walk of life. This is not just a job for me. It is something I am truly passionate about and I get a tremendous amount of pleasure from creating occasions that are personal, funny and unforgettable.

What do I offer?

Weddings
Every wedding is as glorious as the next. Love comes in so many wonderful forms and I want to celebrate them all!
My favourite type of ceremony would be sincere, funny and uplifting.
I will fill your wedding ceremony with laughter, joy and a sprinkling of playfulness, ensuring it’s one of the highlights of your celebrations for you and your guests and not just a formality they’ve got to get through before the party can start (we’ve all been to one of those!).
I will do my very best to provide you with a ceremony that is meaningful, captivating, and funny.

Naming Ceremonies
As a mother of 3 cheeky boys myself, all still in primary school, those baby days still feel like they could have been yesterday. I would be honoured to create a baby naming ceremony that is fun, compassionate and special.

Why choose Lucinda for your naming ceremony?
Baby naming ceremonies are such a beautiful way to mark your precious baby’s entrance in to the world and to share it with all those who will be there for them and for you as parents as you walk this incredible, euphoric, sometimes challenging and ever so slightly exhausting path of parenthood.


Renewal of Vows
Vow renewals are one of my favourite occasions. As I’ve said before, I’m a sucker for a love story and these tend to be some of the most incredible.
These stories tend to be long, full of twists, turns and bumps along the way. They share huge moments of joy and sometimes of challenges that they have survived together with the love and support from each other. They are truly beautiful tales and I would be honoured to work alongside you both to create something special enough to do your story justice.
Vow renewals are the most beautiful way of reaffirming your love for one another. They can be as formal or informal as you like. They can incorporate symbolic gestures, poems and readings and in a form that is deeply personal to you as a couple. In a vow renewal you have nothing to prove. You are doing this because you want to celebrate your love with the people most precious to you. Its as simple and as wonderful as that.

Funerals
In my two decades as a nurse, and almost 14 as a palliative care specialist, supporting people through an extraordinarily difficult time has been a tremendous privilege for me. The most rewarding aspect of my role is transforming a room filled with grief into one where loved one’s smile through tears as they share cherished stories.
As a funeral celebrant I will do my best to honour your loved one by relaying treasured stories that leave friends and family feeling grateful and fortunate to have been a part of their life.
If you yourself are facing a terminal illness and wish to be in full control of your funeral ceremony then I would be honoured to work alongside you to create your own farewell. I will do my absolute best to deliver this ceremony on your behalf when the time comes.

Why choose Lucinda for your funeral?
I approach every ceremony with sensitivity, respect and a heartfelt commitment to celebrating your loved one and sharing just how special they were and still are.
If you are looking for a funeral ceremony that is uplifting, meaningful and deeply personal to your irreplaceable loved one, that celebrates them in their entirety, including their funny little foibles as well as their achievements, then I’m your girl.

A warm, comforting and professional light in the darkness
Lucinda has a warmth that was both comforting, consoling, and infectious. From start to finish, she was a truly welcome presence when navigating the sudden passing of my late father. From the moment we first spoke, to our face-to-face meeting, to the various emails we sent back and forth, Lucinda attentively and patiently listened to all the stories about my dad, welcoming relatives to choose whatever format they found easiest to share their memories: face-to-face, a phone call, writing out bullet points, etc. Like a wizard, she then took all these sources and weaved them into a service that celebrated my dad’s life in a way that respected and celebrated his memory, while balancing the love of everyone involved.
Do not hesitate to work with Lucinda. Having her on your side as you navigate losing a loved one is a gift you won’t regret.
Celebration of my brother’s life
Lucinda’s care and gentle nature in assisting us to make my brother’s celebration of life is exactly what he would have wanted. The switch of thinking of a melancholy event to a celebration of life was hugely helpful and uplifting. Lucinda works in palliative care and it shows. She has a deep understanding of what you ate going through. Her advice in writing a eulogy and coordinating with others was superb. She has an incredible gentle warmth that encourages you to ask any question. She is prompt to answer emails and is encouraging with feedback.
She has been so superb that I have asked her to lead my brothers internment of ashes as I know it will be a warm event to look back on with love.
Thank you Lucinda.
A wonderful celebrant
As many have described here, Lucinda is a very special celebrant. In fact, a very special human being and one I can gladly highly recommend.
I felt personally blessed when the winds carried Lucinda our way as I was faced with the seemingly impossible task of planning my beloved mother’s funeral within 2 working weeks of her death, in the run up to the Christmas holidays. Perhaps those reading this feel like we did, exhausted after my mother’s painful and protracted decline, and needing a truly compassionate soul with whom to collaborate on the complex task of creating a timely and meaningful ceremony. Lucinda engaged fully with my strongly-felt aim to honour in fullness who my mother was: her personality, humour, interests, depth of character… from a perspective beyond those directly mourning her and so represent my mother’s whole life experience, from her beginnings to the end of her life. Importantly, we needed wise and compassionate hands to navigate the diverse needs of those left behind, some only beginning to face up to their individual losses at this very early stage of the complex mourning process, one that takes a different path for each individual depending on their own relationship with those that have passed.
As a therapist myself, who has witnessed the profound and lasting impact on people whose mourning has not been well supported or managed, I found Lucinda to be exceptionally generous and empathetic especially with her time and focus. Her background in palliative care was both reassuring and at play throughout. Like a ‘Good Mother’, she was highly attentive to capturing the thoughts and wishes of immediate family via email, telephone or video, with authenticity and gentleness. Lucinda’s initial meeting around my kitchen table was memorable and wonderful; we invited my mother to join us in spirit and the visit was full of laughter, stories, tears and even good initial planning – in sum, like a visit from a very good friend.
The day went seamlessly, Lucinda masterfully navigating any hitches caused by Storm Darragh, ensuring that all – those reading or live musicians, as well as attendees – were as comfortable as they could be and invited to focus their attention on their own relationship with our mother.
So many of those that attended my mother’s funeral, in person or by video link, described it is ‘a beautiful ceremony’. And that was just like my mother – full of beauty. Lucinda is, in my view, a beautiful person whose contribution was immense in ensuring such a challenging process and event would become a supportive and beautiful resource as I remember my mother.
