It's like ra-e-ain on your wedding day...
Is there any real basis for telling a bride that it's good luck when it rains on her wedding day or is it just one of those things people tell you to make you feel better? Well EC celebrant Melissa did some research and here are the facts.

The voice...
As celebrants our voice is one of our most important tools of trade. How we sound is a big part of why couples choose us and of course if we lose our voice on ceremony day... well you can imagine how well that ceremony would go!

The most personal part of these ceremonies? Their vows. I am always in awe of the vows couples share with each other. It offers the rest of us a little glimpse into their very private world.

Think I want to marry you...
Songs and lyrics for your wedding... Hey baby, I think I want to marry you! Sounds like a great wedding song doesn't it. The name of this great song by Bruno Mars even describes the event (Marry You). But is it such a great choice? And why is it so important to really listen?
