Kia ora, I'm Nate.
ACTIVE CELEBRANT & M.C. ~60 WEDDINGS A YEAR
I've officiated 515 weddings across NZ over the last seven years, and somewhere between the luxury Waiheke weddings to the family farm weddings in Matamata I've picked up a thing or two.
And I'm still out there every weekend — around 60 weddings a year. I don't just write about this stuff, I'm living it with real couples, in real venues, right now.
With 350+ five-star Google reviews behind me, I'm here in the community every day: answering your questions, reading vow drafts, and reminding you that yes, you're allowed to have a sausage sizzle reception.
