ABOUT ME
I am a registered celebrant who believes that ceremonies matter.
Whether I am standing alongside a couple on their wedding day, supporting a family through loss, or helping mark a meaningful life milestone, my role is to listen carefully and create a ceremony that feels genuine, calm, and deeply personal.
Every ceremony I deliver is written specifically for the people at its heart - never rushed, never generic.
I love helping people and I believe that being able to help make these special moments the best they can possibly be is a privilege that I never take for granted.
TESTIMONIALS
Kind words from couples
“Your warmth, sincerity, and calm presence brought an intimacy to the moment that all our guests felt. Many of them actually shared with us how wonderful you were and how personal the ceremony felt. You truly did an exceptional job, and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to stand with us on such an important day.”
[P & C, Bride & Groom]
"Kerstie was absolutely wonderful to work with. She chatted with us and used our questionnaire to create a ceremony that felt deeply personal, meaningful, and beautifully written. We were so grateful to have her be part of our special day and truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to marry us. We highly recommend Kerstie to any couple looking for an officiant who genuinely cares and brings your story to life."
[A & J, Bride & Groom]
"We are so grateful to have had Kerstie as our celebrant in New Zealand. She put so much thought and care into crafting our ceremony script, and the way she delivered it was warm, gentle, and deeply moving. Listening to her on the day, we were truly touched.
She also coordinated the ceremony very smoothly so that everything flowed in a calm and organized way, which made the whole experience even more special for us. Being in a foreign country can feel unfamiliar, but Kerstie made us feel completely at ease and beautifully looked after. We feel so lucky that she was the one who led our ceremony and blessed this important moment in our lives."

“You didn’t just guide the ceremony - you elevated the entire experience.”
