“She certainly had that calming feeling... As soon as Clare arrived the whole thing was so stress-free, for me, as soon as it was me and Clare up the front waiting for you... The questionnaires, what we thought about love, what was the reason we were getting married, what do we think about marriage, I think because of those questions we had a clear idea... Religious ceremonies, there's a real sense of powerful devotion. If you're not religious and you don't want necessarily a religious ceremony its more difficult to conjure that feeling, and it felt spiritual even though I'm not a spiritual person and that's what we were trying to get I suppose... It just had a real majesty about it and I think she just was perfect.”

“She really researched all the things about Molly and made it really personalised for us... Yeah she did ask loads of questions before we had the ceremony to make sure she knew about Molly and about us...It was nice how she wrote everything down and sent it to us before the day so that we could review it and make sure it was right, and even on the day she amended things just so that it just fit right with what we wanted...It was really nice as well that she came with so many suggestions of different rituals... And I liked the idea of the naming tree and we all did the watering, that was a nice touch...It's nice because we're not religious to be able to do something spiritual without overtones of organised religion... Very friendly as well... really friendly and welcoming.”

“I just wanted to say such a huge thank you to you for your time and your energy and your care, coming round to the house and spending time with in prayer with me, and meeting me at the park so we could chat about the design of it. I just think the whole thing was just so beautifully held by you. It really was just the most special day... and just the love in the room... and it really wouldn't have been what it was without you, so I'm so grateful...yeh... just the whole thing was just magical really.”

“From our first meeting with Clare, we knew that we'd made the right choice for a celebrant. She was warm and friendly from the off, and helped us to feel comfortable with what can be a scary event to plan!
Meeting with Clare at regular intervals before the day helped us to ensure that we got exactly what we wanted from the ceremony, with just the right amounts of formality and fun. Clare's friendly manner and eye for detail meant that we didn't forget any of the important things come the day.
On the day of the celebration, Clare's professionalism shone; she made us, our daughters, and our guests feel at ease throughout. We would warmly recommend Clare to anyone looking for a celebrant; we couldn't have hoped for more, the whole day was such a success.

“Clare brought lots of enthusiasm, understanding and ideas in the build up to our event and was able to pick our thoughts and transform them into a beautiful and loving speech.
The ideas we brought were met with excitement and we were encouraged to reach for them.
On the day of the ceremony, she managed to find the perfect balance between fun and reverence, lightness and warmth and was able to hold our wishes and be of real support to us. We had a really beautiful day. Thank you Clare!

“The highlight of our wonderful wedding day was definitely the beautiful ceremony that Clare wrote for us. She told our story eloquently and captured the essence of our relationship perfectly. The ceremony was exquisite, full of joy, love and laughter. The whole atmosphere was very relaxed and encompassed all of our guests, many of whom commented on the beauty of the ceremony.
We would certainly recommend Clare to anyone wishing to engage the services of a celebrant for their special day.”
— Jackie & Phil
“Clare wrote us a ceremony that was wonderfully warm, had a great balance between humour and poignancy and really felt like it was "us". Many guests said afterwards that our ceremony had been 'beautiful', 'joyful' and one guest said of all the many marriage ceremonies he'd seen in his life, ours was the best.
She was an absolute joy to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants a personal touch for their ceremony and day. Before getting engaged I'd never have thought that we'd go with a celebrant- led ceremony, but in hindsight we know we absolutely made the right call. She hit the balance between lyricism, solemnity and humour perfectly.

“Clare was absolutely amazing helping us prep for our day. Her calm demeanour and professionalism were beyond satisfactory and also made us feel reassured that she had our best interests in mind.
The day went smooth and we're happy to recommend her services. Her prices were more than fair which included advance zoom meetings which helped us get to know each other and how the day would go.”

“Clare held the ceremony for my daughter’s wedding. It was an amazing day and Clare was beautifully eloquent and reassuring leading the ceremony. At the pre-ceremony meetings we found Clare to be a good listener, she was able to quickly grasp and pull together all the ideas (of which there were many!) that my daughter and her fiancé had. On their wedding day, Clare delivered exactly what they wanted. I was really impressed with Clare’s work ethic and professionalism and I highly recommend her.”

“Clare conducts unique, poetic and beautiful ceremonies. She has magnetism, magic and gravitas about her in spades. She lent the occasion the necessary weight but also a lightness. Quite simply - immense. x”

“Thank you so much Clare for everything you did today to make it all so utterly perfect. The service was beautiful- reflective, funny, sombre and joyous all at once. You really took on board my ideas and wove them in alongside your fantastic ones. Thank you for making what could have been a really sad occasion due to the COVID-19 restrictions into something so utterly beautiful.”

“Clare held a Blessing Way ritual for me and a group of my friends before I gave birth to my daughter. I was touched by the thoughtful, tender and relaxed approach that Clare took when holding such a sacred space for me and my baby. She allowed each person in the room to be heard and to express themselves in their own way. I left the ritual feeling inspired and grateful as I journeyed into the next chapter of motherhood. Can’t recommend Clare highly enough as a celebrant for any special event.”
