💕 2024 💕
This post is dedicated to my lovely 2024 couples who booked me as their celebrant, master of ceremonies or both. It was such an honour being part of your days, helping to bring some Yorkshire sparkle, fun & charm to the occasion and celebrating your love with your fantastic families and friends 💖 oh, and don’t forget the dogs!! 🐶
I hope you are all enjoying your honeymoon period and looking forward to your first Christmas as newlyweds ✨
Special mention to the fabulous venues in 2024 who have been so warm, welcoming and utterly stunning 😍
And cheers to my @cockleywoodweddings celebrant partner in crime @sarah_garg_civil_celebrant - such an amazing colleague and all round talent - love sharing such an amazing space with you 🌿

Hello 👋🏻 I’m here! 👍🏻
Sorry for the lack of posts recently. Having a newborn is rather distracting! 👶🏻
Looking back over this year and my ‘talking head’ videos so thought I’d do some compilations to finish off the year! ☺️
This is my ‘Hello, I’m here’ compilation 👋🏻🤣
I’m so lucky to have worked at some amazing wedding venues this year ✨
I’m so incredibly grateful to all the venues who recommend me as their celebrant. It means so much to my little business, thank you 🥰
Any other venues who would like to work with an award winning, fun and friendly celebrant, get in touch ❤️

Ahh confetti… How I love you… 💕
Apparently we have the Italians to thank for the tradition of confetti at weddings. Sugared almond sweets ‘confetto’ were thrown at newlyweds symbolising prosperity, fertility and sweetness 🍬
Since then, confetti has taken different forms with rice, paper, grains or flowers being thrown at happy couples 🌾🌸
Most venues now ask couples to provide biodegradable and eco-friendly confetti, and sometimes there are rules on where you can or can’t throw your confetti. Always worth asking your venue coordinator! 👍🏻
I LOVE announcing the confetti after a ceremony! It’s so much fun, makes for fantastic photos/videos, and gets all your guests involved in your celebrations 🎉
If you need advice on confetti or any other wedding traditions, I’m here to help 💕

New member of the @melodydiamondcelebrant team incoming! 🤰🏼
2024 has been a wonderful year for so many reasons:
💕 Amazing couples and fantastic guests
💕 Beautiful weddings in gorgeous locations
💕 My own wedding to my lovely hubby
💕 And now our baby girl coming in a few weeks!
I want to thank all my 2024 couples who have been so supportive and kind throughout my pregnancy, allowing me to bring an ‘extra guest’ along to their weddings! You are all wonderful 🫶🏻
And to my early 2025 couples who have been so lovely and accommodating, meeting me earlier or later than the usual schedule to allow me to time to welcome our baby into the world 🌍
I’m still contactable and want to hear from you, whether that’s past couples with life updates, booked couples with questions or updates or new enquiries looking for a sparkling ceremony ✨ It might just take me a teeny bit longer to reply over the next month or two!

🍂 Sarah & Anthony 🍂
🍁 14/09/2024 🍁
What a day of celebrations at The Hospitium yesterday!
It was extra special for me as I’ve worked there as supervisor for several years so it was great to be there wearing my celebrant hat, working with my friends but also getting treated like a VIP as a supplier 🧡
I’ve been getting to know Sarah and Anthony for quite a while, with meetings in our local pub as we only live half a mile away. They are such a fun, kind and quirky couple. It was a real pleasure being their wedding celebrant and master of ceremonies for the whole day.
Their ceremony included:
Their love story 🧡
A beautiful reading and poem by a friend 📜
A very talented singer accompanied by strings 🎻
Traditional vows 🫶🏻
Bride and groom drawings on their certificate 🖌️
Lots of love and laughs 🧡

A ring warming 💍
A special certificate with paw print witness box 🐾
A sand unity ceremony ✨
The couples love story 😍
I love spending the full day at a wedding as it means I get to know the guests too. And what a lovely bunch they were! 🥰
