Jane Cahill

Growing up in this London, I didn’t see ceremonies or commemorations in ways that represented me. They were for people who followed a more traditional path. I came to a false belief that public commitment, open celebration and communal grief weren’t going to feature in my life.

After a decade in teaching and public speaking, I realised that wasn’t true. I decided to take a modern approach to celebrancy. As an independent celebrant in Hackney and London, I want to make sure that all people could see themselves represented in the most important moments of their life, building on the traditions and texts that held meaning for them. If you’re interested in a bespoke service that embraces these values, contact me via Facebook, Instgram, Whatsapp or through my website below.

Independent celebrancy can include individual elements, traditions, religions and personal beliefs. Where many ceremonies are restricted to an either/or approach, an independent celebrant can help make your celebration as religious or non-religious as you choose. In my work as an LGBT celebrant in Hackney, I speak directly with the families and couples involved, and will make sure that everyone feels welcomed and comfortable at the event.

My relationship with each family is the foundation of my practice. All good writing starts with good listening, and I build every relationship on the bedrock of that understanding. my experience will guide you with confidence, awareness and empathy. I work clarity and openness, ensuring a simple and straightforward process to create a service faithful to your needs.
