This man has the most beautiful voice and we could listen to him for hours. Nigel is a great choice to perform at your wedding ceremony, a truly professional performer who would add that special something to your ambience and has the ability through is many years of professionals experience to change his genre for your pre-reception cocktails.

Nigel performed for us at this year's Canterbury Bride of the Year and we have had rave reviews since. We were all delighted (with goose-bumps I might add...) when we heard Nigel rehearsing for the event.

One lucky recipient ... Elle Bloxham won Nigel's prize for engaged couples of ceremony and pre-reception vocals. Congratulations Ellie.

Thank you, Nigel, for your stunning voice and for assisting our MC throughout the event. Nigel, we LOVED you!

'Sophisticated, polished, entertaining and classy' is what our guests affectionately reported on the performance of The Entertainment Company at this year's event.
These company performers are delightful ladies and we were blessed to have had Hannah also singing for us, a wonderful addition to the segment.

Working with Director Sandy Gray, and the .company.nz was so easy and the dancers delightful. Our sincere thanks for the performances and beautiful costumes.

Debs Moody, a well-established wedding celebrant in the Canterbury Region, performed a mock wedding at the Canterbury Bride of the Year. You can see by the image attached, how warm, friendly and approachable Deb is. Standing with Deb is our very handsome Groom from NZ Models & Talent.

Leading our programme also was Graham Jones. Graham, you were delightful and carried the brief beautifully; entertaining, funny and not to mention debonaire, is how we describe you.

Having served Christchurch and surrounding areas as one of the most experienced celebrants we have known, we couldn't have asked for anyone better to have represented us at the opening of the 'Canterbury Bride of the Year Bridal Review 2021. We loved your mock wedding Graham, many of the audience believed it was a real wedding :)

Graeme and Kineta made an awesome team on stage and don't they look fabulous.

We had an awesome team fronting the Canterbury Bride of the Year this year. Leading the programme was the very talented Kineta Booker.

Kineta is well experienced in journalism and an extremely competent, warm, articulate and professional wedding celebrant. What we love about Kineta she is her personality and persona, she is fun, vibrant and authentic. Kineta is a superb 'Wedding Celebrant' and can address any audience with decorum, style and panache.

We are super thrilled to have had Kineta as our MC and she looked rather stunning in her fabulous attire from Madison on Broadway at The Crossing.

How proud we were of all our beautiful brides who entered the 2020 Competition.

It takes courage and determination to walk a catwalk when your are not a professional. Our ladies had all of that! As a bonus they were all as beautiful on the inside as they were on the out. 💛📸👰

Thank you ladies, we loved meeting you and having you join us this year.
