Valentine Wish

PEG AND POG SEND A VALENTINE WISH

Peg and Pog and Glenda send a special Valentine wish to all lovers.  February 14 is the traditional day for sending a Valentine wish to your sweetheart.

Romance is in the Air

Romance!  What exactly does it mean?  According to the Macmillan dictionary online, the countable noun, ‘romance’ is “a feeling of excitement that you get from new and slightly dangerous experiences.”

Until Pog met Peg he had not experienced anything particularly exciting or dangerous.  Break dancing, although being somewhat exciting and dangerous, had not had any romantic effects on Pog.  Of course break dancing on his own, in private, did not set Pog up for any likely romantic experiences.

Peg and Pog Valentine Wish

Peg and Pog stars of Dolls are Different, or are they?

Peg and Pog know a thing or two about romance

Pog can thank his unique execution of the ‘orbital rotation’ break dance move, as the catapult (literally) that lands him among the roses and his ‘romantic awakening.’

Peg captures the very essence of romance in the language of love as only she knows how.  Can Pog say ‘no’ to the angelic vision of Peg as he regains consciousness (among the roses)?

Of course, the only response he can offer is that of a gentleman, “Yes, thank you very much.”  Pog feels an overwhelming urge of love for the angel who appears before him.

Such sensitivity!  Such insight!  The wonder and mystery that overtakes Peg and Pog must be romance.  Feelings of ecstasy, unconditional love and joy as two souls reach out to each other and meld together in harmony!

What Peg actually says to Pog is not important.  For Pog, the message is clear and he is excited.  That is all that matters.  The language of love is indeed powerful and potent.  It sweeps all concerns away and, as Pog finds out, it can snap a bloke from a dazed state to full alertness in a moment!

Personal Wedding Vows

Words for Personal Wedding Vows

Would you like to make your personal wishes for your partner and your married life?  Many couples make personal vows to each other in their wedding ceremony.  Sometimes both parties write their ‘individual’ vows and sometimes they ‘share’ a common vow.

personal wedding vows booklets and wedding ceremony scroll

Personal Wedding Vows

By far the most popular personal vows are individual vows.

Quite often the words in the vows are kept ‘secret’ from the other party until the wedding day!

Don’t know where to start with your vows?  Yes, I help you write your personal wedding vows!

Presentation is important, especially on your wedding day!  As Brisbane’s Really Good Celebrant, I attend to the details that make all the difference.  I match the colours for the vow booklet graphics and decorations with your chosen wedding colours.

Contact me for delightful personal wedding vow booklets for your wedding ceremony!

Wishes and Words for Personal Wedding Vows

Wishes and words for personal wedding vows come from the heart.  They express your personal hopes, dreams and values for your marriage.  Choose the words that you and your partner understand and appreciate.  After all, they are your words.

Have fun with your vows!  Use words that you like and that you understand.  The only rule to follow is: “Vows are respectful.”  Apply this rule to everyone involved in your wedding ceremony and your guests.  Think about the people who will hear you say your vows and ask yourself this question, “Do I want them to hear these words?”  Keep the more intimate words and expressions for private conversations with your partner!

Writing Personal Vows

So you want to write your personal vows?  Make a start!  Write notes about all sorts of ideas, collect examples of vows and write something that you feel is ‘right for you’.  Jot down a few points about what you bring to the marriage and what you wish for married life, then write your personal vow.

Need inspiration?  Here are some suggested links to wedding vows sites to help you get started.

Brisbane Celebrant Weds Love Ducks

Brisbane Celebrant Weds Ducks in Love

Glenda J Ashleigh, Brisbane Celebrant weds the delightful love ducks in a ‘first’ for Brisbane.  Brisbane ducks will never be the same!  These ‘luvducks’ will say ‘I do’ in the beautiful Brisbane Bayside suburb of Manly.

Brisbane Celebrant Weds Duck Bride & GroomBrisbane ducks will gather to witness the Bride & Groom being  joined for evermore in duck love.

The wedding pond is a romantic wedding venue where the Bride & Groom first found love.  The Bride & Groom will display their love with a large ‘Love’ sign.

Brisbane Celebrant, Glenda Ashleigh is very good at guiding nervous Brides & Grooms (including ducks) through their romantic wedding vows.

There will be much ‘happy flapping’ when the Groom gives the Bride an affectionate peck at the end of the ceremony.

Brisbane’s Beautiful Bayside

Duck family and friends are delighted that the two ‘luvducks’ will be wed in Brisbane’s Beautiful Bayside.

The Wynnum-Manly-Lota area on Moreton Bay has many great venues for wedding ceremonies all year round.  This suits ducks just fine as the water is never far away.  Lovely sea breezes during summer days allow ducks to relax and enjoy themselves.  Winter days by the bay are a duck’s delight with sunshine glinting on the water.

Wedding Bells – Celebrant Glenda J Ashleigh

Wedding Bells are Ringing!

wedding bells

Keepsake Bells

These darling little bells are just one of the many ideas and unique touches that I bring to the wedding ceremonies I conduct.  What do I charge for them you ask?  Nothing!  I make these little bells with love, to give them to the delighted couples who choose me as their Celebrant.

These little bells are delightful additions to the wedding ceremony scroll containing the script of the couple’s wedding ceremony.  These unique bells are special bridal favours, a special wedding keepsake for a special wedding day.

No two weddings are the same, and no two little bells are the same.  I hand-make each tiny bell with love.  The bells come in a variety of colours.  I try to match the bells to the colour range chosen for the bridal party.

These little bells are only available when couples engage me as their Celebrant.  I do not make them to sell!  They take too long to make.

Contact the Really Good Brisbane Celebrant and Let these little bells ring out the joy on your wedding day!
