Wellington wedding day! 💕💍

Not only is Sunday Spanish school essential for my pair to make sure they don't lose their Spanish.

It is my wedmin time (wedding admin).

A full 2 hours child-free meaning zero, yes, not one single interruption or little person yelling "mummyyyyyyyyyy" when I can sit and write scripts and draft ceremony outlines and catch up on emails.

Bliss! 🤎

Flashback to last Saturday's amazing outdoor ceremony for Sinead and Dane at Fotheringhay Castle Farm!

The ceremony, held beside the river with guests seated on straw bales, embraced the perfect boho vibes. The ceremony table? A rustic tree stump, of course. 🌳✨

From Dane's grand entrance via canoe with his best man and dog Rio to sharing shots of fine Rioja, this ceremony was an absolute blast.🛶🍷

Sinead and Dane shared heartfelt personal vows, and the uber-talented acoustic duo provided incredible music throughout. 🎼🎻

It was such an absolute pleasure to be a part of this truly memorable ceremony!
💍🥂💕

Note: I failed miserably to take many photos before the ceremony.
I am looking forward to seeing the ones that Emilie May .photo took and of course, the video footage of the canoe!

When planning your ceremony, you'll want to sidestep certain missteps to ensure a meaningful celebration. Things to avoid include:

✨ Having an amateur celebrant who lacks experience and may make errors.
✨ Opting for a generic, cookie-cutter ceremony that feels impersonal.
✨ Letting party planning overshadow the significance of the ritual itself.
✨ Working with a celebrant you don't vibe with since you'll collaborate closely.
✨ Other people’s opinions
✨ Rules
✨ Sky high heels
✨ Themes

The ceremony kicks off your new chapter - make it extraordinary! Carefully choose your celebrant and fully invest time into crafting a ritual that truly celebrates your authentic love story. 💕

Would you like some help planning a ceremony as unique as your love? Let's chat!

I'm feeling so nostalgic looking back on Erin and Brodie's gorgeous micro wedding ceremony at .

This lovely couple opted for an intimate micro wedding, surrounded by their very nearest and dearest.

We focused on what mattered most - celebrating their commitment with a thoroughly gorgeous ceremony witnessed only by a handful of guests. . The tranquil venue allowed their love to take centre stage. This pared-back approach meant we could craft a bespoke experience as distinctive as the bride and groom themselves.

Erin and Brodie's micro wedding proves you don't need an elaborate affair to have a memorable, moving celebration. Their ceremony overflowed with joy and love. 💖

If an intimate micro wedding resonates with you, I'd be honoured to bring your vision to life. Let's chat!

★★★★★ "Gayle is amazing. She helped us have the ceremony and wedding that encapsulated not just us as a couple but our family. When I say it was fate that we met Gayle I am not exaggerating. She overheard my husband and boys speaking Spanish at a wedding fayre, we nearly didn't make it to,...

Handfasting is an ancient Celtic ritual representing the joining of two lives. This unity ceremony holds rich meaning for couples today. 👩‍❤️‍👨

Typically done by loosely tying hands with a ceremonial cord, sash or fabric, handfasting symbolises the eternal bond and commitment being made.

This visually beautiful ritual can be incorporated in many ways during the ceremony. Couples can choose materials with personal significance to make it even more meaningful.

Handfasting provides a memorable way to honour heritage and culture while cementing your partnership. The imagery powerfully captures the significance of the promises being exchanged.

I hope this explains a tiny bit more about this treasured unity ritual for couples. Feel free to reach out any time!

While some wedding customs carry significance for couples, don't include anything just because it's expected. This is your special day - honour your love by shaping it as you wish! ❤️

Whether you want to reimagine certain rituals or forego conventions completely, the choice is yours. Stay true to yourself and design a ceremony that's distinctly your own.

I hope these thoughts inspire you to boldly craft a wedding that defies expectations. This is your love story to cherish in your own special way! 🥂

An "unplugged" ceremony powerfully connects all guests to the sacredness of the moment by requesting phones and cameras be put away. This thoughtful policy allows everyone to be fully present to deeply engage with each ceremony element. When devices are set aside, guests can fully savour the joy of the couple's love being celebrated without peering through a screen or worrying about capturing the perfect photo.📵

Though guests can still take photos at the reception, this phone-free ceremony bubble creates space for you to witness your love being celebrated. 📷

Unplugged ceremonies speak to the desire for guests to be engaged and for couples to share an undistracted intimate moment as they unite officially.

I hope this explains the significance of unplugged ceremonies. Wishing you a meaningful wedding planning journey! ❤️

I'm looking back on the beautiful Emily and Jamie's 2022 wedding in Marbella, and swooning over Emily's dress - that bow detail is everything! 😍

Emily was ahead of the curve in embracing the big bow wedding dress trend that's huge for 2024. The extravagant bow cascading down the back of her gown added drama, elegance, and romance. Doesn’t she look beautiful?

I mean, hello who doesn’t love a huge bow?

It was so wonderful to be a part of this amazing couple’s special day! ❤️

A commemorative certificate signed on your wedding day is a special keepsake for cementing your vows.

I like to gift you a commemorative certificate to mark the celebration of your marriage with me. You'll be able to let me know on the questionnaire if you want this to be a part of your ceremony, as in a certificate signing, or whether you want me to give you the signed certificate afterwards.

This symbolic certificate can be completed during the ceremony itself and displayed in your home afterward as a visual reminder of your commitment. 💍

For couples seeking a special touch, commemorative certificates add an extra layer of significance. I'm always eager to share more about unique ceremony elements like these!

Let me know if you have any other questions. Wishing you a joyful wedding planning journey! 🥂

Elopements are not just about running away to say "I do" – they're about capturing the romance and adventure of sharing your vows in a place that holds profound meaning for both of you.

Choosing to elope is an intentional act, a decision to strip away the excess and focus on what truly matters – the love you both share. It's a celebration of your unique journey, a quiet rebellion against conformity, and an embrace of the extraordinary beauty that can be found in simplicity.

Let's work together to create an elopement that perfectly mirrors your free-spirited love and celebrates the journey you're about to embark on as a couple. 💍❤️

A candle-lighting ceremony can be such a beautiful ritual to include in your wedding ceremony. As you each take a taper and together light a central pillar candle, it symbolises the joining of your lives, families, and spirits. 🕯️

This simple yet poignant gesture signifies that your two lights are now one. You can even involve parents/children and have them light taper candles too for family unity.

I would love to incorporate something like this or any other special ritual into your ceremony. Unique touches like this add an extra layer of meaning. Let your creativity shine! 💡
