I often wonder how people choose to share their homework with one another so it was lovely to get this message and photo from Amanda and Stuart. While Wee Molly the Westie was away at my mum’s for the weekend, we decided to share some alone time with some lovely red wine and read each other’s … Continue Reading
Not every couple really gets the way I work, but Sally and Iain did from the word go. I remember getting this email from Sally when they’d done their homework. I can’t wait to read through these ceremonies! I’ve been reading your blog in every spare moment today and gathering up all … Continue Reading
Writing your own wedding ceremony isn’t for everyone. And even when you know that it’s exactly what you want to do, it can still be a challenge. It certainly was for Jolan and Dougie. We first met back in June, but two months later, Jolan got in touch to say that they were … Continue Reading

And I’ve never forgotten her clever mnemonic of the correct way to pronounce her name. ‘It’s Liza with a ‘zee’, not Lisa with an ‘s’ Cos Liza with a ‘zee’ goes ‘zzz’, not … Continue Reading
