Motto of the family!

Live life like it's your last day! It's way too short!

And this is the perfect example of why I'm always getting out and about exploring! I've been taught to live that way!

Here is a prime example of my influencers. ... my uncle... just a touch over 79 yrs old.. getting on the zip line like he had nothing to lose!

Love it!

What a stunning venue for a private intimate ceremony.
Followed by a lovely lunch under the trees, before this georgous couple head back to Bendigo for thier reception with all the family and friends tonight.

An amazing afternoon spent with a georgous couple for rehearsal.
It's even better with this view and my make-up still on point from this mornings lesson at MECCA. 🤣
Can't wait to wed them tomorrow!
Who needs analternative when to have this view of the Lederberg forest on hand!

Tonight is the eve of my 2 year anniversary of my first wedding as a celebrant!
And what a way to commemorate, getting all glamoured up and driving to Romsey to do a little legals with a beautiful couple, A and M and thier wonderful parents. 🥰

In honour of this special occasion, I chose to wear the same dress too!

A massive happy anniversary also to Michelle and Andrew! Your trust in me catapulted my dream of new adventures.
Have the best 2nd wedding anniversary for tomorrow, the 9th December!

Also a little shout out to mum for her birthday tomorrow too! What a special date in my calender!

13/11/2023

After doing a little legals wedding on Saturday and my hair being on pointe. (Never happens, and the only other time it has I think was my wedding. Lol)

I made my husband take me out to lunch for our wedding anniversary!

If you've never been to Bangpop at South Wharf, you must!
The food is delicious!
The cocktails devine!

So happy 12th anniversary for Saturday darling husband. It's been a fabulous ride!

Was great reminiscing about our own amazing wedding!

Just a little fact about us, we got engaged on 11/11/2000 then a little couple got in the way, but we finally got married on 11/11/11.
We never forget our dates because it's remembrance day!

What do you like to do on your anniversaries!

08/11/2023

Sooo long time between posts... but you remember how the pies won the game... so too did these lucky 2!

Congratulations to Jayden and Shania.

The sun was out and your day was just perfect.
We got the vows in just in time for the first kick!

Even if you did spoil my mark here Jarden! It was a magnificent wedding in a beautiful location!

For some people, there will be a footy game to watch.
For the luckiest people there will be a wedding!

Hopefully the Pies win and make it the ultimate wedding day dreams come true!

Can't wait to officiate a long awaited and beautiful wedding today!

To our lucky groom, I promise we will be all married up before the first bounce!

Go Pies!

I am loving the secret weddings... last nights was small affair with family only at the yummy Meat and Wine Co, Southbank.

Thank you Mikayla and Scott for entrusting me with your secret.

Gorgeous venue for a gorgeous couple!

An intimate and relaxed ceremony for the sweetest pair! Reannon and Shaun.

“It was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together… and I knew it.

I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home… only to no home I’d ever known…

I was just taking her hand to help her out of a car and I knew. It was like… magic.”

An amazing night on Saturday celebrating Carmela and Frank.

One thing I've learned with 5 generations coming together to celebrate thier vow renewal for thier 65 years wedding anniversary. Go with the flow because Italians are loud!
It was an honour and a privilege to share the evening with your family.

Congratulations on 65 years of marriage! In Franks words... it's better than jail. 🤣

I have been to all of Toadies weddings.
How many did you get to "attend"?
Think I knew I was meant to be a celebrant when I tuned into all the neighbours episodes over the years to watch all the weddings.
Sadly though no more Toadfish weddings. 😥

One of the reasons I became a celebrant.
Being a celebrant was a dream, a goal, an aspiration.

I love this kid! He was at our wedding. A key player!

And now 11 years after this photo he is one of my biggest cheerleaders.
My littlest baby is 13 today!

Thank you bubba for always letting me follow my dreams.

I hope I am an inspiration to you always.

Happy teenager birthday!

Love you forever more always eternity until you turn into a bird

Today we remember those who are gone and thank those who are here.

We be grateful for those who serve/ served, bravely and selflessly.

We reflect on the sacrifices made by these individuals, and the choices they’ve made to help, support and protect others.

Lest we forget.

Oh I do love a laptop...
Working hard and relaxing hard.

Had to take advantage of no weddings and no sport and head out.

Writing ceremonies and catching fish all at once.

What a whirlwind weekend.
Enjoyed the most amazing wedding on Saturday afternoon.
Had the absolute best time creating the ceremony with these 2 wonders.
Thier love is just so true and so so so special.

Then a quick dash off in the heels to go onto mumma duties to watch my son in his first charter representative team competing in the state championships.

And they won!

What a winning weekend all round I say!

09/04/2022

Proud mumma moment coming up.

This afternoon I am marrying an amazing couple that I just couldn't say no to!
Sadly though it clashed with my sons baseball tournament.

Good thing I love em.

Yay! This sweet Australian ceremony was just perfect!

The groom kept telling me they would be the most boring wedding yet... uhm think not!

Our couple had a magnificent whole town show up, Thai ceremony in 2019 and then you know. Cough cough. Evil covid!

On the weekend we were able to finally solemnise thier union on Australian soil!

With just a few guests of family only, we had the most intimate special ceremony.

Whilst raising a glass to toast... an even more amazing announcement was made!

Can you guess? The brides glass was non-alcoholic!
So exciting!

Congrats Sherry and Hoerdur on your wedding but more excitedly you new arrival at the end of 2022!

Oh and you weren't boring at all!

27/03/2022

When I'm not conducting ceremonies, I'm usually following around one of my 2 boys for baseball.
Thought I'd share a proud mumma moment today.
