A beautiful day for H’s @humanistnamingceremonies yesterday
🫧
Parental promises made and an original composition played by his dad
🫧
Five guideparents appointed accompanied by pledges and carefully chosen words
🫧
H’s big sister and brother had written poetry and wise words for him
🫧
Culminating in a bubble toast to H by all as “you’ve got a friend in me” was played (as you can see he took centre stage and absolutely loved it)

The best company, fun games, good food and a community coming together to protest… a day well spent

A BH weekend chock full of my favourite things 💕
Since my 🐣 fledged last year we’ve not spent much quality time together…
The beautiful town of Alghero is one we’ve been lucky enough to visit for over 20yrs…
Grateful for three glorious days of

Eight years ago today I began my Humanist Celebrant journey, beginning with naming ceremonies
🎈
I quickly fell in love with the role and so in 2019 trained to deliver wedding ceremonies
💕
2020 was well .. let’s not go there.. but with great support from Humanists UK I completed training for funerals
🌿
Being a celebrant can be challenging, self-employment is not always easy, there are quiet times, hectic times and the regularity of bookings is somewhat out of your control..It can also be a solitary role..
🙃
But..
It’s a genuine privilege to work with families and couples to help create meaningful and memorable ceremonies that celebrate and mark life’s important moments
💕
I’m grateful for support from my HUK friends and colleagues..and my family and friends who’ve encouraged me, and given gentle nudges when needed!
🥳 My colourful and joyous reel is to celebrate the 54 children I’ve had the pleasure of naming to date..
How lucky am I

Working from a different venue for a couple of days..
💕
Although I live in (and love) London I’m happiest surrounded by nature..
💕
I’m lucky to be working for a few days surrounded by the forest, deer, and critters..
💕
It’s cold out but bright and sunny and finally not raining..
💕
What’s not to love
💕
The only problem is I’ve spent the last hour looking out of the window and not doing any work 😎

2023…What a year!
#thankyou to all the families, and couples I was privileged to collaborate with in 2023
💕
My heart is full looking at this reel, how lucky am I that this is my job
💕
The final frame should have been me sitting with a 🍷 soaking it all in and reflecting!
💕
I’m here for your 2024 (and beyond) celebrant needs … so please get in touch if you are hatching plans or would like to talk through some thoughts and ideas
💕
Wishing you all a wonderful festive season and a happy and healthy 2024
