Lets talk about SEX!

Now that I have your attention let’s talk about same sex marriage, Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Transsexual, Queer, Questioning, Asexual, Pansexual or any other identity that you relate to…..to me it doesn’t make one iota of a difference, to me LOVE IS LOVE !

How does it work?

After another busy weekend of meetings and flitting around like a busy bee I thought I would write a little something regarding “what to do”? or ” How does it work if we want a celebrant”?, As this seems to be the question that pops up the most when being contacted by couples.

woodhall Manor.

I was at the stunning Woodhall Manor wedding open day today, and despite the dreadful weather courtesy of “storm Dennis” there was a really good turn out of both suppliers and potential couples. The welcome from the friendly staff was second to none and the tea, coffee and food samples were plentiful. The doughnut wall, candy cart and popcorn stall were a very welcome sight for anyone with a sweet tooth…..just saying!!
