Still Twenty on the Inside

Nigella, Nanna and the Art of Growing Old Sometimes, there is such delicious irony in life! Just when you think you've acquired a little wisdom and perspective, along comes a six-year-old to deliver a reality check with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer. Last Saturday, my granddaughter, who has recently developed something of a fascination with The Great British Bake Off…...

Author and celebrant Julie reflects on ageing, beauty and identity, with humour, family stories and a reminder that growing older needn't mean fading away.

Unique Wedding Rituals & Bespoke Ceremonies | Devon Celebrant

So, you want a sand ceremony. You’ve seen the Pinterest boards: two star-crossed lovers pouring different coloured grains into a glass vase, creating a beautiful metaphor for a harmonious, inseparable union. It’s lovely. Truly lovely. But let’s be honest: unless you are a professional barista, pouring fine sediment while trying not to shake in front of two hundred wedding guests could result in a gritty mess....

Explore creative wedding rituals that reflect your unique love story, avoiding legal sand dilemmas and embracing personalized joy.

What Else Is There, If Not This?

Authenticity is a word that gets used a lot, and perhaps sometimes so much that we lose sight of what it really means. For me, becoming a celebrant brought it into sharp focus, because this is a role in which you meet people at the peaks of life and death, in celebration and condolence, at the beginning of something new or at the point of having to say goodbye....

Explore the essence of authenticity in celebrancy, where life's peaks and valleys demand genuine connection and integrity in every moment.

What does grief look like in a child? Sometimes it looks like tears - but sometimes it looks like play, laughter, watching TV or asking what’s for tea?We don’t need children to grieve in a way that looks right for adults…we need to give them a safe space to grieve in a way that’s right for them

Children don’t grieve like adults and that’s ok!

It would be wonderful if any of my clients or my celebrant students or friends and connections would consider this…you don’t have to complete all questions - just those relevant to your perspective…but it’s time the law was changed to allow celebrants to officiate legal marriage!
