Lots of people become celebrants for deeply personal reasons, and that story could be your best way into the local press. In this clip, Susannah Dale breaks down what PR actually is and shares the first of three story angles you can use to get yourself seen in papers, magazines, radio and beyond 📰

Features are those chunky, human interest pieces readers love. So ask yourself, what's your story? The reason you found celebrancy might be exactly what your local editor is looking for ✨

The Hive is full of masterclasses just like this one, real, practical guidance from experts and celebrants who've built businesses that work. Watch live or catch up whenever you need it 🐝

When did you last learn something that made you better at your job?

Our Celebrant Guild mentor Helen Jubb takes you behind the scenes of what Guild members have been learning together this year. From a back-to-basics funeral focus session on the things that can get overlooked when you're busy doing the job, to exploring the relationships worth building beyond funeral directors, every session is designed to grow your knowledge, sharpen your skills and help you feel more confident in the work you do.

Inside The Guild you'll find regular CPD sessions with knowledgeable and talented co-hosts, webinars and coaching recordings, templates and toolkits, access to insurance, the full Business Kickstarter Course and a community of celebrants who genuinely want to see each other succeed.

Qualifying is just the beginning. The celebrants who keep learning are the ones who keep growing, and we'd love you to do that alongside us.

Ready to keep developing with people who truly get it? Come and join us in The Guild. 💚

Running a celebrant business means your energy should go into couples, families and ceremonies, not into fiddling with website hosting, updates or backups. That's exactly why The Celebrant Studio exists. We look after everything going on behind the scenes, from hosting and maintenance to security and updates, so your website stays sharp, professional and ready to bring in new enquiries without piling more onto your to-do list.

Take a look at this warm, romantic website we built for Kay Story, a wedding celebrant based in Norfolk. Kay spent three decades working with people through coaching and motivation before finding her true calling in celebrancy, and now creates heartfelt weddings, civil partnerships and vow renewal ceremonies for couples across Norfolk and Suffolk, whether that's under ancient trees, inside a rustic barn or right by the sea.

We wanted the site to reflect Kay's calm confidence and warmth, along with her belief that every love story is different, so every ceremony should be too. It was important to bring out the care, humour and real connection she offers each couple, helping them feel completely at ease throughout the whole process. The end result is a site that feels genuine, inviting and thoroughly Kay, right down to the smallest touches.

However many ceremonies you have officiated, that flutter of nerves beforehand rarely disappears completely, and that is worth saying out loud more often.

It does not mean you are not ready. It usually means you care about getting it right for the people in front of you. Arriving early enough to settle into the space, take a few slow breaths and simply be present can make all the difference between nerves taking over and nerves quietly sitting alongside you while you deliver something wonderful.

If you still feel it before every ceremony, you are in very good company. 💚

The beautiful part of celebrancy is standing in front of a couple or a family and telling their story. The less glamorous part is the emails, the contracts, the chasing up song choices at eleven at night.

Ever wondered what a full day at the Celebrant Guild Brand Shoot actually looks like?
Picture styled sets, a real funeral scene, a full wedding backdrop, and a photographer right there with you the whole time, so you're never left awkwardly posing on your own wondering what to do with your hands.

Days like this are all about helping you build a brand that actually looks and feels like you, with images you can use across your website and social media for years to come. We're already planning the next one for 2027, and spots tend to go quickly once dates are announced.

If you'd like first refusal, pop a comment below and we'll send you the link to our waitlist so you hear before anyone else.

Planning a funeral service with lots of moving parts?

This is exactly why a front sheet is so useful. In this clip from our Funeral Focus masterclass, Grace Weatherburn shares how she keeps every bit of logistical information in one place, from flower colours and clothing choices to how the family will arrive and leave the space.

Masterclasses like this one, and plenty of others, are waiting for you on The Hive.

Running a celebrant business means your time should go on couples, families and ceremonies, not on wrestling with website hosting, updates or backups. That's exactly why The Celebrant Studio exists. We take care of everything happening behind the scenes, from hosting and maintenance to security and updates, so your website stays polished, professional and ready for new enquiries without adding more to your plate.

Take a look at this warm, welcoming website we created for Lynette, an independent celebrant based in Leeds known to many as "the celebrant with the pink bob". Lynette brings personality, compassion and genuine care to everything from weddings and vow renewals to funerals, celebrations of life and naming ceremonies, and her site was designed to reflect exactly that. We wanted it to capture her belief that no two ceremonies should ever feel the same, and to highlight the listening and collaboration she puts into every single one.

The site also draws on Lynette's background in hairdressing, beauty therapy and more than two decades as an NHS occupational therapist, weaving in the empathy and calm she brings to people during life's biggest moments, whether joyful or difficult. The result is a site that feels every bit as friendly and person centred as Lynette herself.

The questions you ask at the very start shape everything that follows. A tired or generic questionnaire tends to get generic answers back, and that makes for a script that takes far longer to write and never quite lands.

It is worth revisiting your questionnaire every so often. Are you asking questions that draw out real stories, specific memories and the little details that make a ceremony feel unmistakably theirs? A few thoughtful tweaks now can save you hours of rewriting later.

When did you last give yours a refresh? 💚

Being a brilliant celebrant isn't just about what you write, it's about how you deliver it. The way you hold a room, connect with your audience and bring real presence to a ceremony can be the difference between a good moment and one that people remember forever.

In this masterclass from The Hive, we dive into the art of communication and public speaking, covering practical techniques to help you speak with more confidence, connect more naturally with families and guests, and truly master the delivery side of celebrancy.

Whether you're just starting out and feel nervous about speaking in front of a crowd, or you've been doing this for years and want to sharpen your skills further, this session is packed with insight you can put into practice straight away.

These are the kinds of sessions our Guild members get access to every single month.
Comment HIVE and we'll send you the details, along with everything else waiting for you inside.
