“I believe Sarah did an absolutely brilliant job. She had Mark down to a tee. It was absolutely great; she was really, really good.”

“Sarah was so lovely. From the moment we first spoke, she was warm, kind, caring, and compassionate.

She spent one and a half hours talking with our family a few weeks before the funeral service to gain a better understanding of who our Dad was. She even found the perfect song for him when we were struggling to choose music. 🎣

Sarah clearly listened to our stories, which was evident in her words during the funeral. Many guests commented on how wonderful she was and how lovely the service felt. Sarah took her time, spoke clearly, and captured Dad and our memories perfectly. Several guests even thought she must have known him herself. She added extra words, gestures, and touches of humour during the service that we were not expecting. This was deeply appreciated by all of us and truly touching. ☕️

Sarah called us the day before the service to check how we were and to reassure us that everything was in order. She has also said she will be in touch over the next few days just to check in. It was a very personal service during a very difficult time.

We would highly recommend Sarah as a Celebrant. She is most certainly in the right career, with her beautifully caring personality.

Well... such a beautiful soul. 💕

Thank you, Sarah. Annette, Mark and Stuart xXx.”

"Sarah came to the house to discuss the order of service for my dad's funeral. We were very nervous, but Sarah put us at ease and understood how we were feeling. She went through everything step by step, slowly and patiently. Nothing was too much trouble, and she made sure we were happy with the final result. She delivered a brilliant service on the day.

We would definitely recommend Sarah for all your needs.

Thank you, Sarah."

“So pleased to have Sarah as the celebrant for our mother's funeral.

Her calm and friendly manner was absolutely perfect and she went above and beyond to make sure it a was wonderful occasion.”

“Sarah was a ray of light at a dark time. She carefully guided us through remembering our loved one in the best possible way we could. Dad had not been himself for a very long time and she brought us a wonderful sense of peace with her translation of our ramblings into a wonderful service which everyone thought showed respect and humour befitting a very private, complex and well respected man.

My family and I would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah for her professionalism and humour as your chosen celebrant for any occasion.”

“We have had the absolute pleasure of working with Sarah on multiple occasions as a Celebrant at Odette Funeral Director, and each time she has brought warmth, clarity, and an unmistakable professionalism to the families she supports.

Sarah has a genuine gift for connection. She takes time to really understand the people she's working with, listening carefully and responding with sensitivity and respect. Families often tell us how seen and heard they feel by her - a rare quality, especially during such difficult times.

What truly sets Sarah apart is her ability to create unique, bespoke ceremonies that reflect each individuals life. Nothing is standard or templated; she takes every piece of information shared and weaves it into a meaningful service that feels personal and true. We consistently receive wonderful feedback from families who are moved by her words, comforted by her presence, and deeply grateful for the experience she helps shape.

Her support doesn’t end with the ceremony. Sarah continues to check in, offering care that extends well beyond the day of the service. It’s a reflection of her character and her commitment to doing this work with integrity and compassion.

We would recommend Sarah wholeheartedly. She’s a delight to work alongside, and we trust her completely to hold the space families need - with grace, empathy, and genuine heart.”

“From our first meeting with Sarah, where she introduced herself as a celebrant for funerals, to delivering the services, she has been a pleasure to work with.

 She is efficient, empathetic and has received lovely feedback from our families.

 We will definitely be introducing Sarah to our families in the future and look forward to a long working relationship with her.”

“Sarah is amazing with the families and takes time to get to know them.
Sarah is kind and compassionate and conducts the service with dignity and respect.
Looking forward to working with her again soon!”

“Working in the funeral industry, we need to have a lot of trust in the celebrant we are working with, Sarah has always gone above and beyond to support families in their time of need.

She has a wonderful nature and is always adapting her services to make them more personal. Sarah has proved that nothing is too much trouble for her, travelling distances to see families and supporting them throughout the whole process. Sarah's way of working has helped many families during the grieving process, we have had many compliments from family members regarding how empathetic and knowledgeable Sarah has been. It brings us comfort knowing our families are in great hands.”

“Sarah was very helpful and understanding as the celebrant for my mums funeral.

The service was just right.

We would highly recommend Sarah as a celebrant.”

“What can I say?

Sarah was wonderful understanding, compassionate and understanding.

