You don’t just move through your life with events happening to you. You experience those events. You can look back at them, think about them and in your mind, you give them meaning.
You can look forward and think about your future. You can make plans. And you can choose to live this one life well.

We had a wonderful day and many people commented on how having a Humanist ceremony made it a much more moving and personal experience.

Wow, that was amazing. Never in a million years could I have pulled off what you did this evening. It was brilliant and you’ve most definitely raised the bar in celebrating milestone birthdays. That was pure magic!

Gary arranged a surprise 50th Birthday party for me, ‘This is your life’ OMG I was so surprised, what a fantastic night, thank you so much to Gary and all of my family and friends that contributed to making my 50th so special, I love you all xxx
Wow, I never thought my 50th birthday would be so much fun! It started with a surprise ‘This is your life’ party, followed by a surprise trip to a place that I had always wanted to visit, Dublin. This is one birthday I will never ever forget. Thank you Gary John Vaudin
