I love being a celebrant. I love the way it uses my various skills to help create meaningful rituals for people.
If appropriate I love to work with people's stories. I enjoy finding ways of weaving people's tales into the design and context ot their ceremony.
I encourage people to use their creativity.
I try to connect to people's imaginations to help them come up with their own ideas for their own ceremony. I happily suggest things as well but as much as possible I like to bring out what often lies beneath some doubt or trepidation.
I believe these powerful life events must remain true and authentic to the people who are participating in them.
As a celebrant I see my role as helping to initiate, support and nuture that quality. |
