My husband and I were searching for the right celebrant to bring on board our ‘top secret’ plan – to have a private home ceremony where nobody but our family attended or even knew about it until we made our announcement 10 days later. 

Needless to say, we found exactly what we were looking for in Lisa. Right from our first meeting, we knew Lisa was the perfect fit for our plan. She went above and beyond to help bring our ideas to life, even standing out in the rain with us so that we could get married in the exact spot we had our hearts set upon! She did a great job at wrangling our family when the time came to walk down “the aisle”, and ensured everything ran smoothly. 

We especially appreciated that she had printed us a copy of the ceremony script and left it with us (along with a beautiful card) so that we can cherish it as a sweet memory. We couldn’t be more grateful for all she did for us.

I would highly recommend Lisa to anybody who is looking for a celebrant. She is warm, lighthearted, and jovial and I couldn’t fault her work. 

Thank you so much Lisa!

It was a sunny September Saturday at ‘The Houto School House’

Thank you, Lisa, for being our marriage celebrant. We were so happy with the warm welcome and your kindness. We are truly grateful to you for taking the time to get to know us and making our ceremony so personal, special, memorable, and everything else we wanted our day to be.
Highly recommend!

I loved every minute of supporting and surrounding these two wonderful people with love and goodness on their special day.

Our first elopement marriage ceremony at the ‘Houto School House’, it was very beautiful, heartfelt and an honor ~ this moment has inspired my ‘Elopement at Houto School House’  package ~

Hi Lisa, and all who attended our special day.

It was a stunning late March day and every wonderful thing fell into place perfectly for this beautiful couple – they had their two sons in the groomsmen line up – how fabulous! How blessed was I!

Hey Lisa!

Fabian and I just want to thank you so very much from the bottom of our hearts for your absolutely beautiful service!! We couldn’t be anymore happier with how everything went also given the very short notice we gave you as well!! You were just perfect for us! And if I’ve learnt anything, just like my marriage coming into existence – amazing things take time!!!. You are truly a beautiful person, and it was a pleasure to have met you!!

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Karaitiana

Our wedding was held at the end of January in our garden north of Dargaville. It was an absolute success.

Lisa was the perfect wedding celebrant for us.

She let us design our wedding ceremony completely as we wanted, and gave us a helping hand when we got stuck and needed some inspiration.

She was a pleasure to work with and always available for us when we had questions.

She was a huge important part of our wedding and made it a special, exciting, funny, magical and very personal occasion for everybody who attended.

Lisa is a lovely, funny and caring lady. We can only highly recommend her to everyone who wants a professional and reliable celebrant. Look no further, Lisa is the one you need!

Thank you, Lisa, from the bottom of our hearts, so glad we chose you.
