“Sarah was the celebrant at my mums funeral. She was outstanding from our very first conversation.
Sarah kept in touch with us on the run up to the funeral, giving us compassion and support, and much needed hugs. She listened to us and worded the service so much better than any of us could have done.
The service was outstanding she brought mum into the crematorium with us, capturing all of mum. Even down to bringing in mum’s final tea.
Thank you Sarah so much, for making a very hard day, a day we can remember - although with sadness with love too.”

Sharon Orr
“From our first phone call we knew we had found the right person to conduct mums funeral.
You were warm and approachable and instantly felt like a family friend which was invaluable at such a difficult time.
You spent time with us to really get to know what kind of a person mum was and, after communicating with us to ensure everything about mum was included, your words at the funeral were just perfect. Your phone call the day before the funeral was very thoughtful and much appreciated.
Your support enabled us to have the funeral that mum would have loved and we shall always remember this.
Thank you so much - Sharon Orr.”
Emma Long
“Thank you so much to Sarah for making a difficult time so much easier, with her kind words and support to create a memorable funeral for my Aunt.
Sarah took time to get to know our family and write a very meaningful eulogy and order of service.
We would highly recommend her help to others.”
Penny Sharratt
“Sarah was the celebrant at our Mum’s funeral.
From start to finish Sarah was exceptional guiding us through the process and ensuring everything was perfect on the day.
We live a distance from Wiltshire, so Sarah kindly arranged for our preparation meeting to discuss Mum, and her life was completed via Teams. Sarah listened carefully to our wishes and spent a considerable amount of her time communicating with us to ensure she had captured everything we wanted.
We met Sarah for the first time at the service; this did not matter as Sarah is such a compassionate, capable communicator with an enthusiastic sense of humour we felt like we had known her years! All those present commentated on the lovely words delivered by Sarah. She was very also supportive and kind helping us get through our readings at the service.
Sarah is a wonderfully warm person who exudes confidence which is exactly the support you need when organising your Mum’s funeral.
We will be forever grateful for Mum’s fantastic send off.
Thank you, Sarah.”
Liz Evans
“Sarah was the celebrant at my mum's funeral service.
She was absolutely amazing and we could not have wished for anyone better. She visited us at home and was really thorough, getting to know mum's life.
Her words during the service were well presented and thoughtful and she helped us to have a service we hope our mum would have been proud of.
Although it was only a small service, everyone who attended, or watched the live stream, gave high praise to how it was conducted.
Thank you Sarah xx”.
Alanna Heywood
“I cannot praise Sarah enough, she is a wonderful person 😊 we had requested an unusual service for the passing of our amazing mum not thinking it would be completely possible, Sarah was suggested to help us, and boy did she do our mum justice.
Sarah listened to everything we had to say about mum and went out of her way to research and study her beliefs and wishes. With a full understanding of how we wanted the service to be laid out, Sarah delivered!!!
We were so impressed and our mum would have been very proud 😊
Thanks again Sarah, our family will forever remember your kindness, professionalism and dedication to giving my mum the best send off we could have asked for.” xx

“Sarah was the perfect amazing grace during our time of loss.
Sarah seamlessly offered warmth and compassion, throughout my Dads celebration of life.
Sarah undoubtedly worked incredibly hard, and went beyond our expectations. She worked collaboratively with us and listened intently from beginning to end, making Dads celebration of life special.
We were so privileged to be offered, a unique compassionate celebrant who provided care and love throughout.
Working endlessly, she paid attention to detail during the service, placing dads favourite pint on his coffin, this offered humour and warmth, what a lovely gesture.
A massive thank you, for investing your authentic, professional self - we have been blessed with your kindness.
Family and friends are genuinely grateful for your support, during their final farewells to Dad - aka Postman Pat.
Many sincere thanks, wishing you the very best.
Mandy & Family.”
Keith Roach
“Sarah was very easy and supportive to work with; putting together an order of service that was fitting for the deceased and the family was done with with both understanding and compassion from Sarah.
On the day itself, Sarah conducted the service with both dignity and in a way which was relaxed and fitting.”
Briony Carter
“We recently worked with Sarah for my Dad’s funeral and she was wonderful.
Sarah has such a warm and caring vibe and from start to finish was a perfect person to work with.
She spent time with us all making sure we understood all our options for the service, that we could include any and all ideas we had in a way that made sense and flowed and most importantly spent time finding out all about my Dad so she could honour him alongside us on the day - I know he would’ve loved her!
I honestly couldn’t recommend her more and she made a sad and difficult time feel safe and easy.
Highly recommended.
Thank you so much Sarah.”
Dawn Dell
“Sarah was amazing from start to finish. My mum passed away just four weeks after my brother lost his battle with cancer, I was overwhelmed with everything that needed to be done but Sarah took the pressure off and made everything much easier. From our initial meeting to discuss the service (and the big warm hug), to the service itself, she kept me updated and checked in regularly to see how I was coping.
The eulogy was beautiful, it summed mum up perfectly and Sarah even brought coffee and chocolates to place on the coffin for mum, which made everyone smile. Sarah really takes the time to get to know the person whose service she is taking, and it's those little details that count. I have had many messages from family and friends on what a lovely service it was, and what a warm and caring person Sarah is.
I can't thank her enough, she made a very sad day into a day of reminiscing, smiling and laughing about the happy memories we have.
Thank you with all of my heart Sarah, I couldn't have got through it without you, and mum would have been so proud ❤️.”
Tony Bruce
“Sarah was wonderful from our first contact and conversation about my Dad, consistently sympathetic and thoughtful, to the day of the cremation itself. She was approachable but also very professional.
She put our order of service together, communicated with the funeral directors and also recommended a piper to play at the cremation.
She spoke so well about our Dad at the cremation itself and got the tone just right. Her Scottish borders connection, where our family is from, made it even better.
Highly recommended - thank you Sarah.”
Amanda Hazell
“Sarah you were very understanding from our first meeting, throughout the service and after.
It was an absolute pleasure from the family's point of view to have a celebrant who took control of the service and presented in a clear and confident way and made everyone feel at ease. The touch of the cup of tea was so thoughtful which meant you really had understood the essence of my aunt.
Thank you so much and I will recommend you to anyone who may require your services
With kind regards - Amanda.”
Julie Angell
“I just wanted to drop you another quick thank you.
The service was absolutely heart warming and despite Mum being a particularly private person, you captured her beautifully.
Kind regards - Julie.”
John Phillips
“My family and I were so grateful for everything Sarah did for us during a very difficult time. From our first communication with her to the ceremony she performed for our Mum was everything we wanted and, more importantly, what mum wanted.
Sarah was efficient, professional and compassionate throughout the whole process, making the day go as smoothly as it could.
Thank you once again.”
Mark and Nikki Hall
“Sarah is amazing, such a warm and lovely lady who makes you feel you can talk to her about anything.
Sarah made my brother Paul’s funeral feel special and really got to know us and him, and was able to get that across to everyone on the day.
I would highly recommend Sarah—just a shame it’s for such sad situations.
Thank you, Sarah.”
