Chris Blackford - Marriage Celebrant

Chris Blackford - Marriage Celebrant I am a long term Queenstown resident, duly authorised as a gazetted Marriage Celebrant. I would love I have been in public service all of my working life.

I became a marriage celebrant to help couples make their day as special as possible. After retiring I felt the desire to continue my public service and becoming a celebrant has enabled me to do that. I have had the good fortune to marry people of all nationalities and walks of life in this beautiful place that has been my home for over 35 years. Your wedding day should be the most exciting and enj

oyable part of your life. I am here to guide you through the formalities and work with you to formulate a ceremony that will be everything you want it to be. I have a wealth of knowledge for venues, vendors and contacts in the local area. I also have a proven record as a celebrant having officiated weddings for the past 4 years. I look forward to being part of your big day!

"One of our favourite parts of the wedding was the ceremony and I have to say that it was because Chris captured perfectly our personalities and created a ceremony that was romantic, lighthearted and fun in the best way possible.

We asked him to bring his own ideas and the things he added into the ceremony made everyone truly enjoy it. We had the best comments from our guests.

My partner and I are from different countries united in New Zealand and Chris managed to bring a little bit of all the cultures we share.

We thank Chris for helping us create such an unforgettable moment in our lives".

"Christie, we feel so privileged, grateful and couldn’t have imagined anyone better to have officiated our wedding. The whole ceremony was just beautiful and unforgettable.

We really appreciate how you made us feel calm and at ease with your warmth, humour and friendly manner.

Thank you for your support and guidance. It was so helpful and stress less on our wedding day, we were well prepared for what was to come.

Every time we talk about our wedding we always mention how special you made it for us.

You were the best celebrant and so much more!"

“Chris was absolutely outstanding, helpful since we first approached him with queries. We met prior to the Ceremony to discuss the details and he was such a pleasant person to be around. Our Ceremony was supposed to be on the top of the Remarkables. On the day of the Ceremony he was prompt to help and available earlier than we originally agreed as the helicopter was weather dependant. Up the mountain the Ceremony was great, he made it a nice experience with his wise words adding some special greetings in our home language to make it even more special. We would totally recommend his services.” - Patricia & Tiago

"We had the great pleasure of having Chris as our celebrant. Chris was great to deal with right from the start.

We were given a selection of different ceremony scripts to read through and had total control over adding or removing things out to suit our wedding.

My wife Alina is Russian which Chris took into account by learning a few lines in Russian to personalize our special day.

We are both extremely grateful to Chris and would definitely recommend him."

"Hi Chris, we can't thank you enough for being the celebrant on our big day. You were professional, well dressed and you added the perfect amount of humour and sentiment into our ceremony. We had so many comments from family and friends about how fun and entertaining your service was and we can not agree more. Getting married can be quite stressful but your opening introduction lightened the mood and we felt relaxed for the rest of the ceremony. Thank you so much for being a part of our day!"
