Away from my celebrant work, I am a director of Lunchonline. We have been operating as an online lunch service for 15 years! We were the first to market back in 2010.

Read more to see what we do - feel free to contact me if you have a school that might be able to gain benefit from Lunchonline. We'd be delighted to help you!

These are the people I spend A LOT of time with!

Thanks to our crew - I will miss our retiring three of Spike, Helen and Rachel.

What. A. Weekend!! 🥳 We're so lucky to work in the best industry alongside the most glorious colleagues. Celebrants Aotearoa Conference 2025 was a weekend full of learning, growing, meeting new friends, catching up with long-time pals and FUN! This kind of connection is so important for all of us 💚 Over the next few weeks we'll share pieces of the weekend, but for now - it is with absolute gratitude we showcase our National Executive 2024/2025 with you: Helen, Iwi, Rachel, Spike, Anna and Brenda. What. A. Crew!! 💚

Lots of joy in Parnell today in my library.

Congratulations to Lili and Jun! There were some nerves but lots of heartfelt happiness 💞

Then later admiration of my husband’s sports memorabilia that decorates our library.
Congratulations to Ann and Francesco!

And a camera shy couple too - so lots of fun helping people get hitched!

It’s been a busy time in my celebrant world❣️

A couple of personalised ceremonies this week, and a few registry ones too.

And our Celebrants Aotearoa Annual General Meeting last night. It’s a privilege to be part of our National Executive. (A volunteer role)

Pictured here are Yura and Chris. A delightful couple who were happy to make it official in my library - with lots of sports memorabilia on these walls!

Thinking about getting married?

Winter is a great time to make your lifetime commitment.

I’ve had many couples contacting me for a winter wedding and also for their summer wedding!

Get in touch - I’d love to meet you!

I loved meeting Ao & Clara, their parents and friends!
How fabulous to be their celebrant in my library.
A mid-morning ceremony and they were off for a celebration brunch.
Congratulations - may you continue to fall in love 🥰

Celebrant on tour - in Cornerbrook, Newfoundland.

I met Curtis today - he’s crafting a macrame handfast chord. His first - and we got to play with it!

What fun 🤩
