Does this sound like you? I can't express myself very well. I'm no good at writing. I'd be too embarrassed to read them in front of everyone. What's the point in sharing them with everyone?

I'm always more than thrilled to help engage couples and show them a simple way to write their very own unique and meaningful vows. And...

Whether you’re a ‘sit by the pool all day with cocktails’ or a ‘ride through rural rice fields on a scooter’ kind of couple, chances are you’re one of the 75% of people who will go on a honeymoon after your wedding. There are endless options available to you, some at astronomical price points, so how do you narrow down your destination and accommodation and even more crucially, should you go on your honeymoon straight after your wedding or wait a while?Today I’m going to share with you:p...

Being able to assert yourself ahead of time, I think is absolutely crucial.&nb...
