Weddings, Civil Partnerships, Renewal of Vows
Getting married or forming a civil partnership is one of the most important days of your life – and possibly the most nerve-wracking!
Funerals, Memorials
Losing a loved one is one of the hardest things a person will go through in their lives. Let me help to create a tailored memorial.
Naming Ceremonies
Naming ceremonies are becoming more and more popular as an alternative to a religious christening, for babies and adults alike.
“Thank you for everything you did for us. Your warm and calming personality shone through and your beautiful words were just perfect! You helped us to get through such a difficult afternoon.”
“Where do I begin to thank you for everything you did, to make mum's loss easier for us to deal with, you sat through tears and laughter with my family, but when you spoke at mum's funeral, it was as if you had known her.”
"The service was beautiful, the way you conducted it came over so lovely and clear, and everyone had nothing but praise for you that day. God bless you."
“We couldn’t have had anyone more perfect to conduct the service than you. Thank you, you made it so special. You’re wonderful and have a really inspirational way about you.”
“Thank you so much. The ceremony was perfect. You’re such a special person.”
“I just want to say a massive thank you for yesterday. You went above and beyond to make it that little bit easier for me and for that I will be eternally grateful. x”
“Thank you for giving Dad a fabulous service, and really looking after us. Family and friends said they really connected with you and one of Dad’s good friends said you were so lovely she just wanted to take you home!”
“Thank you so much for the service today, you were truly amazing and made it very special. x”
“I just wanted to say thank you for the service you did for my uncle today.It was really lovely, thank you - you certainly made it more bearable.”
“Thank you very much for making today so special, your words were lovely thank you. It was lovely meeting you”
“Thank you once again for such a lovely service. Everyone commented after on how great you were. It really is a gift to be able to present something so intimate to us, so eloquently to everyone else there. And with such sensitivity and grace. I think my Gran would have approved.”
“I just wanted to say thank you for yesterday’s service. You delivered it perfectly! You put me at ease right from the start. So a big heart-felt thank you coming your way. xx”
"They couldn't have sent a lovelier person. Antonia made the whole process so much easier."
“We came so close to choosing the wrong service for our beloved J. Then like a gift from above you came into our lives. Thank you! As long as there are people like you in the world it makes life without J that much more bearable!”
"Antonia has such a warm personality that makes people feel good, relaxed and somehow less sad."
“It might sound strange but that was the best funeral I've ever been to. I’ll be keeping your name and requesting that you do mine!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better send-off. It was absolutely perfect and every word that you said was spot on. Thank you so much.”
“Thank you so much for the beautiful service you did for us.You did an amazing job. It was so lovely and a fitting tribute.”
"He would have loved the ceremony. Every moment of it. He wouldn't have wanted to change a thing."
💖 “Before we met you, we knew the type of service we wanted but we had no idea how to achieve it. However, with your advice and guidance we managed to put a few words together. You then turned those words into a perfect service for us, with such poise and sympathy, yet a celebration of G’s ...life. It was very emotive and everyone commented positively on your presentation and warmth. Thank you again and we are very grateful for your help.”

Yesterday my husband and l celebrated 16 years of marriage. It's so important to celebrate these moments in life and this year we chose to share it with our best friend @kathysamuel001 who along with my oldest friend @julie.dickinson.3152 stood beside us on our wedding day. 🥰

Wow! 💜 "Seldom have I seen such a lady who can truly move people in the way you handled the event. You should be proud of how you come across. You show empathy, but in a most honest and sincere way. Special indeed. You're a natural. You inspired me."
