Beautiful words and music for life’s most meaningful moments.
My name is Gavin Beaumont. For many years, I have supported weddings and funerals as a church and crematorium organist.
As live music has gradually been replaced by electronic systems, I felt called to contribute in a more personal way and qualified as a Celebrant last year. Having been part of so many services, I know how vital it is to offer something original and uplifting.
Alongside my work as a musician, I have written bespoke poems for weddings and funerals for many years. I now combine these skills to offer personalised poetry and musical contributions that add warmth, meaning, and individuality to your ceremony.
Every piece is personally written and composed, never using AI, and created to help make your ceremony truly memorable.
Perfect for weddings, vow renewals, funerals, celebrations of life, and naming days.

Reviews
A few kind words from past clients
“Gavin recently wrote a amazing poem for the tribute to my late Father it was so good people are asking for copies - would recommend any time”
“Gavin has the extraordinary gift of writing poems which beautifully portray the life, character and personality of a loved one. With his wisdom
and pathos he eloquently puts into words how they were regarded, loved and will be missed with respect, grace and a sprinkling of humour to bring a smile to those that knew them”
“Gavin is a stalwart of the village’s musical community. His work on the production of ‘The Christmas Carol’ in St Augustine’s was marvellous and his pacy, swashbuckling annual contributions to the switching on of the Christmas lights are much treasured”
