I actually cannot believe how lucky I have been this year conducting 111 ceremonies.
๐ธ๏ธ 105 weddings
๐ธ๏ธ 4 naming days
๐ธ๏ธ 1 vow renewal
๐ธ๏ธ 1 funeral for Steve ๐
When I typed in 111, this wonderful little meaning appeared and I've never read anything so fitting!
The tears are flowing reminiscing about this past year, my 5th year as a celebrant and my first year with the magical team at Thistle Ceremonies who are just the best.
Being a part of Thistle really is a 2nd family. We are all equals who support, care for and encourage each other and being a registered charity is WILD! Like WOW!
When you book me as your celebrant, a percentage of the money goes towards our charity to help tackle funeral poverty so THANK YOU ๐
I will never ever take for granted how lucky I am to do this job.
I've married so many amazing people this year, from Mr & Mrs Meach in January to Mr & Mrs Alexander this week!
I've helped families celebrate new life with naming days and also the most amazing adoption ceremony for gorgeous Christian ๐
In May, my darling family lost their beloved Steve. They have shown such strength this year and I hope you all realise how amazing you are! I will forever hold dear the chat I had with Steve planning his celebration of life and thankful I could lead his funeral service ๐
I've climbed mountains, strolled along beaches, explored heritage sites, visited many hotels, barns, bars, marquees, gardens and taken HUNDREDS of TERRIBLE TOILET SELFIES ๐คณ ๐ ๐ฝ๐พ
I've worked 70 hour weeks to ensure every single ceremony is unique and bespoke and always memorable with lots of love, giggles, crazy and joy mixed in!
Thank you to the fantastic WEDDING SUPPLIERS I have worked alongside this year.I've made amazing friends along the way and we are all a little bonkers ๐คฃ
To my friends and family...thank you for your support and understanding! I LOVE YOU and without you this ain't possible โค๏ธ
So here is to 2023...๐ญ๐ฌ๐ฎ ceremonies booked in and I'm blown away!
Happy Hogmanay everyone. Stay safe, stay happy, reach out, be kind, love, laugh and just BE YOU!
