Jane Ide
Trans inclusive celebrant based in the Peak District. Honouring life, celebrating love.
As a professional celebrant I create unique and truly personal ceremonies, celebrations, rites and rituals.
We all have moments in life when we stand at the door of a new chapter, welcome a new member of our family, or have to say farewell to someone we have loved. Those moments deserve to be marked in ways that are truly unique; where every word spoken comes from the heart and reflects your own special story.
The trigger for me to move into celebrancy came from seeing friends in the trans community going through their journeys of transition, having the courage to come out and tell their families, friends and colleagues that they were changing their name and their pronouns - but having no opportunity for a celebration, no rite of passage, nothing to mark the moment other than the change of an email address.
That seemed to me just wrong, in a world where every other community can celebrate the key transitions in life publicly, in whatever way they choose, and be surrounded by love when they do so.
I'm proud to have been trained by the International College of Professional Celebrants, the largest and most highly regarded civil celebrancy training organisation in the world; and to be fully committed to my own continuing professional development in order to keep growing my knowledge and understanding of the ways in which I can support people through celebrations, rituals and ceremonies that come from the heart.

What my clients say...
Jane is an excellent Celebrant. She is professional, personable and very empathetic. She is an excellent listener and took the time to beautifully craft a eulogy that really captured who my Gran was. She is a friendly person and depite the sadness I was feeling at the time she was able to share in the joy I was also feeling when describing the love I have for this special person. I would highly recommend Jane as a Celebrant to guide you through the funeral process, as I truly felt her presence alongside me throughout.
Heartfelt conversation without having to find words. Jane has the power to inspire confidence resulting in a beautiful ceremony.
Jane has a powerful ability to be attentive and entirely genuine. Being present at a recent funeral service that Jane compassionately and carefully crafted I was able to observe the comfort this brought to the family members. To witness the joy and laughter she was able to include in the service while remaining poignant and respectful was most comforting for all who were present. Jane is quite simply a master of her craft.
