Renewal of Vows


I am often asked to perform Renewal of Vows ceremonies. Sometimes these are couples I married 10 years ago, and sometimes they just find me on the internet.

Recently I have conducted two such ceremonies and the couples were both celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.

This is a photo of Pina & Nicolo. It was such a wonderful ceremony as they were joined by their family and friends. I had the honour of conducting the wedding ceremony of their son Alberto and his beautiful bride Katie last year. It was lovely to catch up with them. They are now expecting their first child in November.

The Renewal was arranged by Pina and Nicolo's daughter, Isabella. What a woman! She has three very young children, yet managed to organize the day with apparent ease.

Delightful couple from the USA


The weather last weekend was of course glorious for my weddings, but the previous week was another story.

I conducted a truly beautiful wedding for Al and Linda who come from Indiana in the USA. The wedding was to be on the harbour foreshore looking across to the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. Thursday the 21st July was one of the most miserable days weatherwise for sometime. This did not dampen the spirit of this couple.....just look at the photo taken by Raoul Tackelburg - www.raoul.com.au

We did the ceremony in the Sheraton on the Park and then Raoul and Colin - www.cheersvideo.com.au took Al and Linda to The Rocks area and they were so pleased with the results.
