“Thank you so much for yesterday, you made the service very special for Ellis and it was truly heartfelt. We can’t thank you enough as a family and we all said Ellis would have liked you doing it, you seem the type of person Ellis would have got along with. Everyone has commented on how perfect it was and how special it felt for it to be totally personal to Ellis. Thank you again for your sincerity, care, professionalism and being such a genuine person with a lot of heart and compassion. Big thumbs up to the Iron man tie. I’m sure our paths will cross again at a happier time, we will forever be grateful for your input on our day to celebrate our boy.”
Paula

“I just wanted to say thank you for the service you did for my Dad last week. It was very personal about him which meant a lot to me. I also had so many people saying how they didnt even know you could do a service like that. I think people thought it is compulsory to have hymns and prayers? Everyone loved listening to my Dad’s life story and I am 100% sure my Dad would have laughed away at the black pudding and Everton jokes”
Jo

“I would just like to say a big thank you for the lovely service yesterday for my mum’s funeral. Everyone thought you knew my Mum the way you spoke about her. It was a very emotional and lovely day just like she would have wanted. Everything went fantastic. Thanks again, keep doing what you do, you’re amazing”
Shirley

“I am writing to thank you for the amazing send off you gave my father in law Bill. The whole family found your words and the presentation of Bill, an experience which will not leave us. You have something which is a gift and calling. The red tie was a cracking touch and went down with all Liverpool fans present. Even my Evertonian sister in law appreciated it. What you are achieving as a celebrant, is making a difficult time both manageable and memorable. This at the most strained and emotional time many of us will ever face. Once again thanks from the family.

Simon

“I just wanted to say thank you so much from myself and the whole family for the lovely service and Eulogy today. It was full of warmth, humour and compassion  You did Teresa proud, she’d have loved it and you too. Keep doing what you’re doing, it’s brilliant.”
Maria

“Just wanted to convey my heartfelt thanks for the way in which you lead the service for our beloved Pops yesterday. From the moment you arrived at my Mum's house, you immediately put us at ease. You handled our family with such care and humour and dealt with any changes we requested with speed and sensitivity. 
On the day of the funeral, everyone commented on how you really managed to capture the essence of our Pop's personality, with equal measure of tears and laughter.  I know it meant so much to our Mum.  
This job is definitely your calling and I would recommend you to anyone who wants a warm, feeling, down to earth Celebrant to commemorate their loved one. An absolute professional.”
Helen

“No words can really express the way Brian conducted my John and Scott and Jay's Dad's funeral from the minute we met this gentlemen in our home we felt comfort and caring, we talked for a long time and on the day of the funeral it was if he had known John all of his life and he was an old friend. He was so professional yet a friend, this ability is only done through someone who is dedicated to his work.
We would advise anyone to get this gentlemen to speak about their love ones at their funerals
Thank you Brian from the bottoms of our heart, you are an amazing, caring man”
Carolyn, Scott & Jay

“I cannot speak highly enough of Brian. He met my sister and I to talk about our Mum's life, and he was so warm, friendly, and easy to talk to. He kept in regular contact to ensure all the details were correct, and didn't hesitate to make amendments when necessary. On the day of the funeral, Brian did a phenomenal job. Not only did he have a perfect balance of sensitivity and humour, but the eulogy he wrote made it feel like he knew my Mum. From start to finish, Brian was so warm and sincere, I lost count very quickly of how many people came up to me to say how great Brian was. For every tear of sadness, he made up for it with a tear of laughter. You will be in very safe hands with Brian. He gave our mum the perfect send-off and I'm sure he'll do the same for you too. Many thanks again, Brian, from the whole family.”
Pam

“Many thanks for making the day so special, a true celebration on my Dad’s life. You did a cracking job, tears and laughter. Thank you so much”
Perry

“I am on way home now and just wanted to thank you for today. When your just given someone’s name to contact with the mammoth task of portraying your loved ones life it’s very scary. I just wanted say that I never thought anyone could have done it as well as you did today. I wouldn’t have changed anything, it was perfect and I can’t thank you enough.”
Sheila

“I would like to thank you for the service at Dave’s funeral. You gave him a good send off. You made us laugh and cry (good tears though). Everyone that was as the service thought you were a friend of Dave’s and asked how long you had known him, that’s how good you came across. Dave would have praised you if he could so thank you again.”
Sue


“Everyone commented on how lovely the service was. Yourself and Siân made everything so easy for us, we felt comfortable speaking with you both and together you turned a sad time for us all into a memorable celebration of Gary’s life.”
Julie.

“I’m always one for meanings of words: Celebrant - a person who celebrates something, really simple and that’s what you did for my Mum and her life. You understood the importance and unique nature of this family event, listening to each family member’s perspective carefully, crafting memories and anecdotes into a verbal bouquet of love for my Mum.
Meeting with us never felt intrusive, although emotions were raw, you confidently orchestrated and valued everyones input and your likeability and warmth encouraged more input with personal messages leading up to the day.
Importantly you were organised, present and ready waiting as we arrived, and you delivered with grace, empathy and ease and it never felt like a group of words. Humour and pathos were effortlessly balanced and nothing felt inappropriate or crass. Reading the mix of emotions in the room we segued effortlessly between verbal / music tributes and opportunities for quiet reflection. I can not thank you enough and we will always recommend your services.”
Christine.

“I honestly can’t thank you enough for making everything so personalised, from the first time we spoke you ensured the process was made so much easier. The service from beginning to end was simply beautiful, I’ve had so many people ask how I managed to get someone so kind and who ensured the service ran the way it did. I will certainly be honoured to feedback what you were able to do for me and my Mum yesterday and can’t thank you enough.”
Lynda.

