A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

Portrait of Tracy O'Sullivan-Gribbon Smiling Togetherness Wedding Funeral and Family Celebrant Northern Ireland

My name is Tracy, a Wedding, Funeral and Family Celebrant based in Northern Ireland. I was raised in Holywood, Co. Down but now reside in Co. Antrim with my husband, two children and Bazil, my crazy dachshund. I trained to be a Celebrant because I welcomed the change of ideas on how to have a celebration in more interesting and exciting venues. I am privileged to have spent my entire life doing jobs that I am passionate about. My background is in the airline industry and at present I am a part-time lecturer for special needs adults in further education. I am also a qualified yoga instructor, teaching in my local community. All of which have led me perfectly to becoming a Celebrant. I love to meet new people, learn from them and educate onwards from my findings in life whilst always remaining the student.

I have a passion for promoting inclusion to all and welcome changes for disabilities, I love to be able to reach out and help others. To officiate at weddings, funerals, vow renewals and naming ceremonies allows me the opportunity to provide a bespoke ceremony, tailored, created and presented in a dynamic and meticulous style. My aim is to make the ceremony as unique as you would like it to be and allow the precious memory of your day be carried with you through your journey in life. Knowing when to blend in and when to stand out will be my focus, reaching out, to lend my skills for your togetherness times.

In between times, I love family walks, teaching yoga & enjoy many flat whites with friends and adore any opportunity to travel somewhere new.

My interests lie around working with people, meeting new people and helping to create change. Throughout my career I have undertaken a variety of fundraising events for various charities within Northern Ireland. Events ranging from formal black tie events to style and craft fairs, golf outings and more. The coming together of people to attend such events with the joy of giving back in life, was what enthused me to seize every opportunity to help with change. My experience organising and public speaking is perhaps what has given me the confidence to go onwards into teaching, yoga teaching and now as a Celebrant. The great news is that the fundraising will never end and will always be a big part of my life, allowing me to give back and support causes close to my heart.

I would be very happy to meet with you prior to your final decision being made to use me as your Celebrant, as I know how important it is to have the right person come onboard for your special day.
