Having Susanne plan, organise and officiate our wedding was the best decision we could have made!

From the first meeting via WhatsApp video call from Germany to the personal meeting in New Zealand, all meetings and conversations were very warm, open and clear right from the start.

Apart from filling in our personal details and answering questions about the wedding speech and wishes for the wedding ceremony, we didn't have to worry about anything.
Susanne is a very reliable, caring and warm-hearted person and we couldn't have imagined our entire wedding day to be more beautiful.

We got married on a beach she suggested, Pauanui Beach. It was a dream!
As we got married without our family, Susanne had organised two witnesses and a photographer as well. These 3 people were also delightful and very warm, as if we had known each other before.
Susanne had suggested typical New Zealand wedding rituals for us to choose from. Our personal preparation for this was so intense. We will never forget it.
The entire path to the beach from the car park across the meadows and dunes was lovingly decorated for us with lots of delightful details and the actual wedding venue on the beach was just amazing!

Susanne has lovingly marked this beautiful day of our love with a symbolic red heart, filling it with warmth and joy!

Liebe Suse, your guidance and planning to make our dream of a wedding in New Zealand come true was fantastic.

The atmosphere between us was so relaxed and familiar from the beginning that it felt like we had known you forever.

Our wedding exceeded all our expectations!

Opoutere Beach was beautiful. The ceremony you wrote for us and the ritual with our Pounamu were incredibly personal and special.

Dmitri perfectly captured our wedding, and the photos and video turned out wonderfully.

Your accommodation on your farm was great, very peaceful and inviting.

Thank you so much, Suse, for giving us the opportunity to start our unforgettable journey through New Zealand with our wedding at your place!

Suse officiated our wedding ceremony at the Waterlily Gardens in Waihi. My husband is New Zealander and I am German, so we asked for a bilingual ceremony and what can we say - it was just perfect!

It's not an easy job to hold the ceremony in two different languages and still get all the emotions across, but Suse did it beautifully, emotionally and with great sensitivity.

Even beforehand, Suse took so much time to get to know us and our love story and put so much effort into the preparation. Her work does not end with the crafting of the wedding ceremony, she is a contact person and supporter through and through.

Friends and family have said that Suse was not only a wonderful wedding celebrant, but it felt like she was a friend who had known us for a long time.

We couldn't have imagined a more perfect marriage celebrant and thank you Suse from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding such a wonderful and unforgettable day.

We were absolutely thrilled with our magical and special day on the beach.

Feeling the sand between our toes and hearing the sound of the ocean made our wedding ceremony truly unique.

Suse, you perfectly realized our idea of a small, intimate and wonderfully relaxed wedding for us, even though we were of course a bit nervous ;)).

The witnesses were just as warm-hearted as you.

We loved the detailed and beautiful decoration of our wedding venue and the keepsake with sand from the beach.

Pauanui Beach was the perfect location for our wedding, with its dunes, rocks and Pōhutukawa Trees providing a variety of stunning photo locations, which Dmitri captured beautifully.

Thank you also for ending our day so nicely with dinner at Miha Restaurant and surprising us with a delightfully decorated wedding table.

Your accommodation 'Idyllic Hideaway' on your Pauanui Farm is absolutely gorgeous. Situated in a dreamlike setting and when you wake up you have this incredible view of the clouds on the mountain slopes!

Julia & Patrick

We had the best day of our lives!

On the stunning beach of Pauanui, with its wide open beach, trees, and the surrounding rocks and mountain.

We experienced a truly magical moment that will stay with us forever.

A thousand thanks to you, Suse, for making our wedding day so unforgettable!

Marielena & Tim

Suse designed the most amazing ceremony for our renewal of vows. I had my family flying in from Germany for our celebration at Otara Bay.

The deeply personal ceremony truly reflected us, our two families and the love we share. Suse suggested a beautiful ritual that involved the whole family in the celebration.

To honour my roots the ceremony was held both in English and German, which was unique and very special for us.

Suse's thoughtfulness, kindness and care made the entire process stress free and seamless.

We were so happy to celebrate our love in a way we had always envisioned. Thank you Suse for making our special day so perfect for us.

Christian & Dean

We contacted Susanne on a Saturday, to be married for the following Saturday - one day before Christmas Eve! Susanne was accommodating, made the process easy, simple and was able to provide witnesses on a weeks notice. She provided an excellent ceremony on little information. Would highly recommend!

Sarah & Jack

Suse created the most magical little ceremony for us and our whānau on Lonely Bay. From our first meeting, she listened to everything we wanted and made us feel completely comfortable.

All we wanted was a simple, quiet little afternoon on the beach where we could share our vows and get married and that’s exactly what she did for us!

Suse had a beautiful set up and a wonderful speech that really focused on what we wanted for the day. She even brought some champagne glasses down to the beach so we could toast afterwards. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone do the same for their wedding day.

Thank you so much Suse.

Natalie & Kipp

From the first to the last minute, we felt wonderfully taken care of by you Suse. Your website was our first point of contact, and everything is explained very clearly and understandably. We already knew then that we were simply in the best hands.

When we first spoke on the phone, you immediately sensed how we envisioned our ceremony, and you simply advised us perfectly. Especially with the location, the  design of the ceremony, flowers, and all the other details. It was a perfectly organized and enchanting evening at the stunning Lonely Bay, with so much spontaneity and freedom in the arrangement. The balance between the significance of the moment and the fun and lightness we wanted to feel on our wedding day was uniquely beautiful. You made our wedding ceremony as formal as necessary and as adventurous as possible for us. The wedding speech you wrote truly reflected us.

And we laughed so much!

Every minute we enjoyed to the fullest, and we would do it exactly like that anytime again.

For us, our wedding was simply perfect and unique.

Thank you!"
