What I can do
In short, I passionately create ceremonies and celebrations for modern couples to honour life’s significant moments in joyful ways.
Whatever your story is I will ask the questions which will help create a ceremony that is full of love, laughter and tears too (although only if you want them!).
I am here to make your day and exceed all your expectations, and I can do that because I am completely dedicated to you. I will stop at nothing to make sure your big day is perfect - whatever that day may be - and that your story is told perfectly.
I am a certified independent celebrant and can create your ceremony and act as your mistress of ceremonies, your event planner and everything in between. Or I can simply be the sounding board to make sure your day is perfect. Whatever you choose, I will be there from the brainstorming stage to the final moments. When things get tough I get calm!
I offer unique add on services such as a custom song. Click the links on the right to find out more.
-
I will create the ceremony from the story/discussions we have together and conduct the ceremony on the day.
-
A vow-writing workshop can be included as part of the package or separately if you just need help with one element.
-
Brainstorming for the event is part of my repertoire, I am more than happy to help with creating themes, ideas or the intricate details which will set your day apart.
-
Project management is my middle name and if you would like to farm out all things related to the event then I can take this on and make sure the day runs like clockwork and looks exactly how it does in your imagination. I have planned events of up to 500 people and am well versed in all of the minutia that goes into making a day perfect.
I also work with people who solely specialise in events so I can also connect you with them.
-
I work with my partner so we can tailor this part of my package to suit you and provide either a master or mistress of cermemonies.
-
Everything I do is a family affair. My son is a platinum selling songwriter currently working out in Los Angeles and should you wish he will take your story and turn it into a unique personalised song that you can dance to and always remember your day by. Whatever your musical preference he will write, sing and record your song.
You’ll find more examples of his work below.
-
Personalised ceramics can be created for your centre piece, for table decorations, seating signage, display, personalised vases or as gifts for the bridal party. It is another part of my portfolio and you can see more examples by scrolling down.
YOUR OWN CUSTOM SONG
YOUR OWN CUSTOM SONG
My son Jake is a platinum selling songwriter working out in LA. To make your day extra special, and to create a unique memory that you can treasure forever, he would love to write a song especially for you using your story, your feelings and your style.
I’ll simply ask you for the special details you’d like included in the song - whether it’s your relationship story; what you love about your partner; your favourite memories; or just some things that make you laugh. Then you choose your genre (pop; acoustic; singer/songwriter or rock), your mood (happy; sad; reflective; uplifting) and your tempo (slow; medium; up-tempo) and he’ll do the rest.
You can see some examples of his custom songs on the left. He has had 5 radio number ones; charted on the Spotify Viral Top 50 in over 15 countries; and toured with artists such as The Lumineers and The Kooks. You can choose to include this add-on any time up until 4 days before your ceremony, although you may want to sing along to it in the build up to the big day.
Personalised Ceramics
I am a trained ceramicist and would love to make you a custom ornament (or ornaments!) to use as centre pieces for the ceremony, or just to remember the day by. You can click the link below to see more of my work or check out @BottomleyPots, but I am happy to make any sort of ceramic you desire - it does not have to be a bottom!
