Hi there, I'm Julie
If you’ve been searching for a celebrant who’ll take the time to really get to know you before the big day, you’re in the right place.
I’m a Yorkshire lass at heart, returning home after eight years living abroad and I write and deliver ceremonies that actually feel like the people standing in front of me. No off-the-shelf script. No awkward formality. Just your story, told in a way that feels true to you, with a few happy tears and a generous helping of warmth.
We'll be a Great Fit if…
-
You want your ceremony to feel like the heart of the day, not just a tick-box exercise.
-
Whether you’re planning a first marriage, blending families, renewing vows or saying goodbye to someone deeply loved… Everyone is welcome here.
-
You want warmth, a few tears, and where it fits, a little laughter.
-
You believe the words said out loud actually matter.
-
You’d rather sound like yourselves than read a script someone else wrote.
-
You want a celebrant who’s organised, calm and genuinely cares about getting it right.
Ceremonies Created Just for You
Funerals
A celebrant-led funeral is a chance to tell the story of a life properly with warmth, care and space for the moments that matter most. (Faith, no faith, music, memories, laughter, tears).
Naming Ceremonies
A warm, modern way to welcome a child into the world, celebrate the people who will help guide them through life and mark the beginning of their story surrounded by love.
Heart, Humour and Yorkshire Warmth
After eight years living and working abroad, I’ve come home with an even deeper appreciation for the different ways people celebrate love, family and life’s biggest moments. Combined with my Yorkshire roots, that means ceremonies that feel warm, inclusive and genuinely personal.
I won’t just write and deliver your ceremony. I’ll help guide you through the whole process with calmness, warmth and genuine care. From our first chat to the moment we stand together on the day.
Calm. Organised. Genuinely invested. The way it should feel.
Where Love Stories Take Me
Primarily Calderdale, Bradford and Kirklees. Which, if you ask me, is the most romantic patch of the country there is. From rustic barns and woodland hideaways to sweeping moorland views, cobbled streets and beautiful old mills. Yorkshire offers the perfect backdrop for celebrant ceremonies full of heart and personality.
