Hi, I'm Kate
Hello! I'm Kate. I'm an accredited funeral celebrant in Conwy, North Wales.
I help people plan meaningful, uplifting and heartfelt ceremonies that really honour the person who has died.
People are redefining what funerals should be, so if a traditional funeral doesn’t feel right, together we can plan something else entirely.
Over three years and hundreds of ceremonies, I’ve had the honour of leading ceremonies in the forest, at fireworks displays, even in a castle.
Whether it’s a deeply personal ceremony attended by a handful of people or a lively party with hundreds in attendance, we can plan something that really reflected who your person was in life, and what was most important to them.
You can find out more about what I do on my website, or on instagram. I can’t wait to get to know you!

"Kate did the most AMAZING job and I don’t know how you do it. What a special gift. You were the best woman for the job and Dad would have loved you. So many people said how special the service was and how ‘dad’ it was. You got it SO right"

I cannot express just how much your ceremony meant to us. It was perfect, really capturing the essence of Adam as if you really knew him.
Thank you Kate from the bottom of my heart for making what was a tragic, heartbreaking occasion into something so special.

Kate did a sterling job – from the first phone call right through to delivering the eulogy, she got the words, memories and tone of the ceremony absolutely perfect.
Saying goodbye wasn’t easy but I know that my weird and wonderful daughter would have loved everything about it

You were fabulous, and a huge part of achieving a feeling of celebration, Kate.
You absolutely got the Fredness of Fred. I was asked a few times how you knew Fred, people thought that you had met him - you encapsulated him so well.
— Geoff

Kate was professional, empathetic and worked hard behind the scenes to capture the character of my father.
The eulogy was extremely well written and delivered in a very sensitive and poignant way.
Several people commented on how it was the "best" funeral they'd ever been to.

Humanist funerals
Humanist funerals, memorials and ash ceremonies are a fitting way to honour a unique life with warmth, sensitivity and meaning, but without reference to religion or an afterlife. They put the story of the person who has died at the heart of the ceremony, paying tribute to them and the legacy they leave, and provide an opportunity to bring people together, not just to share sadness but to celebrate a life lived.
