Claudia and Florian met on their first day at business school in Vienna. Claudia had actually spotted Florian on the tram before they arrived at school and she had secretly hoped that they would be crossing paths and going to the same school. And fate did of course step in and made sure that not only were they going to the same business school but also in the same class! Fast forward to their ten year anniversary, where Florian took Claudia to dinner at the the Melia restaurant in the DC Tower, Vienna. He chose this place because of the great view above the city. Unfortunately on that eveni ..read more

Planning a wedding can be all about lists, emails, contracts and continuous negotiation between you, your partner and the tribe of people involved in your day.

I love it when I do celebrant interviews for celebrants who I have met in person because I can really attest to just how special they are, and with Aleksandra, there is no exception! We met at a celebrant workshop that I was teaching and after chatting with her for twenty minutes during lunch, I was left seriously mind-blowned. As well as being an amazing wedding celebrant Aleksandra is a systemic practitioner who works with people to resolve their life situations with the help of a therapeutic framework called ‘systemic family constellations’ and systemic ritual. It’s based on the ..read more

I don’t know how it happened, but somewhere along the way, the ideas of what makes a personal wedding ceremony have got a bit jumbled up. There seems to be quite a big presumption on the part of some newlyweds-to-be that having a personal, bespoke wedding ceremony will automatically translate as a romantic one. Like the two go hand in hand. That somehow ‘personal’ equates to ‘romantic.’ So don’t worry folks, if you’re someone who thinks along these lines, someone who secretly fears that a bespoke wedding ceremony will force you to be the romantic soul that you’re not (no shame here!), th ..read more

The couples I work with are all so different but there’s one question they almost all agree on. When I ask ‘what wouldn’t you like your guests to say about your wedding ceremony?’ I reckon 9 out of 10 of my couples respond: ‘I’d hate them to think it was boring’.  Whatever your style as a couple – however you feel about romance, drama and being the centre of attention – you don’t want to bore your guests. At most weddings the ceremony is the first moment when all your guests come together as a group and get a taste of what kind of day you’ve got planned for them.  They don’t get much of ..read more
