I'm the chap in the photo trying to look all meaningful, I am but it's really hard to capture in a photo!!
My background is in presenting, which I've been doing professionally for the past 25 years.
This has involved writing scripts for all manner of programmes, that's why it's been an easy transition to use my skillset in becoming a celebrant.
I love meeting new people and listening to their story, how they came to be, where they are now and what love means to them. To then put all their stories together and share it with the wedding guests is a privilege. To see everyone engaging with the words but more importantly feel what the two people in question mean to each other melts me every time.
At heart I'm a hopeless romantic and it's pretty normal for me to shed a tear at the joy that is you and your beloved.
