Beautiful Beginnings Wedding Day

07/02/2025

After much thinking and no forthcoming bookings for the pop-up weddings in Valentines Day, we're changing tact.
Watch this space for a new version of what will offer.
Still working with the same vendors, just offering couples something different.

How about those awkward family photos 🤣
Merry Christmas from my family to yours. While this expansion on my celebrant business has not quite yet reached the people who it would suit, the dream was launched and that took courage and I've met some amazing people in the process 😀

Pop up weddings aren't for everyone but they will be for someone. Spread the word, share the idea and look out for a future winter date in June/ July 2025.

How beautiful does this food look!?! Paula made these herself and they were a flavour sensation in my mouth. We had roast beef on Crostini with horseradish cream, Salmon Blinis with lemon, caper & dill cream and (not pictured here) Blue cheese shortbread with kusundi cream, pear and Walnut. Just you wait till you try them on your wedding day.
