After 9 years of being a Celebrant, Beth has really enjoyed brainstorming with her couples, how to involve family members in a Wedding ceremony.
It may be that a parent – and often two – walk the Bride down the aisle, or present a reading or blessing chosen by the couple, or bring forward the rings.
Or maybe they take part in a ritual that honours the background of the couple.
Being a Witness & signing the Marriage License is another popular choice.
Several of Beth’s couples have asked a family member to sing or play a musical instrument or be the Master of Ceremonies.
And it’s always delightful, to have family members in the Bride or Groom’s party - be it as a Bridesmaid / Best Man / Flower Girl or Page Boy.
There are so many other ways, to have the people who matter the most to you included!

A gorgeous at home wedding this past season, up in Loburn. At home weddings are one of Jane's favourites. The place holds so many memories already; how wonderful to add a whole bunch more. Friends and family all pitched in to help make this day a magical occasion for all. Lots of little pre-planned surprises along the way had people laughing and crying - ceremony magic!

Sharee was able to flex and pivot like the professional she is at Darjon Vineyard recently. The weather was intermittent with rain and plans changed minute by minute. When you choose Sharee to be your Celebrant you can be sure that all the possibilities have been considered and a plan put in place for any eventuality.

“Are you ready? Let's do this!” That special moment when a couple sees each other for the first time on their wedding day is one of Jade's favourites. As a seasoned wedding celebrant, she has been told she is an expert, nerve calmer, and stress-soother. A title she is proud to hold. The groom's reactions say it all. 💖

In the world of weddings, a Handfasting is like weaving together the threads of two lives, symbolising their bond and commitment. Anna knows just how to make this ancient ritual shine in modern ceremonies. With her touch, handfasting becomes more than just tradition - it's a heartfelt moment that adds depth and meaning to a couple's journey into marriage.

It is all about care, paying attention and helping people to have a great experience. Another successful Celebrant and MC gig for Jane back in January at Bramble Grove. It was a heck of a hot day, but everything went so smoothly. Such great teamwork from all involved.
Jane loves working with Liz and her team at Bramble Grove. Smiles all round!

Elopements and micro weddings are becoming increasingly popular, and Jade Whaley Timaru Celebrant, is busy in South Canterbury and the Mackenzie District with her celebrant-only or elopement packages. S + A were married at Lake Tekapo with one of Jade's celebrant + photographer packages. It was hot and windy, so the I Dos were under sheltering trees. Their smiles say it all! 😊💍📸

Beth enjoys guiding you with the wording you wish to use, when you exchange your Wedding rings.
If you would like her to, she can also craft some introductory words about the significance of Wedding rings and what they represent. She will provide options for you to consider, or assist you to write your own words as well – if required.
She will walk you through the process at your rehearsal of how you will do the exchange and point out tips for making sure that it is captured beautifully by your photographer.
She also has for your use, a really cute Ring Security kit which is always richly enjoyed by the Wedding party and guests alike!

Ah, the delight of working together. A couple asked Jane for an intimate ceremony up at the Sign of the Bellbird. Jane recommended Emily Rachel to capture the occasion, and then whilst Jane was trying to capture a selfie on the day, Emily took this fun picture and sent it through to Jane a few days later. When the wedding vendor community helps each other out to be successful, that makes the love and light a whole lot brighter.

Ana loves weddings and she would love to help you create the perfect ceremony to celebrate your marriage.
Recently, R & L wanted a simple backyard wedding to surprise their grandparents who were visiting from out of town. Ana got the brief and tailored the ceremony to include the elements that would make their day special.
With only a couple of hours to spare while their grandparents were away having a coffee, the family turned the backyard into a wedding venue. Ana arrived and helped with tying up balloons, positioning the decorations, and even placing the wedding cake on the table. When the bride arrived just after the grandparents returned from their outing, they were so surprised! Following some tearful hugs and photos, everyone gathered in the back yard to witness R & L exchange their wedding vows.
Contact Ana today to find out how she can help you create a ceremony that is perfect for you.

Jane was Micro Wedding ready at Rosemount back on a sunny Monday in January. Thank you to Chaznel Steenkamp Photography for this fun pre-ceremony pic.
Micro Weddings mean a max of 30 guests, but the ceremony is still personal and unique and then you have some time for photos and drinks and nibbles with your nearest and dearest. Easy. Stress-free.
Get in touch if you think this is a good option for you.

Beth loves helping you with your writing your Vows!
She will demystify them, as often her couples are somewhat intimidated at the prospect of writing them.
She can share her resources and ideas with you, to inspire you to make them truly unique, heart-felt and personal.
Beth will encourage you to initially "have a go" yourselves, with the knowledge that you have her as a “back up” or feedback person (if asked), and she is more than happy to spend time with you one-on-one, to assist you to express yourself.
Beth invites couples to e mail her their Vows on different e mail addresses, so that they are a complete surprise for each other on your Wedding day, and she will print them off on beautiful paper and tie them with a ribbon that matches your colour scheme so they are all ready for you to use.

Marriage Celebrant Robyn O'Brien has a free 'Ceremony Kit' which she gives to couples to help with planning their ceremony. Sometimes couples have no idea what they want to include in their ceremony or how to write their vows. Robyn's kit has fantastic ideas for personal vows, readings and rituals. Many couples have found the kit super helpful, especially if they're a bit stuck on how to get started writing their vows!

Four Years A Celebrant! Ironically as Alison sat down to write her piece for this month, her first wedding four years ago popped up in ‘’Facebook Memories’.
Since then she has done a small number of weddings, vow renewals and ‘commitment’ ceremonies. Though working full time as Assistant Principal on the West Coast, she does not advertise extensively, but is always excited when someone asks her about their wedding!
Alison has yet to do a ‘West Coast’ wedding. Maybe that will be this year!

When Beth first meets with her couples, they often tell her, that they want their guests to feel joyful, to feel their love, and experience the passion in their relationship, and have a heartfelt experience from their wedding.
Beth’s ultimate goal , is to craft your bespoke Ceremony, so that it is entirely personal to you and is told YOUR way.
She will ask how you first met, how you fell in love, the influences of your families, how your relationship grew, and how you ultimately knew this was THE person you wanted to spend the rest of your life with.
She will inspire you, by lifting the lid on traditional thinking/practises/beliefs whilst listening to your passion and visions for your day.
Beth will of course , address any concerns and worries for your day and brainstorm other special elements that you may wish to include in your Ceremony that you may not have even thought about e.g. music , reading or blessings .
After your first meeting, Beth will send you a draft to consider, and then you will edit it together, until it’s exactly what you want and captures all your dreams for your Ceremony.

You wouldn't know by this photo that a thunder storm had originally been predicted for just about the time that this photo was taken. Being super organized Sharee made sure that plans for the day included wet weather alternatives were in place. Sharee has the ability to flex and swivel when necessary to make your day go without a hitch.
