Melanie Stuart, Celebrant

Modern, authentic, meaningful love stories, expertly told.

Listing Details

My style is contemporary, connected, friendly and genuine. I have a particular affinity to couples with children, or those who are “second time around”, couples for whom cultural values and traditions are important, LBGQT partnerships, and couples visiting from overseas. I welcome all who seek a polished yet relaxed modern wedding ceremony delivered with a splash of humour and fun.

FAQ

Why should we choose you for our wedding?

I firmly believe that your precious wedding budget should be spent on the people you connect with and trust the most to make your day memorable for all the right reasons. You must feel comfortable with the celebrant who stands beside you (or behind, or to the side of you!) when you share your marriage vows. I feel so privileged to have been chosen by many couples over many years, and never take my role for granted. And if you are part of the LGBQTI+ community - you can trust that you will be safe with me.

Can a friend tell our love story while you do the legal bits?

How much do you charge?

My fees are set out on my website and are based on the level of detail, time, and travel you need me to bring to your wedding day. If it’s a Registry ceremony, my fee is fixed by the Government at $90. For a personalised ceremony I charge accordingly based on the package you choose and whether you need a rehearsal. There may be extra travel costs applicable for ceremonies on public holidays, or a long way from Central Auckland.
