End of the Season, April 2020
So last week was my ‘first week’ without a ‘ceremony’ since September. It was a surreal. I know I still had enough left in the tank to finish this season through to May, giving everything I have, but the universe had other ideas...
.
2019/2020, ‘wedding season’ (for me) ran for 30 weeks with over 70 couples. Every week, I walked out our front door (what a privilege in these times!) and was chosen to stand beside some incredible humans. Truly. I attract the most wonderful kind. You lot complete me.
.
2020/2021, please know I am going to love, connect, cuddle and laugh harder, to deliver more than I ever have. You better get ready. I’m ready to be there for my people.
.
For now, I shall do as I’m told. To sit back, pull a face and practice those #360degreesofhappy and #preceremonyvibes putting the bin out, because even that gets a ceremony these days.

WINNER Bride Choice Awards, November 2019
I was lucky enough to attend the first Brides Choices Awards held in WA and came home with two awards!
Belinda Clinton Celebrant and MC shared the stage with some amazing talent in the 'Top 10' and then took home the 'Highly Commended' Award.
For someone who speaks for a living, this left me a little speechless!
Thank you to all the couples who took the time to vote for their 'wedding supplier tribe' . You have made this celebrant a very grateful one!

Love Your Way Celebrant featured in 'Polka Dot Bride, September 2019
Australia's Premier wedding blog Polka Dot Bride has published the wedding of Rachael and Reilly in it's 'SPRING" feature. I was honoured to be their celebrant.
"The couple chose Belinda Clinton – Love Your Way to officiate their day. “Our ceremony was perfect!” remembers the bride. “We wanted a very relaxed vibe which was personal and sweet but also funny. Our celebrant, Belinda nailed it! She had everyone laughing and crying the whole time and had Reilly and me so relaxed. All of our vendors were amazing but Belinda our celebrant just felt like she was part of our family! In the planning stage, she was very straight-talking and told us (novices) what was going to work best for the ceremony and her service sounded like it was written by someone who had known us a lifetime.”

Australia Votes Yes! November 2017
Today, in world were hate is so strong, love was stronger.
Today, I watched the announcement on TV with my 5 year old daughter and 2 year old son at my feet.
Today, my happy tears are not only for the amazing couples I work with, the ones yet to come, the man I get my coffee from after a coast walk, my primary school clasmate, my colleagues, family and friends but for my children.
Today, my children live in a country that tells them who ever they choose to love, that they ...themselves are loved.
Today, I am proud to be a celebrant who supports marriage equality.
Today, I look forward to tomorrow.
