The ceremonies I lead in Derbyshire run the full arc of a life: the joy of a new name, the promise of a marriage, the steadiness of vows renewed after years together, the dignity of a farewell. Below is a guide to the five kinds of ceremony I most often write, though many families come to me wanting something none of them quite covers, and that's good news. Bespoke is the default; the list is just a starting point.
