A couple just emailed asking how big was the marriage certificate they received from me on the day of their wedding. The couple are getting a picture framer to cut a backing board to frame their marriage certificate. They want to bring the backing board to their reception and have all their guests sign it. They will then add the marriage certificate to it later.
The official marriage certificate that you will receive on the day of your wedding is an A4 size. This is a legal document and proof that you got married. You can find a sample at the Attorney General's Department website. Click on the link at the top right hand corner of the screen where you can download a sample. ... read more

I was just going back through some old ceremonies and I came across this delightful one which I will always remember. This young couple were bright and vivacious and full of enthusiasm. I would like to share just one part of the ceremony that I wrote for them. I asked if they had any surprises planned (a great question for celebrants to ask!) and they said, 'well, actually yes!' When they told me what they were doing I was happy to support them. I have changed their names and a few details to maintain their privacy as it has been a long time since we have had contact. ... read more

I was recently asked for some information on the wording for a butterfly release for a wedding. With the butterfly ceremony I ask my couples to consider what the butterfly symbolises for them (some examples might be: beauty, transformation, freedom, softness etc) I then incorporate their ideas into the wording before the release. There is a well known quote about sending wishes on the butterfly wings (since they make no sound and can tell no-one this secret wish) up to the heavens for them to be granted. It is an opportunity to invite the wedding guests to make a wish for the couple as the butterflies are released. ... read more

Roger and I watched a beautiful program yesterday on the effect of music on people. It was a insightful look through the eyes of the Philadelphia Philharmonic Orchestra and their world tour. In one part of the program they were working with beautiful Chinese bells that when played captured my attention and lifted my spirits. They were delicate and yet commanding. It reminded me of a stunning ceremony I conducted down by the banks of the Never Never River at the Promised Lands in the Bellinger Valley. ... read more
