DMG Ceremonies Full Description
My name is Donna Marie Graves and I am a modern, fun, professionally qualified Celebrant based near Cardiff in South Wales. I am happy to travel anywhere in Wales and the South West and South East of England for ceremonies. I have been a qualified teacher for over 20 years and I have vast experience in script writing, public speaking and presentations. I love getting to know my clients and discovering their stories and journeys. I am a person-centred Celebrant who is empathetic, focused on your own ideas and wishes. I relish the creative aspect of creating a ceremony from a blank canvas, offering a unique and memorable service, handcrafted just for you. My philosophy is always 'Your Day, Your Ceremony, Your Way!' I am able to offer Humanist, civil, religious or spiritual ceremonies, including a fusion of ideas, cultures and customs, as well as a more traditional ceremony. If you wish to include your dog(s), then they are welcome too!
