On Sunday 2nd November 2008, Katrina & Marcus married in a beautiful and intimate ceremony on Watego’s Beach in Byron Bay. Our wedding bells rang out as Katrina, her father and the bridesmaids walked past the bells to the path that would take them onto the soft sand of Watego’s Beach to join her husband to be.
The gathered family and friends formed an aisle-way on the beach for Katrina and her wedding party to walk along, creating a very moving moment. All the while, the wedding bells pealed out to greet them, only stopping as the bride met her groom and the noted local celebrant, Zenith Virago.
At the end of the ceremony, with the sound of the Pacific Ocean in the background, the wedding bells pealed again joyously to celebrate Katrina & Marcus becoming man and wife.
A wedding to remember.

Saturday 11th October was a rainy and fairly overcast day. But nothing could take the shine off the wedding of Krystal and Tim’s wedding at Coolibah Downs in Nerang (Gold Coast). This is a lovely venue for a wedding, picture perfect grounds and a great reception area.
We greeted Krystal’s arrival in a horse drawn carriage at the beautiful stone chapel with a heart stirring wedding peal of bells. She looked absolutely stunning!
After the romantic and intimate ceremony, the wedding bells pealed again joyously to announce them as man and wife.
A gorgeous way to start married life! Congratulations to Krystal and Tim from the team at Bellistic Celebrations.

A great time was had by all who attended the inaugural Lismore Wedding Expo, held at the Turf Club on Woodlawn Road on Sunday 24th August. The weather was very kind to us, a lovely, almost spring day that brought lots of brides, grooms and families out to view the exhibitors.
We were outside the main expo building, positioned on the manicured lawns that are also the location for Wedding ceremonies at the Turf Club. This allowed us to showcase our beautiful wedding bells and to play not only the traditional wedding peal but also some of the other tunes that we have available. A crowd favourite was “Can’t Help Falling in Love” along with “Love me Tender” and “Unforgettable”.
NBN News recorded the wedding bells and used them in their feature on the expo that was aired in the 6 o’clock news that night. We hope you saw it, but for those of you who missed it, we’ve included a link below to the NBN site.
We understand that the Lismore Turf Club collected a good sum (entry to the expo was a gold coin) of money which will be donated to the Cancer Council. A very good cause indeed.
It was lovely to meet so many nice people at the expo, please get in touch with us if you’d like some further information on how we can help make your wedding day, just that bit more special!

Bells at Byron Bay Lighthouse 18th July 2008
Friday 18th July was a spectacular winter’s day and the evening was even better. As the sun sank behind Mt Warning, the moon rose over the ocean and the bells rang out with “Happy Birthday”!
We were at Cape Byron Lighthouse to celebrate the 70th birthday of the winner of a competition draw that we held on Bay FM in April this year. A more beautiful evening could not be imagined. The sound of the bells, resonating over the light breeze and out to sea, created a magical moment for everyone to hear.

Sunday 1st June 2008 was a rainy autumn day, but for those who attended the Summerland Sunrise Rotary Bridal Expo at the Workers Club in Goonellebah it was the perfect opportunity to plan their wedding day.
Almost 200 people visited the many exhibitors which included marriage celebrants, wedding dresses, hats and veils, wedding limousines, balloons, florists, wedding cakes, stationery and reception venues. There was some beautiful jewellery on display as well as experts in makeup/ cosmetics to ensure that the bridal party look their absolute best on the day. Hope I haven’t missed anyone out!
The Wedding Bells were positioned just outside the expo doors so that our beautiful bells could be heard ringing by all who attended. Interest was very high as mobile bells are such a new concept and everyone we spoke to agreed that they really add a special touch of romance to weddings.
So, if you were one of the attendees, it was lovely to meet you and hope that your wedding day is the most memorable day in your life. And that we are there to share it with you!!
Don’t forget, all bookings that are made from seeing us at the expo in Goonellebah will be at the special price given on the day. Get in quick though as we only have one bell unit and we are filling our diary fast.

We’ve just attended 2 major Bridal Expo’s, the first being at the Gold Coast Arts Centre on 13th January and the second at Ballina RSL on 16th March.
The Ballina Expo had over 700 visitors on the day, all of whom would have heard our bells ringing from the carpark on Richmond.
An expo is a great way to see and hear us if you get the chance.
We’ll update our site with details of upcoming events on a regular basis.

Welcome to our first news update!
Since arriving in Byron Bay late in 2007, we’ve been busy with lots of different events and we thought you might find some of them interesting.
Just before Christmas 2007, we were delighted to take part in the ceremony for the lighting up of the Byron Bay Christmas tree that was sponsored by our local business group, Byron United.
We played lots of Christmas Carols in the lead up to Santa arriving on a motor cycle. The kids in particular went crazy!
After the success of that, we were invited to help celebrate at the Bangalow Show where the theme was “It’s almost Christmas”.
We were seen driving into the Bangalow showgrounds, merrily playing Jingle Bells whilst the local police paddy wagon followed, all lights flashing.
When we arrived in the centre, Santa and Mrs Claus emerged from the paddy wagon to the delight of young and old.
Next was Carols by the Sea in Byron Bay which was the first time the event was held in the park opposite the Beach Hotel.
Here we played all the well known Christmas songs such as Jingle Bells, Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, Deck the halls, amongst others. A fine night was had by all who attended.
On a final Christmas note, we opened the proceedings at the Bangalow Street party on Christmas Eve.
