Sunrise to Sunset Ceremonies

I am Rev. Gerard Doody, the founder of Sunrise to Sunset Ceremonies,

where we offer professional ceremonial services across Ireland and Northern Ireland. My dedicated team and I provide personalised, meaningful, and respectful legal ceremonies for a wide range of occasions, including weddings, funerals, naming ceremonies, and more.

At Sunrise to Sunset Ceremonies, we believe that every ceremony should reflect the unique story of the individuals involved. We specialise in creating bespoke wedding ceremonies that truly embody the love and journey of each couple. From the initial consultation to the final vows, we ensure that every detail aligns with your vision, crafting a day that is as unforgettable as your love story.

In addition to weddings, we offer personalised naming ceremonies that celebrate the arrival of a new life. These ceremonies are designed to welcome your child into the community, creating a memorable and joyful experience for both the child and the family that will be cherished for years to come.

When it comes to saying goodbye, our compassionate team offers dignified funeral services that honour the memory of your loved ones with the utmost respect and empathy. We work closely with families to create a meaningful and heartfelt tribute, offering comfort and support during such a difficult time.

We are here to ensure that every aspect of your ceremony is handled with care, creating experiences that reflect your values, wishes, and the special moments in your life. Our goal is to guide you through each significant moment with professionalism, empathy, and love, ensuring the ceremony is a true reflection of you and your loved ones.

Commitment to Compassionate Service

Alongside my work as a legal officiant, I also serve the community as a member of the National Ambulance Service. Both of these roles allow me to make a positive impact on people’s lives in different but equally meaningful ways. As a celebrant, I’m privileged to help individuals and families celebrate and commemorate life's milestones, while my role with the National Ambulance Service allows me to serve in a critical, supportive capacity when people are in urgent need of care.

Both of these paths have been incredibly rewarding, teaching me invaluable lessons in empathy, resilience, and service. I look forward to continuing this dual journey—providing compassionate and personalised ceremonies, while also serving the community through my work with the National Ambulance Service.

In conclusion, being a celebrant and serving with the National Ambulance Service are distinct yet deeply fulfilling aspects of my life. Both roles have enriched me in countless ways, and I’m excited for the future as I continue to make a positive difference in the lives of those I serve. Whether through the joyful celebrations of love and life or the compassionate care in times of need, I’m honoured to serve my community and provide services that are grounded in empathy, respect, and love.
