Hi, I'm Patricia
My name is Patricia and I am an Independent Spiritual Minister. Which means that I can create a beautiful and meaningful ceremony no matter if you have a particular belief, are of mixed beliefs, or have no beliefs because I accept and respect everyone’s principles. What makes a ceremony incredible is, it being distinctively personal and unique to you, by having the freedom of choice from where you have your ceremony, what words will be said and choosing the music you prefer. I work mainly in Perthshire, Scotland and surrounding areas such as Dundee, Stirling, Edinburgh, Falkirk, Glasgow, and Paisley. assisting couples memorialise their vows to each other in the presence of family and friends and honouring new family members with a Naming Ceremony and also having the privilege to officiate a Celebration of Life Ceremony. I would travel outside my normal areas if needed but would have to increase my fee to include fuel.
What's my ceremony style?
My style is to ensure that the client always comes first therefore feeling relaxed and confident that their ceremony will be as they would wish it to be. I always do my utmost to ensure that their needs can be met.

Why choose Patricia for your wedding?
Once I get to know your ideas and wishes it enables me to craft a bespoke ceremony for you as it’s my top priority to create a ceremony that is special, meaningful and unique for ‘your special day’ as I believe there shouldn’t be a ‘one size fits all’ approach. I will help and support you right up to your special day and if you have a wedding planner then I will liaise with them to ensure everything runs smoothly. You are in control, we will discuss everything in detail. The choice is all yours as to where and how you want to say ‘I DO’.
Naming Ceremonies
Patricia’s Ceremonies includes all types of Ceremonies. I enjoy meeting people and being allowed to take part in that special moment in their life.
A Naming Service of a child is a joyous and memorable occasion that can be shared with family and friends. It is also a delightful way to celebrate and welcome a child into the family, and for the parents to make their commitment to the child that they will be the best parents they can be and to explain why they picked the child’s name.
Friends or family can be designated as ‘supporting adults’ who will play a part in caring and sharing their love and knowledge. Your Naming Ceremony can be a Spiritual or a non-secular event, as an independent Minister I can carry out either for you. It can be held indoors in your own home, in a hotel or a community centre etc, perhaps outdoors in your back garden, in a park, at a beach, whichever is your choice.

If you choose me we will meet in person talk through the type of ceremony you would like and the location. I will supply a naming certificate for you to keep
We can discuss if you want to plant a tree, Create a memory box, Sand ceremony, a guest book to sign for the child to keep.
Renewal of Vows
Well my ideal couple are when they are so in love that they want to celebrate a special anniversary by renewing their vows to each other again in the presence of family and friends.
My favourite ceremonies range from Weddings to Renewal of Vows to Wedding Blessings.
A Wedding Blessing Ceremony is not a legally recognised marriage ceremony.
Some couples choose to have a Wedding Blessing because they already view themselves as husband and wife wishing to declare their love for each other in the presence of family and friends without going down the legal route.
A Vow Renewal Blessing is when perhaps on a special anniversary you wish to renew your vows and affirm your love for each other.
Wedding Blessings can also take place in a hospital or hospice with the correct authorisation.
Wherever the venue is (as long as it is safe) music, words etc., all will be discussed in detail and agreed prior to your Special Day.

£350
Why choose Patricia for your renewal of vows?
Whichever Ceremony the couple chooses, I always give my all, the same as a legal Marriage whether it be a Blessing, Renewal of Vows or the couple wanting to pronounce their love for each other. My preparation and diligence is the same no matter what Ceremony I am conducting to ensure that it is a memorable day for the couple and guests.
Funerals
I am and Independent Minister and work with Funeral Directors in the Perth area
Being an Independent Minister means that I can conduct either a Spiritual or non belief ceremony, whichever suits your needs. I will send you the tribute to ensure you are satisfied with the content and I will happily change anything you wish as it is your ceremony. There are no time limits on our discussions regarding the Celebration of Life Ceremony and I will work closely with you and with the Funeral Director of your choice to ensure you have the ceremony befitting your loved one. In the event that your loved one preferred a simple Cremation I offer Scattering of the Ashes or Memorial Ceremonies which allows you to have the freedom of choice to choose the location you desire and also offers closure for yourself, family and friends.
Preparing your own funeral is getting more and more popular and I also offer this service which helps remove the burden from your family.

I know that arranging a funeral is a very, very emotional time in your life and therefore I always ensure that I take into account the needs and emotions of you, the family and friends. We will have a discussion regarding your needs and rest assured everything is confidential. We will also discuss any music you wish to be played or whether a family member or friend would like to say a few words. I am compassionate, caring and trustworthy and work with integrity whilst creating a bespoke ceremony in honour of your loved one.

Fantastic celebrant for our wedding who went above and beyond
Patricia was absolutely brilliant in helping us plan and conduct our wedding. We wanted a small intimate wedding and she absolutely got it and delivered it perfectly on the day.
We were planning our wedding from the south of England (wedding in pitlochry) so had little chance to talk to the venue in person. In visiting the venue to check up on preparations, Patricia was so so helpful in telling us what they had planned so far, and more importantly what they had missed out so we could chase the venue up to sort the final details. In this, she helped immensely!
I would recommend Patricia to absolutely anyone looking to plan a wedding in the venue, I couldn’t think of a better celebrant.
