Absolutely perfect
“We have received so many compliments about you and your service, that it was absolutely perfect.”

Exactly what we wanted and more…
The beauty of that ceremony far surpassed our expectations. It was exactly what we wanted and more. The gentleness of your voice soothed us, the time you invested to know us, showed up in the service, and we are forever grateful for your presence on that very special day. You truly have a gift for performing wedding ceremonies, and we would ask you again if we had to do it all over. I was especially touched when you asked for a moment of silence to pay respect to my mom and Jackson’s siblings who had passed. I knew in that moment that this for you is a calling. Thank you and God Bless!

She really gets to the heart of you…
From the moment we met with Rev. Scott we knew that we had found the 'perfect' person to conduct our wedding. She really gets to the heart of you and puts into words the reason that you want this personal ceremony in the first place. We didn't want a church service in a religion that we didn't follow, but something spiritual that reflected our own feelings and understanding of life. Being a second marriage for both of us, it was also really important that our children were an integral part of the service as it really was a union of two families. Ingrid understood all of this perfectly, and with her help, we fashioned a ceremony that was absolutely perfect.

You brought soul, feeling and depth…
It was a beautiful day and your service was really special, everyone commented on it. You brought soul, feeling and depth to what has often seemed a formal, functional part of a wedding day in some weddings I’ve attended.
Your guidance, support and preparation with us beforehand was also done with a lot of care and love which was much appreciated.
Rob & Jacqualene
Completely unique
Right from the very first conversations and meeting, Ingrid opened our eyes and minds to the many options available to us, ideas which we have never even considered. She listened to everything we talked about, and the ideas and plans we already had and then supplied us with ways in which to bring these to life through different mediums. The finished product was a beautifully personal wedding which included a variety of readings, ceremonies, prayers, songs and vows and also a mix of modern, Christian and traditional elements. It was completely unique to us whilst still cherishing some of the romantically traditional wedding formalities.

Perfection
Reverend Scott prepared a unique service, we were to be her first gay couple she was a blessing and it was a great honour for us both. Her personalised ceremony reflected our parents support and love with the true love of friendships bonding and uniting our partnership and union to perfection.

Profoundly special
We are writing to thank you for the beautiful naming ceremony that you created for our son Kai. Your words and energy mixed the ceremony with the perfect blend of religious sentiment and family thoughts. There is nothing more important than family and the welcoming of Kai into our lives in front of the people we care most about was a day that we will all remember. Thank you for making those memories even better than what we could have hoped. Thank you for making it profoundly special for us and everybody there. You are God's instrument to bring Light, Peace and Love to people.
With warmth and gratitude,
Graham and Lucy
Our friends and family are still talking about it
We wanted to acknowledge the birth of our son without the formalities and generic feel of a church service. Ingrid gave us a ceremony that was personal and beautiful and just what we wanted. We gave Ingrid free reign to put the ceremony together and she didn't fail to disappoint. We received a tailored, intimate ceremony for our son that really reflected us. Our friends and family are still talking about it.

Funerals
Calmness and serenity
When my young son Christopher died who had no specific faith, and was a non-conformist in every aspect of his life and loved Heavy Metal music! Ingrid made everything possible, making sure every prayer, every reading, indeed every detail was a true reflection of my son. With limitless patience, Ingrid guided us through the process with appropriate prayers and readings that Chris would have appreciated and helped us edit the Eulogy and music to suit time constraints. At no time did we feel hurried or coerced. It was as important to Ingrid as it was to us to get it all right for Chris.
Come the day with emotions riding high, Ingrid imbued a calmness and serenity throughout the proceedings. Those who attended still comment on her eye contact with key family members during the service and her wonderful rich voice.
Despite our sorrow and pain, Christopher`s funeral was filled with truth and love, joy and humour and I know deep in my heart that he would have loved it all.
Safe in the knowledge that our choices would have been his, our grief has been softened.
Thank you, Ingrid, for your unfailing professionalism, compassion and support at such a difficult time.

A day of joy and celebration that began my own recovery
When my wife passed away I wanted someone to design and lead a service that would focus on her life and her essence. Ingrid provided a service that was exactly what I had asked for but she did it in a loving and kind way that I will always be grateful for. What could have been a day I wanted to forget, became a day of joy and celebration that began my own recovery.
Jeremy
Forward planning
I’m very pleased with the funeral service that Ingrid created for me from my instructions; which will take the stress from my family.
Christine
Understanding and empathy
Losing a younger sibling suddenly and in tragic circumstances was quite simply devastating for everyone who knew her; helping to organise her funeral was one of the hardest and certainly most emotionally challenging tasks I have ever had to take on. Ingrid listened and spent time working with our immediate families and circle of close friends, many of whom come from different religious and cultural backgrounds, to produce a non-denominational service celebrating the life and achievements of my wonderfully talented sister. Throughout the service, Ingrid introduced and invited family members and friends to speak, interlacing her own thoughts with compassion, understanding and empathy, helping everyone present to deal with their grief both collectively and individually during and after the service. Although there was great sadness, Ingrid somehow managed to bring out smiles and even occasional laughter.
Quite simply, Ingrid helped.

Compassion, warmth, truth and spirituality
My mother left the earth on September 14th 2019 and I was instructed by her through her final words to create the most perfect end in celebration of her life. I envisaged a ceremony filled with compassion, warmth, truth and spirituality so it was only fitting for me to consult the availability and later I enlisted the support of Reverend Doctor Ingrid Scott.
My mother’s life was both complex and simple and I struggled to compile her eulogy and felt its development required a thoughtful and knowledgeable approach neither of which my grief would allow. Reverend Scott met with me and I was placed at ease through reminiscent conversation journeying through my mothers life cycle and with these words Reverend Scott created the most fitting and bespoke eulogy, words delivered with grace of which I will eternally grateful for.
In addition to creating my mother’s eulogy Dr Scott wrote and delivered my mother’s crematorium service with poise and appropriateness. Blending both her life and her memory in a true representation of who she really was. Family members have continued to speak in awe of its contents and felt that the tone and nature was befitting to the amazing woman that she was.
I will remain forever grateful and glad for Reverend Scott’s presence and input in my mother’s home going, she will be forever recommended.

Thank you for your kindness
I would like to express sincere gratitude to you for being there for us during our most difficult time. You spoke eloquently about our Mum. I don’t think we can adequately express how much you words meant to us. Thank you for your kindness.
