Woodland Burial - Chapel Service and Graveside Ceremony - Bristol - 2009
Nixie worked together with me in 2009 to put together a funeral ceremony for my mother. I didn't want a formal, religious ceremony but I wanted the service to be imbued with nature and spirituality. I also wanted it to be a celebration of my mother's life and to leave everyone feeling as positive as possible. Nixie struck the perfect balance. She conducted the funeral service beautifully then said a few well-chosen words at the graveside. Many of the guests said that it was one of the most positive, uplifting funerals they had attended. Nixie helped to make a very difficult occasion more bearable, both in the planning and on the day, and I was delighted with how everything went. I wholeheartedly recommend her services.

Home Funeral Guide - North Devon - June 2017
Nixie has a heart of gold, cancelling plans last minute to help us fulfil mum's last wishes to pass away at home tended by family only. The conditions were incredibly challenging as this was during a heat wave but Nixie remained calm, collected and professional throughout the five days before the burial - visiting every day, twice a day - that's a hell of a lot of ice packs!
Nixie has the knowledge, experience and sensitivity to allow death to happen in a very natural way. The process of laying out mum's body aided by Nixie was an incredible gift. It fundamentally changed my attitude towards death. Death has become something alive with magic, poetry and intimacy. Nixie will always be an incredibly important person in my life. I highly recommend working with her. Siena Barnes
Naming Ceremony for Phoenix - Bristol - 2015
I couldn't recommend Nixie highly enough. She is a down to earth, warm, kind and generous lady. She spent time and energy with me to get the details of my Son's naming ceremony just right. It was a perfect ceremony! Xx Angeleen Leckie-James

Funeral Arrangement and Celebrancy - North Devon - 2017
When my wife passed away a friend recommended Nixie as celebrant. I couldn't be more grateful. Nixie spent a great deal of time getting to know my wife through me and some of my wife's close friends. She put together a ceremony that was exactly what I hoped for and, most importantly, that I'm sure my wife would have wanted. So many friends and relations have said how delighted they were with the farewell we gave my wife. Thank you so much Nixie.
Nixie is also one of the nicest people I've met. Colin Wasbourn
Naming Ceremony for Aden - Mells, Somerset - 2016
Nixie helped us to plan our little boy's naming ceremony last year and then led the best occasion we could have imagined. She spent loads of time helping us to organise the details, deciding on the exact wording for the ceremony, making sure it was all just right, and was even up a ladder on the day helping to decorate the hall before the family arrived. She does indeed have a heart of gold. Couldn't recommend her more highly! Bridget Newbery
Wedding of Sally and Dan Monks - April 2012 - Bristol

Nixie - Just a few words to say thank you for such a fantastic journey and for your wonderful service. I have a feeling others may be a little less hard work! You were wonderful! Thank you so much, with much love, Dan
Dear Nixie, Thank you so much for our fabulous Wedding Service. It was perfect and reflected our personalities wonderfully. We are so pleased you could do it for us and it wouldn't have been the same with anyone else. Lots of love Sally

New Home Blessing - Bristol - 2010
Nixie led a house blessing ceremony in my new home, and her thoughtfulness, warmth, humour and generosity made it a very memorable, relaxed, special and happy occasion – all I’d hoped for and more. Nixie and I had talked about my ideas for the occasion and she used these and added her own, which fitted perfectly. She also created a beautiful ‘order of service’ for keeping. Nixie knew that one of my friends had quite particular religious beliefs and this was respectfully embraced within the ceremony. We finished off with tea and cake, my new home had been filled with light, love and laughter, and felt well blessed.

Graveside Burial Ceremony - Wells Cemetery - 2012
My sister and I saw Nixie to discuss the burial the day after Mum died. Nixie has a gentle approach, she was so kind and supportive and took time to understand what we wanted. Afterwards, she emailed me what she planned to say and asked me to change anything I wanted. I didn't because it was just right - for me, my sister and, importantly, for the memory of our mother. And on the day of the burial, Nixie was again kind and gentle, and between us, we even managed to laugh.
