Elise and Amanda contacted me a year before the date they had chosen for their Commitment Ceremony, and over the months, we worked together to craft a ceremony which expressed their ideals, and was true to them as a couple. They told me they were having the ceremony in a house in Leura, and with just close family present - including a couple of newborns. It truly was a family day with their parents, brothers and sisters, and the little ones of course. Both women were escorted by their father to the ceremony spot, and all the parents gave their blessing to the union as part of the ceremony. Both of their mothers gave a reading during the ceremony. It was a day of laughter and tears of joy.
I love working in our beautiful Blue Mountains and the house they rented,
Ellengowan , was just stunning and perfect for this occasion. Amanda and Elise were just a joy to meet, to get to know a little, and to conduct their heart-felt ceremony. I truly feel privileged to have been a part of such a special day in their lives. Their photographs were taken by
Rachel H Photography - I think she did a great job!
