About Me

I live in the Buller Region and have a passion for the outdoors. I enjoy tramping with my husband and exploring NZ. 

I originally became a marriage celebrant to officiate the wedding of my best friends. From that moment I was hooked. I felt honoured to share their moment and bring them into the next chapter of their lives.

If you are about to take the next step in your life with your favourite person, send me an email and we can catch up for a no obligation coffee.
