STUNNING SPOT, INSPIRATIONAL COUPLE

A really lovely couple who only had a very small wedding 14 years ago always intended to have a really special ceremony and reception when they could afford it. Friday was the day! It was the happiest occasion imaginable...so much love, laughter and smiles...beautiful children, a stunning 'bride', a handsome 'groom' and immaculate bridal party...with a ceremony overlooking the ocean. The guest register was a special book I created for them tracing their 14 years together. And did everyone enjoy it? You bet. The couple have just emailed me to say, "We both just wanted to thank you again for the amazing job you did with the ceremony and the book. Everything was perfect."  Thank you guys, I enjoyed every single second with you.

Not only do I adore helping create ideal ceremonies for people - I just love being there with them on the day. And when I receive feedback like this, understandably I feel ecstatic! 
"We were so honoured with your presence, expertise and absolute true passion for what you do...we thank you for the amazing ceremony… really!  It exceeded my romantic imagination, which is huge!  Everyone commented and complemented on the amazing delivery and structure of the event, how unique it was... you have a niche in the market.”

A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME...

Throughout history roses have held great significance. Monks tended rose gardens in the Middle Ages...there are references to roses in the bible and of course Shakespeare's immortal words were, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." 

So no wonder some couples chose to include a rose ceremony at their wedding. Red roses stand for sacrifice and love. White roses represents pure spiritual love. A single white rose represents forgiveness and white roses in a bridal bouquet signify a holy union.Twelve roses is considered a complete cycle and therefore represents true love... while nine stand for eternal love. At weddings, engagements and renewal ceremonies it's a lovely idea for the couple to present each other with a rose - either white or red - as a symbol of their love.

INVOLVE YOUR GUESTS...

A lovely idea at a Renewal of Vows ceremony is to ask each guest to bring a candle and to write a one line wish for the couple's future. Then, during the ceremony, each guest lights their candle and reads out their wish...Then the couple can light a candle each and make their recommitment vows. If it's an evening ceremony all the flickering candles makes a dramatic backdrop for the rest of the ceremony.

It may be a special wedding anniversary or perhaps you've gone through a particularly difficult time together and are now out the other end. Or maybe you just want to announce your deepening love for your partner. A vow renewal is a very special way of celebrating and cementing a wonderful relationship.
