Stay safe, people, and enjoy the festive season. I was going to add my favourite Christmas song of all time to this post.... Hint, I'm an 80's chick, and back in the day, I rocked the "choose life" t-shirt complete with shoulder pads. Now I'm just choosing life because my better half, I think, was contemplating something rather drastic if he heard that song just one more time....and it is technically a breakup song. So....
(But I really do love it.) Have you guessed the song???

It IS the beginning of a love story. Out at the beautiful Clydepark Vineyard to discuss all things wedding with my lovelies, Rachael Cassar and Jason.
Gorgeous venue, delicious lunch stunning views, and fun vibes. Oh, and a psychic entertainer who automatically started singing Rachael and Jason's walk in song while we were discussing timing!!!

The calm before .....
Love that quiet time before the ceremony when you're set up waiting for everyone to arrive. Anticipation and butterflies. Every. Time.
Two quiet and legals only this Saturday afternoon.

Any time, any day, any where, any how. Because, it's about you, and what you envision for the beginning of your ever after tale and life. That's why I L.O.V.E it! Weddings by design. And the designs are so spectacularly, diversely and uniquely amazing. Today's wedding was for the beautiful and giggle-addicted Amanat and Sukhraj. Congratulations!!

Set amongst the beauty, elegance, and romance of yesteryear. Family and friends witnessed the lovely Leno, and Imma tie their forever knot. Surrounded by love and with the echos of the hundreds that came before them, seeking a lifetime of joy and togetherness, Leno and Imma were able to see their dream wedding become a reality.
Congratulations, my lovelies!

For someone whose work is reliant on the written word, I'm sometimes speechless when I get feedback like this. Words seem to exit my brain, and melt into a pile of goo until all I'm left with is an emotional ball in my throat and a profound gratitude that I was chosen and entrusted with your story. Thank you, Tim and Briony, you are so very welcome. ❤️❤️

Love on show today during this beautiful garden wedding. This family encapsulated strength and a soul deep connection that was absolutely breathtaking.
Tim and Briony exchanged their vows of forever today amidst laughter and emotional tears. Their vows of forever coming from that place, deep inside, where love is born, allowed to grow and deepen with each look, word, and touch. It was simply stunning.

Bec & Paul. You're welcome. Truly ❤️

"From the moment I met Carmel, I knew our wedding day was destined for magic. Her warm smile and genuine curiosity about our love story put me at ease. Carmels ability to blend natural elements with heartfelt moments made our ceremony truly unforgettable.

Throughout the weeks leading up to our big day, Carmel guided us with grace. She helped us craft personalized vows that echoed our journey—a harmonious blend of laughter, tears, and shared dreams.

On our wedding day, Carmels presence was like a gentle breeze through the leaves. Her words danced, weaving love and laughter into the air. Our guests were captivated, and many commented on how unique and heartfelt our ceremony felt. Carmels dedication to making our day special was evident in every moment.

Carmel isn’t just a celebrant; she’s a storyteller, a guardian of love, and a master of ceremonies. If you’re seeking someone to infuse your wedding with magic, look no further. Carmel is the artist who paints love across the canvas of your hearts."

Many thanks, Bec and Paul

TURDUCKEN SURPRISE WEDDING
Yep, that's right, a surprise, within a surprise, within a surprise!!
The gorgeous Bec and Paul married today much to the surprise of their guests, who believed they were there to surprise Paul and celebrate his 50th birthday. And it was a surprise. The blindfolded groom thought he was there to celebrate his wedding with just his bride and the kids, in a surprise location. Have I lost anyone? No? Good! Because the surprises kept on coming, Pauls parents flying in to surprise him, being one other surprise. The last surprise, the most emotional and beautiful speech from Bec's daughter, had us all in tears. See, TURDUCKEN. The beautiful speech at the end is simply the gravy on top of all that deliciousness. Special Note: Notice the cake! Wedding/fiftieth/ninja turtle (there is a cheeky ninja turtle escaping from the bottom)...EPIC

100 years of life
At 56 , I don't often meet people twice... or almost twice my age. Math was never my thing!
But I met the sweetest 100 year old lady today. I'll say that again because it's worth repeating. 100 years old and one of the witnesses at today's wedding. This delightful lady who was simply called Nan was absolutely adorable. She was so happy to sign on the dotted line for her nephew....I'm guessing great, nephew. She repeatedly expressed how lucky she had been in life and proudly carried a picture of herself at her 100th birthday party. I want to be her when I grow up!!
Congratulations, K and D.... you may very well have quite a few years together if genes play their role in your life
