Recently a couple asked me to marry them and l said no.
Not because they don’t love each other – they clearly do.
Not because they wouldn't make good parents - they already have two beautiful sons.
Not because they don’t suit, get along, work well or complement each other -
since everyone that knows them would say they are perfect together.
I had to say no because their union is not recognised in Australia.

Instead, we planned a commitment ceremony for Tanya and Jilda with all the features of a wedding
It was amazing and a highlight of my 2015.
Both of their father’s health’s had deteriorated over the past year and they had always dreamed of
their dads walking them down the aisle...
and they did!
They wanted their boys to take part in the ceremony and witness their commitment....
and they did!
It was their wish to declare, in front of their family and friends, that they wanted to be together forever....
and they did!
The plan was to party into the night at the Brighton Savoy and celebrate their love...
and they did!

When Australia finally catches up with the rest of the world, we will make Jilda and Tanya’s marriage legal (it’s a free service l offer all my same-sex unions) but for now, we can say they got hitched and they DID IT with class & style.
Congratulations Jilda and Tanya xx
