THANKYOU. THANKYOU. THANKYOU.

Last week I delivered my 53rd and final ceremony of the 2024 wedding season and yesterday I emailed out the last of the keepsake scripts to my incredible couples.

Today, as I have sat here scrolling through my camera roll, whilst reflecting on what an unreal season it has been, I am not ashamed to say that I have shed a grateful, happy tear and smiled so hard that my face hurts.

To be trusted with creating the ceremony, and in some cases singing too, for the biggest day in people's lives is such an honour, joy and privilege. To be part of that love, connection, happiness and energy fills my soul more than any other job I have ever done.

Celebrancy and music aren't just work to me, they are my passions and my vocations and I cannot thank you enough for giving me the opportunity to do something as a career that is so very rewarding.

So, to every one of the 106 people I have met and created a ceremony for this year THANKYOU.

To the guests who have brought the smiles, cheers and total engagement THANKYOU.

To all the suppliers and venues who have recommended me, worked with me and never stop bringing the vibes on the big day THANKYOU.

To who gave me the kick in backside I needed 5 years ago to begin work as a celebrant then trusted me to take over last year. THANKYOU.

To every person who has booked me in the past, left reviews and recommendations and booked me for the future THANKYOU.

You have all made this woman incredibly happy and grateful. Here's to 2025 and beyond!!!

Woke up to these photos and this lovely message today...

"Thank you so much for the beautiful job you did on Saturday. Everyone was singing your praises saying how wonderful you were. It was such a lovely ceremony and we’re so grateful for all your hard work xx"

Thank YOU Lauren and Jonny for having me as your celebrant and taking the time to share these photos and that message. Such a lovely couple who didn't let the shower of rain bother them and whose love and connection shone brighter than any sun. 💛❤️

Massive thanks to of for taking and sending these lovely portraits - love that there are a couple of 'angels' with me in the full length one ❤️

I really don't enjoy posing for photos, would much rather have spontaneous images where I don't know I am being photographed, but Clarissa has a way of putting you at ease and getting nice natural looking results. Thankyou. X###

Almost one month ago, Grace and Chris surprised their friends in the most EPIC manner!

They told them they were coming to Ibiza from Canada for a combined bachelor and bachelorette party, when actually they were making heartfelt vows they wrote themselves before saying 'I do'. ❤️

It was a beautiful love and laughter filled ceremony in the grounds of their holiday villa and the joy and excitement were truly palpable.

I absolutely loved getting to play a part in such a fantastic surprise! Here's to you Chris and Grace - thanks for getting me involved 💗

I wrote this a few weeks ago, on a 'day off' not long before I turned 43. It's a work in progress, as we all are. ❤️

Hello! I’m 43. My body is not what it used to be
 I’ve a muffin top and my arse is saggy.

I’ve got wrinkles around my eyes 
There’s no longer a gap between my thighs.

I’ve created 3 babies and I've birthed 2,
I know that’s familiar to many of you

I’ve cellulite, stretch marks and wobbly bits
And gravity hasn’t been kind to my t**s

My hair sparkles with silver strands 
I’ve got flecks of sunshine on the backs of my hands

In some ways I’m not like I used to be
But in others each day I’m more and more me

Yeah, I’m aging like the finest wine
Maturing gracefully and feeling fine

 I’m learning, loving and growing more
At peace with myself and not at war

I value connections and warm, open hearts
My joy and confidence are off the charts

So, I won’t hide a wrinkle or erase a line
Because aging is a real privilege of mine

See, some don’t live long enough to get this old
So let’s live free, unfettered and bold!

 Be less preoccupied with looking like kids
And celebrate life as the blessing it is.

Love those wrinkles. Embrace that grey hair. 
Because before we know it, none of it will be there

Be grateful for every day you’re alive
And really LIVE, don’t just survive.

Happy Birthday to this incredible human. 44 trips around the sun, and I have had the good fortune to be with him for almost 28 of them.

He is the best Dad, husband, host, cook and boat mechanic ever. Kind, loving, affectionate, supportive, our biggest cheerleader and our rock. The girls and I don't know what we would do without him.

He and I have had so many adventures together, from getting rescued by coastguards on our first sailing trip as teens, to camping, backpacking and road tripping our way around a good chunk of the globe on holidays before coming through France to Ibiza on our little boat home and deciding not to leave. Life is for living and we have lived it well so far!

