Anke, you planned and directed our ceremony so carefully and thoughtfully. Our guests told us how much they enjoyed the event whose focus was nothing other than us. We are very grateful for your splendid work, which made the very first day of our marriage so memorable! We just came back from our honeymoon in Te Anau, Milford Sound and Doubtful Sound. Today is our “fifth Farmers date” anniversary – I thought it is timely to thank you for your great work for our wedding ten days ago.

ELEANOR & DEREK
We could not have been more pleased with Anke as our Marriage Celebrant! She was wonderful, professional and fun on our wedding day! Her voice carried and she delivered a beautiful ceremony. Many of our guests commented on how impressed they were with Anke! One guest said, “we give Anke a 10 out of 10”! She was also incredibly helpful in guiding us with writing the ceremony itself, which took much longer than we anticipated, especially since we were juggling the birth of our new baby girl and our two year old boy! We highly recommend Anke!
CARMEL & SIEGFRIED
Anke entered our lives at a particularly frenetic time when we had just moved into a new home, were dealing with renovations, a busy family life not to mention language and cultural barriers – whew! Anke managed to shape and nurture our broad ideas for a meaningful ceremony out of the chaos and into something serene and simple, and most of all something unique to us and our own special love story. She kept us on track with our organisation, paperwork and making sure we had everything ready on time so the day flowed perfectly and just as it should We were both impressed with her professional , calm personality and the way she created such memorable magic on our special day when we exchanged vows under the trees in the garden surrounded by friends and family – we recommend her highly as the person who can create magic for you too!
