Our lovely celebrant gave us this great reminder! I’m a control freak so it’s handy to keep in mind!
Weddings are alot like any other occasion in life – anything can happen.
The great banana peel of existence is always on the floor, somewhere. Not only that – anything might go right.
Sometimes the unexpected is an unforgettable moment that transforms a wedding into a memorable experience. The sweetest memories are seldom the results of planning.
Forget fashion shows. Forget a performance. Forget perfection.
Whatever happens gets acknowledged and included.
Whatever happens – we work it in.Remember, nothing can ruin a wedding if the heart is right and nothing can help a wedding if it’s a military drill.
So relax. Be here. Notice each other. You could walk through fire together.
