24.01.2022 2020 ends for me flying back from a beautiful and intimate wedding in Townsville. Now I know some celebrants love to say how many weddings they’ve performed, how many years they’ve been a celebrant, but honestly I treat my career the same way I do when I’m on stage: you’re only as good as your last gig. I love what I do. I never say no to a new venture or opportunity, and I throw away hesitation at the prospect of learning something new. This is what I hope I’ve brought to the 49 couples I’ve helped this year, the funerals I was privileged enough to sing for and those I was honoured to conduct, and the dozens of incredible individuals I’ve met along the way. 2020 still found a lot to be grateful for #gratitude #love #friendship #couples #marriage #wedding #weddingdress #weddingphotography #weddinginspiration

20.01.2022 Currently sitting in Townsville Airport after Jetstar failed to notify me they’d cancelled my flight home. BUT I was able to get a flight through Qantas a little later. In the meantime I can happy myself with working on timelines for my MC gigs, finalising some paperwork, and chatting to my beautiful wife in between #travel #home #lovemywife #townsville #jetstarsucks

19.01.2022 I don’t do bridal expos. These are pressure sell environments which, when it comes to choosing a celebrant, is pressure couples don’t need. And the time to talk about marriage takes more than the four minutes a couple might have when wading through all the vendors. When you book a time to see me, there’s no entry fee. Just a chat, maybe a coffee (because coffee) and answers to any and all of your questions #love #marriage #lifegoals #coffee #marriagecelebrant

17.01.2022 Thought I’d take the new eco-friendly car out for its first wedding rehearsal this afternoon - cannot wait for this riverside wedding #love #weddinglocation #marriage

16.01.2022 A big shout out to one of Albury’s brilliant small business operators, Glen Strauss. Glen designed and installed my signage with a whole lotta care, and I couldn’t be happier #advertising #marriage #smallbusiness

15.01.2022 I’ve been awarded Best Regional Celebrant for 2018! If you want to meet up for an obligation free chat about your special day, contact me! #marriage #wedding #love #loverules #soulmate

13.01.2022 Trying to get home when your travel agent cancels ALL your flights #noplacelikehome #townsville #sydney #albury

13.01.2022 When you see celebrants claim they are award recipeints, be aware that the major industry awards in Australia expect you to pay them to receive recognition. Their award system expects couples to nominate and vote for you. Then it becomes a popularity contest, and not one based on excellence or actual professionalism. Think of the Logies Awards and that’s pretty much what the ABIA Awards are. If you want to know the great celebrants in your area, speak to the people who know: photographers, DJ’s, venues, caterers, etc #marriage #wedding #celebrant #awards

12.01.2022 Now that the country is opening up, I’ll be flying to Townsville to officiate a small and intimate ceremony for a wonderful couple. Never been so north before. What to wear... #tropicalwedding #northernaustralia #queensland #love #elopement

12.01.2022 This is a long one, but important for all couples wishing to marry from 2021 and beyond. Please share if you can. IF YOU ARE OR I AM AFFECTED BY COVID-19 *What if we feel unwell? If you feel unwell on your wedding day, contact me immediately. If any of your guests feel unwell, ask them to stay at home....Continue reading

11.01.2022 I check in with all service providers before or on the day, to make sure the couple gets everything they have asked for - including a celebrant who doesn't get in the way! I love going to weddings and seeing a celebrant who is self-aware, and moves out of the crucial photo shots - the ring exchange and the kiss. I have also vowed never to wear a skin coloured head mic - audio equipment needs to be out of visual.

07.01.2022 Well, it’s been an adventure but HELLO SYDNEY! Didn’t think I’d be this happy to see you, but here we are! Staying at the brand spanking new Holiday Inn close by before heading home in the wee hours #homewardbound #sydney #albury #celebrant #love #marriage #lovemywife

06.01.2022 I cannot wait for November 20 to tell you how much I love the work I do for the many couples and families I work for, sharing the stories and the love and the laughs (and sometimes the heartbreak). I can’t even begin to describe how grateful I am to be a small part in your day #grateful #celebrant #love
