At Willow Creations we are pleased to offer a Celebrants Service.

We have the experience and imagination to help you organise and conduct your special celebrations. Be it a Handfasting, Spiritual Weddings, Celtic & Medieval Themed Weddings, Baby Naming, Loss etc.

We specialise in offering an inclusive package where it is possible for us to make your decorations, invitations, cloaks, robes, altar cloths, besom's, favour token's and conducting the ceremony.

If you have a particular colour or theme running through your Celebration then that can also be used on your Invitations, Guest book or Photo album even your Altar cloth! The possibilities are endless!

We believe in making your day special and personal for you and by offering this unique service, feel we take the stress of organising away from you so you can enjoy the day.

All the items listed are 100% handmade by Willow Creations or from other craft's men & women that I can highly recommend. We source all our materials locally or from within the UK .

Favors
Our Favors are custom made for your guests to take home as a reminder of your day. You can opt for the traditional favor of sugared almonds or be very alternative and send your guests home with a Willow Creations favor, these include:

• Blessing Stones
• Boxes of Handmade Incense
• Wild Flower Seeds
• Mini Aromatherapy Bath Bombs
• Spell Bottles
• Flower Bulbs

Handmade Books
These beautiful handmade books are a speciality at Willow Creations. They can be used as Guest Books or Photo Albums.
They come in standard wood or fabric covered, with each having a hand embossed pewter design on the front, beautifully finished with silver metal corners and cord ends. I keep a wide variety of designs in stock or something can be especially created for you to fit with your colours and theme..

Blessing Cards & Boxes
Wish or Blessing Cards are a unique alternative to the Guest Book. Your guests can offer you a blessing or wish hand written onto beautiful card. This can then be stored within the box.
The box we offer is a small wooden box dyed, stained or painted to your colour theme. Felt lined, with a metal embossed lid that is designed especially for you. The Cards are available plain or you could have them printed with a design or some wording.
Keepsake Boxes
A larger box than the Wish Boxes, these are ideal for keeping all your precious memories from your day. You can store your guest book, photo's, cards you received from your guests, some of your favors, anything you desire!

This beautiful wooden box comes stained or painted and lined. You can also have it customised to your theme.

If you're having a Handfasting this box is ideal for keeping all your Altar items in.

Blessing Scrolls
These are a beautiful and unique way for your guests to offer you Blessings and Wishes on your nuptials. A high quality parchment scroll printed with your names and wedding date etc with the words “We/I offer you this blessing…” with space for them to personally write and decorate a blessing or poem.

The scrolls come with their own posting tube, so they can be sent out to your guest/s before your wedding.
Extra Items

Other handmade products that I can offer to you from myself or other crafts men/women include individually designed Wooden Goblets and Offering plates, Drinking Horns, God & Goddess statues, Fairy Rings & Wands for your Bridesmaids (an alternative to bouquets!), even a photographer who has experience in Handfastings and probably many more items that you could name!

As well as all the previous mentioned items, Willow Creations can also supply special Handfasting items.

Besom/Broom

By far the favourite part of the Ceremony, for most couples, is the jumping of the Broomstick! At Willow Creations we decorate the Broomstick to coordinate with your Handfasting theme, so that it becomes a memorable keepsake of the day.

Hand Blended Incense

Scent is one of the greatest influences on setting a mood, and what could be more perfect than a hand blended Incense designed uniquely for you. This will be burnt during the Ceremony and presented to you in a jar as a keepsake.

Altar Cloths

Willow Creations can make an Altar cloth for you that fit with the colour and theme of your Handfasting. It can be as basic or elaborate as you like!

Cakes & Ale

Traditionally at a Handfasting, Mead would have been drunk because of the association of Love with honey. But you could choose anything and season has a big influence too.

Cake also has an endless list too; you could have a delicious fruitcake, individual fairy cakes, handmade biscuits or loaves of bread.

Corner/Elemental Markers

Corner makers make a beautiful addition to your circle. It's not always possible to have candles burning outdoors due to the unpredictable element of Air!!! So we offer alternatives in the form of Bamboo torches or lanterns. The bamboo lanterns can be decorated with ribbons and flowers to match your theme or to correspond with the elements. Or you could use simple lanterns held by your corner callers. Other options include crystals or simple elemental representations of earth, air, fire and water.

We can also use flowers and foliage to decorate your circle. These again are especially chosen for you and your Handfasting

for further information about any of the alternative ceremonies we can offer please contact us for an individual, customised service.
