Working for yourself is amazing... but has its drawbacks. When I was a manager in a former life I could set up a re redirect, but not anymore! I only have my cat on the pay roll and she's only useful for office cuddles, her admin skills are yet to surface 🐱

If you're waiting to hear back from me keep an eye out over the next week 🀘

(And yes that is my dog looking mega in an awesome fleece!)

Absolutely gorgeous afternoon meeting lots of loved up couples at the Samlesbury Hall open day today πŸ’

Not only did I get to tell everyone about how awesome their celebrant led wedding ceremony could be but I was also surrounded by some other fabulous suppliers too πŸ₯°

Samlesbury Hall is a truly special venue with 700 years of history! The ceremony space is absolutely breathtaking too ❀️

Yesterday, I had the honour of leading a Celebration of Life ceremony for my friend Jamie – a man who truly knew how to live life to the fullest.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been working on a ceremony that captured Jamie’s big personality and even bigger achievements. And what a life he lived! Despite being registered blind, Jamie seemed to have a habit of collecting adventures and awards like most of us collect takeaway menus.

He was the UK’s first blind tax accountant, trained as a blind skier, trekked to Everest base camp, competed in the Invictus Games, performed at the Birmingham Hippodrome, learned to pilot a hot air balloon, and even became a stand up comedian with me! Honestly, there wasn’t much he didn’t do.

Jamie’s life also had its fair share of fancy invitationsβ€”he was often off to the House of Lords or Buckingham Palace, probably to pick up another award!

It was a privilege to celebrate such a vibrant and inspiring life. Jamie reminded all of us that life is for living, and he did just that.

Hello my lovelies, it's your guardian angel here ready to sprinkle some magic on all of your ceremonies.

Had a fabulous FLYING visit to Blackpool tonight to hang out with the amazing community πŸ†. At least one person there is re thinking their wedding plans now that I've told them all about a ceremony 🀘

How gorgeous is this testimonial the lovely Mrs S left for me today πŸ’•

It was a real honour to create and lead a beautiful celebration of life ceremony for her late husband. It was even more meaningful as he was a fellow veteran and we both started our military careers serving in the Royal Signals 🫑

Every year for the past decade I've re posted this on my personal page πŸ™Œ

So I thought I'd share it here as a flash back to my previous life in uniform! The photo was taken at the Millies Awards ceremony where the phenomenal Louise won an award as the founder of the fantastic charity

Also, well, erm... ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

To the untrained eye it might look like I'm having a lazy Sunday morning today.

I mean yes, I am chilling on my sofa in my comfies as my husband delivers me fresh cups of coffee every half hour BUT I'm actually watching 'Big Gay Wedding With Tom Allen' so I'm actually, technically 'working' πŸ‘Œ

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Great programme BTW. Not only is Tom organising a wedding for his friends but it also covers the incredible changes in the past 30 years in the LGBTQ landscape regarding marriage πŸ™Œ

Meet my new assistant!

Princess Penelope Pussycat loves to make a nuisance of herself when I'm trying to work so I thought I'd get her on the pay roll - although I've been clear that payment is purely in the form of licky lick treats!

I think she'll be purr-fect and p-awesome (sorry I'll stop now 🀣)

Happy Friday everyone- the weekend has landed!

Yesterday I attended my local remembrance parade with my family, my second year attending as a veteran.

Today, on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month I will be taking a further moment to remember the fallen.

We will remember 🫑

The clocks have gone back today here in the UK so we all have an extra hour to fill.

Here's my suggestion of what to do with that extra 60 minutes. Why not arrange to meet your friends / wedding guests for a lovely autumn walk and stop off for some confetti throwing practise?

Get them all well trained before your big day so your photographer can get that perfect confetti shot! πŸ‚ 🍁 πŸ˜‰

Whatever you decide to do, have an awesome Sunday beautiful humans πŸ’•
