‘You’re the bun for me’😂
🍔National Burger Day🍔
How cheesy will you be?

🍔The trusty burger - thought to be invented during the 1930s Great Depression to stave off hunger and poverty with offcuts of meat.
🍔Traditionally, burgers were made of beef and the majority still are, but rather than dubious offcuts, quality minced beef is used more often nowadays.
🍔But, as with many foodstuffs, with beef burgers it is normally a case of you get what you pay for: if you buy a pack of cheap burgers - your burger is more likely to be made of lower quality ingredients.
🍔A good quality beef burger can certainly be a meal in itself when served in a bun with perhaps bacon, cheese, salad, onions, eggs, relish, ketchup….
🍔But of course, apart from varying qualities and a dazzling array of serving options and sides, increasingly people are choosing other burger options such as chicken, fish or tasty vegetarian and vegan options.

💛The trusty celebrant-led wedding - pioneered in the 1970s, to offer marrying couples choice and freedom to establish ceremonies of meaning and substance for everyone.
💛Traditional weddings are still a big thing, but the option of a celebrant-led wedding allows you to be totally in charge of the words and actions of your own ceremony.
💛There are cheaper versions out there, and you get what you pay for; especially the perfunctory registry office delivery - offering a limited and impersonal ceremony.
💛A celebrant-led ceremony is a quality wedding ceremony and will not disappoint; being money well spent and the best wedding decision ever!
💛A celebrant-led wedding ceremony can offer an array of options, you can include all the elements you have dreamt, along with being totally non-discriminative and fully inclusive; you can let your imagination fly - the sky’s the limit!

💛Let’s chat, choose me as your celebrant and let’s see how cheesy you can be!

The winter solstice is upon us, the longest night of the year, or the shortest day, which ever way you view it in a cup half full or empty sort of way.
It’s the perfect time to appreciate the fullness of life and all we have to enjoy with one another.
Celebrating the solstice is tradition, where moons ago, people would bring branches into their homes as a reminder of the return of the green and emerging new growth, and light candles during the long nights to invite the sun back into their lives.
Nowadays as we get caught up with our own winter celebrations and bring a tree into our homes, and adorn it with bright lights, whereby we can be reminded that the spring and sun are not too far away. We gather our dearest loved ones during the darkest and coldest time of the year, and celebrate our traditions and good times and look to the future and all that it will bring.

What a wonderful time to celebrate a union, and create the ‘wow’ setting for your wedding ceremony. There is something breathtaking about a winter wedding.
Imagine your ceremonial backdrop, with beautiful rustic greenery and winter foliage, festooned with lights and gorgeous candles, wooden rustic tables decorated with the colours of winter and touches of greenery, and sharing a wedding favour of roasted chestnuts and hot chocolates with marshmallows, creating the most magnificent magical stunning scene.
Sharing your vows and promises with your friends and loved ones, with maybe the inspiration of beautiful readings like The Little Yellow Leaf by Carin Berger:
And then, high up on an icy branch, a scarlet flash.
One more leaf holding tight.
“You’re here?” Called the Little Yellow Leaf.
“I am,” said the Little Scarlet Leaf.
“Like me!” Said the Little Scarlet Leaf.
Neither spoke.
Finally… “Will you?” asked the Little Yellow Leaf.
And one, two, three, they let go and soared

Get in touch to book a future solstice for your wedding ceremony plans, and lets work together to create something unique!

May your celebrations be merry and bright, and full of love, magic and glowing candlelight!

‘Tis the season to … get engaged … falalala lalala.
Did you know : over 40% of marriage proposals take place between November and February, with a surge over Christmas and New Years.
Is your moment just around the corner? Or has it already happened?

After the ‘will you marry me?’ question is popped - and you say ‘yes!’ - what do you do now?
A common question many couples ask, as getting married is not an everyday occurrence, so it's only natural to ask what to do next.

This is where I can step in. I can guide you through the process, the legalities and what you need to do to make your ceremony plans and dream day come true.

We can work together to craft a ceremony that is tailored to your style and personalities, one that can be completely unique to you, a reflection of your love story and your journey to this moment.

Contact me to ‘save YOUR date’ and let’s get working on your big day!

Not getting married in a church or other religious setting? But want to enjoy the freedom to include your beliefs as part of your ceremony?
If you use a celebrant-led ceremony you can invite God to your wedding!
A celebrant can make your day just how you would like it.
The restrictions of a registrar-led marriage ceremony does not allow any religious content, no hymns, no readings, no religious rituals, no God.
If you would like to invite God to your wedding ceremony then I can offer you that choice.
Get the legal part done first, and then we can have the ‘licence’ to get creative and include your religious tones and wishes. We can incorporate your faith, beliefs and spiritual elements.
No matter your faith, culture, background or combination of religion, we can work together to please you both.
You have chosen each other, now choose your celebrant and have the right to have ‘your day your way’.