Her wording was as if she knew our Lisa personally, it was so perfect.

We all appreciated how she conducted the service and we as a family thank her so much.”

“After meeting Sarah, it was clear it was a match made in heaven! Sarah just got us. She listened and asked all the right questions. Gave her time above and beyond, meeting our daughter and spending time getting to know her and how we wanted to include her in our wedding ceremony.

We couldn’t have chosen anyone better!

And we know who we’d like to book for our funerals now too 😂.

Thank you so much for making our day perfect!”.

“Sarah conducted a beautiful naming ceremony for our son. She really took the time to get to know him, and also what we wanted from the day, so create a ceremony that was so personal.

Sarah took on board all our additions, even ones sent rather late, and made sure the whole ceremony was a success.

Our ceremony was touching and joyful, exactly how we wanted it.

Sarah was really easy to work with, really personable and fast to respond”.

“Thank you because the thoughtfulness you show means more than you would ever know.

Thank you so much for your help and support, thank you so much for being there.”

“Sarah was the celebrant for our fathers funeral in August.

Sarah showed great compassion and was extremely caring throughout the time from initial contact and during the service.

She was very supportive to a family member who wanted to read a poem at the service at such an emotional time.”

“Sarah was quite literally the best celebrant we could have hoped for.

She very quickly got the idea of us as a family and made us feel so relaxed and comfortable from the start.

The planning was detailed and she really listened - we felt like she truly cared rather than this just being her day job.

The service which was planned was spot on and she spoke about Bob as if she knew him.

All of us came away feeling we had really had the chance not only to reflect on, but celebrate his life.

We absolutely would recommend her and would like to thank her for making a difficult time so much easier.”

“Sarah was lovely, so good at her job.

She did the service wonderfully.”

“Absolutely fabulous lady who delivered a service that was our mum to a T.

Sarah was compassionate and listened to every detail we wanted and what we said about mum and put it into words that we couldn't.

Sarah made everything a little easier to bare with her understanding and caring nature.

She gives good hugs too!

Thank you Sarah....I know mum too would thank you if she could.”

I would highly recommend anybody needing a Celebrant to use Sarah.

Thank you very much Sarah for doing a great job.”

Her no pressure, friendly approach put me at ease at a very difficult time.

The service was such a true reflection of his long life.

My sister and I had many comments from family and friends about your kind and professional manner.”

“Sarah was so friendly, she made a very difficult day seem more bearable.

After a long chat with the family Sarah frequently emailed or phoned to check on details and to ensure we were happy with everything.

The Eulogy she gave was wonderful and all we hoped for.

I couldn't fault her professionalism and her care of us and the memory of my husband.

Thank you Sarah.”

“Sarah was really lovely throughout the whole process, and supported my brother and me very sensitively.

She listened to our stories and experiences of our Mum’s life and created a meaningful eulogy and service that was beautifully delivered.

We’ve had lovely responses to our Mum’s funeral and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Sarah’s services.”

“Sarah was an excellent Celebrant, we could not have asked for better.

From our initial meeting Sarah was very compassionate and guided us through the whole process.

She comforted us in this sad, but yet joyous celebration of my mothers life.

I would highly recommend anybody needing a Celebrant to use Sarah.

Thank you very much Sarah for doing a great job.”

“I would just like to say on behalf of myself and all the family, what a fantastic job Sarah did for my father’s funeral.

From the moment we met her we knew we were in safe hands, she spent time talking to us and getting to know all about my dad and the life he lived.

Sarah’s warm personality made us feel at ease which made such a difference at such a sad time. 

Thank you Sarah you did him proud.”

Highly professional, managed to capture my brothers essence wonderfully in her words”.

“What can I say about this wonderful lady?

Very friendly and attentive, the eulogy she delivered for my late dad was 100% him, its as if she knew him personally.

I cant think of a better person to conduct a service.

From myself and family - a very big thank you, doesn't seem enough - but you were an absolute star.”

“I just wanted to send a quick email to say a massive thank you, for the wonderful service you provided yesterday for my dad.

I know all of those who attended left the crematorium feeling that it was a fitting tribute to him.

The service was heartwarming and humorous, which is testament to all of your hard work and dedication.

I know I speak for all of my family when I say that you made what was an incredibly emotional day just a little more joyful.

Kind regards and thanks again.”
