​Welcome

What can be included in a Celebrant led ceremony ?

30/11/2021

You can have whatever you want in your ceremony; after all, it is YOUR day. You can include music, readings, poems and meaningful actions such as lighting candles or exchanging gifts.

Some couples ask about inclusion of religious content.  The difference between an Independent Celebrant and a Humanist ceremony is that Humanist's do not include any religious content but as an Independent Celebrant I am happy to include this if you wish.

Your day - your way.

Why choose an Independent Celebrant to conduct your ceremony.

A registrar, like a church, will have a limited choice of what can be included in your ceremony. You can ask for certain words, poems, and readings to be included, but often there are restraints on time and around what can be said.

​A Celebrant creates a unique ceremony every time and no two ceremonies are the same, just as no two couples are the same.

Five steps for creating a successful  partnership

3/11/2021

​Long and satisfying relationships take time and effort on the part of both partners.  The rewards for doing this repay the effort and then some.  So how can you start on the path to creating a successful partnership which will stand the test of time ?
 
Steps
  1.  Look for the things which interest and delight you both.  Plan to do these on a regular basis and talk about what you plan to do or have done regularly.
  2. Respect and treasure your differences.  It would be very boring if we were all the same but taking time to understand a partner’s approach to life and personality will help deepen the bonds you share.
  3. Be patient and learn to see things from your partner’s point of view.  With an insight into their thinking then you are more likely to be able to have meaningful discussions when your viewpoints differ.  After discussing allow each other time to reflect on what was said and see if you can find the middle ground
  4. Share your feelings and listen to your partner.  It is easier to address a problem if you talk regularly than waiting until a situation reaches melt down.
  5. Learn to say thank you and do it often.  We all like to feel appreciated but sometimes life is hectic and we forget to thank those nearest to us.

    Choosing a Celebrant to help you create that special ceremony is an important step towards making your occasion a really memorable one.  Why not take advantage of the free initial meeting I offer ?  I believe it is important  to meet informally to discuss your ideas and what I can offer.  Meeting also gives us an opportunity to explore the type of ceremony that would best suit your needs.
