Inspirational Ceremonies …for all life events

Let me support you as you prepare for the most important milestones that families face together:

Funerals
Celebration of Life & Memorial ceremonies
Weddings
Renewal of Vows
Baby Naming ceremonies
…plus any special celebration ceremonies that you wish for!

As an independent celebrant, I can guide you and help your hopes for a unique and loving ceremony to become a reality.

Together we can weave personal stories, music, non-religious or religious elements together - whatever matters to you - so that each ceremony is as individual as the people who created it.
It goes without saying that I will be there with you on your special day to deliver the ceremony and support you.

I also offer an advisory package for people who wish to make a ‘living order of service’ - so that your loved ones have less to contemplate at their time of grief.

I am based in Looe and work in south east Cornwall, though happy to travel further if families wish me to.

What I Deliver >

Meet your Celebrant…

Emma Wilkinson

I have lived in Cornwall for ten years and really enjoy living as part of the Looe community. I am an experienced event organiser and always empathetic dealing with families as they plan their wishes for the
important ceremonies in life.

Before becoming an independent celebrant I managed the Looe Harbour Heritage Centre in the Sardine Factory. So, as well as creating your ceremony content with you, I can help you find ways to achieve exactly what you hope for your special day, including suggesting venues and suppliers for you.

Please see below - some of my testimonials from
for ceremonies I have led.

More about Emma >

Jacqui and Paul

“Today we attended the memorial service for our dear friend, Annie. Emma gave a wonderful eulogy, including memories from Annie’s friends and family which captured Annie’s personality beautifully. We are so grateful for Emma’s professionalism which made the ceremony as easy and stress free as possible. Emma really has a talent for connecting with people and understanding the essence of the loved one. Heartfelt thanks.”
Oscar and the O'Connor family

“Capturing the essence of a man of 90 years, adored by his extended family, revered by his colleagues and friends would appear to be a daunting task. Emma helped our family and friends celebrate my father’s life in style; he would have loved it. She was deeply sensitive to the love in the room and guided the ceremony with empathy and great skill. Her natural ability to relate to people and find the right way of saying what needed to be said made what could have been a sad occasion into a joyful and uplifting memorial.”
Katie and the Waller family

“Emma showed so much compassion and empathy as the celebrant for my mother’s passing and her funeral. She respected our wishes and those of my mother, and she was incredibly patient in helping us to create a beautiful service. Emma was very reassuring throughout the whole experience as well as showing great sensitivity on the days of the funeral and celebration of life. Thank you Emma! “
Karen and Kevin

“I know Sue wants to thank you personally but I just wanted to say on behalf of Kevin and myself what an absolutely beautiful service you delivered yesterday. Chris and the whole family relationship was not easy but you managed to pull it all together with such care and attention, striking just the right chord. Well done and thank you again from the bottom of our hearts.”
