Tomorrow is never promised to anyone......go tell your Dad what he really means to you!

Texts........emails............cards being opened..............telephone calls..............visits!

Today............thousands of Dad's around the country will be smiling through Father's Day!

Your Dad is special..............He's unique................He's a one off.  How about ringing him or telling him face to face, just how much he means to you.  It's not as easy as writing a card or sending a text.............but he'll remember it more!

One day, you won't be able to do that.



And remember.  Just around the corner, there's someone who'd like to give their Dad a huge hug.  But they can only remember him.

Life is a privilege.  Tomorrow is never promised to anyone.

Be in the moment with your Dad!

Why I'm not afraid to ask the difficult questions!

"That's a hard one.......!"

Pause....................Silence................Looks upwards........................Looks outside..............Looks to the floor.

When I'm designing ceremonies with families and couples, I'm not afraid to dig deep and ask the hard and difficult, searching questions.  They're the ones that bring you to a sudden halt.......and stop and make you think!  And inevitably, they bring out some amazing answers..........and that all leads to wonderfully creative ceremonies.
 
Here's an example.

"How do you both like spending your spare time?".....is an easy question that gives easy answers.

"When time is your own.........what makes you laugh out loud.....cry with laughter..........or smile from the heart?" .......is a difficult question that really makes you think.  
 
Chances are.........it also takes you much longer to answer the question....but that's OK - the answer is worth waiting for!

If you're happy to let me provoke your thoughts......and use your answers to create unique ceremonies.........then we're a fit!
