I need you to know some of the things that have been said to me since Friday... All thought the service was beautiful, perfectly pitched and they were gobsmacked to find out that we had never met you before last week. My boss added that it's the first non-religious service he had ever attended and he said it was amazing and uplifting and a celebration of life. You truly made the hardest day I've had so far, a joyful experience, (some added that they thought I was on some sort of medication, purely because I actually appeared to be enjoying myself!) The envelope Dad received from you afterwards absolutely made his day, the poem is already in a frame on the wall, perfect touch....Never stop doing what you do so well!

Thank you so much, from myself, Pam and all the family for conducting our service yesterday. It was done with compassion,kindness and understanding and was just how we had hoped it would be. We are very grateful to you for your professionalism in helping to organise the service, and in guiding us in the best way for it all to flow so smoothly. It would have been a difficult task for us to have had to do on our own.

I was absolutely dreading Tuesday. I truly do not think the day would have been as lovely as it was if it were not for you taking the service. You were absolutely wonderful, perfect in every way - a comfort blanket for us all for sure. It was almost as though you were part of the family and knew my Mum. I could not have wished for a kinder, more sensitive person to have taken the service JUST PERFECT IN EVERY WAY - and angel sent from heaven (or Mum ha ha)

When we first met Lisa, we knew instantly that she was the right celebrant for us. We clicked right away and felt really relaxed talking to her. She always responded to emails quickly and was happy to help us write our vows when we needed it.

On behalf of my new wife and I, we would like to thank you for making our wedding ceremony even better than we could have imagined. You truly did a great job in marrying us and gave us wonderful memories. We were so amazed at how great you were!
Steve and Sam
Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding, we couldn't have asked for a better celebrant! The ceremony was just what we wanted-personal and fun and so many guests said how much they loved the ceremony. Thank you again, it really was the perfect day.
Laura and Steve
Thank you very much for the professional way in which you led the ceremony yesterday. What was always going to be a difficult day was made very special by the kindness and compassion shown by yourself and we were most grateful to you.
Just to say thank you so much for the lovely service you took for my Dad last Friday, it was exactly as he would have wanted it. Myself and my brother and sister really appreciate the efforts you made to ensure that his send off was as nice as a funeral can be. We were so pleased with the way the service went and we received a lot of positive feedback from those in attendance. Thank you again for helping us through such a difficult time.
I really wanted to say again, thank you so much for your support yesterday, and in the run up to yesterday. We are all very happy and content with how yesterday went. We felt that you really paid attention to everything we told you about Mum, and that you really got her. It was lovely to hear the words which Dad and I had written about Mum being read so sensitively, and with so much humour. The tone was just right. Lots of her friends came up to us afterwards, and said the same. A few people said that it was as though you knew Mum. I especially liked the moment when you asked for the music to be turned up! Besides that, you were so warm and respectful, and in control. The evening you met with us was also very helpful. We will absolutely remember the important role you played in helping us to celebrate Mum.
We really appreciated your support and guidance and thought your conduct of Mum's service was absolutely superb. The funeral director described you as very warm which I think sums you up perfectly. Everyone made a point of telling us what a lovely service it was and how much they felt Mum would've have liked it and how it was the essence of her. Although it was of course difficult not to break down in floods of tears it did feel that we were celebrating Mum's life and everything she meant to us.
You made it all so much easier and also very special for us. What you wrote and said was wonderful and you were amazingly supportive. It was so kind of you to help us with what to do on the day.
I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for making my dads day so special. You did an amazing job. You have such a warm, kind personality and made us all feel comfortable. It was a day that we have always dreaded and although it was heartbreakingly painful you made it so much easier. We felt so supported by you.I can not thank you enough and I would and will recommend you in a heartbeat. Dad would have liked you very much.
Just a quick email to thank you for your help after dad died, last week's service was lovely and many people have commented on how nice it was. It was a very personal celebration of dad's life which was what we all wanted. Mum was pleased to get your full script of the service as she says it's given her the opportunity to take in everything that was said which she didn't do at the time.
We just wanted to say a personal thank you for the way you conducted the service for our dad yesterday, and for the lovely tribute. We received so many comments on the service - all complimentary - and everyone felt it had been a true celebration of a life well-lived. Thank you again for making a tough day just that little bit better.
Many thanks for yesterday and when you came to visit us. Your empathy, understanding and relaxed attitude made a difficult time much more bearable. Thanks again for helping to make Mum's passing that much easier.
Now the dust has settled and we all can look to the future with lovely memories a word of thanks to you Lisa for a wonderful presentation, every one has said so. I thought that I was over the pain of the occasion but still have a tear to shed. The music, poems and the dignity you gave our farewell was felt by all and will remain in our memories always.
Thank you so much for the lovely service. I enjoyed your speech and how natural you made it. I would have thought you would have known him with the way you researched and delivered the service. You are a natural and have obviously found your calling. It was a great pleasure to trust the service to you and the extremely professional way it was all put together. You made a very difficult day all the easier.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the wonderful and loving send off. You were truly amazing with everything. Everyone that came to the funeral said it’s the best service they have ever to, with fun, laughter and tears.
I just wanted to say on behalf of all the family thank you so much for delivering so well the farewell to our mum. You were the most perfect person for the job and made the whole funeral a much less daunting experience. We couldn’t have wished for things to go any better for her.
Lisa just to say a huge thanks with the job you done at the funeral. People who I spoke to thought you were a member of the family as you knew so much about him, the comments were very pleasing. It went just as I wanted it to and thank you again for such an intimate ceremony!
I just wanted to say thank you from myself and my sisters for the lovely words you added to the opening of my fathers service on Friday. We were all very pleased with the service you provided and felt you had really listened to all we told you about dad at our meeting at my home prior to the funeral. It is really appreciated as we felt you truly captured in your words who dad was.
On behalf of my mum and all our family we wanted to say thank you for making her send off lovely. It was truly beautiful and mum would have loved it. You conducted it brilliantly and everyone said what a beautiful service it was. It was as beautiful as days like that can be and we are very grateful to you.
Just to say thank you so much for carrying out mums service perfectly. Everyone commented on how lovely it was. My mum would have really liked you and you do seem an absolutely wonderful lady. I will in future recommend you 1000% to anyone. I wish you well and may you continue to be so compassionate in your work and again from the heart thank you from all the family .
I wanted to send you a personal email to say a huge thank you from the bottom of my heart. I was absolutely dreading Tuesday and I truly do not think the day would have been as lovely as it was if it were not for you taking the service.

