YEAR IN REVIEW

2024

Christmas has come and gone and another year is almost over. December’s Blog post is, therefore, a reflection on some milestones in my celebrant business and just some of the beautiful people who trusted me to deliver their wedding, naming day, commitment or memorial service. Here is my year in review.

Awards

As well as these beautiful celebrations, I was also presented with two more awards this year.

 

The first was THE BEST MARRIAGE CELEBRANT IN LISMORE NSW 2024

from Quality Business Awards. For further info, head over here.

 

 

 

 

 

The second was #2 HIGHLY COMMENDED CIVIL MARRIAGE CELEBRANT TWEED COAST/

BYRON BAY 2024

from Wedding Industry Awards. For further info, head over here.

 

When you consider the large number of celebrants working in these areas, it is humbling to have been recognised for two consecutive years in this way.

Wishing all my past, present and future couples a wonderful 2025. I hope it’s filled with making wonderful new memories to treasure always.
