I’ve made the most of a break in the rain today to get out in the garden. (Belatedly) pruning raspberries, checking for any action in the pond, and spotting signs that spring is ready to be sprung.
I find this time of year rather bittersweet. There is, after all, hard weather to come for a while yet. But at the same time the days are getting longer and there are fresh shoots poking up from the ground.
The sweetness seems to win out for many couples, with February’s gloom overcome by the month’s status as peak engagement season.
If you’re popping the question this month or giving an answer then huge congratulations to you! Here’s to your sweet joy and many bright days ahead.
The gorgeous painting here is by my Nan, Lily Jarman, whose favourite month of the year was… February!
Services Overview
Wedding Ceremonies & Vow Renewals
A celebrant-led wedding or vow renewal lets you celebrate your relationship your way. I'll work with you to create a beautiful ceremony that reflects your journey as a couple, shaping the event the way you’d like it to be.
Celebration of Life Events (Funerals, Living Funerals, Memorials)
Everyone deserves a farewell that truly honours their story, and is delivered in a way that’s appropriate for their family and friends.
Script Writing
Need words for a special occasion? Whether you're looking for help with wedding vows, a funeral eulogy or a meaningful speech for any life event, I'll listen to your stories and create a unique script in a tone and style that feels right for you.
Naming Ceremonies
I'm currently training to offer naming ceremonies for all of life's new chapters and transitions, with plans to begin these services by the end of the year.
Other Events
If there's a moment you'd like to recognise that isn't listed on this site - a special birthday or anniversary, a big life change, the passing of a beloved animal - let's explore how to mark that event.
Whatever the occasion, I'll take the time to understand the story and capture the essence in a ceremony.
