Why am I a Celebrant?
Embarking on my journey as a celebrant in 2020 was more than a career choice – it was a calling fueled by an unwavering passion for LOVE!
​
As your dedicated celebrant, I am here to curate those precious moments you've shared and infuse them into a ceremony filled with heartfelt emotions and, of course, a sprinkle of cheeky laughs. Picture this: your special day unfolding like a beautifully crafted story, with every detail tailored to reflect your unique journey together.
​
Now, let me share a little secret about myself – I've been blessed with the gift of gab. Writing, performing, and entertaining come naturally to me; it's where my heart truly sings. With a lifelong passion for music and a love for connecting with people, being a celebrant allows me to blend these passions seamlessly. Think of me as your personal maestro, orchestrating an event that's as enchanting as it is unforgettable.
​
Each consultation leaves me buzzing with excitement and brimming with new ideas. Together, let's craft an authentic ceremony that encapsulates the essence of your love story while ensuring there's plenty of fun along the way!
​
Let's embark on this journey together, shall we? Here's to creating memories that will last a lifetime. So, if you're ready to turn your dreams into reality, let's make magic happen!
​
Remember, your wedding day is more than just an event; it's a celebration of your love story. I'm here to ensure that every moment is as extraordinary as the love you share. Let's infuse your ceremony with joy, laughter, and those special touches that will leave you and your guests with cherished memories for years to come.
Welcome to your journey towards a stress-free and truly meaningful wedding ceremony! I'm your relaxed, young, and fun celebrant based in Christchurch, serving the Canterbury region.
​
With a natural flair for storytelling, I specialize in crafting ceremonies that reflect your unique love story authentically. Picture me as your personal storyteller, transforming your narrative into a heartfelt celebration that genuinely embodies who you are as a couple.
​
Never been married before? No worries! Here's a glimpse into the process:
​
Reach out to me with your wedding date and plans. We'll schedule a casual meet-up at a coffee shop or a cozy bar. During our chat, I'll ask you both a series of intriguing questions about your relationship, helping me understand your personalities and what truly matters to you.
Armed with the insights from our conversation, I'll weave together your story into a ceremony that aligns perfectly with the theme and vibe you envision for your big day. You'll receive a draft of your personalised ceremony, and we'll refine it together until it's exactly what you've dreamed of.
As your wedding day approaches, we'll schedule a rehearsal to ensure everything runs smoothly. On the big day itself, I'll arrive early with my PA system and microphones, ready to calm nerves, welcome your guests, and orchestrate a flawless ceremony. You'll be left married and in high spirits, while I take care of the paperwork, registering your marriage with the DIA.
Sit back and relax as I handle the paperwork, ensuring your marriage is legally recognised. You'll receive your marriage certificate in the mail within 10-14 days, if you have chosen to order one with the marriage license.

Martika & Richard
It is always such a pleasure to meet up with someone who instantly puts a smile on your face, has a
good laugh and makes you and your partner feel right at home. When we first met up with Jodi this
was exactly what happened. Her excited and upbeat personality was front and centre alongside her
obviously genuine passion for seeing couples tie the knot and being there to guide them through
what is to be a very special and memorable day for them.
Her preparation was second to none and her willingness to help with vows, structure and planning
was just exceptional. We really appreciated her help in every aspect and her experience was
priceless when it came to asking the right questions and making us think of the little things that can
so often be missed.
Jodi, from both of us, we cannot thank you enough. You absolutely nailed it and you were a huge
reason our day was such a success. The comments from family and friends were brilliant and your
tailored style to us was simply great. We could not have asked for a better celebrant, and we wish
you all the very best for your future weddings.
