Does the fear of ugly-crying at your wedding keep you up at night?
TAG your emotional bestie 🥹
1. Your mascara will be fine! 😭 That’s why you hired a professional, right? I’ve seen hundreds of brides up close seconds after the tears have started and mascara always holds. Even brides going for the natural look have enough coverage that a snail trail down your foundation does little damage. Let your Makeup artist know you’re likely to be letting the floodgates open on your big day, and you’ll not only be amazed with their wizardry, BUT you’ll resist the urge to touch your face throughout the ceremony, which means you can fully focus on the forever person standing in front of you.
2. Reserve one of your arms for a VIP that’ll keep it together FOR YOU when you take those first steps down the aisle. If your Dad is likely to shed a tear with you, enlist your mother, brother, uncle or someone who knows what to say to crack a smile before the music swells. And if it still feels like it’ll be too intense, arrange a First Look between you and the love of your life. Seeing each other for the first time without bystanders takes the pressure off maintaining composure for the camera, however you feel in that moment. And bonus, you get another unforgettable memory of your big day.
3. Own it! Weddings are supposed to be heart-on-sleeve days, and I know for a fact that there will be others losing it right along with you. Even the ugliest of criers like my little sister in this reel can manage to turn off the waterworks by the time the ceremony starts. All it takes is some quick wit from the celebrant or a reassuring smile from your other half. Make a bet and be prepared to hand over a pineapple to the love-of-your-life when you arrive at the altar in all your tear-stained glory.

Does the thought of writing your own wedding vows make you wanna hightail it outta your own ceremony? 💨
Here are my TOP 3 TIPS for wearing your heart on your sleeve…
1. Unless you make a living in comedy, stay clear of in-jokes, embarrassing anecdotes of your partner and anything your in-laws would balk at. If you don’t know, it’s a HARD NO! 🙅
2. Vows these days are less about traditional promises and more an opportunity to share the best parts of your forever person publicly. What do you love about them? Write it down. What first attracted you to them? Write it down. What are you going to do, most days, for the rest of your life, that is going to make them happy? Write it down! ✍️
3. And if you’re worried about turning into a deer-in-headlights when you’re handed the mic? Legal vows in Australia amount to a total less than 20 words. That, you CAN do! Put the rest in a card/letter/video of you saying them and have your partner see this in a quiet moment as they’re getting ready on the day. All the sentiment without the stress! SORTED! 😅

They DID IT! Who gets married 5 days after a tornado and no power? Only legends do! Nothing was going to stop Michael and Bec from having planned their dream day in 8 weeks. Massive shout out to the whole team of vendors who rallied to make this happen without phone reception, without internet, without power until just now! You’re all legends and working with you has been a pleasure in unusual circumstances. LOVE conquers ALL! ❤️
Watch PART ONE to see what happens behind my sister’s back! 👀
My sister Jamie is asked to check out the face she’s pulling in the photo which spells “MARRY ME” instead of “Merry Xmas”.
It takes her a while to register what she’s seeing, and with some prompts from our brother in-law Kerry who set it all up, it CLICKS!
There is Tyne, the love of her life, down on one knee, in front of her whole family, on our favourite day of the year, Christmas Eve 2013.
10 years on it still brings me to tears.
A couple of months later, Jamie and Tyne gave me the biggest gift I’d never even considered. They asked me to become a Marriage Celebrant for their wedding.
Now I have the privilege of sharing love stories for a living, and the joy I get from marrying couples from all walks of life feels like Christmas all year round.
Merry Christmas to Jamie, Tyne and your three beautiful children. And Merry Christmas to all the newlyweds of 2023.
To those newly engaged couples, Just LOVE is all you need to make your wedding dreams come true.
DM to share your story and let the magic begin! ❤️

I almost lost it in this moment.
6 years ago today, the law had changed to recognise same-sex marriages in Australia.
It also happened to be my sister’s wedding, and as supporters of humanity, the significance of the first day where an Australian Marriage Celebrant could say the legal definition of marriage as being no longer between a man and a woman but between two people, was embraced and celebrated.
You can hear it in my voice as I struggle to hold the emotion in. 🥲
6 years on it upsets me to hear from same-sex couples that there are wedding venues and vendors that still discriminate against same-sex weddings. Worse still, there are some that will gladly take the money, and still let the couple know their homophobic views.
There’s still a long way to go. But the vast majority of the wedding legends I’ve worked with are LGTBQIA+ allies.
If you’re a supporter of our LGTBQIA+ community, show your love today. 🌈

Wanna rock a veil for your wedding?
1. Be prepared to lose it! It doesn’t have to be blowing a gale for your veil to catch the breeze and set sail on you, no matter how many thousand bobby pins your hairdresser has used.
2. Enlist your bridesmaid, bridesman or other VIP to hold on to it down the aisle and or during the ceremony, and or give chase when it lets loose.
3. Most importantly have a laugh no matter what happens! It’s a great story for the grandkids, and your guests and your other half will love the smile on your face more than anything else you wear on the day!

I “married” Coco and Sam from Season 8 of MAFS.
With a newborn baby at home my favourite reality TV show MAFS rang me up out of the blue and invited me to take part in one of their weddings! 😅
Here’s my 15 seconds of fame…
