Chris & Claire
5th August 2023
Eccleston Village Hall, Nr Manchester
Wherever you were in, or out of the country this time last week, you MUST have heard the whooping and clapping, whistling and cheering for the gorgeous Chris and Claire as the rafters were lifted!
I originally met Chris and Claire in August 2019 and we prepared for their wedding ceremony in Burnsall Village Hall for August 2020.
We all know what scuppered that plan and in these past action-packed 4 years, this incredible couple have moved back home after living in Kuala Lumpa, welcomed their two beautiful children AND navigated the pandemic which resulted in 2 postponed weddings.
Resilience in spades!
Energy ⚡
Perseverance ⚡
Determination ⚡
Plus a good few edits and amendments to their unique ceremony to reflect their lives as things changed.
But they did it and did it in style and with joy.
A fabulous community celebration where everyone helped and was involved… It was one giant house party.
Look at little T’s face as he places the cord over his mummy and daddy’s hands along with C and S.
Many CONGRATULATIONS to Mr & Mrs. S & family and thank you for choosing me to be the Elegant Celebrant at YOUR service! 💕
My favourite part of this wedding ceremony
Chris leading everyone in a singalong! “… Crazy little thing called love”
What a belter of a tune! Written by the inimitable Freddie Mercury, what a phenomenal choice and boy, oh boy, did Chris & Claire (and little P!) get their guests bopping and singing in the aisles! Nobody could stand still and the volume just built and built followed by clapping and the overwhelming “feel good” factor which happens when groups of people sing together.
Well-led, Chris 🎸🎼🎸
I will ALWAYS think of you and Claire when I hear this song. 👏
It all added to the joy and happiness of your wedding day and I know that the stage@ecclestonvillagehall will have been utilised to the max throughout your awesome day!
What song would YOU choose for a communal singalong on Your wedding day?
Then ❤️ Now ❤️ Forever

We did it! We did because of you and all of the help, support, encouragement and patience that you showed us throughout all of our re-arrangements for our big day.
We could not have asked for a more wonderful celebrant.
We consider you as our family friend. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
