A brief comment on the service: our day was magical, Both Alison and John were just AMAZING, they really made the whole process so easy, and was with us every step of the way, my Dad and Mum said that i could not have found a better celebrant. My Dad was so nervous, as were the Groomsmen but John and Alison knew just what to do. Thank you so much for making our special day. It was everything we hoped for and more.

We could not have asked for a kinder, more accommodating, and lovely celebrant. Allison guided us through all the steps necessary for organising the required paperwork for our wedding and the particulars of the ceremony. She answered any questions we had and was easily contactable by email Our ceremony on the day was beautiful and flawless, and suited our personalities to a tee - it was an unforgettable day. Highly recommended!

My husband and I had Alison as our celebrant and she was just beyond amazing! The first meeting with Alison we knew we wanted her as our celebrant! Not only was she genuine she has a beautiful soul! Alison was beyond organised and brought no stress to the wedding plans and made us feel at ease. On the day Alison’s husband assisted in guiding my mum and I to when we should start walking down the aisle which was an added bonus...At our ceremony Alison was professional and was everything I wanted in a celebrant! I can not speak highly enough of how great she is!

I'm considering walking myself down the aisle, thoughts?

Has any other bride done this at one of your weddings?

Follow That Dream

As celebrants we have seen many different entrances over the years...one of the most romantic ceremonies was seeing a bride walking herself across this beautiful lawn to "their" favourite song...they only had eyes for one another it really was a beautiful moment! There are no hard and fast rules follow your heart and what feels right for you on your special day.

Is it okay to stand the opposite way at the altar?

I know the bride is meant to stand on the left in our culture (and opposite in Jewish ceremonies), but can I stand on the right?

Follow That Dream

Absolutely!

I officiated a wedding ceremony recently where the bride was self conscious about a scar on her arm, it really bothered her so it was lovely to see her relax and let go of feeling anxious when she knew she could stand whereever she felt more comfortable :-)
