My Commitments to Inclusion

  • Celebrating Individual and Family Differences: I create ceremonies and environments where every unique story—whether a Wedding, Civil Parnership, Baby Naming or other, is recognised and celebrated.
  • Promoting Dignity and Respect: My approach ensures dignity and respect for all, regardless of background, identity, or family structure.
  • Zero Tolerance for Bullying or Harassment: I do not tolerate any form of intimidation, bullying, or harassment, and I actively challenge such behaviour.
  • Continuous Personal Development: I stay updated with the latest in inclusive language and practices, ensuring my services are always welcoming.
  • Championing Equality: I promote equality among celebrants and industry colleagues, reflecting the diversity of the couples and families I serve.

Core Values

  • Respecting Identity and Family Structure: I never make assumptions about gender, orientation, race, culture, religion, or family makeup.
  • Honouring Preferences: I use each person’s chosen pronouns and forms of address, and respect all definitions of family.
  • Accessibility: I ensure my services and venues are accessible to all, meeting individual needs.
  • Sharing Knowledge: I share insights and best practices with colleagues to foster a more inclusive industry.
  • Encouraging Representation: I strive for diverse representation in styled shoots and industry events, including all types of families.
  • Ongoing Education: I am committed to learning and supporting inclusive language and practices.
  • Integrity and Community: I act with honesty and integrity, building a united, inclusive community for all marriages and family ceremonies.
