Why choose a CANZ celebrant?

To perform a wedding ceremony your celebrant must, by law, be appointed as a marriage celebrant by the Department of Internal Affairs via Births, Deaths and Marriages (BDM).

In New Zealand we can get married almost anywhere, so whether you want your ceremony to be traditional, simple, relaxed, casual, whacky, elaborate, indoor, outdoor, on top of a mountain, at the beach or in the bush, a CANZ celebrant can help make this happen.
Members of the Celebrants Association, who perform weddings, are more likely to be experienced and undertake ongoing professional development and many have been through a celebrant specific training program. Through the association we are constantly updated with any changes in the legal requirements of a ceremony and are aware of trends in the industry.
Recently I was appointed to be part of the National Executive, which means that I am part of a team of six who are leading the organisation on behalf of our members.
