WEDDING FAYRE ANNOUNCEMENT!

This Sunday The New Thomas Arms are hosting their first-ever Wedding Fayre!

I'm delighted to announce I will be there as a supplier 🥰

As a small business owner myself, I love, love, love supporting new and other small businesses. So if you're actively looking for suppliers, just looking for inspiration, or want to support a local business, pop along and say hi - we'd love to see you there!

Back in May, I had the absolute pleasure of reciting this beautiful poem at one of my Ceremonies - I may not have this amazing accent but I think I did quite well.

This is now one of my favourite poems of all time 🥰

What a day!
I had such a fabulous time talking to other suppliers and with everyone who came up to my table😁

It's always a bonus when I walk away from days like today knowing I've made some new friends 🥰

I flippin' love what I do 💕

Come and find me in amongst the towers, tales and happily ever afters.... exactly where a good storyteller should be 😁

S & G decided I was the right amount of what they were looking for to officiate their ceremony in 2028😁.

Date secured.

I am genuinely honoured and ridiculously excited to start crafting a ceremony that's full of all the right moments!

2028.... I'm coming for you 🧡💛

Not every ceremony this summer has been a happy occasion.

Some have been about saying goodbye.

After Carole's funeral service, her Brother-in-law, Richard, contacted me by email. Nearing his 80th birthday, he told me he's 'lost count' of the number of funerals he's attended within that time.

I don't mind admitting that brought a lump to my throat.

'the celebration of Carole's life this morning was by far the finest I have ever had the opportunity to experience.'

That's what a good funeral can be. Sad, but also full of love, memories, laughter, and good stories.

Thank you, Richard, for letting me share your beautiful words ❤️
