A few more photos of Emily and Gav and their handfasting. Here are some of the things we did to make their ceremony unique and personal to them.
♥️ I played Pointless 'their song' on my violin as the bride walked down the aisle with her flower girls
♥️ Candles lit for those no longer with us but still very much part of their lives and journey into love
♥️ Carving their initials into wood. This was one of the most romantic parts of their story. Going back to the same special place to carve their initials into a tree so we brought it into their ceremony
♥️ Pet Labrador's also very much part of their journey and lives as ring bearers
♥️ Handfasting using cords they made themselves. Tying the infinity knot
♥️ Ring exchange with personal vows
♥️ Jumping the broom into their new lives together
♥️ Bouquet toss
♥️ So much love
♥️ Every couple has their own special story and every ceremony is designed to capture this and reflect their unique love

Today - Valentines Day ❤️
Celebrating all those that have found the one they love and to the many moments of love we share through life. Love opens our hearts and helps us see the beauty that surrounds us everyday. Love shared is the most beautiful gift ❤️
Here are some quotes that talk to me ❤️
Love is the most universal, the most tremendous and the most mysterious of cosmic forces.
Pierre Teilhard De Chardin
Love has no other desire but to fulfil itself.
But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.
From The Prophet - Kahlil Gibran
I hope you have a beautiful day and get to share some special moments of love with many people you love ❤️

Celebrating Imbolg at the beautiful St Winifreds Well Landmark Trust property near Oswestry in Shropshire.
So many signs of spring around ❤️🌱
Inspiring me to write spring and Imbolg ceremonies. I always love the change in season. Spring and autumn are my favourite times.

This was a while ago but a family I really enjoyed working with. They wanted an alternative funeral with pagan aspects, so we called in the elements Earth, Air, Fire and Water, shared some beautiful readings and ended the service by all placing some sage and rosemary collected from my garden to go with Mo on his journey. I was grateful to receive these words 💚

I was so happy to receive these photos of Christian and Andrew's wedding from last June. I worked with them over six months to create a unique ceremony with readings from their close family, carefully crafted personal vows and their dog Otto bringing in the rings. It was the hottest day of the year but the trees provided a calm sanctuary with a gentle breeze. Such a joy to witness them sharing their vows and their love for one another with their families.

Wonderful Wild Wales, waterfalls and woodlands, landscapes and legends. Yesterday I actually got into the plunge pool at the bottom of Aber Falls with my kids. So exhilarating. We saw a rainbow 🌈 that evening and a stunning sunset. What a beautiful day ❤️

What a beautiful day for my Handfasting at Coppins Farm today. One of the most beautiful locations I've had the privilege of working at. The wind was blowing a d the sun was shining. The crickets were singing as we walked through the woods to the stunning space right by the river ❤️

This time last year I was getting ready to go to the woods in the morning to do a personal ceremony of welcoming a new phase of life for a lady, using the summer solstice as a gateway to welcome a new way of being and phase of life. We created a mandala together as part of the ceremony using flowers we had collected and natural materials collected from nature. Here are some photos of nature inspired altars I have created or from ceremonies and places I have been part of. Making an altar for ceremony is a therapeutic process which brings you into connection and begins the process of getting ready for ceremony. I love to change my personal altar at home to reflect the season, the wheel of the year and nature and I love to create altars with other as part of ceremony. Happy solstice to all. What you celebrate in your life and welcome in as we begin the longest day as we celebrate the light and begin the decent to the darkest part of the year.
Thanks to @thedrumwoman for the beautiful songs and drumming and being part of our spiral dance. I loved seeing all the faces and kisses!! What a way to start our ceremony ❤️❤️

With the equinox this weekend, light and dark balance for just a moment and from this point forwards we will have more light every day than darkness. For me this is a time of hope. I took the video in my garden last year. I love how the bees are flying around. Planting for bees makes me happy and makes my garden feel so alive. My favourite flowers at a wedding are those that reflect place and season, bringing magic to the ceremony. Below are some words of hope from Nikita Gill as we come out of the darkness of winter, into the hope of spring. 🌼🐝🦋❤️
Where home comes from
It comes from heartache
And it grows like the lone sapling
from the ashes of loss.
And it carves its way out
of the heart of tragedy and it’s heavy cost.
And it rises like a soldier thought lost
returning home to his mother.
And it smells like the calm clear sky
following weeks of one storm after another.
And maybe this is why when Pandora
open the box that carried such calamities
which inflicted all of mankind,
gentle hope emerged from it too.
What else helps us
overcome suffering
if not by giving hope
a chance to bloom.
Collecting water from my local natural spring in Newbourne for ceremony. I love to use the power and beauty of nature in my ceremonies. This water is so clear and just keeps bubbling up, feeding into the stream. #natureceremony #naturalspringwater #suffolkcelebrant #outdoorceremony #suffolkwedding #elemental #elementofwater #natureinspired Emily Myers Celebrant
This time two years ago, on the sunrise of my birthday I created my own ceremony with my beautiful friend @thedrumwoman. To let go of what I needed to and to help me find my voice. It was powerful from the start with the magical full moon just setting in the west and the fiery phoenix accompanying me in the sunrise. We walked to the top of the hill in my local town, called the elements, woke the spirits of the place. I wrote on stones to release my fears and used the drum to feel my voice and feel into what I needed to create in my life. A powerful and magical experience which has helped bring me into my life today. Ceremony can be a powerful way to help us let go and to move us forward in our lives at any moment and we can create our own ceremony to move us in our lives. I can help anyone wanting to make change in their lives to create a ceremony to help them let go and to move forwards. New job, new relationship, new home, new venture. Create a ceremony to support you in your life. Now is a really potent time as we head to the equinox where the balance of light tips and from March 21st we will all experience more light than darkness in our daily lives ❤️
