What a great, informative morning at Lancaster & Morecambe Crematorium open day today - a perfect opportunity to show the family where I work and help them understand what I do and why it is so important.

The brilliant team put on a range of activities that the kids loved, from thoughtful crafts to encounters with therapy animals from Life Between The Ears - which made a certain little animal-mad girl grin from ear to ear!❤️

The unexpected treat of fish and chips was an added bonus - as was meeting the lovely Matilda’s Mission, Abis arrangements and seeing the lovely friendly faces at Preston Ireland Bowker Funeral Directors.

Thanks so much to the team who made it all happen - and for always making us celebrants feel so welcome and supported. I hope you managed to raise lots for Matilda’s Mission🤞

✨ Kathy & Matthew ✨

This gorgeous pair had me belly laughing from the first moment we met. Their natural banter and tales of their hilarious adventures meant I knew their wedding would be a corker… and it didn’t disappoint! 😍

Their ceremony was full of humour as well as poignant, heartfelt moments - and I genuinely loved every second.

Every bit of it was wonderful - from the stunning location alongside the water at , the guests who were so friendly and chatty from the moment they arrived, to the impromptu involvement of a little boy who got out of his seat and ran up to the front to have a good look at the rings during their vows! (He approved…it was so sweet!) 😍

Kathy & Matthew’s guests were full of wonderful comments afterwards - one even came up to me in tears saying it was the nicest ceremony she’d ever heard 🥹

The couple’s kind words about their ceremony were something else….. (scroll for review ❤️)

💕KIND WORDS 💕

💬 I cannot thank you enough for Saturday. It’s making me well up just thinking about how wonderful you made our day. You were perfect, we could not have asked for a better person to marry us. Every word was said with love and feeling, and it felt like you’d known us for ages. So many people came up to us all through the day saying how amazing you were and asking where we knew you from and how long we’d known each other!! We were blessed with the weather and blessed to have found you. You were perfect. Thank you!! 💬

THANK YOU so much for choosing me, K & M! And thanks for having me xx

❤️ Joana & Alan ❤️

I’ve still not recovered from this amazing day in sunny, bonny Scotland… which may also be a contender for the most emotional ceremony I’ll ever deliver 🥹

The sun was shining, showing off in all its glory! The gorgeous venue was filled to the brim with colourful, happy blooms, twinkly fairy lights, amazing live music, bagpipes and a team of suppliers that couldn’t do more for our lovely pair 🥰

It was a huge honour to lead the ceremony for my beautiful friend and her dashing man, Alan - and I definitely lost control of my chin a few times (but fortunately suppressed the sobs! 😂)

Thanks for having me, and congratulations again Mr & Mrs Graham ###xx

✨WOW ✨

Sometimes messages and reviews hit different - and Grace and James’ words brought tears to my eyes ❤️

This gorgeous pair had the most beautiful day at and they had their heart set on their ceremony taking place in the fabulous (roofless) ruin. We went for it, despite the showers, and the ☂️ made for the best photographs!

Congratulations you two and thank you for choosing me as your celebrant! 🥰 X###

💬 *We can honestly say that Lara was one of the highlights of our wedding day and we are so glad that we had her as our celebrant...

💬*The way Lara told our story was ingenious and so insightful and she made the order of the ceremony flow so effortlessly. She is so good at what she does!

✨Paula & Ste✨

The weather was still scorchio for today’s late afternoon celebrations for this gorgeous pair ☀️

The sun was beaming down 30 years ago too when they got married not far away in Glenridding!

Today, we recreated the magic in .bridge.inn fab pub garden. Two friends read poems that were both touching and hilarious (!);P&S shared personal promises with one another that made every single person cry… and we involved their family and best friends in a sand ceremony that signified the unity, love and incredible support that has surrounded them 🫶

It was beautiful.

Today meant such a lot to them and I LOVED helping them bring their vision to life!

Paula said afterwards that it felt more special than her wedding day….🥹 Job done!❤️

Oh my days I’m excited for this one! ❤️

G & C are getting married at the beautiful next August and with G as a contender for the happiest bride ever award, I just know it’s going to be one of those joyful, unforgettable days! 😍

Thanks for choosing me as your celebrant✨

✨KIND WORDS✨

✨ LOVELY WORDS✨

Marie shared this kind feedback after I led her wonderful mum’s funeral recently ❤️

Sylvia was an amazingly strong woman and she didn’t mince her words! Using her colourful catchphrase to bid everyone farewell at the end of her service was a first for me - but certainly made everyone smile!

Thank you so much for trusting me and for taking the time to share these lovely words ###

⭐️ Kind words⭐️

Chris shared these lovely comments after I led his uncle’s funeral recently.

He dedicated his life to the railway, so we personalised the service to reflect this in every way we could.

Thank you so much for these lovely words❤️

And thanks to Preston Ireland Bowker Funeral Directors
