Emily and Rafael's Sydney harbour-side wedding

The threat of rain didn't dampen the spirits at Emily and Rafael's gorgeous harbour-side wedding in Mosman, Sydney. The handsome groom was excited and a tad nervous waiting for his gorgeous bride to arrive. Her stunning entry down the steps of Bradley's Head Amphitheatre.



 

Bradley's Head Amphitheatre is one of my favourite wedding venues in Sydney. Access can be a little tricky with limited on-site parking, but the dramatic harbour views are well worth the effort. The sloped, grassy amphitheatre is surrounded by bushland and cliffs, providing a very intimate and private location - the perfect spot for a Sydney wedding. Wedding guests face the sparkling blue harbour (almost at water-level) and look out at passing boats and iconic views of the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge.


The ceremony went off without a hitch. Emily and Rafael chose lovely readings and lots of personal details that had guests laughing and crying. The couple exchanged bi-lingual vows as a nod to their cultural backgrounds. They memorised their vows flawlessly and the rain held off to create a perfect day all around. 

 The newlyweds were thrilled with the customised ceremony that Modern Sydney Celebrant Laura Craddock created especially for them. 
"We really appreciate all of your hard work and assistance in making our special day truly beautiful"

Not even rain could dampen Clare and Arron's spirits when they got married at Dunbar House, Watson's Bay. The happy couple celebrated many years of love and friendship, whilst also making a commitment to share their future together. They were thrilled with the personalised ceremony created by their celebrant, Laura Craddock. "[Laura] I can't even properly articulate just how absolutely ecstatic Arron and I were with how the ceremony ran, and the integral part that you played on our special day. Thank you for helping us create a ceremony that was intimate, special and absolutely suited our personalities and tastes. We are beyond lucky to have stumbled across you on a vague google search and honestly feel like we were 'meant' to find you because you were exactly what we had been looking for in a celebrant. Not only did you help me through the ceremony through my nerves (and fetching me water!) but also beforehand when Arron and I were quite nervous

When will same-sex marriage be made legal in Australia?

Image
Same-sex marriage will soon be legal in Australia Australian Parliament is currently debating changes to the Marriage Act 1961,  which would allow same-sex couples to marry in Australia 2018. This follows a resounding 'yes' vote in the 2017 plebiscite on Marriage Equality. The contentious postal vote revealed that 61.6% of Australians believe same-sex marriage should be legalised. Prime minister Malcolm Turnbull has pledged that parliament will vote on the issue of marriage equality before Christmas. Changes to the Marriage Act 1961 will need to be passed in the House of Representatives and the Senate. The earliest same-sex marriage could be ratified and accepted into law would be December 8, but there are no concrete timeframes in place and it coule be much later. ​ Once same-sex weddings are made legal, LGBTI couples will first need to lodge a Notice Of Intended Marriage with their celebrant in order to be able to marry. There is then a minimum one-m
