Married By Friends

I have worked as a celebrant since 2017 & have been in the events industry for over a decade. Over this time, I have learnt a trick or two for ensuring your ceremony runs smoothly, where the best seat is for mum to sit - so she can see your gorgeous face (and not just the back of your head), and ways to help you relax and enjoy the ceremony - no matter how nervous you may feel! I grew up in Wanaka and am a true local - I know the area, and the people, like the back of my hand. Should any problems arise that you need a local to sort out, or you are just after some advice, tips or recommendations - I am more than happy to assist. I strive to ensure your ceremony is meaningful; full of love, joy & laughter. I am genuinely excited to be part of your special day, and that is why it is so important to me to make sure your ceremony is heartfelt and engaging, that it reflects your personality, your sense of humour and your love for one another. Each ceremony is written from scratch - that’s how they are guaranteed to reflect who you are and your story! Kids and animals are all welcome here. and if you would like to include them in your ceremony, I can’t wait to assist with finding ways to do so. When not at a wedding, you will find me at a beach, a campground, on top of a mountain or simply out exploring Wanaka's nature playground - with my son Noah & puppy Corona in tow.
