Personalised weddings
A personalised ceremony you can have anywhere you and your celebrant agree upon. You can write your own vows and design your order of service with your celebrant. The number of guests is only limited by your budget, venue and preference.
An increasingly popular choice is an elopement wedding. This can range from just the two of you, a photographer, one other witness, as well as your celebrant; to a cozy group of guests, family members (including two witnesses) and celebrant.
If you are interested in a package get in touch with me so we can talk through your requirements and wishes.
Destination weddings
A destination wedding is all about gathering your loved ones in a beautiful location away from home, creating not just a ceremony but an unforgettable shared experience. Taupō is a perfect choice for this – nestled in the heart of Aotearoa, it offers breathtaking views of the lake and mountains, world-class venues, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Whether couples dream of a lakeside ceremony, a forest backdrop, or a luxurious lodge celebration, Taupō combines natural beauty with excellent hospitality, making it an exceptional destination for saying “I do.”
If you’d love your wedding to be part of a bigger adventure, let’s explore some of the amazing activities Taupō has to offer before, during, or after your ceremony. From cycling trails and forest hikes to lake cruises or even a scenic flight to your dream location, we can weave in experiences that make your celebration truly unique to you.
If this feels like the kind of wedding you’re dreaming of, I’d love to help bring it to life - please get in touch to start the conversation.
Registry weddings
Only a VCANZ celebrant conducts a registry wedding. You can have a similar ceremony which is more personal, often referred to as an elopement wedding.

A registry ceremony has a set cost and standardised vows. You also must have it on a weekday and not a public holiday.
Funeral Celebrant
A funeral celebrant is a qualified individual who works with a family to conduct a ceremony tailored to the beliefs, values, and desires of a deceased individual and his or her immediate family members.
Beyond weddings, I also guide families through farewells and celebrations of life.
These moments are tender and sacred, and I approach them with compassion, patience, and a deep respect for the stories and wishes of both the departed and their loved ones.
If you’d like gentle support in planning a farewell, please feel free to get in touch with me.
