Tim and Aden - style meets chic at this longsong wedding.
It was an honour to be Tim and Aden’s Celebrant and MC.
In so many ways Tim and Aden are my perfect couple…
The brief was beautiful, stylish, thoughtful and considered. They wanted to celebrate their lives, bring in their loves, and celebrate up big time. They also happened to hire one of my all time GOAT photographers, Miranda Stokkel, and florist Tweed Twigs. And while it was my first time working at Longsong, I can’t wait to be back there soon.
Pre-ceremony Tim and Aden celebrated with their wedding party listening to great music, having a little drink and getting their portraits taken by Miranda. This was essential as their wedding turned into the party of the century mere moments after their were pronounced married. They had two of Melbournes queer scene preformers give once in a lifetime shows - with Bendy Ben preform a cake sitting and Sam T opening the dancefloor.
More weddings like this please! More queer joy, and definitely more fun for everyone.
Happy pride month x

What they had to say
“From the moment we engaged her, and continuing now long after the big day, Precious has been the ultimate professional but also feels like a long lost friend. She was engaged, excited and supportive through every step of our wedding journey. Far over and above what we might have expected for our celebrant. Not only did she curate a ceremony that was warm, joyful and very “us”, she took all of the stress out of the day by being our amazing MC as well. We loved her! Guests loved her! No question was too tedious and, if there were hiccups on the day, we don’t know about them because Precious handled them so well!
Precious is devilishly funny and with a smile that enters the room before her, she made us so comfortable through the whole process. The ultimate hypegirl! She was good for style tips; she was great for tips on how to navigate family tensions; she was excellent for tweaking the runsheet so that the guest experience was prioritised. This lady knows what she’s doing, and does it so well! Precious even helped one of our vendors secure staging for their performance! As we said, above and beyond!
If we could do it all over again, we would pick Precious every time.
With love and admiration,
Aden + Tim”
