Every life and every love holds a unique story
Welcome, I'm Kim Chapman, an independent civil celebrant trained by The Academy of Professional Celebrants.
I’m sure you’ll agree that life’s special occasions deserve to be remembered with love, meaning, and care. Whether you are celebrating a marriage, welcoming a child, or saying goodbye to a loved one, I’ll work with you to create a ceremony that honours the moment and leaves lasting memories for you and those you hold dear.
Your Ceremony
It's your ceremony and your day. I will listen to your vision and create a ceremony that feels authentically yours. Whether non-religious or semi-religious, your story and your wishes are always at the centre.
My Services
From joyful weddings to meaningful farewells, I craft bespoke ceremonies that truly reflect the people they celebrate. I’ll ensure your ceremony is filled with warmth and love; with the stories, values and memories that matter most to you.
Trained & Certified
Accredited by The Academy of Professional Celebrants, which means I am expertly trained, certified and also insured for your peace of mind.
Wedding Ceremony
Joyful, heartfelt ceremonies that reflect your unique love story.
Your wedding day is a moment to celebrate everything that makes your relationship extraordinary — your laughter, your promises, your shared journey. I’ll take the time to get to know you as a couple: what you value, how you met, and the story you want to tell.
It would be my absolute privilege to stand beside you on such a meaningful day, ensuring your ceremony flows smoothly and feels filled with joy, connection, and love.
Funeral Services & Memorials
Compassionate, meaningful farewells that honour life with dignity and love.
Saying goodbye is one of life’s hardest moments, and my role is to help you do so with warmth, care, and respect. Every person leaves behind a story worth telling — one filled with love, memories, and moments that made them who they were.
It would be my honour to work closely with you and your family to create a eulogy that truly reflects your loved one’s essence — their personality, their values, their life’s journey. Whether you’d like a fully non-religious service or to include prayers, readings, or music, together we’ll create a ceremony that feels right and comforting for everyone present.
Vow Renewal Ceremony
Your story renewed - celebrating love that lasts.
A vow renewal ceremony is a wonderful way to celebrate your continuing love story — whether you’re marking a milestone anniversary, reaffirming your commitment after a life change, or simply wanting to say “I still do.”
It’s a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate all that you’ve shared together — the laughter, the challenges, the growth, and the enduring bond that has deepened over time.
Naming Ceremony
Welcoming New Beginnings with Love.
A naming ceremony is a beautiful way to welcome a child into your family, to express your hopes for their future, and to celebrate the love that surrounds them. It can also be a wonderful opportunity to mark a blended family, adoption, or another joyful milestone in your family’s journey.
