There are only a few people in the world who can confide in 10,000 celebrants reading an email that they’re spending a bit too much time with a long plastic device and expect no one to raise an eyebrow – and I’m happy to be that person.
My name is Josh Withers. I am obsessed with audio at weddings, and in the absence of a normal wedding industry, I’ve sunk my teeth into that this month. Welcome to your monthly Celebrant Institute email, written from an Airbnb in Melbourne before a Wednesday wedding. I hope this month’s articles are helpful to you.
Remember, if you're a paid member, you can ask any and all questions about celebrancy at celebrant.institute/ask anytime about anything.
- I have a new favourite microphone, and wedding videographers will like it as well. It records everything it hears in the highest quality audio!
- Are you comfortable talking about your price when blogs and couples ask?
- Is your website doing your sales for you like it should? Here are the five laws a wedding celebrant's website should obey.
- The best marketing meets people where they’re at. As we navigate this quiet and weird year for the wedding industry, consider where your couples are at when they enquire.
- The Wed.co podcast boys interviewed me about my celebrancy practice, PA systems, and letting videographers tap into them. It’s a good listen or watch.
- Anka asked about how Australian celebrants do international weddings.
- Libby asked about how to do a non-legal commitment ceremony.
- Did I mention how excited I was about a microphone? Want to hear how it sounds? Here’s what it sounds like in a wedding ceremony.
