Registry weddings

Registry weddingsin Auckland

A small, intimate registry wedding in my all-weather tropical courtyard garden in Glendowie, Auckland. It's simple, special and without the large price tag.

A quiet, simple ceremony

Not everyone wants the fuss of a big wedding day. If you'd prefer a small, quiet, peaceful ceremony, the garden is a lovely setting for it.

What's included

  • A legal ceremony to a set script, with the standard vows
  • Use of my courtyard garden
  • You're welcome to exchange rings and take photos

I'm appointed by the government as a Registry Celebrant and hold validation with Celebrants Aotearoa New Zealand (VCANZ).

When

Registry weddings are held during office hours, Monday to Friday. They're not available at weekends or on public holidays.

Cost

The ceremony fee is set by the government at $175, and includes the garden venue. You also pay $158 to the government for your marriage licence when you apply.
