Words of appreciation...


It's always lovely to receive nice feedback from the people and families I support. As a celebrant, hearing these kind words following what is often such an emotional, vulnerable and so important time too, seems to bring even more meaning and resonance.

It really reminds me that it is a genuine privilege and honour to work as a celebrant. Thank you!

'Andrew really captured the life stories and memories of our mum. It was such a moving and uplifting service - a real, loving celebration of 102 years of life and a fitting way to say our goodbyes. Mum would have wanted her life to be valued and remembered with real affection, and she would have loved every second of Andrew's service.'

STEPHEN, CASTLEFORD


'By working closely with Andrew, we were able to capture the real essence of Lily's life. He really understood what she meant to us all, and helped us celebrate her life and memories through the telling of her stories. The love we felt as a family poured through every word - we'll remember the service forever.'

Barbara, Glasshoughton


'Andrew recently performed the funeral of my Grandmother in what could have been a difficult situation. However, he handled the matter professionally, with dignity and a personal touch which was so comforting and reassuring for the family.

The service was a beautiful, warm and moving tribute to a wonderful lady and brought huge comfort to the family. Andrew was the perfect celebrant for us and I would recommend him in a heartbeat!'

When I look back at that day, Andrew’s presence, his tone of voice and his aura
were some of the key things I remember. Andrew was so warm and so personal, yet
professional. He stood out and was memorable and that’s exactly what we wanted,
we wanted a service that was memorable.

Andrew made the whole process easy, he was so easy to talk to, asked all of the
right questions, made us laugh (and cry) and helped us to build a perfect script for
the service. Sometimes the pressure to include all of the right things and not get it
wrong is a lot for us to carry and Andrew took that away. He listened and was able to
create a really memorable story for us which was delivered perfectly through the
service.

Martin, Sheffield


I’ve never been to a service that felt so memorable. Everyone was saying what a
great job Andrew did, he’s a true storyteller.
