"Hi, we are Brent and Mary. We were married on the 28th of June 2009 at our home in Auckland.
Constance Brown was the marriage celebrant and we are writing this letter to you Constance as well as any potential clients: We are very grateful to you for your professional, caring and inspired manner as well as your experience and skill in helping us prepare for and celebrate our special day.
On the day, the ceremony came together really well. There were only a few people present, but we have no doubt that if there was a large group, everyone would've felt just as relaxed, thanks to Constance's gift.
It was great to have her as our wedding celebrant.
Constance, we believe that you certainly have found your calling. Love from Mary and Brent."

"Constance was our Civil Union Celebrant at our ceremony on June 12, 2011 and we couldn't have asked for a more sincere, supportive and relaxed person to officiate our nuptials.
Not currently living in New Zealand, my partner and I communicated with Constance via phone and email in the weeks leading up to the event and she proactively shared her ideas and plans for the day and provided us with a range of options and readings that really helped bring the whole day together. Upon arriving in New Zealand we met with Constance and went over all our ideas and final arrangements - as well as sharing special moments in our relationship - without feeling rushed or rudimentary.
Constance's warmth and calming "no worries" personality was the icing on the (cup)cake on our special day. Everything came together as we had hoped and it left a lasting impression on our friends, family and most importantly us. Many, many thanks Constance for helping make this day truly memorable." - Marc Checkley and Lee Sze Chuin, Singapore.
