EXPERIENCE

Our wedding was held on a beach on the Banks of Loch Lomond and it was a special, special day. A wedding perfect for us as a couple. My role is to capture and help create this for each couple I meet and who wish me to conduct their ceremony. Their special day and unique to them.

Ceremonies I have had booked in for 2018 have all been as unique and different as the one before- one was a beautiful simple ceremony with a select number of guests who the couple wished to be there as part of the day- another in a grand and beautiful castle in Ayrshire with a Scottish/Celtic theme, and yet another held in caravan park in Ayrshire! All very special days to capture precious, beautiful memories to look back on with smiles and love.

I have covered areas close to home and far and I am available for weddings in all areas of Scotland and beyond on request! Weddings bookings coming in so far for 2019 include Loch Lomond and Mid Lothian, East Lothian and the West Coast.

Sharing with couples is a wonderful experience with each building and creating days I so look forward to officiating and being part of with them.

As a Deaconess I am able to offer the full legal ceremony for couples be they religious, non-religious or something in between.

Funerals I have taken have been simple grave side funerals, small funerals and large and all been very different but each as important to those attending and organising the day.
A funeral to embrace and speak of the person who has passed - be they Spiritual, Religious, Non -Religious or otherwise - a day which serves them, their character, their uniqueness and this is what I set out to achieve and create where I can. I continually add to my growth in this field by attending courses, networking events and keeping up to date with organisations and events.

I am available for woodland funerals to folk standing up to clap to Zorba the Greek at the local crematorium as the person comes in if this is their or the families wishes! If it is right for them, their wishes and those organising the funeral, then this is as it should be.

Speaking with families before the service is a privilege and creating a eulogy that holds the essence of that person and bringing that to light on the day is an honour.

I love my role as a Celebrant and Deaconess and I look forward to many more ceremonies in the years to come. You are welcome to get in touch to chat over any ideas you have or are looking for to make your day as extra special as you are.

CEREMONY STYLE

As I have said each and every person and couple is Unique.
I am there to bring out their uniqueness and style and bring them the service they want- weddings can be held in a multitude of places and venues. I am at your service to help create a ceremony in a way you as a couple can feel captures you and brings lasting, happy memories.
I am an Ordained Deaconess and offer non religious or religious vows in a fully legalised ceremony- they can be very simple or grand with your ceremony perhaps on a beach, in a woodland setting,your back garden,or at a beautiful Scottish Castle - maybe even in the centre of Standing Stones, a riverside setting, Sacred Site - whatever you feel brings the essence of your day.

Funerals are a celebration of the person who has passed and I want to capture the essence of the person and all they were in the best way possible. A time to honour and remember them and who they were so that folk leaving felt the person was almost in the room/setting with everyone.

Baby Blessings/ Baby Naming Ceremonies are again according to how a family wishes the day to be.
There are a multitude of ways you can have your precious bundle of joy welcomed into the family and community and I am happy to discuss ideas with you. Maybe you have recently adopted a child and would like to welcome them into the family fold.

Vow Renewals
Couples often decide after a year, ten years or even 25 that they would like to renew and re take their vows to each other. Maybe their first ceremony was not all they wished for or maybe they just feel it is time to celebrate and renew the love they have for each other in a simple or grand way. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss any ideas or are looking for some to create your vow renewal memories and day.
