This page contains a log of SOME of the highly talented vendors I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with during my years as a wedding celebrant. If you’re looking for inspiration, check them out as I can recommend them all!
There are many many more out there – these are just a sampling!!
I’ve also created a wedding song playlist on YouTube and a Spotify Wedding Ceremony playlist in case you need any ideas!
