Just a few examples of creative elements.
There are many more, and we are only limited by our imaginations…

Handfasting
This is a beautiful, celtic tradition for a wedding or vow renewal ceremony. You might have heard the phrase ‘tying the knot’ for marriage, as this is an early form of wedding ceremony.
I will create a handfasting ribbon of colours chosen by you. During the exchanging of promises, I will tie the ribbon around both of your wrists to create an infinity knot symbolising the joining of your hearts and lives together. This is a beautiful keepsake that can be framed and kept as an ongoing reminder of your special day, love and commitment.

Flower exchange
This is a lovely way to include bridespeople and groomsmen or family and friends in your ceremony. Flowers are given and combined to symbolise the coming together of the couple and their respective family, friends and communities.
-
Ring Warming
This ritual involves passing your rings between selected family and friends to bless or warm them. People hold and say a silent prayer or blessing for the couple.
Rings can be tied with ribbon onto a beautiful cushion to keep them safe.

Including children, family and friends, and pets
I can create and support child-friendly celebration and funeral services that enable your loved ones to be fully and appropriately involved in the way that suits them and you.
