There is absolutely no way we could have hoped for a better celebrant!!! What a wonderful person you are Pamela and what an amazing job you did for us!!! If you are looking for a celebrant that will go beyond her duties for you on your big day, look no further than Pamela Sheedy! Just to explain why we feel this way... both my partner and I are French and we had family coming all the way from France for our wedding. Pamela asked us to teach her some French so our family could be part of the ceremony. Our family was over the moon when they heard her speak so much French!!! Also, on the day, we ended up having that shocking wind at the beach. Pamela kept smiling, such a pro, laughing with us sometimes at the craziness of the situation. She knew how important that place was for us and she kept the show going despite the cold. Everybody found her absolutely sensational !!! Thank you so much Pamela for making this day so special for us and our family and friends, Aussies and Frenchies!

We were interstate and she was very helpful. She went above and beyond to help us despite the distance. On the day she was great. I was very nervous and she really helped calm my nerves and gave me tips on what to do!

She was brilliant. Easy to get a hold of in the lead up. Not a problem. She was excellent. A very easy person to get along with.

Who writes the vows? Do we say them or have to repeat after the celebrant?

Pamela Sheedy

I always encourage my couples to write their own vows, they are promises you are making to each other, and as such are really personal.  I do handout a guide with some helpful ideas so they have some idea of what to say and how to craft their vows.  If they are unable to express themselves I ask them for some of the reasons they love this person and want to marry them, and what  promises they would like to make to their partner, then I put all of that together and present it to them for their approval. Because they are so personal - unless they have problems speaking or reading- I print the vows up on cards and hand them to the couple at the appropriate time. Also, I stand away from them so their guests and the photographer can get a clear shot of just the two of them.

Hope this helps – happy writing.

Which is the bride's side and which is the groom's side?

Is this still a thing? Obvious not for same sex couples, but still

Pamela Sheedy

Traditionally, the groom is on the left with the bride on the right, however, these days it really depends on the site, where the sun and the wind are, and what the couple prefers. I never stand between my B&G always to the side, and when they say their vows right out of the way.

How should I let a friend know that she's not included in my bridal party?

We haven't been close for years but she has only a few other friends and had an expectation that she would be included as a bridesmaid. She found out through one of the bridesmaids that we had already gone looking for dresses, and she said she was devastated because she wanted to come (although we had never talked about it!). We are having a super intimate wedding and only inviting our family and closest friends - everyone else seems to have picked up on it but I'm so worried that she'll be hurt when she finds out she's not invited to the wedding itself! Your advice is appreciated!

Pamela Sheedy

Honesty is always the best policy, tell her how many bridesmaids you will be having, explain that owing to the fact you are limited by family restrictions/financial reasons etc, it is just not possible. Also let her know you are surprised by her expectation, because the two of you never ever discussed her being a bridesmaid.
