Hi, I'm Lara, A celebrant based in the Lake District
I live in South Cumbria on the edge of the gorgeous Lake District with my husband, two children and our bonkers Springer Spaniel.
If you're looking for a big-hearted celebrant who can make your ceremony as personal and uplifting as the rest of your day, you're in the right place!
Whether you're looking for a perfect ceremony to celebrate the start of a new life together, welcome a new arrival; mark the start of a new chapter with a gender transition or divorce, or honour the life of a loved one who has passed away - I am here to help.
I LOVE a good wedding. But, even as one of your more excitable wedding guests, I know how it feels to sit there bored, wanting to fast forward a dull ceremony to get to the good bits...
I also know what it's like to sit through a funeral and feel let down. Distracted by impersonal, overly religious words that don't connect with the audience or reflect your loved one at all.
That's why I am so passionate about creating interesting, memorable ceremonies that will perfectly capture your story, whatever the occasion.
There'll be no set structure, 'template' wording or strict time limits.
No couple or family are the same and no ceremony should be either - so yours will be entirely unique, filled with warmth and the right dose of emotion and humour.
