This review means a lot.

As a mum to the Bride and Groom, I had no idea what Ben, Billie and Andrew had prepared for their ceremony. All I knew was that they trusted him and felt safe in his communications and preparation.

As a Mum, I has hopes the ceremony would be meaningful - that it would hold more essence than just the picture perfect dress or their personal vows. I really wanted the right person to speak those intimate words of
marriage for the two people I love so deeply.

As soon as Ben opened their service I could feel his warmth and sincerity - he held a lightness his words that only a special someone can portray.

He was Incredible. Meaningful.
Witty.
Easy to hear.
Touching.
Relatable.
Embracing.
Reliable.

Above all, he was sincere and we all
could feel it.

His audience, all our favourite people, were captured by what was an eloquent balance of seriousness for marriage, its meaning and commitment but with a touching, personal freshness we related to.

The cheekiness in Ben’s voice was felt and he easily captured laughter in the crowd whilst re-telling the antics of the night they first met - then subtly and graciously he wrapped their laughter into a relatable story of what love can feel like in the richness of time by remembering what love really looks like.

Ben was seamless.
He was meaningful and personable. He was everything and more that as their Mum, I could have hoped for.

Many said it was the best celebrant they had ever heard. Feedback was that Ben was Brilliant. Engaging. Funny. Personal but Private.

I say Perfect
Forever Grateful

Today I celebrated my first Viking wedding.

Marriage Prayer for F***g
by Jack Roe

Fairest F***g, Fensalir’s Lady,

Friend of families, matron of marriage,

Most gracious of goddesses, hear my hailing.

I pray for myself and for her with whom I am handfast,

I pray for peace between our bonds,

I pray for our love to last through the long years

And all the woes that the world can wish on us.

I pray for patience on both our parts,

That we may salve each other’s sight,

Every time we return to the haven of home.

Yet most of all I ask for aid

When anger burns, and baleful words

Come forth to fire each others’ false suspicions.

Help us to turn once again to trust,

And come with courtesy to the table,

And talk, and find a fairer road to walk.

O F***g who keeps our knotted cord,

Show us the shared road through the thorns.

So what a fantastic 4 days driving like a camel train on a whirl wind solo tour from Canberra to Bunbury, on a last min trip to help a friend bring back their horse float and trailer which has been stuck over east. Luckily I was able to snap a few pics along the way, happy to be back safe in Bunvegas,

I chose the name Celebrations for a Lifetime because as a Celebrant I am privileged to provide ceremonies from life’s beginning to end. This morning I officiated a Celebration of Life at the Bunbury Crematorium and this afternoon a lovely private wedding ceremony overlooking the City of Bunbury.
