Yesterday I had the first wedding of the season and what an awesome one it was!
Les and Josh after a wicked 20years together finally decided to tie the knot and become Mr And Mrs,
Their ceremony reflected their wants, needs and wishes with some light-hearted humour, a couple of tears, and giving the groom a hard time or two, ment a good time was had by all!
I received this beautiful gift as a thank you, as it was handed to me they said, "we know you'll love the mug as it's you to a t" well bu**er me days! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!
Thank you for trusting in me with your special day 🥰 absolutely enjoyed every minute.
Enjoy the wedded bliss!

So so Proud of Jack this weekend, scored the first try of the tournament and then recieved the sportsmanship award, fair to say he has probably played the best he ever has this weekend, along with his awesome mates giving it their all,
Well done to William for also getting the MVP award yesterday, sadly had to run away today for my triathlon tomorrow and Summers dance exam.
So awesome to see the positive encouragement
Keep playing hard boys! Proud is an understatement.

Absolutely stoked to have been nominated again this year for two categories for the Wedding Industry Awards New Zealand (Celebrant and Celebrant/MC)
I just wanted to say thank you to the lovely people who nominated me, super humbled, however due to the need to be present to receive an award and the awards night is in Queenstown and I have weddings already booked for that weekend I cannot continue with the nomination.
But again thank you my awesome past, present and future couples!!!!!!! You all rock !

Much love and aroha to my F45 family, Whanau

Where am I when I'm not at work you may ask? Well 9 times out of 10 I am on the sidelines encouraging my children with their sports, super proud of this wee kid, rocking x3 golds x1 silver x2 bronze and a 4th in last Sundays Hawkes bay Sundevils swim competition.
For me personally it's extremely important for a healthy work/life balance, your kids are only small once, you can't turn back the clock and do it all again so I take every opportunity I can to be my kids biggest supporter 🥰🥰🥰