Lisa, please know that you have really helped me - an awful lot.
I just wanted to thank you all for making yesterday go so well as it could be my dad would have liked how he's been looked after and would have loved the service. It helped me grieve knowing he's been so well looked after and how you all looked out for me too.
Thank you so much for leading Mum’s funeral service, with such a light touch. Many people commented that you had set the tone so perfectly. And of course, as a family we were all delighted.
On behalf of my family I want to thank you for a wonderful service yesterday. This may be the wrong thing to say, but everyone enjoyed the service, although emotional, it showed mums humorous side and that is how we wanted it to be. You put such a lot of warmth and feeling in your presentation.
I wanted to thank you so much for officiating so perfectly at my mother's funeral on Tuesday. A 'lot' of attendees came up to me later and said what a lovely celebrant we had whose manner and delivery made the occasion light and heart warming - I totally agreed. We were so lucky to have found you.
Where do I begin to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the wonderful service you conducted yesterday......It was absolutely perfect and all that I had hoped it would be....So many people came up to me afterwards as I think they did to you also and commented on your professionalism. So thank you for making our occasion seem special to you, as it was for us. These words are not enough to thank you for conducting such a beautiful service for my sister. Your compassion, empathy and understanding left me thinking I had known you personally as a friend. She would have loved yesterday with her family and friends and NO fuss!!! Thank you again for everything. When I am sad I will reflect on the service with fondness.
Thank you for producing such a memorable Funeral Service. It was very obvious to us that you had made a great effort in your preparation in order to achieve perfection when reading the text. It was greatly appreciated. All the family thought that it was a perfect service for him. It was also very kind of you to produce a copy of the whole service for us to keep. Many people are so emotional at a funeral that they don't always remember everything.
