‘Creating ceremonies woven with love, care and beautiful memories’
MEET HELEN
Celebrant ceremonies in Kent, London, Sussex, Surrey and beyond
Life is full of precious memories… from the joy of new beginnings to the beauty of love, and the comfort of cherished farewells.
My name is Helen. I’m an Independent Family Celebrant and a certified member of the Academy of Professional Celebrants. I am trained to deliver funerals, weddings, baby naming ceremonies, vow renewals, memorial services, interment of ashes ceremonies and much more.
So, what is a Celebrant? Many people aren’t sure. The party line is that a Celebrant is someone who ‘leads ceremonies or rituals, such as weddings, funerals, or naming ceremonies; typically trained professionals who specialise in creating meaningful and personalised ceremonies that reflect the beliefs and values of the people involved’.
But there’s so much more to being a Celebrant. A celebrant is someone who will guide you through your darkest days and through your most joyous. They will hold you with love and sincerity, compassion and warmth.
I would love to help you to create the perfect ceremony that you will look back on with a loving thought, a gentle smile, and a beautiful memory. Together, we’ll weave words and moments that honour your journey and create memories to treasure.

RECENT TESTIMONIAL
We lost our Dad in December 2023, and then Mum in October 2024, so we were reeling from the shock and grief of our loss. Helen wrote and delivered Mum’s eulogy at her funeral. She was calm, clear, funny and found exactly the right tone needed. I was so unbelievably grateful to her and so in awe of her strength and ability. I can say this because my loss was also Helen’s loss. Helen is my sister, and although we didn’t realise at the time, this was the moment she discovered her calling.
