celebrator
One marking milestones
A celebrator is someone who celebrates—whether participating in a holiday, festival, or special occasion, or expressing joy and praise for something.
The word appears most often in contexts describing groups: Celebrators filled the streets after the team's victory.
It can also mean one who officiates a ceremony, particularly a priest conducting Mass.
