Alice Bye - Avant Garde Ceremonies

Born and raised in Aberdeen, to Anglo-Indian and Anglo-Irish Parents, number 8 of a family of 10, with 3 brothers and 6 sisters. Growing up in a large family gave me the experience of finding my voice but also knowing the importance of listening to others. I am able to offer a personalised ceremony, solely catered around the client and their wishes. Allowing them to shape the ceremony they are looking for, a sense of the ceremony, belonging to them. Working with a wide range of people and ages I can communicate effectively, giving support and guidance required in delivering a ceremony family will be happy and comfortable with. When my husband and I were to marry, it was to be the 2nd time for us both and we knew our wedding ceremony, needed to be a true reflection of ourselves. Unique, inclusive and memorable, something which was achieved with the help of our celebrant, family and friends. From this positive experience, I wish to give others the same joy and pleasure we gained and allow them to plan the wedding of their dreams. A day of love and happiness which will forever remain in their hearts and memories. Be it a Wedding, Vow Renewal, Naming Ceremony, Funeral or Memorial, it will be written with empathy, sensitivity and creativity but ultimately written with the person, persons in mind. In my spare time, I am a vintage Vespa driver and music lover – going to gigs and scooter rallies across the country. Spending time with my family as much as possible, collecting vintage clothes, furniture, home accessories and knickknacks. I am also a small-time record collector who does the occasional DJing, alongside my husband and sons.
