Christine was absolutely fantastic from the first time I spoke to her, she has such a warm and caring nature that just puts you at ease straight away.. She took absolute pride in making sure she knew us well and knew exactly what kind of wedding we wanted. Christine wrote a ceremony that was just perfect for us and was everything that we had imagined. Christine also has so much experience and knowledge she was amazing for giving us advice on various aspects of our ceremony and wedding day. On the day, Christine was exceptional. She put us both at ease and made standing in front of 113 people reading vows much less nerve raking by ensuring we were relaxed and comfortable. The ceremony was just great, she had our guests in tears and laughing with joy. Pretty much every guest of ours told us afterwards that it is the best ceremony they have ever been too and they will remember it for a very long time. We also just had so much fun, I wish we could do it all over again. Christine, you were just fantastic, we cant thank you enough! Kate & Simon xxx

Christine was a wonderful celebrant for our wedding. She was really helpful with writing our ceremony and had attention to detail. She made the process relaxing and not stressful.

Christine is a very professional, warm hearted lady who is very good at what she does. She was very accommodating and prepared for any situation should it arise. She offered important advice and was extremely supportive in preparing the ceremony, taking the time to get to know us and taking on board our ideas as well.

Christine was very helpful in the planning process of our ceremony and was dedicated to making sure we had an amazing day, which we did. So many of our family and friends commented on our beautiful ceremony, and that was down to Christine’s words and organisation.

Thank you for all that you did Christine, we truly appreciate it.

Christine is a wonderful lady who is exceptional at what she does. She is the only celebrant that got to know us and she made us fell welcome with her open arms and willing to help us make our day perfect. She helped keep us calm and made us remember that nothing can go wrong! She supported us the whole way and was so encouraging of what we were trying to get out of our day.
No words could truly express how thankful I am for Christine being the perfect celebrant and making our day exactly what we wanted it to be.

I will recommend her to anyone looking for a celebrant

Christine was a breeze to deal with, she has so many ideas you can flick through her books and see what you like which is good because i’d never know where to start.
She helped where she could and talking with her was like sitting down with an old friend.
Thank you Christine we had an amazing day!!!

Christine we thank you so very much for being our celebrant on our special day. You were so professional, organised and helpful and we were so grateful to have such confidence in you for leading our ceremony. You always were so cheerful and had many helpful tips and we appreciate all your assistance in helping make our day perfect. Thanks so much.

christine was absolutely wonderful she was flexible and helped us create our ceremony just the way we wanted it. she comes ready with enthusiasm and a wealth of ideas. I can’t believe she married us one year ago allready !

Christine did a great job as our celebrant, we couldn’t be happier!

I found Christine at the Tga wedding expo. To be honest she was the first celebrant I saw there so I signed up with her - what a fantastic decision!! Christine was so easy to deal with - I live in Gisborne but this was no issue what so ever. I couldn’t be happier with the service I received and the wedding day went off so smoothly with her help. I also loved how we didn’t have to do a rehearsal as it would have wasted everyone’s time, she just filled the boys in when they got there about what to do.

Thank you Christine for making our wedding ceremony so enjoyable and memorable.  You put us at ease and guided us through the proceedings with total professionalism and yet we felt your warmth shone through not only with your interaction with us but also with the whole congregation.
Your sense of humour had us all laughing but did not detract from the seriousness of the event. Your attention to detail was second to none as every part of the ceremony was planned to perfection and flowed really well.
Your vibrant and infectious personality was enjoyed by all creating a wonderful moving experience.
Thank you again for being our celebrant we appreciate your support and all that you have done for us.

Warm Regards
Paul & Marcella Josling

We would like to thank you for the amazing job you did officiating our wedding. The ceremony was everything we hoped for. You put us at ease from our initial meeting right through to the ceremony. It was everything we could have hoped for and more. Thank-you for making our special day so special we really appreciate it and will remember it for a long time.

