Kathrine and Andy

I enjoyed being the Celebrant for the loving, intimate wedding of Katherine and Andrew at Gunners Barracks in Mosman. A true love story from meeting online. Katherine’s children, Luke and Sophie were their witnesses for the signing of the marriage certificate.

The Celebration following the ceremony with exquisite flowers, an abundance of food and wine and cracker speeches, was a testament to their commitment, love and true devotion. I really enjoy intimate weddings where the commitment ceremony and celebration become one. 

Robbie and Byron's White Wedding

One of my greatest joys was celebrating this marriage between Robbie and Byron.  They’d been close neighbours, dearest friends for 5 years and I was with them on the journey of their surrogate giving them the child they prayed for.  4 years later their ultimate surprise was twins – 2 bundles of joy – Jet and Blake  - their excited ring bearers ! Godfather Martin proudly said the ceremony was drawn to the light of Robbie and Byron’s commitment to each other and to their shared love of their lives, Blake and Jet. 

Ceremony was held at Rose Bay Marina  followed by dinner and dancing upstairs at the Regatta Restaurant and Robbie and Byron singing a loving duet.  Perfection afternoon – full circle for my dearest friends.

Josephine and Michael Wedding

Josephine and Mikey celebrated their love and marriage in the magnificent Rockpool building, where they met and have shared so many happy times and memories.  It also meant so much to Josephine because as she said :  “It’s my father’s restaurant and it holds a special place in all of our hearts”.

Josephine entered on the arms of her parents,  Adele and Neil Perry looking resplendent in elegant white taffeta to the applause and cheering of their wedding guests. 

Josephine and Mikey met at Rockpool 8 years ago when Josephine had her first crush on Mikey when he was working in the kitchen at Rockpool.  

Their love of food and wine and eating in restaurants here and abroad and the joy they just have spending time together brought them to celebrate their union forever with Mikey’s family travelling from overseas.

Rockpool looked breathtakingly beautiful  with an abundance of gorgeous flowers, music, and as one can imagine divine food and wine with laughter and loving speeches flowing throughout the evening .

Love being a Celebrant !

John and Paul's Boathouse Wedding

I had the pleasure of being Celebrant and emcee for John & Paul’s wonderful wedding and celebration at The Boathouse Rose Bay.   The wedding was held overlooking the water with the Club Sol band entertaining guests while they sipped champagne and ate delicious hors d’oeuvres waiting for our grooms to arrive.  John took us all by surprise when he arrived wearing heart-shaped gold-tinted glasses. Such a joyous love-filled ceremony and celebration! Sumptuous food, wines and champagne listening to the fab sounds of Club Sol with Luke Anthony and Kyle Maguire. The spectacular ‘pear’ wedding cake by Anthea Leonard, @sweetart_official  was a definite hit!

Bianca and Brendan's Wedding and Surprise

Bianca and Brendan’s intimate family wedding was held at the brides’ parents,  Karen and Wolfie’s wonderful home in Vaucluse, Sydney. It was as though one had entered an enchanted garden with the mix of vibrant coloured blooms against the backdrop of the Australian bush. It was breathtakingly beautiful!

The ceremony was held under the Chuppah in a pretty courtyard garden before guests ventured upstairs to a magnificent dining table adorned with rich colourful flowers with a silver gum tree in the bush garden completing the set. 

Delicious wine and food (catered by Totti’s Restaurant);  warm humorous speeches and the love of both families made it even more memorable.   The ‘surprise’ of the day was when the couple cut their wedding cake to discover the gender of their expectant baby. If it was blue sponge it was a boy and pink if it was a girl. The obstetrician and cake designer had collaborated to ensure it was kept a surprise for the loving couple.  It brought much gaiety and laughter from all the guests.

Dad Wolfie was the hero of the day predicting it was a boy!

Friends of the loving couple arrived at the home following the luncheon and there was much fun and laughter into the night.   

Darren and Matthew's Wedding: Love Floating in the Air

Masses of pink and white balloons streaming from the ceiling welcomed guests from Perth, Melbourne, Queensland, and Tasmania for the delightful wedding ceremony of Darren and Matthew in their delightful Surry Hills apartment.

Following the ceremony, guests walked around the corner (each carrying a balloon) to Zahli Restaurant for an all-day wedding feast. It was a fun filled afternoon of wining and dining, singing, dancing and more celebrating. The exotic belly dancer was a great hit as was Matt’s sister, Dell, who composed and sang her song for our happy bridegrooms.

Friends and family expressed so much love and happiness. I love being a Celebrant !
