Leicester Celebrancy Recensioni 

Neil conducted our dad's funeral in August this year. Not only did he take an excellent service, which was much remarked on by attendees, but he also helped us to organise and personalise the entire funeral. His knowledge and experience of the process was invaluable.
From when we first met with Neil, he put us at our ease, and his compassion and professionalism was matched only by his sense of humour. He is a real 'people person' and was very skilled at helping us to articulate what we found difficult given the circumstances.
He was understanding and insightful, and delivered a eulogy that represented our dad to a tee.
As a family, we will always be grateful to Neil for helping to give the send off that he deserved.
Thanks Neil!

Neil officiated my mums funeral at Gilroses crem Leicester, but prior to this he visited the family to discuss how we wanted the service to be delivered. He helped us to choose poems and offered advice where we was unsure on what we wanted. It was a 5 star service and I wouldn’t hesitate to use the Leicester celebrant service again. Everyone who attended said what a lovely service it was and an excellent celebrant we had. Thank you

Neil’s compassion and understanding of our family situation helped us to provide our son with a beautiful funeral address. Thank you for the time you spent getting it just right.

Thank you so much for an excellent delivery for our friends funeral. I will highly recommend you, sincere and so well spoken. Tracey

Neil conducted a beautiful service for my grandad. He was the perfect balance of humour and respect. He captured my grandad so incredibly well in the eulogy, and everyone said how amazing the service was after. Thank you, Neil, for looking after me and my family.

Fortunate enough to have Neil deliver the service at my Dads funeral. From start to finish he was amazing, always there for me on the end of the phone if I needed him. On the day of the service he was fantastic, leading with a perfect balance of humour, respect, and love for us as a family. He walked behind my Dads coffin, carefully supporting my mum and my daughter. I am so grateful he was there. He is definitely a top guy and my Dad would’ve loved him. Thanks Neil. You’re brilliant, sir.

Neil was incredible. He took the time to get to know Mum and created a service that was heartfelt, respectful, and full of love. The words were beautiful and delivered with such kindness.

On the hardest day, Neil made everything feel peaceful. We would recommend him to anyone. Thank you for giving Mum such a special goodbye at Gilroes East Chapel.

What an unforgettable day for our family. Watching my grandparents renew their home, surrounded by the people who love them most, was incredibly emotional and so so special.

Neil made the whole ceremony feel intimate and unique. The way he told their story was thoughtful, heartfelt and full of personal touches. There were plenty of happy tears.

Thank you, Neil, for creating such a beautiful celebration of their love. It’s a day our family will treasure forever, and I’m so grateful I was able to be part of it. ❤️

A truly amazing day, Neil was brilliant, professional but caring and sincere, his ode to us made me cry, he made it so personal all about us. The knot tying was a stroke of genius. The Ceremony taking place at our own home in our own garden with family around us, magical- Thank you Neil from us both Mike and Gill xx

A huge thank you to Neil for a perfect ‘surprise’ vow renewal for my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary. Neil was warm and friendly, very supportive and amenable to changes. He adapted everything to make it personal to them. My grandparents were overjoyed with the service Neil provided. A truly unforgettable day for all of the family.
I will forever be grateful,

Thank you, Neil

Neil did an outstanding job leading the service for my father. He was compassionate, professional, and really took the time to get to know our family and Dad's story. He helped create a peaceful, meaningful celebration of life that we will always remember. We highly recommend his services.

Thank you Neil.
Neil is a wonderful celebrant. Calm, caring, compassionate with excellent delivery. How such a sad occasion can be joyful is unknown but Neil managed it!
It was beautiful. We can’t recommend him highly enough.

Neil did my uncles funeral, it was honestly amazing, and a perfect send off for my uncle, he described what he was like perfectly. It was a very hard day but very memorable

Neil created a wonderful round table setting to guide us through a time we were wholly unsure of. His kind presence and calm nature created space for us to share stories known and forgotten, to laugh and smile at a time where the grief was still a constant companion to us all.
Thank you Neil.

I recently attended a funeral, where a gentleman called Neil conducted the service. He was absolutely brilliant and helped our family to put together the most unique and perfect service. It was so beautifully done. Thank you 😊

We had the pleasure of being supported by Neil to make preparations for our father’s funeral in June 2026.
From the initial phone call with Neil, the guidance and support leading up to the funeral and his kindness and support on the day was incredible.
A very emotional day that was made so much easier having Neil to guide us through it.
I couldn’t recommend him highly enough
Thank you again

The funeral directors proposed Neil as a celebrant after my father’s death. He promptly made contact and walked me through what was a completely unknown process. He took time to answer my questions, patiently going over how the ceremony would take place a number of times until I fully understood the details. He was from the first point of contact, on hand, available and responded quickly to all my requests. On the day, Neil provided a calm, reassuring presence from prior to the ceremony starting, to after it had finished. He facilitated individual requests and made what was a difficult day simple to navigate. Far more importantly he made delivered a touching and heartfelt service. His words were beautifully crafted and beyond my expectations. I could not have imagined a more perfect farewell. I cannot say thank you or recommend Neil highly enough.

This is the second time I've used neil for a funeral for someone that means so much to me. Neil made the while process so much easier knowing I had his support the whole way, didn't matter if I remember something late at night I was still supported. He put on a beautiful service for my grandad.
After the first funeral he did and when the unfortunate event happened of the passing of my grandad I knew there was only one person for the job as a non negotiable. There is no one I'd recommend more. I have great trust in neil and he always performs an amazing job.

The funeral directors contacted Neil to conduct Dad's service. He visited the family & we were immediately struck by his empathy, good advice and guidance.
Coincidentally it turned out Neil knew my dad . Neil conducted the service beautifully ( which was a struggle, given he knew him) . His attention to detail ensured that the service was a personalised fitting tribute to Dad , which is what we wanted. This made a terrible day a little more bearable. Very professional & a nice guy. Thank you Neil

Neil was absolutely perfect - empathetic, understanding and incredibly supportive through a difficult time. He very quickly understood what was needed and guided us to the right decisions. Great advice but freedom to make everything just right. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

He was absolutely amazing he delivered the speak softly.. I was unable to hear much as slightly deaf but knew he was talking about my big brother going miss him..
