Hi, I'm Jane

Hello, I’m a journalist and qualified independent celebrant. I’ve gone from news stories to love stories!.

I understand the power of words and the impact of a good story, well told. I believe every ceremony, whether it’s a vow renewal, wedding, or baby naming ceremony, has to capture the very essence of the people involved.

Having me to write, deliver and choreograph your ceremony means you can have it exactly how you picture it. Alpacas as ring bearers? not a problem, tequila shots to end? why not. If you’re stuck for inspiration and ideas, I have plenty.

The important thing is getting to know you, and your story, and weaving that into a ceremony that you’re happy with. If it’s not exactly how you imagined it sounding, we can make as many changes as you like. There are no hard and fast rules with a celebrant led ceremony, it can be as relaxed and intimate, or as jolly and rousing as you want it to be.

I’m happy to have a face to face, no obligation, chat about your plans, before you make up your mind. You need to trust the person enabling you to celebrate one of lifes milestones, and being a celebrant is a privilege.

I live in Quorn, Leicestershire, and am willing to travel to Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Rutland.

I’m a member of the Association of Independent Celebrants, and trained with the Ofsted “outstanding” accredited Civil Ceremonies Ltd.

What's my ceremony style?

I can conduct wedding and civil partnership ceremonies, once the legal bit has been completed. I also offer baby/child naming ceremonies, vow renewals and commitment ceremonies. The style of ceremony depends on you. You may be drawn to traditional rituals like hand fasting or ‘jumping the broom’ , or you may prefer something more contemporary like a wishing tree or ring warming.

Ceremonies that are inclusive and involve family and guests can make it really special and something everyone will remember. Readings, poetry and music are all powerful ways of declaring love and commitment.

Why choose Jane?

I’m the person people talk to in the queue at the post office. I’m approachable and easy going, but with a sharp eye and ear for detail.

Ceremonies can be emotional, as well as joyful occasions, and a sense of humour can help to make those transitions from a tear in the eye, to a smile on the face. I’ve always loved storytelling in all its forms, so what could be better than telling a love story. Let’s do it – Let’s Celebrate!

We can’t recommend Jane highly enough! Jane delivered the most perfect wedding ceremony for us, such beautiful, meaningful, perfect words. She made us both feel so at ease throughout the whole experience and took the time to get to know us. Just wish we could do it all again!

Naming Ceremony | 12/16/2023 | Leicester

We wanted to start off by saying a big thank you to Jane for being the celebrant at our daughter’s naming ceremony. You made it such a special day for us all. We absolutely loved your presentation style and on the run up to the day we appreciated you meeting up with us in person and keeping us in the loop throughout. We thought you were very personable and would definitely use your services again in future.

Wedding | 09/02/2023 | Willow Marsh Farm

Jane was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, Jane put so much time and effort into making the ceremony exactly how we’d hoped for! The surprise extras were a highlight! Jane took the time to get to know us, over a glass of wine very importantly! She really did deliver a ceremony which was personal to us and something we’ll remember forever! We can’t thank Jane enough for everything!
