About Joy:-

For most of my life I have encouraged and empowered others in their personal and spiritual growth.
  My training has been to unite different people of all areas of life, back grounds and values and find creative ways to bring them together by listening, being sensitive to others needs and to give a voice to their particular values, while at the same time remaining professional and within integrity.  I have represented and supported a large cross section of the community and its people which included many religions and their values bringing together the diversity of the many races, cultures and religions that New Zealand has to offer.


The combination of my experience in leading a large organisation in the business sector and having established and headed two spiritual and personal development centres in both Wellington and Auckland has given me many skills which assist me as a marriage celebrant. 

My style is professional, warm friendly and natural.  I am a confident, and passionate speaker  and love what I do and embrace my role as a celebrant with Joy and enthusiasm.

Every person is unique, every culture is unique and it is this that inspires me when designing and creating a Ceremony which is personal to you and reflects your individuality.  It is important that you are comfortable to express you own ideas and personal wishes and I will work with you to create your ceremony exactly as you imagine it to be.

Your special day is a memorable moment in time for you so it is important to make it unforgettable relaxed, inspiring, friendly and most of all meaningful. 

It would be a great joy and honour to have the role as a celebrant at your Joyous Celebration.


I am a qualified registered Celebrant authorised by the Registrar-General of Internal Affairs New Zealand.
