Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Creighton on their marriage yesterday on 14.6.25. Lots of love, joy, and laughter surrounded the couple as they pledged their life together on a perfect winter's afternoon. The presence of their children in the bridal party made the day. It will be a treasured memory for all their family and friends. Thank you for choosing me as your celebrant. It was a real honour.

May all your dreams come true, Sophie & Jarrod. ❤️🥂❤️ xox

The moments before a wedding ceremony are filled with an air of excitement. I arrive very early to set up, sound check and meet and greet the guests, the other people involved in helping to create the magic, and most importantly catching up with the groomsmen and calming the nerves.

Here is a taste of yesterday's prewedding prep for Jarrod & Sophie. ❤️❤️

Five Star Google Review.

Nothing can make me prouder when I've made a couple's day just how they wanted it. Thank you Kate & Tom for your amazing review. It was my pleasure and an honour for a most special couple. May all your dreams come true. Much love and friendship, Gemma ❤️🥂❤️ xox

"We had the pleasure of seeing Gemma as a celebrant at two of our friend's wedding. We were impressed by her warmth and professionalism and it was clear to us that we would love Gemma to be our wedding celebrant too.

Gemma delivered a high quality ceremony, paying lots of attention to the small details of our relationship story to make the ceremony just as we wanted it to be.
Gemma’s biggest advantage is that she can adjust herself to the style you're asking for.
She served a formal ceremony for our friends and a light, funny one for us as we requested.

Gemma had a couple of meetings with us to ensure that every word and action throughout the ceremony was as we wanted. We wanted to personalise our ceremony and add some of our own traditions, and Gemma learned all about them beforehand to deliver an amazing ceremony.

Also, it suddenly started raining on our wedding day, and the best part was that Gemma knew what to do and say to make sure the crowd was comfortable and enjoyed the ceremony.

Gemma took into account all our concerns, and guided us through everything so we could easily tick the ceremony off our list, knowing Gemma was looking after it. We fully enjoyed an amazing and intimate ceremony on the day. Gemma will always be a bright memory of our wedding day.

We cannot recommend Gemma enough!

Yesterday's marriage of Tom & Kate was nothing short of magical! Kate's Ukrainian/Israeli heritage was honoured with her father placing a rushnyk down for the bride and groom to stand on. This is a Ukrainian tradition symbolising purity and hope that the newly weds will never face poverty or hard times.

The couple said their heartfelt wedding vows to each other. The ceremony was finished off with a "breaking of the glass" - Mazel-Tov in honour of Kate's Israeli heritage. Her mum brought up the glass, and the couple crushed the glass - "as this glass shatters, so may our marriage never break".

The rain loomed low and threatened to dampen, but we were very lucky with only a few sprinkles from the heavens to bless the union.

Congratulations, dear Tom & Kate, may you always be as happy and in love as you were on your wedding day. 2.5.25. Love you lots. ❤️🥂❤️ xox

Today, I was privileged to officiate a funeral service for a wonderful man gone far too soon. The service was at Forest Lawn Memorial Park. Cardinal Funerals looked after the arrangements with care, kindness, and compassion.

Out and about on our 39th wedding anniversary.
❤️🍾❤️

There's nothing like a newly sewn cotton dress on a hot day. This dress is the "Pop Over Dress" from "Gertie Sews Jiffy Dresses" book. All very easy patterns but there was a minor problem when I had cut the two backs or two fronts the same, hence the two-tone effect. I added the ric rac as a final touch. Without a belt this dress looks like a tent. I love it when I make a mistake in sewing; the surprise element of how a garment will look in the end is fun!

Yesterday, a heartfelt "celebration of life" was held for a lovely lady gone too soon. This beautiful soul had many interests, and one in particular was butterflies. She collected butterfly crockery, ornaments, jewellery, clothing, and anything butterfly related. And so her family honoured her with the service theme of butterflys. The final tribute was out on the lawn where we had a "butterfly release" to guide her spirit. One little butterfly delighted in fluttering around for quite some time and even hitched a ride in a bouquet to the wake at the nearby cafe.

It was a privilege to officiate this service and to help in some small way the grief the family was experiencing.
too soon

Review on Gem Celebrancy page from my son and his bride....

"Wow what a celebrant!

Gemma's ability to be a celebrant is only second to her ability to being my lovely mum. Gemma is professional, charming, funny, and will cater to your wedding in every way she can. Mum will make sure you have the best day of your life just like she did for my beautiful wife Michelle and I.

I can say without any familial bias that Gemma is the best mum out there and the best marriage celebrant. Please don't hesitate to give her a call for any enquiries. If you don't end up hiring mum after the phone call you will at the very least end up with a new friend.

From both Michelle and I we love you very much. 110% recommend 6 stars 12/10."
**************************************

Oh thank you so much my wonderful handsome son Dominic and his most beautiful bride my new daughter-in-law Michelle for your awesome words of gratitude and encouragement. Your wedding day was one of the most joyful, amazing and happiest day's of mine and your father's life to date. You both made us incredibly proud and we couldn't be happier for you both as you walk through life together as best friends, lovers, soulmates and husband and wife. Son you are most definitely a chip off the old block and we can't wait to be along for the ride with you both to see where the twists and turns of life take you. We love you more than you could ever know. May you be always blessed. ❤️❤️xox

Wishing all of my bride's, groom's and virtual sewing buddies and everyone else a merry Christmas and a healthy, happy and prosperous 2025.

I'm twirling in my self-drafted circle skirt with appliqued holly leaves and berries. The skirt was made several years ago, and January of this year I added the applique and have waited all year to give it a whirl/twirl. 🎄🎁✨️🎊🍹🍾♥️

Last week we laid to rest a beautiful young lady, Princess Jaya. During her short life, she taught all who came into her life many lessons. Jaya was not expected to live much past a few weeks old as a newborn. She defied the odds and blessed all who knew her with 23 years, 7 months and 5 days on this earth.

Rest in peace beautiful soul. You are in our hearts forever Princess Jaya.

I thank the family for trusting me with the honour of officiating her final farewell.

A few more snap shots from the Ireland leg of this trip. Cobh was the last port passengers were collected on The Titanic before the fateful disaster in 1912 when the ship sunk. Cobh is reported to be one of the top 25 European cities to visit. My third time visiting Cobh.
