Hi, I’m Lisa and I am a family celebrant living in Devon, but working across the South West of the UK. One of my passions is ‘funerals’ but not in a sad or morbid way. I am a great believer in the power of a ‘good’ funeral or Celebration of Life – whichever is most...

Lisa was our celebrant for our wedding ceremony at Rockbeare Manor. Her speech was absolutely beautiful and she made our ceremony absolutely magical. The amount of time and care she put into getting to know us and making everything so personal was absolutely incredible, she truly went above and beyond! We also love the gift box she gave us with the vows framed and her speech inside, we will certainly treasure this forever. Overall we couldn’t have had a more perfect ceremony thanks to Lisa, thanks so much!

Flawless from start to finish. 3 days before our wedding our original celebrant (a family member) pulled out due to health reasons. After many stressful posts and calls trying to find someone Lisa popped up. From the get go she calmed us down, and supported us through what was an awful day and even ended the initial contact with a little pep talk to create some calm. Later that evening we had a second call with Lisa where we decided that she was the one for us, she was a good price and just all round the vibe we got from Lisa was like she was part of the family. She was happy enough to incorporate some of our original celebrants words and within 24 hours had not only saved the day but had put together an amazing script in which she shared with us to make sure we was happy. She offered to bring any last minute things we had forgot or needed and was just all round a wonderful person. The day came and she brought fun, laughter and calm to us all. The ceremony was flawless and we had so many compliments of how great it was, how there was so many personal touches relevant to us and not just a generic speech from a registrar. If we was to redo our day then Lisa would 100% be first on the list. Would highly recommend because if that’s what she can achieve in 24hrs then the possibilities are truly endless in what she can achieve with more time. The little box she puts together for you to have as a keepsake is lovely too. The perfect final touch. Also A big shout out to Dave for his help with live streaming the ceremony to our family member who was unable to attend due to health reasons meaning that the rest of our guests could fully enjoy and embrace the moment. We can’t thank you both enough for your services and would genuinely recommend you to anyone looking for that personal touch and a great celebrant. Chris and Kayleigh xx P.s we hope you liked the helicopter 🚁 😂

Initially, we had a friend who intended to lead our non-legal ceremony (legal bit was already done). But as our wedding neared, he was just too nervous. As a last resort, I turned to Dorset Weddings Facebook group and called out for a celebrant. Lisa responded and sent me a link to her website where I could share with her the details of what kind of ceremony we wanted. After a phone call discussing this in a bit more detail, we were very pleased and proceeded to book with Lisa. What a weight off my mind with only 2 weeks until our wedding! Everyone commented on how great she was, her energy, the way she lead the ceremony. Lisa even provided a speaker and mic for the ceremony, which made life easier for our DJ. We love the keepsake gifts, loved the ceremony, loved meeting Lisa. Would highly recommend her services.

We will always remember her for her priceless input into such an important service. The whole family would highly recommend her . Thank you so much Lisa, keep up the good work ❤️

Mark James

Lisa has been a wonderful celebrant, but also an amazing person and we hope, a friend too. Both Kirstie and I had the most wonderful Hand fasting day, thanks in part, but a large part, to her efforts, kindness, energy, and amazing presence. We both strongly recommend Lisa as a celebrant and can’t describe how wonderful she is.

Susan MacDonald

Lisa was the most wonderful celebrant , after the loss of my beloved mum she helped use crest the most wonderful service which was so personal and beautiful . I would recommend Lisa highly .

Karen Chilton

What can we say but WOW Lisa is a truly wonderful, bubbly person who has an absolute passion for what she does as a celebrant. She guided us through everything we needed to know and do when she officiated our wedding at the weekend. It was truly special and personal occasion and was definitely a talking point of the day. She came up with some wonderful ideas that added that something extra, she calmed my nerves and understood the version of what we wanted. Thank you so much Lisa, and Dave of course who helped out. We would 110% recommend Lisa if you are thinking of a celebrant wedding service. I have already told her she is booked for my funeral ha ha.

My family and I would like to thank you most truly for all your hard work and commitment that made the profound loss of my wife, our children's mother and their children's grandmother more bearable and memorable - for all the right reasons. Your skill and commitment in working closely with my family to create a truly personalised and unique service was exceptional and it was a pleasure working with you. It resulted in a wonderful day; one that we will never forget, nor will we ever forget the major part that you played in managing it. We also had lots of wonderful, positive feedback about you from our and her friends. And I am especially grateful for your reading of my words. It was exceptional. Thank you most sincerely. I know that my wife agrees wholeheartedly. Paul Allan

Lisa is amazing, we managed to pull together a ceremony in under 2 weeks (wouldn’t normally recommend) but our circumstances meant we needed to and Lisa was there to guide us and support through the whole thing! Super responsive, and made the whole day so special! Highly recommend!
