Thank you Michelle for making the best day of my life the best!” - Helen and Eric 22/07/2023

“Michelle was the perfect celebrant and MC for our recent wedding at Vilagrad Winery. Your wonderful, funny, and flexible approach created a joyful atmosphere. Her brilliant sense of humour added an extra sparkle to our special day. Your read of the crowd and cultural competency were impressive, and your intelligence shone through in your quick thinking. Michelle was supportive of us as a couple the whole way through, and also of our ideas for the ceremony, such as allowing our two dogs to be involved. The delivery of our ceremony was faultless. We didn’t have a single issue arise and everything was delivered immaculately. We both felt comforted having Michelle’s guiding hand in charge of the day. She effortlessly brought aroha (love) and manaaki (hospitality) to every moment, creating an atmosphere filled with joy and laughter. Michelle, we can’t thank you enough for your remarkable MC abilities at our wedding. Aside from being an amazing celebrant, you were such a brilliant MC and really saved the day.” - Kate and Kerry 06/05/2023
