Well, I can genuinely say that life has passed by way too fast. My baby is all grown up and she is getting married to an amazing man who I am so glad to welcome in to our family.
I can distinctly remember the day Georgia was born and have loved having her and her three siblings in my life. She and they have made life so enjoyable and brought me so much pleasure. Sometimes families disagree but love is constant and I love them all. I know that Georgia and Lachlan's future will be filled with happiness and joy. A couple like them deserve only the best in life and their passion and warmth will be rewarded.
Have spent today walking around Brisbane City, visited museum, GOME, botanical gardens and have really warmed to this wonderful city.
Am so excited for Monday. In fact am excited to join the bunch at Dutton Street Hawthorne on Saturday.
To love is a gift and to be loved is the greatest gift someone can give to another.

]]><![CDATA[Lets get married]]>Fri, 22 Nov 2019 01:34:07 GMThttp://www.catrinamain.com/blog/lets-get-marriedWe are so very lucky to live in amazing Perth. Being a Civil Marriage Celebrant I get the opportunity to see so much of this great city and the surrounding country. Love has no boundaries and I think there should be no boundaries associated with weddings. There are so many options available to couples for their wedding day and so many options for the ceremony that can be created. I think that is what I love about being a celebrant.
Gillian and Cris planned a bush wedding but luckily plan B was available because the weather had other ideas for them on their special day, so Cris's amazing arbour was erected in the local hall and we had a beautiful ceremony in doors after braving gale force winds outside!........congratulations to as beautiful couple.

Using poetry and phrases can elicit that feeling of love, a lot of it springing from the ways of Shakespeare.........How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. or as Paul Kelly says"When you do nice things to me all heaven shuts down" As a Marriage Celebrant my job is to put words and meaning into verses that are my couples story.....and I love the opportunity to create.

Getting married in Perth Western Australia opens up so many opportunities. When love conquers all and you decide to tie the knot ( Celtic hand fasting ceremony by the way) there are so many choices of venue. Being an authorised civil marriage celebrant allows me to see so many of these.
Being  marriage celebrant allows me to put into words what you feel about each other, where you want to go and here you have been together.
"Sooner or Later" – Anonymous
Sooner or later we begin to understand that love is more than verses on valentines, and romance in the movies. We begin to know that love is here and now, real and true, the most important thing in our lives. For love is the creator of our favourite memories and the foundation of our fondest dreams. Love is a promise that is always kept, a fortune that can never be spent, a seed that can flourish in even the most unlikely of places. And this radiance that never fades, this mysterious and magical joy, is the greatest treasure of all -- one known only by those who love.
