Hello and welcome!

I'm an independent celebrant who helps individuals, couples and families celebrate their love stories in style across Bristol and South Gloucestershire.

I offer formal or informal ceremonies in a style of your choice from woodland and natural to something modern, mystical or prestigious.

So if you are planning a Wedding, Vow Renewal, Funeral, Naming Ceremony, or Family Blending Ceremony and are looking for a personal, inclusive and sincere ceremony full of meaning and value, then I would love to help.

I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Thanks,

Lara J Nash

Professional Celebrant

Celebrant during COVID-19

I am currently abiding by the Government's COVID-19 guidelines and conducting client meetings via telephone or video calls. I have Zoom software and can do virtual ceremonies upon request if required.

Funeral ceremonies are limited to a maximum of 30 guests in the crematorium/graveside as per Government guidance on funerals.

Wedding ceremonies can only take place under exceptional circumstances (during complete lockdown) with a maximum of 6 attendees as per Government guidance on weddings.

I am still taking bookings for weddings over the coming year and into 2022. If dates need to be moved, no additional costs will be incurred. Click here to contact me today. 

Choosing a Celebrant has so many advantages – I can tailor the service exactly to your needs and you have no restrictions on content or timing. You can even have your ceremony anywhere you choose – in the open air, on the beach, in a forest clearing, in your back garden; it’s totally up to you.

Dear Lara,
I thank you for  making yesterday’s funeral such a special occasion. Your direction, sensitivity and tone were perfect. The well chosen words at the beginning and especially at the end of the service
were beautifully apt. Indeed your whole approach has been truly appreciated by all of us. Thank you.

Thank you so much for conducting Mums funeral today.  We thought you did an excellent job of it all and it was as if you knew her – which was obviously what you got from talking to us on the telephone but that is a wonderful skill that you have.  I have already received messages from friends and family that took part online and they all have commented on how wonderful you were so thank you.

HI Lara,

I just wanted to drop you a quick message thanking you for the wonderful service that you gave for Toby.
Your recitation of “Killing in the Name Of” was absolutely spot on.

Toby would have been howling with laughter & it represented perfectly the way he would have wanted to be remembered.

Once again, thank you so much.
