📸 I love it when photographers move around during the ceremony and capture moments from a different angle.

💍 This ring exchange, captured by the super gorgeous @naliawedding, was taken from my perspective, with the guests in the background, and it’s such a beautiful option don’t you think?

🤍 My view.

I have been asked many times what it’s like to be a celebrant.

I spend weeks, months and sometimes years getting to know a couple. I discover all the things they love about each other, and sometimes what they don’t love about each other too!

I find out what they thought about each other when they first met, how they fell in love, what made them decide to get married, and what they’re looking forward to most in the future.

We talk about the funny times, the devastating times, and all the wins + set backs they have shared together. And of course, we always talk about all the exciting plans for the wedding!

Through all of that, we work through and create a marriage ceremony that reflects their relationship perfectly.

And then the wedding day rolls around.

Family + friends are all together in the one place, everyone is smiling and festive, music commences, the guests of honour have made their entrance, I welcome everyone to the celebration, and then I turn to look at the couple I have spent all that time getting to know and this is what I see.

Those faces! That pure joy 😍

This is what it’s like to be a celebrant.
This is why I love what I do.
After all the wedding planning, being married is the goal of the day, and I am the person who gets to make sure that happens.

What’s not to love about that 😍

🤍 Emotions understandably run high when you’re making lifetime promises to your soul mate before all your nearest and dearest.

Just know that when the words get stuck in your throat, and you’re finding it hard to catch your breath, I’ll be there to breathe with you and help you through it. 🤍

🥂 With the 21/22 wedding season coming to an end, I’m now spending some downtime with my family and moving full steam ahead into bookings for the 22/23 season!

I am so looking forward to planning meetings with all my Spring/Summer couples (I’ll be in touch soon if I haven’t contacted you already!) as well as new couples who are only just starting the search for their A-team supplier list, and the unbelievably patient couples who had to put everything on hold after postponing from 2020!

In the meantime, in between some serious admin and ceremony writing, I’ll pop onto socials every now and then to share some of the gorgeous wedding photos that have been sitting in my inbox, or some handy tips to help you with your wedding planning!

Big hugs and love to all xx

🤍 Sarah + Heath 🤍

Magical first dance capture by @naliaweddings

📖There are stories of the first wedding dance dating back to a time when the groom would steal his bride away and show off his new wife to his friends by dancing her around the fire.

👑This evolved into 16th-century European royal weddings, where guests would honour their newlywed king and queen by gliding across the ballroom, as the couple sat and politely watched.

🎊These days, it can either be a lovely romantic tradition, or replaced with a number of alternative options, like a fully choreographed routine, to a flash mob style presentation, to maybe even skipping the first dance altogether and simply inviting guests to get up and join you in a first dance all together!

✅Let me know if you’re doing something, or have done something different!
❤️❤️❤️
