I had the pleasure of officiating at the Wedding of these two beautiful humans at the Whangamomona Hotel two days before Christmas 2024. I'll remember this day forever Anna Fawcett and Tyler Craft. May you both rock on at the Nantes Heavy Metal Festival in 2025 celebrating!! 🤍🥂

Bookings for 2024/25 season are now open!!

Let's have a no obligation chat about how I can create your dream wedding ceremony 🤍🌺.

Creating a dream wedding ceremony involves personalization and attention to detail and that's exactly what I can offer you.

Here are a few steps to help you plan:

1. Define Your Vision:
Sit down with your partner and discuss what you both envision for your dream wedding. Consider themes, colors, atmosphere, and any special elements you want to incorporate.

2. Choose a Venue:
Select a venue that aligns with your vision and can accommodate your desired guest count and budget. Whether it's a garden, beach, vineyard, or a historic mansion, make sure it reflects your style.

3. Personalize Your Ceremony:
Write your own vows or choose meaningful readings and rituals that reflect your relationship and values. Incorporate cultural or religious traditions if they're important to you.

4. Select Meaningful Music:
Choose songs that hold significance for you as a couple for the processional, recessional, and any special moments during the ceremony.

5. Consider the Atmosphere:
Pay attention to lighting, decor, and seating arrangements to create the ambiance you desire. Whether it's romantic, rustic, or modern, ensure that every detail contributes to the overall atmosphere.

6. Include Personal Touches:
Incorporate elements that represent you as a couple, such as photos, favorite flowers, or sentimental items. Personal touches make the ceremony unique and memorable.

7. Hire Talented Professionals:
Invest in experienced vendors like photographers, florists, musicians, and caterers who can bring your vision to life and ensure everything runs smoothly on your big day.

8. Plan for Comfort:
Consider the comfort of your guests by providing shade, heaters, or fans depending on the weather, and offering refreshments before and after the ceremony.

9. Practice and Rehearse:
Schedule a rehearsal to ensure that everyone knows their roles and the ceremony flows seamlessly. This helps alleviate any nerves and ensures that everyone is prepared.

10. Focus on Love and Joy:
Remember that the most important aspect of your wedding ceremony is the love you share with your partner. Stay present in the moment, enjoy the celebration, and cherish the memories you're creating together 💞
