ABOUT

Hi, I’m Shelley & I am here to create your dream ceremony

I just love my job. I love hearing about the celebration you want to create, who you want to be involved and how we can make it perfect for you. At the heart of all of my ceremonies is love, from you to your family and friends and to each other. I create ceremonies full of emotion, full of personality and full of memories. No dull, forgettable, cringeworthy ramblings here!

 

I began my journey as a celebrant to ensure inclusivity and choice for all, in both weddings and funeral ceremonies, and this is still my core ethos.

I am a trained professional celebrant and a co-director of The Celebrant Circle,  where I am a celebrant trainer and mentor. 

I co-ordinate Celebrant Meet-Ups across the UK to ensure a network of support for others in this profession.  

I am also a co-director of Coffin Club in Margaret’s Memory, a community interest company that offers a safe space where the local community can learn about death, dying, grief, loss, and change.

 

DEDICATION & COMMITMENT

I am a member of the Good Funeral Guild and have adopted the Funeral Accord to ensure I maintain and develop my funeral work. I am passionate about my professional development and regularly attend industry training. I am a member of Dying Matters, Dudley where I organise and run events.

 I have completed TLC Training with the Soul Midwife School which gives me a deeper understanding of caring for those who are at the end of their life.

I regularly network with wedding professionals, so have a wealth of contacts within the industry, if you need any recommendations.

I continually update my professional development including becoming a Mental Health First Aider, LGBTQ awareness training, postvention suicide training, and Alzheimer’s friendship training.
