I'm Sharon, an Independent Celebrant
with a Passion for Personalised Ceremonies
​
Based in the heart of the North East, I work across Newcastle, Durham, Northumberland and beyond, crafting relaxed and memorable ceremonies for funerals, weddings, naming days and other life milestones

Ceremonies That Reflect You
Your story is unique and so should be the words that celebrate or honour it.
For Funerals
Mark a life with grace and meaning. I’ll work with you to create a heartfelt, respectful service that honours the individuality of your loved one.
For Weddings
Celebrate your love with a ceremony that reflects your values, your personality, and your journey together, including Vow Renewals. From woodland elopements to city centre celebrations, I tailor every detail.
For Naming Days & Family Celebrations
Welcome a new life, affirm a bond, or celebrate a new chapter with a warm, inclusive ceremony designed around your family.
How HoneyBee Ceremonies Works
My process is collaborative, calming and thorough. I guide you from first conversation to final words on the day.
Step 1: Let’s Talk
An informal chat to understand your vision and explore what you’re looking for.
Step 2: Gathering the Details
Through conversations, questionnaires or shared memories, I build a picture of the person or people at the heart of the ceremony.
Step 3: Crafting the Script
I write a bespoke, poetic ceremony that reflects your voice and your values. You’ll have the final say on every word.
Step 4: On the Day
I’ll liaise with all involved, arrive early, and deliver your ceremony with confidence, care and connection.
What Makes HoneyBee Ceremonies Unique
-
Empathy & Experience: My background as a investigator has shaped my ability to listen deeply, hold space, and uncover the essence of each story.
-
Creative Writing with Soul: Every ceremony is completely bespoke, crafted with heart, not cut-and-paste scripts.
-
Rooted in the North East: I bring a strong sense of place and community to every occasion, from coastal towns to rural venues.
Testimonials
“Sharon was born to do this. Her ceremony brought laughter, tears and a sense of peace that we’ll never forget.”
Sam & Ben, Northumberland​
"From the initial meeting with us, where you collected the information for the eulogy with warmth and kindness at such a difficult time. To the writing of the eulogy itself, which was wonderful and captured to a tee the character of my mother. You made it so unique and personal. Everything including the delivery was perfect."
