I recently started reading Michelle O’bama’s book: The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times. As she states herself, it’s part self help (I am a sucker for a self help book) and part memoir (I devoured her first memoir Becoming, during lockdown) and I’m already hooked. Michelle offers words of wisdom and encouragement on daily struggles we will all encounter at some point and quite frankly, I’m keen to become her BFF.

Quite early on in the book, she talks about feeling nervous when embarking on a new adventure-she talks candidly about how she wanted to say no, when Barak asked if he could stand for president. In the early chapter she says:

‘There’s no getting around the fact that our nerves will ride shotgun with us pretty much any time we approach the unfamiliar, anytime we move into a new frontier and feel the stakes get bumped as a result…who doesn’t bring a spoonful of fear to the first day of a new job? … Or on a first date?’

She goes on to say: ‘These are moments of distinct discomfort…but they can be thrilling too.

Why? Because we don’t know what lies on the other side of that initial experience. The journey to get to it might just be transformative….How will you meet your soulmate if you don’t go on that date?

Are you based in Yorkshire and looking for a heartfelt and a wedding obsessive, love story enthusiast wedding celebrant, to curate your wedding ceremony of dreams, then look no further.

My celebrant-led ceremonies are one of a kind. They are unlike any other religious ceremony or standard, registrar legal ceremony that you will already be familiar with. My ceremonies firmly plant themselves into the hearts and minds of you and your guests; I embrace everyone at your wedding ceremony with a never-ending hug of love and warmth. I love to spread positivity, joy and heartfelt stories at your ceremonies but above all, I love to celebrate you and your love story. This is why your guests will be raptured by the ceremony and will, quite frankly, think it’s the best wedding they’ve ever been to!

All of the weddings I curate and officiate are highly personalised and bespoke. My aim is to make your wedding ceremony a fully immersive experience for everyone involved, using symbols, words and traditions that are personal to you.

Part of this process is helping you to create your own special, heartfelt vows which become a real key moment in your wedding ceremony. Your vows express your deep connection to one another; your devotion to being together for all eternity…in that moment of your wedding ceremony, they quite literally make time stop still!

In a recent wedding I officiated, the children were plentiful and I worked very closely with the couple to consider ways of ensuring the children felt like they were included in the ceremony. The groom had three daughters from a previous marriage so the eldest daughter wrote her own speech, the middle daughter was the ring bearer and the youngest daughter set up a glitter station to adorn the guests with a bit of sparkle after the ceremony. Meanwhile, the bride has three nieces so the younger two nieces helped with the glitter station and the eldest niece read a poem by A A Milne during the ceremony. It was light-hearted and poignant-exactly what was required by the bride and groom
