Compassionate, Personalised Ceremonies in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire

Navigating grief is never easy, and I understand the emotional complexities that come with loss. Together, we will create a ceremony that celebrates your loved one’s life but also offers comfort during this difficult time.
We will ensure the service is a meaningful and respectful tribute. Through your stories, we will craft a unique and heartfelt narrative that reflects the individuality of your loved one and resonates with those gathered to remember them.
Whether you include readings, poems, or personal tributes, together we will choose elements that feel right for you — involving family and friends as much or as little as you wish.
Every ceremony I create is authentic, heartfelt, unique and dignified.
I offer support for:

• Funeral service
• Memorial services
• Scattering of ashes ceremonies

For those who have chosen a direct cremation, we offer bespoke memorial services that can be held at any location, at a time that feels right — whether days, weeks, or months later, to honour your loved one with dignity and meaning.

About me

My name is Laura Chalmers and I am an independent civil celebrant. I have lived in the Aberdeenshire for over 30 years.

I have worked in healthcare and in the higher education sectors and bring this experience to the role of Celebrant, delivering ceremonies with emotional resonance, that serve as a source of comfort and inspiration.

My belief

I hold a deep appreciation for the role that ceremony and celebration plays in our lives. It is through shared memories and personal narratives that we truly honour a life lived.

Creating meaningful and dignified ceremonies with you:
