Practically Perfect Ceremonies

Sadly and following a short illness I lost my aging father and like so many before me I was new to this and found help and advice from ‘traditional’ sources a little underwhelming and unimaginative. A couple of years later Mum followed Dad and I remembered Lesley and we started talking. Well what a difference! I wasn’t being ‘rushed’; I felt I was being listened to; I felt there were other options; the whole process was more calming and so much less ‘dictatorial’. No one in the family wanted to help with a eulogy. Lesley helped me with mine. I was ‘prompted’ to think of special tear jerking moments that I would never have thought of by myself. It was still my eulogy but so much better than it might have been and with no repetition from Lesley on the day. Teamwork in a very difficult time.

Amazing lady made me feel relaxed when she came too tall about my dad and even though I didn't have much too say she managed too create amazing service funny aswell as heart warming and thought of every detail I forgot would recommend

Lesley recently officiated at the ceremony for my mum’s funeral. From the outset, she was organised, empathetic and helpful with ideas and thoughts, which enabled us to construct the service we wanted.She sent regular email updates and organised really helpful zoom calls. Her past experience as a teacher meant she was practical when helping us involve our young grand children in the service.Comments from our friends and family included ‘the Celebrant made the ceremony very personal to Norma. I found the service uplifting’. And ‘the Celebrant ensured the service went smoothly and her eulogy was extremely fitting for the occasion’.Thank you making mum’s send off such a positive experience.
