Hi, I'm Jayne

I love love, people and stories and have a reputation for being a chatterbox, a good listener, creative, considerate, and a tad dramatic – all of which are true and help me to be the celebrant who can turn your special ceremonies into cherished moments.
People fascinate me, I grew up in a huge multi-generational family full of characters and was an infant teacher for over 30 years working with children and their families from all over the world.
I believe that life is for living, laughing, loving, feeling and sharing, experiencing the joy of being together and the pain of being apart. Together we can craft the perfect ceremony for celebrating you, your love and your loved ones.

I now live in Dorset, having returned from living in France but have spent most of my life living in the Midlands, as far from the coast as you can get.

What's my ceremony style?

It has been said, that it’s a good job that there’s only one of me because the world couldn’t cope with two!
I am proud to be Me and believe that you should be proud to be you, whoever you are. We all have something amazing to give to each other and the world and these things need to be shared, celebrated and cherished. There’s no such thing as too much love, joy or choice in our lives , so lets embrace them.
Yes, I’m thoughtful and full of thoughts, I always try to hear and understand, appreciate and respect, consider and advocate. Throughout my life, I have experienced the joy of new life, the grief of loss, the complexities of love and the journey of discovering your true self and I believe that I can use this experience to create ceremonies that capture your love, lives and moments perfectly.

Why choose Jayne for your naming ceremony?

I believe that every life is for living, laughing, loving, feeling and sharing. Being secure in our own identity and being part of a family who accepts us and loves us is hugely important. Families come in all different shapes and sizes and honouring your name and self as a member of a family is an important part of belonging.

During your life together you will have experienced many adventures and seen many changes in each other and the world around you. If you’re a couple who want to share your love story to date with your family and friends in a unique and personal way during a ceremony that reflects exactly who you are now by doing things YOUR way, then I would love to help.

First, we will have a chat to start to get to know each other and talk about the two of you and your plans for your vow renewal.
I will…
– ask you lots of questions and promise to listen to you and hear what you are saying.
– produce a renewal ceremony that captures the couple you are now as well as who you were at your wedding.
– give you many chances to discuss the draft script with me so that you are delighted with it.
– help you to choose the words, music and rituals that are perfect for you.
– include your family, friends and maybe a few surprises in your ceremony.

Why choose Jayne for your renewal of vows?

I LOVE love and am a softy at heart. I married my childhood sweetheart in 1992 and know how it feels to marry your best friend but also just how much work you need to put into a marriage to make it work. Renewing your vows is an opportunity to remind each other about what it is that you love about your life together and share why you love them still. I will help you do that in a way that ensures that everyone leaves feeling the love, joy and WOW of a celebration like no other.

Funerals

I believe that every life is for living, laughing, loving, feeling and sharing. As we go through life, we each experience the joy of being with and pain of being apart from the people we love. A life well lived will be full of cherished moments and stories to be remembered and on losing a loved one these stories need to be told sensitively and appropriately. For a family wanting to honour their loved one in a ceremony that celebrates a life well lived and is a mix of tradition and individuality that feels like it’s giving you a giant hug, I would love to help you. Together we can create a goodbye ceremony to celebrate and remember them in a way that is uniquely for them and you thereby enabling you to move on in your grief and heal and cherish.

Celebrating their Love, Life, and Cherished Memories
Whether you choose a funeral, cremation, natural burial, ashes scattering or Celebration of Life ceremony to say goodbye, I am here to support you in whatever you decide to do while helping you to heal as you grieve and mourn.

After an initial meeting in person, or virtually to discuss your wishes and learn more about your loved one I will…
– listen to you and your family and hear what you are saying as I produce a draft script and advise and support you in the process.
– help you to choose the words, music and rituals that are perfect for saying goodbye to your loved one.
– discuss the draft script with you and we can alter things as necessary.
– be there to support you on the days before and after the ceremony.
– on the day I will deliver a farewell to cherish.

One that truly captures the life that your loved one lived, the person they were and their legacy.
