“I believe it is of innate human importance to make meaning at these profound landmark moments in our lives” Hazel Osborne
I am a celebrant based in Powys offering heartfelt bespoke non religious or multi-faith ceremonies.
Ceremonies are designed with you and are held with a warm, soulful approach to enable all present to relax and celebrate this important moment.
I am passionate in holding this profound and creative space inviting people to make something really meaningful and unique to them, connect to each other and celebrate their love.
In this fast paced world it is more important than ever to take a moment to connect to each other and acknowledge what matters to us and I believe it is of innate human importance to make meaning at these profound landmark and special moments in our lives.
I have been facilitating ceremonies since 2014 providing a safe creative space for groups of all sizes, there is often laughter and tears whatever the reason for the ceremony.
My service includes an initial meeting where I will find out what is important to you, asking you about your vision for the ceremony, what you might like and how you would like the day to run. I then write a first draft document, which is usually passed for feedback up to three times before being finally agreed a minimum of a week before the day. During the consultation process I will take you through points to consider all angles of the day and support you to make all the important decisions well in advance of the event. On the day I will speak with anyone who is involved with the ceremony to make sure it all runs smoothly, enabling you to relax and focus only on your part, with some ceremonies eg weddings a rehearsal is very useful for all involved wherever possible.
It is my honour and pleasure to serve people in this way and I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Contact me on [email protected]
Fee’s vary dependant on the type and size of the event and distance from my home. Costs begin @ £150 for funerals and birth blessings, £250 for weddings and civil partnerships. £200 for community events.

All good wishes
