Who we are
Professional celebrants for creating and officiating bespoke ceremonies in Italy
Our Celebrants
Different backgrounds, same passionOur Story
Celebrating life's Passaggi since 2014After gaining diplomas in Funeral Celebrancy and Wedding Celebrancy in the UK from the Fellowship of Independent Celebrants (FOIC), Clarissa and Sarah formed Passaggi in order to provide support and ritual to people who seek non-religious ceremonies for the important passages of life: funerals, weddings, civil unions, naming ceremonies and renewal of vows.
We have since had the privilege to expand our team with the addition of Giulia, Aldo and Renata and to celebrate funerals in Rome and Central Italy and weddings throughout Italy.
We are all members of the national association of celebrants Federcelebranti. Clarissa and Sarah are involved in training and examining Italian celebrants on behalf of Federcelebranti. We firmly believe that growing the number of well-trained celebrants in Italy will not only raise the standard of the profession but also provide more options for the growing number of people seeking them for important moments in their lives.
Since our humble beginnings in 2014, we’ve made a name for ourselves collecting positive mentions in the press and kind words from people who have used our services.
All of this would not have been possible on our own: as independent celebrants we’ve been able to rely on a structured network of collaborators who have contributed to different aspects of our work with professionalism and care.
We’re proud of what we’ve achieved together so far and are looking forward to what comes next!
