Meet Rose – A Beautiful Soul and Celebrant Extraordinaire!!!

It’s an absolute joy to introduce Rose, a truly remarkable Celebrant whose warmth, creativity, and authenticity shine in every ceremony she officiates. Over the years, it’s been such a privilege getting to know her, and today, I'm beyond excited to launch the beautiful Rose as the very first feature on our Online Directory for 2025 – what an auspicious way to start the year!

Here’s what Rose has to say:

My ceremonies are like me – natural, authentic, creative, and fun; easy to listen to and impossible to forget. I love crafting stories that spark laughter and happy tears, putting couples at ease, and setting the tone for their perfect day.

My passion for people and their connections stems from my background as a Counsellor and Teacher. These experiences taught me how to build trust, create meaningful relationships, and evoke deep emotions. When I sought a heart-centred career change, a dear friend suggested becoming a Celebrant. Nothing could have prepared me for the immense joy I feel when uniting two souls in love, the tingles I get hearing vows that resonate deeply, or the pride in declaring them legally married.

When I’m not crafting unforgettable ceremonies, you’ll find me enjoying life’s simple pleasures: chatting, dancing, reading, or savouring a G&T by the fire. Fun fact – despite my average swimming skills, I once sailed from Queensland to Tasmania, crossing a rare calm Bass Strait.

Originally from South Africa, I’ve called Melbourne, Tasmania, and now Sale home. I proudly offer my Celebrant services across Gippsland and beyond. Whether you call me Rosemarie or just Rose, I’d be honoured to create a ceremony that’s intimate, grand, and uniquely yours."*

We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Rose to the directory – she’s truly a gem

A Beautiful Message from Robyn at I do I do Gippsland

As Christmas approaches, I want to take a moment to acknowledge that while this time of year is often filled with sparkle and joy for many, I am also aware that it is a time that isn’t always easy for everyone. For some, it brings grief, loneliness, or the reflection of loved ones who are no longer with us. To those of you navigating these moments or any moments, know that you are not alone and that everyone whether we know it or not has a story.

Each year, I share this quote, and once again, I feel it’s such a beautiful and pertinent piece of writing and I am beyond grateful of this quote.

"Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful." – Norman Vincent Peale

Christmas has a way of softening our hearts, reminding us that even in times of sadness or loss, there is still beauty to be found. This year, as I reflect on the incredible privilege of running I do I do Gippsland, I am filled with gratitude. It has been an absolute honour to be part of your journey - whether you’ve visited my business for the first time, returned with new dreams, or trusted me to help bring your beautiful love story and wedding or business vision to life.

To everyone who has walked through my virtual doors and loved onto our new and exciting online business – omg such a beautiful thank you. We have so much planned for 2025 and it is beyond exciting!! From the bottom of my heart, I am deeply grateful for each of you and the opportunity to be an incredible part of your beautiful love stories and exciting business ventures.

May this time bring peace, love, and moments of softness to your hearts. You are all beyond cherished and I look forward to connecting again soon.

With love and gratitude,
Robyn ❤️✨

THE MAGIC OF WEDDING FLOWERS

There’s something undeniably enchanting about wedding flowers. They’re more than just blooms; they tell a story. Each petal carries meaning - roses for love, peonies for prosperity, daisies for purity. The whimsical beauty of florals weaves romance into your day, with colors that inspire emotions, scents that evoke memories, and textures that invite a loving touch. Flowers have a way of speaking to the heart without saying a word.

Omg - I just adore flowers and sometimes I just pop up an image - just because - I love their vibrant hues, their delicate fragrance, and the way they transform every wedding into a dreamscape as well as they can take our breath away with their beauty.

This stunning image, captured by the amazing Donna Lee Photography, showcases just how truly special wedding flowers can be.

💬 Tell us, which flowers are your must-haves for your big day?