“Thank you for the great job you did as the celebrant at my Dad's funeral on Thursday. Your eulogy was excellent and gave my Dad a fitting send off.”
Keith & Lorna

“Oh Brian, I can’t begin to tell you how absolutely delighted we all were with the ceremony. You’re a truly lovely and dignified man. I can’t believe that my idol of the 80’s conducted my beloved Mum’s funeral, I will be forever indebted to you and send you my very best wishes”
Sue

“I just wanted to say a big thank you from all the family for the beautiful funny service to send our brother Sammy on his way. Everyone commented on how amazing the service was and were complementary of you. We continued to celebrate his life until late into the evening, needless to say some of us have sore heads today. Once again thank you for everything. Sammy would have been made up.”
Kathy


“On behalf of Sharon and her boys I’d like to thank you for the lovely service you lead for her husband / their father and our dear friend Dave. From the minute we met you put us at ease and we felt able to talk freely about Dave’s life, his loves, his hobbies etc and you gently extracted what you needed to understand his personality and what kind of man Dave was. You did a brilliant job, some mourners even thought you were one of Dave’s close friends, which is a great accolade. Thank you so much for helping us through a tough day”
David.


“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your help with Mum’s funeral yesterday. It was a very raw and emotional day but all the family were so pleased at how it all went.

Tom

Paul

“On behalf of Paul and myself and our family I would like to thank you again for the wonderful way you helped us celebrate Mum’s life. The eulogy you gave brought back many memories for so many who were there. Everyone, and I mean everyone, including my 11 year old Great Nephew, said how it helped them with happy thoughts about her. You truly have a wonderful way with words and everyone commented on how you were so caring and thoughtful. Once again thank you for your kindness and superb expertise which helped up in our grief”

It was delivered with just the right amount of humour along with the delicacy required for such a sad occasion. I know it was shorter than you wanted but, honestly, it was perfect for what we wanted.”
Kay

“Just wanted to say thank you so much for today. My Grandad’s service was lovely, more than we could have asked for. Loads of people were saying how personal it was to my Grandad and how they had learnt stuff about him today. Thank you for so much for everything you have done for us.”

Jean

“We were delighted and honoured to have you agree to conduct our wedding ceremony last week, particularly as it was your first. I have to admit to making a refusal rather difficult for you as I believe the header to my initial email was ‘Please Help!’.
You took time to get to know us and wrote a wonderful speech which was spot on, and was perfect for the day. Your analogy of marriage was superb and you left us with a very meaningful gift that we intend to keep forever. I can’t miss out the fact that you’re a Scouser, which comes hand in hand with a fabulous sense of humour, which you of course brought with you. Everyone who met you commented on what a lovely man you are. My only regret is that you didn’t stay longer!
Thank you for making our day so unique and special, we are forever grateful!’”
Rebecca & Colin

“I just wanted to thank you for the service you did for Peter yesterday at Thornton Cemetery. I know you rely on information given to you by family and friends to deliver the service but you came across like you had actually known Peter for years and that gave the service a very special heart warming touch. All of it was lovely”
Helen

“Excellent service. Everyone commented that the eulogy summed up June perfectly. Thanks for everything”
Ray

“Trevor and l just want to say how much we appreciated the way you conducted the funeral of Arthur. He was a great man and you really did him proud! We were so sorry to be half a world away when he died but your words and the stories from others made us feel as though we were there celebrating his life. We thank you very much. Me being an old Liverpool girl was even more thrilled by your accent (felt homesick!)”
Susan & Trevor


“Thank you Brian for making today so special to me and our Stacey. All my family and friends thought you did a wonderful job. You were a pleasure to work with. I can honestly say, hand on heart, John would have shook your hand and said well done. I will be highly recommending you”

You captured every trait she had in the eulogy, even though you had never met her, or us, and you ensured she had a lovely send off with beautiful words and memories, which she would have been so pleased with. We are so grateful to you, especially in these current times. Thank you once again, this has meant so much to us all.”

Going forward, I wouldn't hesitate to make a recommendation on your behalf, should anyone I know be in a similar, sad position to have lost a loved one.”

Before today I was the only in possession of that information. I am sure if Robbie was listening today he would have shook your hand for giving his family a lovely, interesting and honest account of his strength of character.
You helped so much in wishing my Uncle a safe journey on his way to a party with his Mum, Dad, Brothers and Sister”

Karen

“We honestly couldn’t have wanted anything more for my Dad yesterday, considering the circumstances and restrictions we were really pleased with how the day went. The service was perfect for my Dad as it was literally all about him and it was so personal, he wasn’t one for prayers or hymns so he’d be made up that we spent 45 minutes just talking about how amazing he was! Thank you for suggesting that people pay their tributes to him as none of us would have even thought of that and from myself and the rest of the family thank you so much for how you delivered his eulogy and Kerry and George’s speeches, everyone said how brilliant you were and the way you delivered it was almost as though you knew him like we did. I just want to say as well that my Dad was a massive Frankie Goes To Hollywood fan so he would have been made up with you being there as well. It was also a very classy touch wearing the red tie so we appreciate that.”

You combined tact, empathy and insight in all the advice you gave us. I would heartily recommend your assistance to anybody else. Thank you for everything Brian, from all of us“
Chris, Carolyn & Shirley

“I have to admit that when I first spoke to you, without us having the chance to meet, I wasn't sure what to expect.
I thought that the whole service was a fitting tribute to a remarkable lady, with the individual contributions from all, including yourself, making the sum greater than the individual parts.
Although I am probably biased, I actually think it was as personal a service as I have experienced.”