The biggest adventure yet has been parenthood and I am thankful every day that we have created two such lovely children full of fun, adventure and love just like their Daddy.

Here's to you many more adventures together Mikey, my first, my last, my everything. ❤️❤️

Absolutely loved getting this little gem of a photo in my inbox! Real laughter in photos always makes me smile, but this particular one made me laugh aloud because of the back story ...

and had done their legals a little while before the Ibiza wedding and when I asked Matt pre ceremony if he and his best man had the rings he realised that:
A) He was already wearing his.
B)He hadn't taken it off since the legals.
C) It was stuck.

Cue soaks in ice to reduce heat swelling, and a lot of pulling and wriggling by his best man - who very nearly removed the whole finger - and it was off. The question now though was 'Is it going on again?'

The ring exchange always provides light relief as generally fingers swell in the heat and nerves make for shaky hands, but this one was comedy gold as Jade first tried to slide the ring on, then firmly push it, then got both hands involved before Matty helped out too. That ring's going nowhere soon! 😅

Massive congratulations Mr and Mrs Bailey, it was an absolute joy to be your celebrant. Such a fun, funny and gorgeous couple in every way. ❤️❤️

HOW I LOVED WORKING WITH MR AND MRS CLARK 💞

Connected, warm, open, honest, down to earth, full of fun and beautiful inside and out.

I was their celebrant & their parasol holder (swipe!) and I loved every second! They could not take their eyes off each other, they listened intently to every word of the ceremony and they delivered their vows with so much raw emotion that there was not a dry eye in the house.

Honestly one of the most genuine, warm and real ceremonies I have had the privilege to be part of. 💞

Mr and Mrs Oakley. What an absolute dream. I first met them a year ago at their gorgeous wedding venue , and I instantly loved them. Their connection, their energy, their enthusiasm, lust for life and the fact that THEY DON'T HAVE INSTA!!

They had 10 carefully selected and very important guests at their ceremony and every single one of those guests played a part. Many sent me stories, anecdotes or observations to include in the ceremony. Two read pieces they chose themselves, especially for the happy couple. Others were bridesmaids, best men or ring bearer and every one of them made a vow to make memories and always support our happy couple.

This was a truly magical day for truly magical people with a type of love so deep, rare and true that it almost feels wrong to share it on social media. I know you won't see this SoCal, but thank you for choosing me as your celebrant. It was an honour and a privilege from start to finish.

The smiles of two people who just said I do. ❤️❤️

I absolutely love my job. The emotions, the joy, the love, the unity - it's pure magic to be involved in the biggest days of couples lives.

And when the couples are like Erin and Gerard here and just radiate pure happiness and connection from first contact to walking out of the ceremony, it's even more special.

Here's to you Mr and Mrs McGillivray ✨

Trish & Jim. 🩷💜

What a beautiful morning elopement this was. Just them, their son and their best friends on a beach the morning after a storm.

We had laughter, smiles, tears and absolute lashings of love as they made their vows by the sea. We even had a slice of rainbow appear in the sky as they kissed. So intimate, so pure and so beautiful ❤️

Mr and Mrs Gallagher. 10/7/24. ❤️💙

What a gorgeous wedding this was.

The relaxed bohemian beach side vibes at were the perfect setting for these two laid back, happy, warm and loving souls.

We had a heartfelt and funny reading from Robyn's sister, I used input from the two of them and their friends and family to create The Rhyme of Robyn and David as a light, upbeat way to tell their tale so far, there was a nod to their Scottish heritage with a tartan handfasting and the applause and cheers as they kissed and literally tied the knot exemplified just how much everyone was there for them.

Absolutely beautiful, just like these two. Here's to you Mr and Mrs Gallagher!

Early morning post storm beach Elopement ❤️❤️❤️

This ceremony yesterday was so special. After being unsure whether or not to go ahead with the dodgy weather, Trish and Jim went for it and their Cala Tarida elopement was truly beautiful.

The waves created a lovely soundscape and gorgeous backdrop, the clouds cleared just enough to give us soft romantic light and a slice of rainbow appeared in the sky as they kissed. Couldn't have asked for more.

