“Because life should always be measured by moments and memories.”

I’m Victoria, though most call me “Tory,” and I’m an Independent Modern Celebrant based in the heart of beautiful Northamptonshire.
I believe every person is one-of-a-kind, and that their ceremonies should be just as unique. Whether you’re honoring a life lived or celebrating a new beginning, I take great care in crafting ceremonies that truly reflect the individuality and essence of each person or couple.

Funerals & Memorials
Weddings & Vow Renewals
Other Life Events

Bespoke Ceremonies

Your ceremony your way. You have the freedom to include meaningful rituals, tree planting, sand ceremonies, candle lighting, handfasting, the list is endless. You also have the freedom to choose whether you include any religious elements in your ceremony or not, it is entirely up to you.

We can help you decide on the perfect poems and verses. You may have pictures you’d like to share, music you’d like to include. We can help you write personal vows and promises to make each moment perfect and unique.

A passion for creating unforgettable memories

Candles can be a lovely part of any ceremony and can be personalised as a memento. A wonderful keepsake you could light every year.

Certificates & Keepsakes

We can create personal certificates
Memorial cards, thank you cards

Funerals & Memorials

Losing a loved one can be devastating as anyone who has experienced loss themselves will tell you. I will
embark on the journey with the bereaved offering my support, empathy and time with the intention of
making the process a little easier at what is such a difficult time. My commitment extends well beyond
normal expectations as my aim is to ensure that this day of all days will be cathartic by crafting a significant,
heartfelt and memorable farewell

Wedding’s, Civil Partnerships & Vow Renewals

We are all unique individuals and your big day should be truly unforgettable. As your Celebrant I will work with you to create something that is not only memorable but truly unique to you and that celebrates your love story. Unlike the more traditional style of ceremony you have the freedom to write your own vows and promises and carefully decide what you’d like to include when you celebrate your big day, your way.

Naming’s, Blessings & Life Events

Every family is unique, and throughout life, we all experience significant milestones that deserve to be celebrated. Whether it’s a naming ceremony celebrating a new arrival into the family, a special anniversary or any other life event, I am here to help capture these moments with a personalised, celebrant led ceremony. I will work closely with you to craft a one of a kind experience that truly reflects the essence of who you are, ensuring your special occasion is a unique celebration that is as meaningful as it is memorable
