Thomas and Stephanie Mills, 14 March 2024

I had the privilege of officiating Steph’s sister Katie and her husband Matt’s wedding in 2017 and met Tom & Steph then as they were both in the bridal party, so when Steph contacted me asking me to be their celebrant I was so excited!

It was so cool to see Matt and Katie again too and special to have them both in the bridal party.

Baylys Farm is a beautiful wedding venue and Tom & Steph’s day was just perfect. I loved the way they included Steph’s grandparents with their son and nephews as they all ran up the aisle ahead of the bridesmaids and Katie sprinkling petals. The joy was infectious!

Their beautiful son Elijah was their ring bearer and he also received his own special ring on the day, I loved the symbolism of this, the three of them joined as one family.

Thank you again for choosing me as your Celebrant, Tom and Steph. Wishing you both a wonderful life together full of many blessings.

Strachan and Kayla McLeod, 23 March 2024

Strachan and Kayla were so cruisy and fun to work with and their ceremony was beautiful and intimate.

I loved the way they included their precious dog Molly and had both their mothers witness their marriage license.

I’m connected to Strachan and Kayla through various friends and family members and their wedding was held at a friend’s venue so connections made this ceremony even more special and fun!

Thank you again for choosing me as your Celebrant, Strachan and Kayla. Wishing you both, and Molly the dog, a wonderful life together.

Dylan and Jessica Merritt, 24 February 2024

Not even the powerful wind could stand in the way of this beautiful couple and their picturesque wedding!

Dylan and Jess were very intentional about every aspect of their ceremony and it was so special working with them.

Jess walked down the aisle to “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)” being played and sung live by my good friend Alex, it was fun getting to work with one of our mates!

Of course my amazing husband Ben was working hard doing the often unseen things to make sure the ceremony went smoothly, the wind definitely kept him busy too!

Thank you again for choosing me as your Celebrant, Dylan and Jess. Wishing you the most wonderful life together, along with your puppies of course.

Clay and Elizabeth Cranston, 25 March 2023

It’s not often you get to say you’ve married the same couple twice!

Clay and Elizabeth eloped in a family member’s backyard in December 2022 with just their immediate family present and then they had a beautiful celebration ceremony in March with all their family and friends. It was a privilege to be able to officiate both ceremonies for them.

Each ceremony was unique, raw, beautiful and family centred. I especially loved the ring warming ceremony they chose to include in their March ceremony.

Wishing you a beautiful life together Clay and Beth. Thank you for choosing me as your celebrant.

Te Puhi and Bethany Kemble-Nathan, 18 March 2023.

This was an extra special ceremony given it was my beautiful sister-in-laws special day!

My husband Ben and I officiated this ceremony together and we had so much fun. It was a beautiful day full of love, laughter and whanau.

I might be just a little biased but I’m pretty sure these are the cutest flower girls I’ve ever seen too!

We’re so glad you finally “did the thing” TP and Bethany and can’t wait to see all the adventures you will have together as husband and wife. Thank you for choosing me as your celebrant.

Aidan and Lisa Gibson, 16 January 2023.

I’ve known Lisa and her family since our preschool days living out at Poroti so when she asked me to be their wedding celebrant I was delighted to accept.

Their wedding day was a beautiful day with unique and personal elements at one of my favourite Northland venues.

I think my favourite moment was turning to the groom and saying “I think that helicopter is going to fly straight over us Aidan!” to which he turned around and saw his beautiful bride. I’m so glad we managed to keep that a surprise for the groom and the guests!

Wishing you a lifetime of happiness together Aidan and Lisa. Thank you for choosing me as your celebrant.

Sam and Samantha Rout, 8 October 2022.

When “The Sams” asked me to be their celebrant for their SURPRISE wedding ceremony I was so excited to accept.

This ceremony was extra special for so many reasons. Sam was a really good mate of my brother Mathew and I’ve known him since we were teenagers, they got married on their own beautiful property and it was a surprise as guests thought they were there to celebrate a 30th!

It was a beautiful intimate ceremony and the party afterwards was great fun!

Didn’t “girl Sam” make the most stunning bride? I loved the R.M. Williams boots she wore.

Ciara sent me these beautiful photos of my family last week and I was so excited to recieve them.

It was so special getting to marry one of my cousins to her dream guy and we loved getting to attend the wedding as a family! This was Mathea’s first wedding and I think she looked pretty cute!

A gorgeous intimate ceremony on family property. The wind was blowing a gale but nothing could stop these two from grinning with excitement!

Peter and Amy Gillard, 29 January 2022

Every couple have a beautiful and unique love story, but Pete and Amy’s tale is certainly one out of the box and their wedding day was no exception!

It was a beautiful day filled with family, friends, love and laughter.

It was so much fun being your Celebrant and I’m so glad you are both officially more than “just friends”.

Jason and Natalie Brickell, 4 December 2021.

I loved the rustic charm of this wedding and the country music playlist! It was so special to officiate Jason and Natalie’s ceremony and to see their families become one. Nothing cuter then the couple’s children bringing the wedding bands up and giving their parents a big hug.

Thank you for choosing me as your Celebrant Jason and Natalie. ❤️

Dylan and Ciara Verhees, 5 February 2022

Ciara is one of my second cousin’s and when she asked me last year if I would be their Marriage Celebrant I was so excited!

Ciara was a beautiful bride, Dylan was a handsome groom and the weather was just perfect for this amazingly detailed wedding.
