Congratulations on your Engagement!! “Marriage is symbolic of the opening of the caterpillar’s chrysalis to reveal the beautiful butterfly ~ the newly wedded couple. With the left wing representing the woman, the right the man, & the body encompassing the union of the two (their marriage), working together they can reach heights they never before thought possible. Together they can realise their dreams & more!” Bev Hauschild 2008 |

I offer my couples the choice of 4 Wedding Package Options... The 'Diamond Wedding Package' each ceremony is custom written (with as much or as little input from the marrying couple as they wish) to truly reflect the marrying couple & their personalities. Couples are encouraged to include symbolism, rituals, poem readings & personally written vows should they choose to. (See the 'Fees & Services' webpage for full service & inclusion details) The 'Platinum Wedding Package' covers everything included in the Diamond Wedding Package plus has additional services which are provided to help make your day, & your experience, even more amazing & memorable! The Platinum Bonuses include: * Non-alcoholic Bubbly & Champagne Glasses supplied for the Bride & Groom to toast to their official new beginning as Husband & Wife, whilst photos are being taken. (Non-alcoholic as it's illegal to drink alcohol in public places such as parks etc. Plus the couple generally needs a little re-hydrating by this stage... now that the nerves are over & the party is about to begin!) * 10 small bottles of Wedding Bubbles for the bridal party &/or chosen children to blow over the couple in celebration (this is used in place of confetti or rice, as most venues don't even allow rose petals to be thrown) * Use of a beautiful White Feather Pen for signing the legal documents (looks great in photos!), or a slightly less extravagant pen if the feather pen is not to your taste. * Candid Photographs taken by Me of your guests before the Bride arrives, & immediately after the ceremony... Although I am not a professional photographer, I love to take photos & believe that you can never have too many photos of your amazing day!!! (you can see samples of my photography throughout this website) ~ Photos taken are put onto CD & are yours to keep & use however you wish (this will be posted to you with your keepsake ceremony booklet). ~ A small selection of photos will be edited by me using the picnik website. These will then be used to decorate your keepsake booklet. * A beautifully decorated A4 sized Fridge Magnet with a selection of photos of your amazing day! The 'Simplicity Package Options'... 'Simplicity Weekday Package' (Mon-Thurs) 'Simplicity Weekend Package' (Sat & Sun) Similar to a Registry-Style or Elopement Wedding, the 'Simplicity Options' are a no-fuss Wedding Ceremony which is held in my comfortable air-conditioned office in Karana Downs, Brisbane. (For further details, including prices & inclusions for any or all of the above mentioned packages, see the 'Fees & Services' webpage) |

After the wedding, I then put together your 'Keepsake Ceremony Booklet' which I decorate using a selection of photographs that I'd taken of you & your guests on the day. It's a beautiful memento! |

This wedding featured in the news headlines! See below...
On Friday 28/05/10, A Current Affair aired a segment on 'Wacky Australian Weddings'. Canditta & Adam Natakuapa featured on it. If you look carefully enough, you'll see me in the background, performing the ceremony ;) Here's the link if you'd like to watch it... http://video.au.msn.com/watch/ In May last year I had the pleasure of marrying Canditta & Adam Natakuapa, whose unusually themed wedding hit the headlines everywhere!!
