description
Everyone should be able to choose what they want to say at their Ceremony whether it is a Wedding, Civil Service, Vows exchange or Baby Naming. Families should be able to say goodbye to their loved one and pay tribute in their own unique way. It’s a very personal event in people’s lives and should be remembered for all the right reasons”.
Mo is well organised and loves helping couples to create the ceremony they want and desire. As a Celebrant Mo believes your day should be exactly that – YOUR day! She can help you choose the ceremony you really want and will help guide you with various symbolic gestures, personal vows, poems and readings and more importantly tell your guests about your love story or your journey as a couple.
Mo is always full of new ideas and likes to keep up to date with the latest Wedding trends! She can help you in the build up to your big day or even on the day to ensure that all your carefully laid plans are executed the way you want them and you can relax and enjoy your ceremony and your day. #lovemyjob #letsgetmarried #yourdayyourway
For Baby Naming ceremonies, Mo considers it an honour to be a part of such a special day especially if she has also had the pleasure of conducting the parents’ wedding ceremony – what a privilege it is to be able to present to the world their new born baby and introduce them by their chosen name.
In Mo’s experience, with bereaved families, being able to give someone the send-off they would have wanted is often the best way to help family and friends of the deceased with their grieving process. Drawing on memories and moments shared in their life, can help to make a difficult time much more bearable. If someone was a wartime hero – let’s tell everyone in attendance – if they were the life and soul of the party and full of fun and laughter then that is how they should be remembered and their life should be celebrated. Mo is there to help families to build a tribute that reflects the deceased life as they knew them and to tell that tribute to the funeral attendees.
