Alex Collis Celebrant

If you don’t want a religious ceremony to celebrate your baby then I would 100% recommend a naming ceremony and defiantly Alex to conduct this!! She was amazing!! She got to know us as a family which made the ceremony so personal!!

Alex was incredible from the beginning of our difficult process all the way to the end. She was very thoughtful, caring and understanding, especially since we wanted our service to be a little different. I can definitely recommend her without any hesitation.

From our very first meeting Alex put myself and my family at ease and quickly got to know what kind of Service we wanted for our lovely Mum. She guided us through the process making it all very straight forward and with just a few Emails we got the Ceremony to celebrate our Mum's life, just how we wanted. The Ceremony went perfectly, Alex spoke with empathy, sincerity and the right amount of humour that suited my Mum so well. We cried, we smiled, we even laughed and Alex was there if we needed her if we couldn't do our personal readings. We cried again as we said our final goodbye, but she did our Mum proud. I would absolutely highly recommend Alex without hesitation.

When I lost my beautiful son. I knew that I wanted his funeral to be a joyful celebration of life. Alex gave us the perfect ceremony that remembered our son as the personality that we all knew and loved. Nothing was missed out. She made us laugh and cry. Days afterwards people remarked to that they had dreaded the funeral but it had been so uplifting that they were glad they had come. Alex made what could have been a sad day wonderful and memorable.

Alex was the celebrant for our daughters naming day. From the first contact via email we felt that Alex was the right fit for us and this was confirmed when we met in person. Alex is personable as well as professional. She talked us through the all options and helped us create a very personal, and special day for our family. We are so happy we chose to have a Humanist ceremony to welcome our daughter into the family.

Alex was recommended by the funeral directors, contacted us and introduced herself, arranged a meet to explain how the ceremony would proceed in great detail, leaving us with a better understanding of a humanist ceremony. Alex ask all the right questions and let us talk about Connor and taking notes, over night Alex wrote a outstanding representation of Connor, if you had not know Connor, after Alex had spoke about him with feeling and emotion you would have left feeling like you knew him.The ceremony, as many people have commented on was all about Connor, and thats what that day was about.Alex herself was amazing from the start to finished, very professional through out, she was a very compassionate individual, who put us at easy, taking control and understanding of our needs, Alex's Eulogy of Connor captured his personality perfectly like she knew him personally, she even got a pac-man jacket to blend in with theme. when the family were unsure of what poems or readings to have on the day Alex kindly emailed us a few suggestions. over all we were very pleased with the way the day went and how Alex guides us through out the ceremony, i can not recommend a humanist ceremony highly enough, family and friends were extremely impressed.i would highly recommend Alex to anyone the wishes to have a humanist ceremony

What an amazing, personalised service Alex delivered at my dad's funeral.Alex listened to what the family had to say about my dad and spoke with such kindness and compassion at his service.Having a humanist celebrant service, in my eyes, is definitely the best way to celebrate someone's life after they have passed and remember them.

Alex conducted my Dads funeral recently (my first time at a Humanist funeral) she made it all about Dad.When I first met Alex, I liked her instantly and knew she would give my Dad a brilliant send off.Alex, you are amazing and we really appreciate what you did for us.I will definitely recommend your services.Thank you, Louise x

Alex was absolutely brilliant today. She was sympathetic, friendly and supportive.Thank you Alex for all your hard work and for helping us to prepare for the funeral today. You spoke so well and it was a beautiful service.

Alex took the time to hear us and delivered a service sounding like she was part of our extended family. We felt she had ‘our backs’ on what is the most difficult of days. Everyone said how lovely the service was. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
