In honour of the life, love and far reaching impact of treasured daughter, fiancé, family member, work colleague, friend, community builder, musician and friend to all!
Her footprints are everywhere in every community she lived; her gift to us all - keep life simple, treasured and about each other! Sonya Pearson Rest in Peace.

A life taken too soon! Our lives better for knowing her and being touched by her!
Deepest love and sympathy to her mum and fiancé and families!

Today I salute the most influential woman in my life - my mother!

Born in a societal era of subservience; enduring challenging wellbeing and confidence failing episodes throughout her early life, to go on to create a legacy where her children achieved more and everything she prayed for and encouraged them to be.

Her remaining legacy is that each of her grandchildren who were fortunate to know her, are influenced by the same grace, quietness and determination that creates great today's and better tomorrows!

To great mothers who sewed, knitted, bandaged, encouraged and funded a best life for her children's children.

Family...they make teamwork look easy! A little to the right!

Last night I did my life's perspective a favour, a reboot and an injection of gratitude and watched at QPAC's, Cremorne Theatre "Is That You, Ruthie?"

The true story of a mother and daughter's journey through deep pain and separation experienced by many First Nations people when removed from country and placed in missions.

Thank you Leah Purcell Official and Dr Ruth Hegarty.

Highly recommended!

Celebrating the moments again with Connor and Tamika!

25/11/2023

What a special end to my last 2023 ceremony!
Dad (Don) walked along side Emily (with tears) as a show of support for her marriage to Will!
Emily and Will first met in Year 9 when her family moved to Dalby!
She first thought they had abandoned her to an island of silly 14 year old boys!
Well, today she married one of them and Will demonstrated just how funny he and his mates were then, and still are today!

If you are looking for a celebrant that loves being in the moment with you, send me a message to see what I can help with.

How amazing after 25 years to run into Marnie the photographer! Can't wait to see your captures!

When you want your favourite emus to be part of your day...but you couldn't catch them! Pop their feathers on your pen!
Congratulations to Darren and Trudie and your magnificent family.
So lovely to be part of another Rowbotham and Law family occasion.

Today - vows, rings, brooch and kiss!

When you marry a Mackay, a brooch comes with! Kilt not necessary!

04/11/2023

There are moments during wedding ceremonies that stay with me forever.
Today it was between grandson and grandfather as he penned his signature to Brayden and Brittani's marriage certificates.
Wonderful team to work with at Jimbour House. Thank you Madison and Samantha and the team from About Time Co.
Wind was not going to win today!

A extra special memory to hold dear! Thanks Lauren and Dave!

That time when the Celebrant married the Celebrant 😂

Local Celebrant legend in these parts, and a true gentleman, recently did the honours for us at our own wedding, and it was all kinds of wonderful!

We’re very spoilt for choice of all sorts of wedding vendors here in the beautiful South Burnett.