Thanks for trusting me with your ceremony and for sharing these intimate moments. Here's to you Trish and Jim. ###Xx

Today, I woke up to this gorgeous video and review over email:

"From the first contact Carly went out of her way to accommodate a surprise vow renewal during our stay in Ibiza, the meticulous planning and gathering of knowledge was edited expertly to provide us with a bespoke ceremony on the day that will be remembered for years to come, Carly and Rick created an ambience and atmosphere of love and fun throughout the ceremony, the music sets were first class (which everyone in the party danced and smiled to) and we had an amazing day, Thank you, Stuart & Tracy. “

Stuart contacted me in Spring to tell me that he wanted to surprise his wife with music and a vow renewal for their 25th anniversary, which happened to fall when they were holidaying here with 15 of their family earlier this month.

I was so excited to be involved and over emails and a video call Stuart and I planned to play their wedding song as part of surprise pre dinner music, then announce that that was just the start of the surprises....next I led a vow renewal ceremony under a gorgeous olive tree in the garden then Rick and I played for 90 minutes whilst they danced, toasted and celebrated. Unforgettable.

I often experience moments of pure gratitude, love and happiness when I reflect on just how incredible it is to utilise my passions for writing, singing, creating, performing and connecting with people in my work and to be in these environments of love, joy and intimacy so frequently. This was definitely one of those moments and is up there with some of the best work memories I have made so far.

Thank you Mr and Mrs Gray for inviting Rick and I to be part of your celebration of love, life and unity. What a privilege it was to be part of this incredible, intimate event.

17 years ago today we got married, after 10 years together already...a quick bit of maths tells me around 65% of my life so far has been shared with this one. We will be getting out early for good behaviour soon enough. 😅😅 Jokes aside though, I wouldn't have had it any other way - From childhood sweethearts to partners in parenting, adventures and life in general!

We've travelled all over the world together, camped in jungles and deserts, stayed in luxury hotels and mosquito infested beach shacks, driven across countries and continents, climbed mountains, dived oceans, sailed seas, explored cities and civilisations, lived on a boat and brought it through France, relocated to Ibiza on that boat for a bet, made awesome little humans, supported each other through grief, career changes, injuries and accidents (the balance is out of whack on this one) and done it all with no regrets and a hefty dose of humour.

He's my best friend and soulmate and we know each other as well as we know ourselves. He's intelligent, creative, logical, strong in every sense, supportive and fearless. As a Dad to our girls he is absolutely phenomenal. He's also an awesome cook, best marine engineer out there (just ask anyone with a boat he's worked on 😉), patient, nurturing, loving, hilarious and enviably absent from social media (he will be shown this so he can roll his eyes then smile at it, whilst telling me how soppy I am).

We have been each others biggest supporters and sounding boards since the start and work as a team to raise our family and manage life and work whilst still making the most of our time and creating memories with the kids.

We share the same silly sarcastic sense of humour and quick wit, a zest for life, positive outlook and can do attitude and he makes me feel we can take on the world. Nothing is ever out of reach. No dream is too big.

Here's to the next 17 years and beyond and all those adventures and memories still to be had and made. I love you Mr Pea. ♥️♥️

"These are the hands of your best friend, young and strong and full of love for you, that are holding yours on your wedding day, as you promise to love each other today, tomorrow, and forever..."

These two. ♥️♥️ So connected, so in love and there truly was a palpable sense of magic, light and intimacy at their gorgeous minimony by the sea. Just a handful of their favourite people, on their favourite island as they said I do to their one. Beautiful.

A shout out must also go to my musical brother Rick for helping me translate the Blessing of the Hands to Castellano for this ceremony, and for recommending the lovely to join our Celebrant team. After watching this gorgeous wedding she is going to be creating and delivering ceremonies in Castellano for us. ♥️

Connection.

It's so important. Whether it's an unspoken mutual understanding, a look, a touch, a smile, a wave, an exchange of ideas, words, embraces or kisses we all connect with each other in hundreds of ways every day. Human connection is one of the things that makes it feel so good to be alive!

When I am giving a ceremony, I love to see a couple connect with each other and with the words. The hand squeezes, looks, kisses, tears, smiles, laughter and eye contact never fail to make me smile.

And this particular wedding was full of connections. What a couple ♥️♥️
