Together, we will tell their story.

Celebrating Lives:

Together, We Will Tell Their Story.

As a qualified independent funeral celebrant, it will be my privilege to work with you to create a personalised and meaningful ceremony that truly honours the life of your loved one. I believe every individual’s life journey is unique: filled with moments of love, laughter and significance. Together we will ensure their story is told with affection, compassion and respect.

Where Every Story Matters

Every life is a tapestry woven with experiences, memories, and connections. The story of your loved one is a testament to their life’s journey and the impact they've had on those around them. By sharing their story, we preserve their legacy and honour the essence of who they were.

How We Work Together

As your celebrant, I will work closely with you and your family to understand and honour the life of your loved one. Through heartfelt conversations and careful listening, we will weave together the threads of their story to create a ceremony that truly captures their values, qualities and personality.


Celebrating Life Through Ceremony

When a loved one dies, it is important to honour their life and legacy through a meaningful ceremony. Celebrating a loved one’s life in this way allows family and friends to come together to remember the good times and share fond memories and experiences.


Through readings, rituals and reflections we will pay tribute to your loved one, highlighting the positive impact they had on others.


Through ceremony, we create space for remembrance, reflection and acceptance, and an opportunity to come together to find solace in shared memories and a binding love.


Get In Touch

If you are ready to begin the journey of celebrating your loved one’s life, please do not  hesitate to contact me. Together, we will ensure their story is told with dignity, respect, and the love it deserves.

Helping you to tell their story

As a qualified independent funeral celebrant based in North Ayrshire, I am dedicated to creating a ceremony that reflects the unique personality, values and beliefs of your loved one. I believe every life is worth celebrating and I will strive to create a ceremony that truly captures the essence of their life’s journey. 


My goal is to bring creativity, empathy and compassion to every occasion and to provide a flexible and inclusive approach, allowing you and your family and friends to have the ceremony you want. A ceremony that truly captures the personality, qualities and values of your loved one and will be remembered forever.


My calm and personable manner will not only make you comfortable and relaxed during our meetings, it will provide confidence you are in safe hands throughout the planning process and during the ceremony itself. 


I believe in the power of storytelling. I will listen to your stories, memories and anecdotes of your loved one and weave them into a heartfelt tribute that will leave a lasting impression on all who attend. 


Together, we will tell their story.
