Hi, I'm Tara

Hello and a very warm welcome

I provide bespoke ceremonies across the Bristol, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire areas.

Huge congratulations on your engagement, your decision to renew your vows, or the addition to your family.

I absolutely LOVE what I do. I take huge pride in my work; I am meticulous about attention to detail and top of my list is listening to what you want in order to create the ceremony of your dreams.

I hold a Masters in English Literature and I love the spoken word. I use my background and knowledge of this to create a beautiful and unique ceremony.

I chose the Irish shamrock as my logo, not only because my Mother is Irish but because the three leaves stand for ‘Faith, Hope and Love.’

I am a member of the Fellowship of Professional Celebrants

This is an incredibly emotional time, so my job is to listen to what you want. My role is to write and deliver a ceremony full of love and compassion.

I will spend as much time as required to ensure that we make this ceremony a celebration of the life of your loved one. We can include personal readings, music and stories that make you smile. Laughter and tears both hold a place.

Most importantly I want to ensure that my role as a Celebrant brings you support and that the ceremony I deliver for you brings some form of comfort.

If you are looking to book me as a your Celebrant outside of a Funeral Director please email me direct in order to discuss.

Why choose Tara for your funeral?

Having lost my own father to a sudden death in 2019 I have incredible empathy and understanding.

I always want to ensure that I spent time with the families that I am working with in order to create a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony that is truly reflective of their loved one.

Wedding | 10/19/2024 | Old Gore Barn

Where do I start thanking Tara for being our wedding celebrant? From our very first Zoom call with Tara last summer, we knew she was the perfect celebrant for our wedding at Old Gore in October 2024. The venue team recommended her, and we instantly understood why. Tara’s warm, genuine personality and approach to celebrancy immediately put us at ease, and we felt confident she would be a fantastic support throughout the entire process. Her guidance and experience proved invaluable as we planned our ceremony with her. She took the time to truly get to know us as a couple, and together we crafted a ceremony that was deeply personal, meaningful, and perfectly reflected our relationship. Working with Tara to build our ceremony script was a truly special part of the lead-up to our big day, helping us focus on what mattered most – we really appreciated her guidance and experience, and the creativity that she brought to the process.

Tara’s professionalism was evident in every interaction, yet she also has a wonderful, friendly nature that made the whole experience so enjoyable. On our wedding day, she brought a truly special energy to the ceremony, making it even more magical than we could have imagined. She handled everything flawlessly, engaging with the venue staff, groomsparty and readers, allowing us to relax and fully embrace the moment. We can’t thank Tara enough for helping us create such a perfect wedding day. If you’re looking for a kind, professional celebrant (with fantastic shoes!) dedicated to crafting a truly personalized ceremony, we wholeheartedly recommend Tara. We would book her again in a heartbeat!

Wedding | 09/08/2024 | Rackleys Barn, The Chilterns

Where to start? Our timeline was tight but you took on the assignment of being our celebrant willingly and joyfully. In that short space of time, you got to know us as a couple and our little coffee morning in Daylesford sealed the deal.
Thanks to your guidance, pure talent and mindfulness, you crafted a ceremony that was not only personal to us but included everyone along the way. You gave us the confidence to write our own vows and the ring warming ceremony in particular added a profound and innovative touch of symbolism to our union.
You do not simply create ceremonies; you shape experiences and memories and we will cherish ours forever.
Many of our guests also expressed how much they enjoyed your presence and how beautifully they thought the wedding ceremony was delivered. You command a room in the most graceful way and we very much hope to enjoy your talents again in the future. If we could give 6 stars we would!!

Wedding | 08/28/2024 | Clevedon Hall, Clevedon

My partner and I stumbled upon Tara at Clevedon Estate’s wedding fayre. We soon realized that this was not mere chance and that some other worldly forces were at play to unite us with Tara, an absolute gem of a human being and stunning at her craft!

We hit it off immediately with Tara at the fayre and it did not take long for her to move us to tears just with the ideas she was proposing for our wedding ceremony.

It was a yes, yes, yes to Tara from the very get-go! She worked with us very seamlessly and with a lot of patience over the months that followed. We never felt rushed, pressured or forced to respond or liaise with Tara.

She helped personalise our experience to the T and never shyed away from suggesting ideas or letting us know which ideas would work better than others. Our virtual chats were always timely, very friendly, and always a treat when her doggie showed up on call too 😊!

The wedding day ceremony itself was one of the most beautiful experiences not only of our lives, but all our guests came out complimenting how it was a true celebration of love and the most engaging ceremony they had ever been part of!

All of this my partner and I can confirm was all down to Tara. Her patience despite our tardiness, her warm smile and hug to settle our nerves, her delivery of our love story and her direction of our wedding ceremony was exemplary, nothing short of elite, the highest of the high! In the language of Hindi, Tara stands for star.

Well, we can count our stars lucky that we were wed under the gracefulness of the awesome Tara herself! To all those reading this comment, my partner and I can vouch that you will be star-struck by Tara, just as we have been! Please choose Tara as your celebrant, you will not regret it 😊
