Monash Celebrants always aim for their ceremonies to begin well, but one of our members says it would not have been possible to plan a better start than this.
The wedding was a small one in the garden of a family home. The couple had obviously tried to explain to their 3 year old daughter what ‘getting married’ meant, but perhaps with only partial success. As the ceremony was about to begin she called out to her mother “Mummy, am I going to marry a Prince?” “Yes dear” was the reassuring reply. “When?” “When you’re older dear”. The three year old looked down at her lovely new dress and then, almost in tears, at her Mum; “But my dress won’t fit”.
It was a truly delightful way to begin a wonderful family celebration.
