Merry Christmas! Thankyou for an amazing year.....(again)

To all the wonderful people I have met and married over the last three incredible years - Thankyou. You have inspired me to challenge myself in ways I didn't know I could, to stay up late typing away every night, to say goodbye to weekends off and to embrace a new life made better every day, by each couple I am privileged to help. You give me the drive to make every wedding I do, feel like the only wedding I have ever done. You have brought me moments of sheer joy, and delight. You have wrapped me up in the love, I have wrapped you in, and sometimes, you have brought me to happy tears.  This wedding pixie feels like a fairy godmother every single time.

You even turned me into an award winner, voting so furiously, with such determination that I just won the Australian Bridal Industry Academy Award for Best Marriage Celebrant in NSW. There aren't any words to describe quite how that feels. But believe me, it's good. Very, very good.

Merry Christmas Newlyweds! Please all of you, stay in touch. You are loved.
To the amazing people that I have met along the way - hurrah for you! You have made it a treat to show up at each wedding and find a friendly photographer shooting away. Or a videographer not too shy to help me hide that microphone under my clothes - and some that found it hilarious (and facebooked about it later). Florists, your beautiful flowers make my brides really, really happy. Makeup artists, you give my girls the courage to face all those people, as they come down the aisle looking like a more glorious version of themselves. You have turned a solitary job into one that feels more like a part of a community, with every wedding I do. I have people to chat with, people who share my lack of social life and revel in the joys that I do.
Merry Christmas everyone - I can't wait to see what the New Year holds for us all.

And PS. Thanks especially to my dear friend Len of www.ilovewednesdays.com for this lovely photo, taken at my father's November wedding (that's another story altogether) and to the utterly glorious Amy Chan who fixed the kink in my hair and worked her magic on me, too!

The biggest thanks of all to my lovely little family - my husband Tor -  who reminds me quite often that there is only room enough for one person in our house that truly loves their work - and that is me - and supports me unfailingly. And my two little boys, Joshua and Aiden, who simultaneously drive me completely nuts and make me want to hug them all day long. Lucky xxxxxx
