I, Jackie Brown, your future celebrant, stand unapologetically here today to deliver a short manifesto.

Promise #1: A Revolution in Ceremony I solemnly swear to craft a ceremony where your love takes centre stage, and conformity takes a hike. No cookie-cutter weddings here folks!

Promise #2: A Love Letter to Equality Equality is not negotiable, and I pledge to honour every partnership, regardless of gender or identity. Your wedding will be a radiant tribute to love that knows no bounds.

Promise #3: A Celebration Beyond Norms Let's toss outdated norms out the window and embrace a wedding that is pure, unfiltered YOU. Whether it's an extravagant gala or an intimate picnic, your celebration will mirror your wildest dreams and your most cherished values.

Promise #4: Laughter as Resistance In the face of seriousness, we will choose joy! I promise to infuse your ceremony with laughter and lightness.

Promise #5: Amplified Voices Your love story deserves a spotlight, and I'm here to lift it high. Your ceremony will be a stage for your voices, your tales, your affirmations – a place where your stories become your anthems.

Promise #6: Inclusivity As Our North Star From cultural traditions to spiritual beliefs, I pledge to honour and respect your diversity.

Promise #7: We Will Rock You Expect goosebumps, tears, and a boatload of laughter. I promise a ceremony that's as moving as a TED talk and as fun as a dance party.

Promise #8: We Stand In Solidarity I'll stand with you in solidarity, because your love isn't just a hashtag — it's a movement. I'm here to help you celebrate the ACTUAL power of love, one wedding at a time.

Promise #9: I’ll Be Your YAS gal I’m not just your officiant; I am your cheerleader! In a world where the statistics often don’t look great for those of us wanting a “lifelong love”, I want your marriage to be one of the lasting ones! I will provide you with access to resources and support before and after the “hell yeah’s”, from suggestions of pre-marriage counselling services, through to “day after” recovery plan ideas.

Promise #10: A Friendship Beyond Ceremony Our connection doesn't end at the "I do." Long after the confetti settles, I'll be here, a friend and confidante, cheering for your love story and your life's adventures.

So, lovers, the question is: are you ready to embrace the extraordinary?

Love, always

Jackie x
