Patricia Higgins

I have a passion for creating ceremonies that are authentic and meaningful and fit with where people are at. My interest in becoming a wedding celebrant started in 2005 after my husband and I received very positive feedback about our own wedding ceremony: a joyful occasion which we designed and created ourselves. As a OneSpirit Interfaith Minister, I am committed to finding ways that allow you to express and connect with what you believe most deeply, at the times you when need it most.

​

To the task of Wedding Celebrant and Funeral Celebrant, I bring over 20 years of experience of gathering people to create innovative celebrations together, through my work in young adult and family ministry. I have studied theology, economics, and nonprofit management, and have worked in the nonprofit sector for over 15 years in leadership roles, including as manager of an Intercultural Centre, and as a lecturer in nonprofit economics. I also bring a diploma in speech and drama, and a love of creating and holding a space for people to feel connected.

And perhaps most important of all, I bring my experience of being a wife, a mum, a daughter, a sister and a best friend: of the highs and lows of life and what can truly help to mark them.