Christine Grant was the celebrant for our Wedding. We can recommend her, particularly for her professionalism - along with her help and advice leading up to the day, and her thoughtful follow ups afterwards.

Christine Grant is an amazing celebrant. She is kind, considerate, caring and totally professional. She understand what every Bride and Groom needs for their big day and ensures that it happens. Having Christine officiate for our day was the best decision we could have made. Christine worked efficiently and flawlessly to create the perfect ceremony for us. We will always have fond memories of our wedding day thanks to Christine and her meticulous attention to detail. We thank you Christine, from the bottom of our hearts xxxxx

My husband took the role of selecting our celebrant and dealing with all the details as we were based in Palmerston North and he has family in Tauranga where we were married so it was his role to conduct things in Tauranga . 

I was 8 months pregnant so it was nice having the wedding prep taken care of from a distance with peace of mind.

In all my dealing over the telephone/email with Christine I found her to be so very helpful.  Her emails always covered everything we needed to know, she would chase us up when required for the information that was required, and helpful hints and tips for our special day.  I almost felt she took on the role of a wedding planner from a distance. 

Our wedding was attended by 17 family on the beach, we have a blended family and she made our 4 children feel so included in the ceremony to which i will be truly grateful as it was as much about them as it was about us getting married, and Christine provided a lovely intimate ceremony and assisted us greatly with the flow and ceremony that we truly wanted.  Unfortunately the weather was very unkind to us on the day but Christine was still very professional and made me feel so at ease and the ceremony went off without a hitch - even with umbrellas as a main feature. 

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Christine to anyone in the future.

A very special occasion, our Golden Wedding Anniversary. After 50 years of marriage, we Renewed our Vows in The Elms Chapel, and Christine was the Celebrant we chose. What a great decision we made, Christine made our day so special, with abeautifully worded service,  and there were not many dry eyes, amongst our children and grandchildren.

Christine is fabulous! She makes everything a breeze and makes you feel like you are in the bestest of hands… And you most certainly are in the best hands with Christine! She goes out of her way to ensure your special day runs just how you want it to. Christine comes HIGHLY recommended to all. I will most certainly be recommending her to bride and grooms to be

Christine has many positive reviews and it is clear why. She was absolutely professional and friendly throughout, giving advice and support for the full engagement. She provided an enormous amount of preparation material to help us assemble the ceremony and - on the day before - provided coaching, last minute tips and detailed grooming of the ceremony.

She has clearly the experience to handle any situation that may come up (we were having a few technical issues before the ceremony) but nobody noticed - and Christine was a calming influence throughout.

Christine was fantastic at every stage of our wedding. Right from planning she knew exactly what we wanted and did a great job making the ceremony ours.
We would highly recommend her to anyone and she may get a client or two if the future from out of our guests.

My husband Dave and myself had our 25 year anniversary whereby Christine Grant was our celebrant for this special occasion.  We found Christine to be so helpful, friendly, and so knowledgable.  We highly recommend Christine to anyone wanting a special ceremony.  She is so passionate, it really was a pleasure having her attend our special day.

Christine was amazing from the word go. I knew she would be a good celebrant because i rang her quite abit in advance and she was nearly all booked up! She was lovely on the phone and wanted to meet with us. We met up and we were sat talking with her for a good few hours. We got on very well with her and she was so personal and interested in everything about us. She truely does want to get to know the couples that she marries and tells their story.
When planning the ceremony she always replied promptly which made our lives very easier. We wanted to change things around and add a few things to the ceremony that we had come up with together with Christine and that was no trouble at all. She lets you make the ceremony exactly how you want it but also suggests good ways of doing things to you.
The rehearsal went well. We met at the venue and went through everything and i felt assured and at ease. I felt that i was in good hands with Christine.
The day went smoothly, even though i was incredibly nervous (mostly of tripping over my large dress)!!! Christine engaged with us and with all the guests and we couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant.
I would recommend Christine to any couple getting married if they want someone who is professional, helpful and makes your wedding ceremony amazing.
