I am blown away by the funeral service Graham recently delivered for us. We wanted something a bit different, with real 'celebration vibes' whilst keeping things respectful with a bit of the traditional thrown in! As a family, we were not expecting to have to do this and didn't really know where to start, so on a few people's recommendations I contacted Graham. From the very first conversation I knew we had made the right choice. We were made to feel so comfortable with our choices from music to tributes to dress code! Graham was fab in his warm and sencere delivery on the day of the service, so many people said to me after that he was 'perfect'. Graham, we can't thank you enough ♥️

We've had the unfortunate experience of having both parents' funerals within 4 months of each other, and Graham was our Celebrant for both occasions.
Graham is really good at his job. He makes each event sound personal and friendly, yet 'official' and proper at the same time.
He takes time to ensure he has details of the deceased person's personality and family correct.
He wears beautiful 3-piece suits and, if your deceased person has a favourite colour, Graham will wear a tie and hankerchief to match that colour.
These small and individual touches were hugely appreciated.
Graham also has a clear voice and when reading out the service he hits the right notes of sincere, personal, friendly and formal.
Thank you, Graham. That should be it for funerals for a little while; however, if our family have weddings or funerals again in the future, it will definitely be you we'll be calling upon.

Graham delivered a fantastic wedding service for us. He was very easy to communicate with before the day, and gave us lots of great ideas to create a personal and unique ceremony. Would highly recommend!

An absolute pleasure to have Graham as our celebrant when my husband and I renewed our vows recently.
Graham was so professional at every moment and really understood what we were trying to achieve. I would recommend Graham to anyone 😊🤩

We can’t thank Graham enough, it was such a personal and joyful ceremony. Our guests loved it, we loved it and I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Graham to anyone.

Graham started our wedding day on an absolute high!
From finding Graham via an online search, we’ve been so happy with our choice to have Graham as our celebrant. Graham took the time to meet via Zoom before booking, without any pressure, giving us the opportunity to ensure Graham would carry out our ceremony.
We met up with Graham a month before at a local pub to chat through options for our ceremony and to get to know each other. By the next day, Graham had written up our whole wedding ceremony script and it was perfect. Graham is a friendly guy, with a sense of humour (something that was important to us).
Our ceremony on the day was perfect, Graham arrived on time and coordinated his tie with our colour scheme and styling.
So many of our guests complimented our ceremony and how perfect it was, which meant a lot as we wanted it to be special but also with a great balance of the ceremony content. Given that our ceremony was not a legal ceremony, we appreciated the option of ‘signing a certificate’ which made guests not even question it.
Thank you Graham!

Graham is a truly outstanding celebrant, I really can’t recommend him enough.
He conducted my Grandmother Rubys funeral which was a true celebration of her amazingly long life having reached the unbelievable age of 101.
We cherished her dearly and obviously wanted it to feel special and reflect the incredible person she was.
Graham spent an immense amount of care and attention, ensuring that he knew Rubys personality, her life story and her love and dedication to all of her family.
I still can’t believe all the small details he went into, it was like he had known her as a personal friend. He made an emotional and upsetting day a true celebration of the lady we all loved and for that my family and I will always be eternally grateful for everything he did for her. Graham gave her the send off she truly deserved and was genuinely a real comfort to all of us. Thank you so much Graham, we will be forever grateful to you.

Can’t recommend Graham enough, he was genuinely so sympathetic, kind and personable dealing with our family funeral arrangements and service. Professional throughout yet convivial when appropriate. Thank you so much Graham and very happy to recommend. X
