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
“From our very first interaction, Kerstie was natural, warm, and reassuringly knowledgeable. She created an atmosphere of calm that put us completely at ease, making the whole process feel not just manageable, but genuinely enjoyable. We opted for a hybrid ceremony, blending a traditional structure with a heartfelt reading from my mum about marriage, life, and love. Kerstie wove it all together effortlessly, the transitions were seamless, and the ceremony felt like a cohesive whole from start to finish.
Behind the scenes, she was equally impressive, efficient, organised, and thorough in ensuring all documentation was handled promptly and without a hitch.
If you're looking for a celebrant who brings both professionalism and genuine heart to one of the most important days of your life, look no further than Kerstie. We can't recommend her highly enough.”

“We were so so pleased with our experience with Kerstie, she was everything we hoped for in a celebrant, from our very first communications, video chat, and emails she was such a pleasure to deal with right up until our wedding day and post communications that followed. She helped us to customize every part of our ceremony so that it was uniquely us. On the day she was so lovely and sincere. We would do it all over and not change a thing. Thank you Kerstie for giving us the most wonderful experience!”

“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.”
[J & H, Bride & Groom]
“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. You didn’t just guide the ceremony - you elevated the entire experience.”
[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.”
