As your Wedding Celebrant here in beautiful Berkshire, I am here to share your love story with family & friends and create a truly bespoke ceremony for you both. Your relationship is unique therefore your ceremony should be too!
We will work closely together to design a ceremony script that is a true reflection and celebration of you as a couple, as individuals, and which will tell your story exactly how you want it told. If you are renewing your vows, I can help you to find the perfect words and sentiments that you want to share, drawing on your existing commitment and encompassing life events.
The joy of using a celebrant is that you can pretty much have anything you want. Mix aspects of your individuality, culture and elements of beliefs if you wish, through selected choices of readings, music, and bespoke symbolisms. Involve friends & family, mix it up – this is designer not “off the shelf”. I can also help you to write your vows and offer a full rehearsal of the ceremony prior to the day.
KJM Ceremonies deliver warm and relaxed ceremonies with scripts styled perfectly to match your personalities and vision. I can officiate in any location of your choice – indoors or outdoors, traditional or surprising!
I will work with you every step of the way to ensure we create a completely one-off, designer ceremony for you both which I hope, will stay in your hearts forever.
To be chosen as a funeral celebrant is a true privilege and I will bring with me a sense of trust, calmness and respect during our times together.
My role is to weave together your loved one’s story and legacy into a beautiful and deeply personalised, bespoke ceremony. Together, we will tailor every element to fit & embrace the wishes of both the deceased and the bereaved, bringing those special memories & sentiments to life.
There are no restrictions with a celebrant led funeral. Include cultural, religious, spiritual or alternative aspects to the ceremony through the eulogy, readings, poetry and music – anything that will bring comfort to your family & friends and which will inspire them to say, “Wouldn’t he/she have loved that”.
The word “comfort” is so important to me and will be to you too. A good funeral ceremony will bring comfort to the bereaved. My sole aim is to honour you and your loved one with the best “au revoir” possible.
If you are choosing a memorial service either due to being unable to hold the funeral you wished for, or as an anniversary memorial, the process and my commitment to you is the same.
As a celebrant – well the word says it all – we believe in celebrating & honouring life’s journey and its twists and turns – happy & sad, conventional & unconventional.
Traditionally known as a “rite of passage” we have always celebrated or honoured the traditional stages of life – Birth, Coming of Age, Milestone Birthdays, Marriage, Death. But there are so many more times in our life’s path and those of our loved ones, where we desire and deserve, acknowledgement, recognition and celebration.
If there is anything you wish to commemorate, I can help you to create a tailor-made & memorable ceremony – formal or informal, serious or light-hearted, structured around your specific wishes and making sure it feels right for you and your nearest and dearest. My desire is to create a friendly and warm ceremony filled with love, whilst capturing your beliefs, traditions and desires for the day.

To begin with, I will invite you for an initial, complimentary 30-minute consultation, either face to face, by phone, or video. If you wish to proceed with me as your celebrant I will send you a short questionnaire for you both to complete. It’s not time consuming or intrusive, it just helps me to find out more about you both so that I can start creating your story in my own words.
The next step is for us both to sign our agreement and upon receipt of this, a deposit of 20% of the fee is payable.
I will then arrange a suitable time for us to meet, or video, so that you can get to know me a little better and I can go more into your story and vision for your ceremony.
Included in the fee:
We would begin with a complimentary 30-minute consultation either face to face, by phone or video, whichever is easiest for you during this time. We can talk about your initial thoughts for the ceremony and what I can support you with.
I will then arrange a convenient time to visit to meet with yourself and any other family or friends you wish to be present. This is important as you will get to know me a little better and I can gather my own picture of your loved one who has passed away. I will guide you through the journey we need to take to ensure that we put together the perfect tribute and that the ceremony will be personal and fitting.
Included in the fee:
Please note: For ceremonies taking place within 4 weeks, full payment is required at time of booking.
