MY BACKGROUND
How IÂ Got Here?
My journey to becoming a celebrant has been a long and rewarding one.
I have learned so much on the way
and met many interesting and caring individuals who have guided and mentored me.
​
It has been an emotional and fruitful ride.
​
Writing scripts for funerals is hard and yet worthwhile, insightful and reflective.
The emotions shared and the feelings that arise from this vocation are varied and at times quite intense.
​
I am pulled towards being a humanist celebrant as I want to contribute.
I want to do something human for my fellow humans.
I wish to Celebrate People
What have I been doing until now you ask?
I was born in Edinburgh at the bottom of Victoria Street in 1974. On leaving school I knew I wanted to be a musician, in particular a piano entertainer. For 30 years I have enjoyed performing music for many people in many places.
I am a father of 5 children.
I have moved into a new chapter of my life and look forward as a celebrant, willing to contribute and help make your ceremony what you want.
A poem by Mark Twain
This poem was written by Mark Twain in the early 1890's.
'These I can Promise' is often used as a wedding ceremony poem.
