Wedding Club Ideas: This gorgeous jar of love rocks can be written into your ceremony or be part of your reception party. It goes well with either a beach, garden or country wedding theme.

Wedding Club Ideas: Don't forget to dress up your feet with anklets or toe-thongs for when you slip off those shoes at a beach wedding.

Noosa Celebrant Michele Collins. Just booked another wedding today at The Apollonian Hotel at Boreen Point. Such a wonderful intimate venue.

Wedding Club Ideas: The wind has arrived today with catastrophic repercussions. Another contingency plan for brides planing a Beach or Garden Wedding. You will need protection, so select an area that will slow the wind. The sheltered side of a point, a cove, not an open stretch of beach.

Wedding Club Ideas: Don't forget to consider a short wedding dress if it's your second wedding, an elopement, a cocktail reception or you just wish to feel more comfortable for your reception.

House Naming Celebrant Michele Collins. Last weekends house naming/ house warming ceremony for a lovely couple in Shelly Beach. What else would you call it but the "Shelly Shack". A warm inviting atmosphere surrounds this quirky little home. Such a joy to welcome them into the community.

Wedding Club Ideas: How is this for an awesome idea. Many ceremony decorators have these large love letters for hire. I have seen these made in natural wood displayed for one of my beach weddings

Wedding Club Ideas: Don't forget to practice "the kiss" for your wedding day. If you would like that all important photo to look good give your photographer something grand to shoot. A nice long kiss and don't forget the embrace. Practice makes perfect.

Wedding Ideas. Warmer colours for your maids and flowers are in for the cooler months. Deep reds and rich purples go well for winter weddings

Wedding Ceremony Ideas. Don't forget to have a wet weather backup all year round. Many venues and even cafes will have an area you can use. Planing well in advance alleviates the stress on the day.
