⚽️ Right now, the world is coming together in North America for the FIFA World Cup.
For me, the world has been coming together right here in Melbourne.
Every flag in this photo represents at least one nationality of a bride or groom I’ve had the privilege of marrying. Different languages. Different traditions. Different cultures. But every ceremony has celebrated the same thing: two people choosing each other.
It’s one of the things I love most about being a marriage celebrant in one of the world’s most multicultural cities. On any given weekend, I might include Japanese, Greek, Colombian, Chinese, Bosnian, Indian or South African traditions. Or simply helping two families from opposite sides of the world become one.
While the soccer world is playing on the other side of the globe, I’ve been lucky enough to be marrying the world in our own backyard.
Here’s to love with every accent, every culture and every flag. ❤️🌏
