These two stunning Humans (Shona + Richard), were such a fun couple to work with. Absolutely loved how they got ‘hitched’, and then went on to party like Rockstars! What an epic way to celebrate love and life together xoxo

Last Saturday I was invited to officiate the wedding ceremony for two wonderful Humans - Richard and Shona. At their request, we dispensed with most of the warm n’ fuzzies I’d often infuse into a ceremony, making it one of the quickest weddings I’ve seen and done. That said, it was still beautiful, jam-packed with love, and witnessed by their closet Family, Friends, and nearly 15,000 other party-goers!
This is Richard + Shona’s story xoxo

Photos are a beautiful reminder of a moment in time infused with a collection of distilled emotions. Thanks Mike (Mike Limmer Photography), for sending through a couple of stunning images of Paula + Toby, two gorgeous Humans I had the privilege of officiating a ceremony for late December of last year.

I was sooo very privileged to share Toby + Paula’s day as their officiating Celebrant yesterday. Hosted at the undeniably beautiful Ataahua Garden Venue, Sun-soaked Sky, this gorgeous backdrop set the scene for a spectacle of love, laughter, an Honour Guard, and so many other delicious segways.
