Based in North Canterbury, I offer professional celebrant services for couples seeking a ceremony that’s personal, meaningful, heartfelt, and truly memorable. Let’s work together to create a day that reflects your story—beautifully and authentically."
Creating meaningful, personalised services that truly reflect and celebrate the life, values, and legacy of your loved one. With empathy and professionalism, I work closely with families to craft a ceremony that honours not just the life lived, but the impact left behind—offering a space for remembrance, connection, and healing.
For couples who want less fuss, more heart. This is the perfect option for a small, intimate wedding, a relaxed elopement, or a beautiful ceremony right at home. It’s simple, elegant, and focused entirely on what matters most—your love and your vows. You’ll have a thoughtfully crafted script, with room to make it your own. Want to write your own vows? Absolutely. Want to keep it short and meaningful? Done. Includes one planning meeting (online or in-person). This is love, your way—beautifully simple, deeply sincere.
A fully personalised wedding ceremony that reflects your story, your values, and your vision. This package is for couples who want a ceremony that feels deeply personal and thoughtfully crafted from beginning to end. From your first ideas to the final "I do," I’ll be by your side to guide, inspire, and support. We’ll begin with a meeting—online or in person—where we’ll explore what matters most to you both.
Whether you’re full of ideas or not sure where to start, I’ll offer suggestions for structure, tone, readings, music, and how to weave your story into something truly unforgettable. Need help with your vows? I offer gentle guidance, inspiration, or hands-on support to help you express your promises with clarity and heart. A further meeting is included during the planning phase to check in, finalise details, and ensure you’re feeling confident and supported.
In the week leading up to your wedding, I’ll be available to walk through final details, answer questions, calm nerves, and make sure everything feels just right—from the flow of the ceremony to those often-overlooked finishing touches. I’ll also liaise with your venue and be there on the day to ensure everything runs smoothly, so you can focus on what matters: being fully present in the moment. This is more than a ceremony—it’s a celebration of everything that brought you here, and everything you’re stepping into together.
Love is love - I am committed to inclusivity, equality, and the celebration of all loving partnerships, including LGBTQ+ marriages.
A Celebration of Life service is a meaningful opportunity to reflect, remember, and honour the life of your loved one in a personal and heartfelt way. Every ceremony is unique, shaped by the life and legacy they’ve left behind. The process begins with a meeting—either in person or online—where we’ll respectfully explore your vision for the service.
Together, we’ll discuss how you would like to remember your loved one and what you wish to include—be it music, meaningful readings, or heartfelt eulogies shared by family and friends. Every detail is carefully considered to ensure the ceremony reflects the individual being honoured. This conversation provides space to share stories, memories, and wishes, helping to shape a ceremony that is deeply personal and comforting. Throughout the planning process, I remain available for ongoing communication and support online—so you're never alone in making these important decisions.
If you are planning your own service in advance, or considering a living funeral, it would be my privilege to walk alongside you in that process. Together, we can create a ceremony that feels right for you—something you’ll feel at peace with, and something your loved ones will find meaning and connection in. Whether intimate or more expansive, I’ll guide and support you with compassion, professionalism, and genuine care—ensuring the service becomes a lasting and cherished tribute.
Whether you're honouring a life or celebrating love, I’m here to help you create a ceremony that feels true to you.
