It's hosing down. We even have a red weather warning!!

It's also school holidays so what a great opportunity to get busy on an 'inside task' and craft some wedding ceremonies for the upcoming wedding season.

Thanks to the lovely couples who have entrusted me with officiating your special day. I am privileged to be your .

Some great ideas in this article. I have noticed a trend for local weddings using beautiful blooms from local gardens in bouquets and table arrangements. What's not to like!

Weddings cause a massive amount of waste. But planning a wedding and making it environmentally friendly can be daunting. You might ask, “Is it more expensive if sustainable?” Or, “Wouldn’t it be easier if I kept to my original plans? No one will notice.”

An eco-friendly wedding doesn’t mean extra work or more money. And deep down inside, none of us want to add to the endless waste.

Going the sustainable route is becoming more common.

More wedding services in New Zealand are starting to cater for the more eco-conscious. We even have celebrants who focus on eco-friendly wedding ceremonies!

I never tire of gazing out and up to the skies and marvelling at the beauty around me. What a treat it was recently to see the aurora borealis with the naked eye.
What magic do you see when gazing skywards?

Family time in Wanaka.

One of the chickens flew back to the NZ nest for a short visit from Perth. So nice to enjoy the outdoors with my whanau.

I originally met Mr S when we both crewed on a week long sailing charter around the Abel Tasman! ⛵🌞🥂

Nelson and Tasman.....enjoying some R & R in familiar haunts.

34 years ago today, I said my own "I do's".
A lot of 'life' has happened since and hopefully a lot more is yet to come too.

Happy anniversary Mr S. Xo
