Hi, I'm Sue

Born in Liverpool and trained as a Registered General & Psychiatric Nurse. I met my husband on holiday and moved to Cambridgeshire. I have 2 boys and recently retired from working full time from the NHS. My family is very important and their love and support has enabled me to achieve my dream of becoming a celebrant. I enjoy keeping active, I am a volunteer with the Alzheimer’s society and a Flight Sgt in the Air Cadets. I love motivating people and helping them achieve their potential. My years in the NHS allowed me to provide care and support to many patients and their relatives. I want to continue my caring role and am qualified as a celebrant through the Federation of Independent Celebrants (FOIC).

What's my ceremony style?

My style reflects my personality, warm, caring, loving, affectionate and I have a wicked sense of humour and love life.

My ceremonies will be created to reflect what you want that being at the time of a wedding, or sadly when saying good bye to a loved one.

I am passionate about ensuring that your ceremony is one that you will treasure and leave you with long lasting memories.

Its your day so its Your day your way.

Weddings

My favourite ceromionies are those that involve the family, them being involved in carrying out readings or poems, or with children lighting candles etc. The unity of the family is important and involving them helps make the bond of marriage stronger with all uniting to support you on the day and for many years to come.

I also love single sex marriages and those I have had the privalage of conducting I cannot enthusise the total commitment each one of them have shown not just on the day but in the life they live. The love eminates from them and their unity is unquestionable.

I can carry your ceremony, At home, in a Marquee. An Evening Sunset Reception/Ceremony, On the beach, In your local pub, hotel or restaurant or a venue of your choice. Your choice of venue is open to your imagination.

You can add to your ceremony vows that you have written, involve friends and family, the use of candles, handfasting, roses, or jumping the broom.. I have birds fly in the rings, or the family pet. Remember its your day
Your ceremony can be religious on non religious and if you wish the ceremony can also reflect your culteral beliefs.

Naming Ceremonies

Naming ceremony is an excellent occasion for the celebration of new life the hope and joy and the commitment to support and guide.

I can create a naming ceremony that involves family and friends, and uniting the family in celebrating the birth, offering support and hope for the future of the life of the child.

I can create this ceremony in your home, garden, venue of your choice. You can include readings, prayers, poems that can be read by myself, your family or friends. I also offer the opportunity to celebrate using the Unity Candles or handfasting techniques. I aim to craft a ceremony that meets your beliefs, dreams for your child and a day that you will treasure in your memory.

The naming ceremony has no legal status so your baby’s birth must still be registered at a local registry office within the legal time frame.

Why choose Sue for your naming ceremony?

A naming ceremony is a great alternative to christenings. The ceremony can be fun and can if you wish include a mixture of faith elements.

A naming ceremony does not just have to be for babies, they can be to celebrate adoption.

Naming ceremonies can include the use of symbolic elements such as lighting candles, handfasting and the writing of special messages from all attending placed in a treasure box to be opened on your child’s 18th or 21st Birthday.

Renewal of Vows

Renewing your vows is a gesture of love and commitment that couples choose at special times in their marriage, for example special wedding anniversaries silver or gold. Some couples may not have had the ceremony they may have wished initially for. Difficulties in marriage, wanting a fresh start and sadly at a time when a loved one may have a terminal illness and wish to confirm their love to leave memories of happiness and joy.

I can create a unique and special ceremony that reflects your hopes and dreams for your future together. Sharing your love and commitment with the repeating of vows, exchanging of rings, involving family and friends in your unique renewal of your commitment to each other.

Vow renewals can also be used at a time when a loved one is sadly in the terminal stage of life as a way to help those left behind remember the final days with love and happy memories. This is espcially good to help with the grieving of a loved one and although sad the memories of the day remain forever.

Funerals

Life should be celebrated and as retired nurse I am passionate about acknowledging and celebrating life. My aim is to create a ceremony that reflects your individual memories. I will work with you to understand your wishes, those of your loved one, getting to know you and sharing your memories. This will enable me to create and craft a truly bespoke ceremony which has sentiment, music and words offering a truly fitting tribute.

Saying good bye is important and I will strive to ensure that the ceremony gives you ease and comfort at this time of grief. A ceremony leaving you with a positive lasting impression.

Iam especially passionate about creating ceromonies for the loved one who has suffered from Dementia. This desease may have taken the person many years before, however the life of the individual is special and should be celebrated and my experience in both personal and professional and also being a advocate with the Alzheimers society helps be understand and be able to create a unique and special farewell for you.

Wonderful ceremony

5 Stars
Alyson & David Howse

Wedding | 08/26/2023 | Old Bridge Hotel Huntingdon

We were delighted when Sue Hill agreed to be the celebrant for our marriage celebration. The process was smooth and our involvement was
welcomed from beginning to end. Sue came to our home, listened to our ideas and thoughts and provided us with guidance information. We had several changes along the way, adding, removing and altering items, readings and vows to suit our plans. Sue was so amenable, adaptable and open to any idea we put forward. The day of the celebration was perfect. Sue ensured she had time to chat to our family and friends prior to the ceremony; which our guests truly valued and appreciated. Thank you Sue!

Wedding | 08/12/2023 | Long Melford Suffolk.

Sue completely made our wedding! She arrived early to organise, set up and calm nerves – a true professional. She was a fantastic speaker and her words were highly customised and personal. Sue brought great, unique, ideas like first kiss/last kiss and the candles of unity to bring our families into the ceremony and she was able to sensitively include those family..who could not be there. Sue also gave us a beautiful memory box which we will treasure. We highly recommend Sue .
