Ring Warming

Hands down my favourite part of any ceremony. We pass the rings among your guests for them to hug them close and infuse them with their best wishes for your married life. By the time you exchange them, your rings will already be warm with the love and best vibes of your family and friends! <3

Call Someone Out

Is one of your guests responsible for setting you up? Or did they just not get the vibe and hung around as an uncomfy third wheel for waaaaay too long?

If one of your guests played a significant role in your story - let’s call them out! This can be in the form of a public pat on the back, or a bit of mild ribbing. Up to you! Let me know who they are and I’ll do the rest.

Witness/Pronouncement Raffle

Did you know? Your witnesses can be any of your guests, as long as they’re both over the age of 18 and understand English. Why not keep everyone on their toes and draw the names of your witnesses during the ceremony? You can rig it and just give me the names of the people you really want, or you can throw caution to the wind and give me everyone’s names! This also works amazingly when one of your guests is selected to pronounce you married! Saying the “I now pronounce you…” isn’t a legal requirement, so we can spring the job on one of your guests! So. Much. Fun.

Cheeeeeers!!!

干杯, Salute!, Prost!

Why not ask one of your eloquent mates or the brother who didn’t get the MC gig to make the first toast to you during the ceremony?! Or if Dad is likely to waffle on a bit during the reception, let’s move him to a snappy lil toast during the ceremony. There are a few logistical things to work through with this one - but it’s great fun and means everyone has a drink as soon as the ceremony is done.

Important Rituals

Just cos you’re not getting married in a church, doesn’t mean we can’t incorporate the rituals that are important to your culture. I’m all about including these important elements, but more than that - making sure they feel authentic, modern and genuine.

Remembering Them

Weddings are terribly exciting, but often they can also be very painful. If you’re missing someone really important on your big day, there are lots of ways of remembering them and acknowledging their presence.
