About Me – Colette Ashby Celebrant
I am absolutely a people person and end up talking to myself if I am on my own for more than about 2 hours! Luckily I have a cat so if everyone is out I can chat to him…
Friends describe me as positive, bubbly, warm and friendly and I love to bring people together to celebrate life’s happy occasions.
Over 20 years experience as a Leadership and Public Speaking Skills Trainer has given me a wealth of knowledge and expertise in engaging groups of people, speaking in public and organising events… perfect preparation for my career as a professional celebrant.
When you engage me as your celebrant you will find me engaging, organised and professional. I love to hear all about you and sprinkle a bit of sparkle into your story!
From the very moment you book me to the time you say ‘I do’ I will work my little socks off to create a lifetime of happy memories for you, your friends and family – the perfect ceremony for you.
In 2022 I won 3 industry awards: LuxeLife Global, Weddings Inc and International Wedding Awards, for Celebrant of the Year. I am also a regional finalist in The Wedding Industry Awards, so you’re in safe hands with me!
I have performed in bands as a singer and currently sing in a choir. My voice coach is a former West End musical star so I set my sights high when it comes to performing duets!
I love to dance and keep fit by doing dance-exercise classes and pilates. Then I go home and have a raspberry vodka with tonic, which contains fruit and is therefore good for you.
I love working with a diverse range of couples to really get to know them and help to make their day special and memorable.
