Kathryn conducted a ceremony for my father in law and we incorporated a memorial to his wife and daughter and we laid them all to rest together. I couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant. As we didn’t want a traditional funeral we explained what we wanted to Kathryn and she created a perfect service. She incorporated everything we wanted and we even had a giggle or two (as requested). Everyone commented how wonderful and fitting the service was.<br>A huge thank you Kathryn for your warmth, comfort & guidance - you made our goodbyes a little easier.

Kathryn delivered a personal heartwarming service for us when we said goodbye to our Nan this week. Meeting her was such a relief, finding someone you could trust to ‘get to know’ your Nan and empathise with 3 generations was daunting but she did a fantastic job and I received lots of compliments about her. I would be extremely happy to recommend her and it was like I’d always known her as a friend. Thank you Kathryn x

Kathryn agreed to do a ceremony for my beloved cat and she wad honestly so understanding and non-judgemental! In fact, she praised the idea. Stating she’d love to do more as an animal lover herself. As a Christian I also wanted the service faith based, another thing we had in common! Everyone said how amazing she was after! So compassionate and supportive and even funny! She offered guidance in organising too as i’d never been to a funeral before. She’s incredible and I honestly could not recommend her enough! Thank you Kathryn 🩷

This lovely lady conducted (is this the correct word)? at my dad’s funeral last week. Not an easy family to deal with when family members estranged. Kathryn showed professionalism and no judgement throughout and made sure she delivered exactly what the main family members wanted. Kathryn is expressive, clear and compassionate. My dad would have been pleased. I fully recommend Kathryn. I had never experienced a celebrant before so was not sure. But spot on. Well done xxxx

Funerals are never easy, however what kathryn did was nothing short of inspirational. She told our grandmas life story with kindness, care and a deep understanding of her character. She told it so personably, she did so with the upmost compassion and she truly is a wonderful person, her soft spoken voice and how she broke the story up made it so digestible and easy to listen to.<br><br>Highly recommend for all occasions as I know she's just qualified in marriage arrangements too and I think overall I can't thank her enough, but I will just one more time because she deserves it, if your looking for that personal touch and a home from home experience at one of your loved ones final events then Kathryn truly is that person.<br><br>Thank you from the bottom of my heart, the most beautiful service for the most beautiful person.<br><br>Kind regards,<br><br>Jamie.

I will be eternally grateful to Kathryn for her perfect handling of my mother's funeral, she clearly had really listened to us, she fulfilled all we wanted the service to be, there were tears, laughter, memories and more. Her eulogy was beautifully and carefully delivered, she greeted guests with compassion and respect, and supported me and my family so thoughtfully and completely. I hope she'll be my celebrant!
