To perform a wedding ceremony your celebrant must, by law, be appointed as a marriage celebrant by the Department of Internal Affairs via Births, Deaths and Marriages (BDM).

In New Zealand we can get married almost anywhere, so whether you want your ceremony to be traditional, simple, relaxed, casual, whacky, elaborate, indoor, outdoor, at the top of a mountain, at the beach or in the bush, a CANZ celebrant can help make this happen.
