Pat Haynes Marriage Celebrant

What do you call a bunch of people gathered to learn, collaborate, connect, mingle and party? A kaleidoscopic, cacophonous collection of Celebrants from all corners of Australia!! I spent 3 raucous nights and 2 incredible days with some of the most wonderful celebrants, all of us intent on moving our businesses forward and improving what we LOVE to do. They were hugs galore, drinks a plenty, glamorous guests, 100's of photos - far too many to show here.
Thanks to the incredible team for putting this amazing conference together and for the pics

I like to describe myself as cheeky person. I love a good laugh, especially at my own expense. Life is far too short to be wasted on the mundane and miserable. I enjoy the company of people (your geusts), who can either be drawn into, or can initiate shennanigans; this includes your ceremony. YES! Your ceremony is a celebration so why wait until the Reception to actually CELEBRATE? Gather your loved ones, the ones who share your interests, the energetic ones, the interesting ones, the ones who have your backs, the ones who see you for who you really are. I will bring my energy to match yours, dressed in my funky Opp Shop outfit and ready to get your party started!
*Disclaimer* No I DO NOT EMCEE - there's only so much mischief this Celebrant can handle in one day xx

I DO Love a cheeky photo with my couples! When the ceremony is over, the guests have offered their congrats and the photographer has taken the obligatory family photos, I attempt to sneak in for a quick pic with the Newlyweds before I make my exit... Sometimes that's not always possible, so when I can I like to have a photo at the signing table with them. My hands on their shoulders as we all smile and I casually tell them they are NOW officially married. I walk away, giving them a moment alone to let that sink in. I DO Love that moment.

Hello Lovers!! Pat here from KissKiss Weddings. I'd love to know ... what's the MOST important thing you're looking forward to on your Wedding Day? Seeing all your loved ones gathered in the same place to celebrate with you? One of my most FAVOURITE things about your Day is ... I get to meet so many amazing and unique people! My couples are the BEST, but your families, your friends and even your wedding vendors are such an important part of the day. I will always find a way to include these important people within your ceremony. Whether I introduce the photographer/videographer at the very start - so your guests know they can put their phones away *wink wink. Or I'll acknowledge the gorgeous venue/ceremony space we're gathered at to celebrate your love, AND, I will include your nearest and dearest and make sure they know how loved they are. I may even call on them to make some promises to you!

It was W.C. Fields that famously said, "never work with children or animals".
But did someone say, ''furbaby?". OMG! I'd love to see your furbaby walk down the aisle. They are such a wonderful inclusion in your ceremony - just make sure it's your dog ok? I'm not advocating you stop on the way to your wedding and steal a random dog walking with it's owner, that would be weird... right?
Just look how much fun Bondy the Beaglier is having ... And see how proud Jax the Daschund is? Jax was loving himself sick with all the pats he got after the ceremony! And then of course, there's the non-furry-babies. Flower Girls, Page Boys, Ring Bearers; whatever role you give them, they are sure to melt some hearts, steal the limelight or cause chaos; but what awesome memories are created.
