Ingrid Saxton :  Marriage Celebrant

​

After 5 wonderful years of marrying couples and/or helping people say goodbye to loved ones, I've reduced my celebrant services and now only provide either a Registry or Civil Union ceremony ($90 as set by BDM) or my Petite Personalised ceremony for a modest fee.  All ceremonies are here at my home in Ohariu Valley, Wellington (6km out from Johnsonville) as I don't travel to other location. My Gallery page has some lovely photos of what you can expect.  

 

My Petite Personalised ceremony is all about you two, much sweeter than a Registry ceremony as we share a little of your love story with your guests and you can get married any day of the week - subject to my availability.  You may invite  up to 20 guests, have music playing, hire a professional photographer, 'walk down the aisle' and you get to say "I Do".  You may want to cut your wedding cake, share some canapes and have a toast with your guests at my home before you all go somewhere else for lunch or dinner - all included in my fee.​

​

If you wish to know more, or to book my services please contact me via email or call or text me to see if I'm available on your preferred date.

 

​Kindest regards

Ingrid Saxton

https://www.google.com/search? was the celebrant for our wedding of around 100 people this year (Sep 2022). We knew when we met Ingrid that she was going to be great, however Ingrid exceeded our expectations. Ingrid went above and beyond for us to make sure our special day was as smooth as possible. Ingrid was so easy to get in contact with and really got to know us as a couple to ensure our ceremony was extra special. We can not thank you enough, and our guests are still commenting on how lovely our ceremony was. Highly recommended.

..... Ingrid's passion and patience for wanting to reflect and incorporate 'us' in our service was wonderful and she guided us through the whole process - including fool proof instructions for applying for our marriage license!  She accommodated our requests and captured our love for each other so well.  Her warmth towards love and marriage is infectious and regardless of our simplified wedding day we felt on top of the world - and that is not just because we were stood on a cliff top!  The service that Ingrid wrote for us was perfect, creating smiles, tears, love and time for reflection as she delivered it without fault on the day. We cannot thank her enough for all her effort, time and kindness as she kept us company on our journey to being announced husband and wife. We recommend Ingrid wholeheartedly.

I would recommend Ingrid Saxton to anyone looking for a celebrant.  She also acted as Master of Ceremonies at our wedding, a role she carried out with considerable grace and humour.
