      <image:caption>Kia ora! I am a registered Independent Marriage &amp; Civil Union Celebrant based in Nelson, Aotearoa/NZ and I would be honoured to play a role in your special day.  I offer all couples a fresh and flexible approach to planning their ceremony and work closely with them to make each wedding personal, memorable and most importantly, enjoyable. My “love of love” encouraged me to become a celebrant and it is a role that I feel immense privilege in having. My strengths lie within my down-to-earth personality, forward thinking and organisation. I enjoy public speaking and know how to confidently ad-lib with light humour. All my experiences, travel and people I have met in life so far have contributed to my open nature and fun-loving outlook.  Whether it’s a BIG celebration, a backyard wedding or an intimate elopement, I do my best to make sure my celebrant services go beyond merely writing a ceremony. I love to feel connected with my couples and am always willing to embark on a bit of an adventure! The Nelson, Tasman and Marlborough regions are stunning and offer many picturesque locations for weddings. I’m always happy to travel to wherever your dream ceremony may be held.  Love is Love – every couple deserves a ceremony that celebrates their unique story, no matter their gender or sexuality. If you would like to consider having me as your celebrant,  please contact me for a chat. Let’s make magic memories together.</image:caption>
