Marie Macintyre-Thomson — Tue, 14 May 2013 18:09:58 +0000

On Saturday Marie conducted baby Teigan’s naming ceremony at the family oriented Kippax band club, a great time was had by all especially baby Teigan who was the star of the show. Teigan kept pulling the microphone from Marie which was so cute and raised many laughs. This can be seen on Marie’s facebook page and will be added to this post shortly.Facebook page by invite only.

There are still a few dates left this year for naming ceremonies but please save your date very soon to avoid disappointment.

Weddings in Egypt

Marie Macintyre-Thomson — Tue, 14 May 2013 18:03:49 +0000

After having an operation on my spine and having some recuperation time in Egypt, not one to rest on my laurels I have secured another prestige five star venue in a very quiet spot with its own beach and coral reef whilst in Egypt. The hotels (two sister hotels) are willing to give Circle Of Life Ceremonies Uk clients a preferential rate deal on the wedding package plus accommodation for guests attending the wedding. Flights, although we will advise on the most affordable way of booking, will be the sole responsibility of the client to arrange. I will be adding pictures of the resort which is excellent and the staff are all so friendly and helpful. There are several top class swimming pools on site and several shops and beauty shop and spa for that special day make over and hairdressing.
I am the only Celebrant to conduct weddings here and will be assisted by Diane Saxby who will be covering her area of Poole in Dorset, Bournemouth and the Cotswolds to ensure her clients have this prestige resort as a choice of overseas venue.
Imagine your own beach for your wedding day in a hot climate. A beautiful photo shoot. Have a wedding with the difference that makes the difference.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for the new year, to all clients past and present.

I would like to wish all my clients past and present a beautiful healthy happy Christmas with your friends and family. It has been a very successful year with ceremonies of all kinds from weddings, theme weddings, blessings and civil ceremonies please have a peek at our picture gallery. I have conducted weddings in beautiful castles, outdoor in the lovely Yorkshire Dales. In hotels and vintage back yard weddings. Congratulations to all the Mr & Mrs that I have brought together and all those who have renewed their vows this year. XX

Celebration of life ceremonies: My thoughts go out to all those families who I have had the honour of working with since Circle Of Life Ceremonies UK began. The loss of a loved one is not easy at the best of times, but that loss always seems harder at the festive seasons. My thoughts are with you as I light a universal candle for those that I have had the honour of conduct their celebration of life. XX Love and light to a dear friend Una Pearce who worked tirelessly for The forget me not charity…
We forget you not Una x

Naming ceremonies: At the beginning of The Circle Of Life spectrum I had the pleasure of conducting many baby / child naming ceremonies in very unusual venues. May each child and their families have a healthy happy Christmas XX

Beautiful boy indeed!

2013: I am looking forward to working with many couples and families that have already booked me for their weddings and naming ceremonies for next year. Peace and goodwill to you all XX

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Mitch Pegden.. Carlton Towers

Marie Macintyre-Thomson — Sun, 23 Sep 2012 19:07:38 +0000

Castle Wedding….Marie conducted a beautiful wedding at Carlton Towers for Sara and Mitch, the sun shone all day it must have been the nicest day of the year. As you can see by the photo’s the venue was awesome and the bride looked like she had just stepped out of a magazine page, she looked just perfect given away by her very proud father, although he decided to sit down before the giving away and our photographer captured the moment in real time, all part of our service. The couple read their own vows of promises as Marie helped to create them. Marie has worked with this lovely couple for many months before their big day. Another successful Circle Of Life Ceremony….Marie x

Peak District Barn Wedding…

Marie Macintyre-Thomson — Wed, 12 Sep 2012 17:15:40 +0000

Congratulations Sue & Nigel on your marriage and for completing your 5K MARATHON only hours before for charity. The day was one of the warmest of the year the sun shone, the backdrop of the wedding scene was awesome and the way they decorated the barn was delightful. Nigel himself had done most of the cooking which was finer than any five star hotel, he also made the cake, having been invited to stay and eat with their lovely guests I can say Bella Vista… I love conducting weddings like this which in my opinion, its a case of less is more.

A perfect day

Marie and Diana Saxby conducts all their own ceremonies.

Marie Macintyre-Thomson — Sun, 26 Aug 2012 00:38:43 +0000

Unlike some other Yorkshire celebrant companies who employ a franchise of celebrants to conduct the ceremonies on their behalf, Marie conducts all her ceremonies herself. Marie feels it is important to meet and greet the client in person and get to know them, she then creates and writes the bespoke ceremony scripts herself, being a professional writer and poet and having many works published. Some Yorkshire celebrants are getting other untrained people to write for them, thus churning out mediocre scripts, be wary if a celebrant tells you they work all over the country on the same day, the logistics of this is impossible unless they enlist the help of others under the one banner. Choose the personal service with the difference that makes the difference. Remember Circle Of Life Ceremonies UK is Marie and only Marie. If searching for her on Google always add UK. It appears that many other celebrants seem to like the branding and the name. Marie’s legal team are watching.
If you require a celebrant in the Dorset area Marie recommends Diana Saxby who covers the Cotswolds, Devon, Bournemouth, The New Forest, Worcs, Oxford and surrounding areas and is willing to travel. Having trained with Marie and continuing their professional development together in many areas of this work, Marie sees Diana as a trusted friend and colleague who is equally as passionate about her vocation as an independent celebrant as Marie is. Both Marie and Diana are members of a professional body The Association of Independent Celebrants (A.O.I.C.) Marie and Diana work to the same high standards with integrity and professionalism. Visit Diana’s website and guestbook page and see for your self. She offers sincere ceremonies as does Marie and neither use formatted scripts. Diana is the preferred supplier of many elite venues including the 5*****star Chewton Glen Hotel and Spa in the New Forest. Take a look at: www.gracetheday.com/guestbook.asp
