I’ve done lots of same sex weddings, LGBTQ and gay ceremonies. None have been as audacious as the one I did for Shamus and Tim.

In most ceremonies I’m flanked by flower bouquets, bow ties, and bridesmaids. You know – the usual wedding paraphernalia.

This one had prostate ticklers, Pitbull harnesses and a fella in a gimp mask.

I was decked out in an outfit taking its cues from the cop from the Village People.

I had an absolute ball.

In many ways Shamus and Tim’s wedding typifies why I became a celebrant in the first place. I love the personality that people bring to their wedding.

And I love being adaptable to that. I’m a straight celebrant. A gay celebrant. A same sex celebrant. A celebrant for those tiptoeing between the cracks.

It especially typifies why I started Pimp My Celebrant – a service which lets couples choose exactly what they want me to wear.

Shamus and Tim took FULL advantage of this feature. It’s even inspired a brand-new outfit – Mr Yum.

I got a magnificent insight into the type of people Shamus and Tim are; two amazing guys with massive hearts looking to have a wedding done their way. In their style.

I got a great insight into their welcoming, friendly culture, too.

And if I get the opportunity to do another wedding like this again, I’ll leap at the chance.

With love and LOLs,
