I did a small intimate wedding last week in Waitoki. It’s called Retreat on Whitehills. It’s accommodation, full kitchen, deck area and an place to get married if you were after something small. I would say up to 25 people comfortably, maybe more. Highly recommend. Congratulations to Mr and Mrs D as well 😍

If you’ve ever wondered what a Celebrant does …. Have a read of this.

At CANZ, we’re often asked what the role of a marriage celebrant is. And while most people understand that you can’t have a wedding without one, the celebrant role is far wider than simply being the facilitator of the legal process.

Some great information here if your thinking of a small wedding.

Just inviting a few family and friends to your marriage ceremony can make for a more intimate and memorable occasion.

Keeping your guest list to those you feel comfortable with allows you to express your true feelings for your partner, especially when writing your marriage vows.

And here’s a tip on how to make your wedding vows more intimate and authentic:

“I ask couples to strip it all right back to basics: what is it they first fell in love with? What are some of the best parts of the relationship that they have nurtured? It grounds them not only in thinking about what they would like to share about them on their day, but also how they might like to shape their vows.”
Celebrant from Celebrants Aotearoa
