Meet Your Celebrant in Newark
I’m Sheryl Monk — a storyteller, ritual-maker, and quiet space-holder. My background might surprise you. I spent decades in the courtroom as a barrister and manager of lawyers.
These days, I’m a passionate celebrant based in a lovely village between Newark and Lincoln. I feel truly honoured to help non-religious people and those of many different beliefs celebrate life’s important moments across the UK and beyond.
A wedding is one of life’s most beautiful moments. As a wedding celebrant, I help couples create deeply personal ceremonies, including writing vows that truly reflect their relationship.
We can weave in fun elements or meaningful rituals such as handfasting, creating a ceremony that feels both magical and heartfelt.
A Unique Love Story Your story matters. When we chat, I will gently explore the journey that brought you together and the moments that shaped your relationship.
It is amazing how a personalised ceremony can capture the spirit of your shared story and celebrate the life you are building together.
Saying goodbye to someone we love is never easy. I specialise in creating heartfelt funeral and memorial ceremonies that honour a life with dignity, compassion, and care.
If you would like support during this time, we can talk together about how best to celebrate your loved one’s story.
Pet Memorial Ceremonies
Losing a pet can feel like losing a member of the family. I offer pet memorial ceremonies that give you space to cry, remember, and honour their life.
As the owner of two Labradors, I understand this kind of loss deeply.
Naming Ceremonies and Family Celebrations
Life is full of beautiful milestones. Welcoming a new soul into the world through a birth or naming ceremony is a joyful occasion filled with love and laughter.
I work with families across Newark, Lincoln, and the wider East Midlands to create meaningful celebrations for these special moments.
Vow Renewals and Commitments
If you are thinking about a vow renewal ceremony, I absolutely love helping couples reaffirm their commitment.
Renewing your vows is a beautiful way to celebrate enduring love and gather the people who matter most to mark your journey together.
Personalised Celebrant Ceremonies
I work with people of many different beliefs and backgrounds. Some couples prefer a completely non-religious ceremony, while others like to include small spiritual or traditional elements that feel meaningful to them.
Because celebrant-led ceremonies are flexible, we can include readings, rituals, hymns, prayers, or symbolic moments if they are important to you or your family. The ceremony is always designed around your wishes.
Whether your ceremony takes place in Newark, Lincoln, or elsewhere in the UK, I will create something that feels authentic, warm, and deeply personal.
