Such an honour to take this lady’s memorial service today and how kind to receive such a lovely message 😊

Hi Helen,
Just to say a heartfelt ‘thank you’ for all you have done in helping today feel so special - and very much the kind of day mum would have wanted. And for all your support and guidance during this very difficult time - and all your help in the wording of the tribute, and structure of the service, and in making those all important decisions.

So many people who were there today have been really complimentary about the way you spoke. Coming across as though you had actually met Dorothy - because you really understood the kind of person she was.

My dad and brother, and indeed all our family are so appreciative of you too.
Many, many thanks, Anne 👍😊

How humbling to be sent this e mail

Hi Helen

I just want to say thank you so much from Steve & me for leading the service of Steve’s dad, Bob, back in December.

This is the 2nd time, in just 8 months, that we have been lucky to have you there with us. Your kind word, and your caring nature at such difficult times really helped us. Losing a parent is hard, but losing 2 in just 8 month is even harder. You you were absolutely amazing both times. From the 1st contact, right through until the end of the service you were so kind, caring & helpul. You really did help us to get through the difficult times & made these times easier for us.

On both occasions everyone commented on the service. The lovely words & the sincerity from you. So glad you met Bob earlier last year & got to know the type of man he was as we know it really helped when it came to the words for his funeral.

Thanks again & if anyone wants a recommendation for a celebrant, Helen is your lady.

How kind to get such a wonderful review from Rachel & Matt regarding their Wedding Ceremony in November 2024

From our first phone call Helen was amazing. Having never been to a celebrant lead wedding before Helen explained how everything would work and talked us through step by step. She made the planning much less stressful and helped us feel at ease before the big day. Our ceremony was just beautiful and I can’t thank Helen enough for everything she wrote for us. She made it completely bespoke to our story, it was heartfelt and funny just what we wanted and more, it made it really special. So many people came up to me afterwards and said it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever been to. If you’re looking for someone to do your wedding ceremony that makes everything bespoke to you, one that everyone will remember and to be the highlight of the day, I couldn’t recommend Helen more! Thank you so much again Helen, you made our ceremony just perfection! Rachel & Matt xx

Always humbled to receive these 💗

Hi Helen. Just a quick message from all of us to thank you for helping us to celebrate Dad's life yesterday. These things are difficult and it's so hard to remember to celebrate when our loss is so recent and relatively sudden. Nonetheless we all felt it was a perfect send off and one of which Dad would be proud. Thanks again, and best wishes. Margaret, Caroline & Gill

Hi Helen I hope you’re well. I can’t believe it’s been a week already since we said our final goodbyes, to my Dad.

Always humbling 💗

Hi Helen I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the beautiful service you delivered for Mum last week. She was a very humble lady however, I’m sure she couldn’t fail to have been flattered. We had many many comments on how well you had captured Mum and the way she was dearly loved by all who knew her.
I would also really like to commend your professionalism throughout the time you spent with us and the work you did and I hope you will accept our praise indeed for a job very well done. Memorable.

Always humbled to get such lovely feedback

Hello Helen,
Linda and I wanted to say thank you so much for leading mums service on the 6th October.
We very much appreciated all the time you spent with us before hand , the time taken to alter the tribute etc when we asked and the way in which you took the service last Friday.
Many people have been in touch to say the same and how much they felt that the service , our choice of music , words , flowers etc were just right for mum .
Thank you once again

Thank you so much Vicki and Chris for your lovely feedback it was a dream wedding with a dream couple and such an honour to be part of your wonderful special day x

Well what an amazing day it was. Like any wedding day, you have so many hopes and dreams for it.
We had Helen for our ceremony and we are so glad we did. She was fantastic. She made everything about us. From our love story, to our own personal vows. Everything was personal and meaningful. She was supportive throughout the ceremony to us both and gave us excellent advice beforehand. She was absolute fantastic and would recommend her to anyone.

We can’t thank her enough.
