Introducing a new contributor – Kathryn Breusch – marriage celebrant


Kathryn Breusch has been a marriage celebrant for four years and, herself, married for fourteen. She understands, from a personal and professional perspective the excitement and (sometimes) anxiety of organising and executing a wedding day. She treasures her role as a celebrant which comes across when facilitating a relaxed, respectful and sincere ceremony.

Spring is a beautiful time of year to be married. It symbolises budding ‘newness’, growth and foundation for future ‘seasons’. Involving your guests creates some great ideas for this colourful time of year. You may like to invite some or all of them to bring a flower and place it around you both during the ceremony or collect your vibrant bouquet as you’re walking down the ‘isle’. Remember, being the most significant part of your wedding day, your ceremony is a sacred and important rite of passage. It is a fabulous declaration of your love for one other shared with your family and friends.

Kathryn includes with warmth, passion and vibrancy, a collection of suggested words and ideas to help you create a personal ceremony that reflects your individuality.

One of Kathryn’s favourite poems

Captain Corelli's Mandolin an excerpt from Louis de Bernieres
Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides.
And when it subsides you have to make a decision.
You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part.
Because this is what love is.
Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of eternal passion.
That is just being "in love" which any fool can do.
Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.
Those that truly love, have roots that grow towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.
