Meet Your Celebrant Trainers

I’m Ellie, (She/Her) the founder of Choice Celebrant Training. I live with my husband and daughter, Chorkie dog and owned by our two Devon Rex cats in Whitby.

I am an experienced, established, and original full time alternative celebrant. Handfasting, alternative ceremonies (also the name of my celebrant business; Alternative Ceremonies UK) and natural burials are the ceremonies I specialise in.

I have been training celebrants for over 12 years wedding and before I founded Choice Celebrant Training, I was the previous Senior Tutor for one of the UK’s largest celebrant training organisations.

Meet Celebrant Trainer Nicky

Hello, I’m Nicky, (She/Her) I live with my partner and our 2 Border Collies just outside Glastonbury, in sight of Glastonbury Tor. 

I am an experienced Funeral Celebrant who has led 100’s of ceremonies, I am also a Funeral Director, a Funeral Planner and a Certified Grief Coach.

I have been training and mentoring celebrants for over 4 years now and to be able to teach, help and support others within the funeral industry is rewarding and a positive experience. The funeral industry is changing quickly and funerals as we knew them have transformed into personal celebrations of life.

The funerals I have created and led have all been different. Traditional funerals, life centred celebrations, alternative funerals and life style celebrations. I have led many wedding ceremonies, but I prefer funerals.
