Ceremony

Choices

Your wedding ceremony sets the tone for everything that follows.

Some couples want something beautifully simple, while others want a more nuanced, deeply personal ceremony that evolves into a big celebration of their love.
Below are the different ways we can create something that feels just right for you.

Sign & Dash

$200+gst

A simple meeting to complete the legal side of getting married.

We meet briefly (often over coffee or a cocktail!) with two witnesses, say the legal wording required by New Zealand law, sign the marriage license, and you’re officially married. 

Perfect for couples who simply want to take care of the legal paperwork.

Sweet & Simple

$450+gst

A beautiful pre-written ceremony designed for intimate elopements and small weddings of up to 20 people.

Warm, meaningful, and thoughtfully crafted, this option is perfect for couples who want something lovely and heartfelt without the complexity of a fully customised script and a large wedding celebration.

All the magic of a wedding ceremony … just beautifully simple.

Signature Ceremony

$750+gst

A personalised ceremony thoughtfully crafted around your story.

We’ll meet to talk about your relationship, your journey together, and the tone you’d love for your ceremony. From there, I’ll create a ceremony that reflects who you are as a couple – relaxed, authentic and absolutely beautiful.

Includes:

  • A planning meeting to explore your story and vision for your ceremony
  • A personalised ceremony script created just for you.
  • A vast selection of vow choices and / or guidance for writing your own 
  • Suggestions on meaningful ceremony elements if you’d like to include them for that extra bit of magic

A beautiful option for couples who want an exquisite personal ceremony.

Ultimate Ceremony Experience

$950+gst

My most popular choice for couples, a deeply personal ceremony, beautifully written to capture your unique love story. Together we’ll create a ceremony that feels meaningful, memorable and completely true to you.

Includes:

  • In-depth planning meetings
  • Beautifully personalized ceremony with unlimited editing
  • Two complimentary individual half-hour vow coaching sessions 

*Suggestions on meaningful ceremony elements if you’d like to include them for that extra bit of magic  

  • Unlimited edits, guidance and support until your wedding is complete.

A ceremony that feels deeply personal and worthy of the moment you are celebrating. We leave no stone unturned in ensuring that when you walk back down the aisle together … you know you just had the ceremony of your dreams. 

Add to your ceremony experience

Many couples choose to add one or more of the following options to create an even more relaxed and seamless wedding day.

Vow Coaching & Delivery

$200+gst

If you’d like extra support with your vows, we can work together to shape something heartfelt, personal and authentic.

In a relaxed one-hour session we’ll talk about your relationship and what you’d love to say to your partner. I can either guide you step-by-step in writing your own vows, or craft beautifully written vows for you to deliver with confidence on the day.

Reception MC

$650+gst

Many couples love having the same person guide both their ceremony and reception, creating a natural sense of flow and continuity from the ceremony to the dance floor.

Because I already know your story, your guests, and the tone of your celebration, the evening flows smoothly and effortlessly. I help coordinate reception entrances, toasts, speeches, introduce key moments like the cake and first dance, and keep the energy of the celebration moving beautifully throughout the night.

Ceremony Rehearsal 

$200+gst

A rehearsal helps everyone feel relaxed and confident before the big day.

We run through the ‘ceremony moves’ together so that everyone knows how to time the aisle walk, where to stand, when to walk, and how everything will unfold – allowing the real moment to feel calm, natural and relaxed.

At the heart of it all is the same intention: creating a ceremony that is just right for you – the perfect beginning to your married life together.
