Your ceremony is more than words on a page. It’s the moment your love story becomes real in front of the people who matter most.

Celebrant, MC, and storyteller

Emma from Marry Us Emma, smiling warmly while leaning against a wall in a bold mustard top and black skirt. A Wellington-based celebrant and MC, Emma is known for her calm, personal approach to creating meaningful, heartfelt wedding ceremonies.

I bring calm where there’s chaos, connection where there’s formality, and intention to every moment I touch.

With a background in radio and event management, I know how to hold a room—keeping everyone engaged, leaning in, and connected to your story.

But what truly drives me is this: crafting ceremonies that feel personal, grounded, and uniquely yours.

This isn’t about putting on a performance. It’s about creating a moment that feels alive with meaning, one you’ll look back on and say: “That was us. That was perfect.”

Why I do this

I believe in moments that matter. The ones that stop time, ground us in connection and remind us what’s important. Your ceremony is one of those moments.

With you every step

From our first kōrero to the final “I do,” I’ll be there guiding you, grounding you, and ensuring every moment flows with ease.

Why Couples
Choose Me

Your ceremony should feel like it was made just for you. No stiff templates, no forced lines—just a thoughtful, meaningful celebration that reflects your love, values, and the unique story you share together.
