Family Celebrant in Devon
Hello, I am Lisa – welcome to my world of celebrant ceremonies and celebrations in Devon and beyond.
Life is made up of incredible events that shape us, allow us to celebrate, showcase our love for one another, and eventually encourage us to say goodbye.
Based in the South West of England, my absolute privilege is to create a Ceremony for your event, whether it be a wedding, a birth, or a funeral, that is as unique as you are, or that recognises and pays tribute to someone special for all they were to you.

I am a Sidmouth (Devon) based celebrant, but I can travel to be with you – wherever you are! (Destination Weddings or Celebrations of Life are also welcomed)
Then, I will listen to your story, write your script and deliver a beautiful and unique ceremony that reflects all the elements of that story and one that honours all those involved. It may be a fun, upbeat, ‘out-of-the-box’ wedding, a moving baby naming ceremony or a Celebration of Life that does just that – celebrates.
