Michelle Teller
Marriage Celebrant
Personalised Ceremonies
When it comes to your ceremony, I'm not just your celebrant; I'm your guide, your supporter, and your storyteller. Let's navigate this journey together, shaping every detail from vows to readings, ensuring your ceremony feels uniquely yours. Getting to know you both is the key – it allows me to craft a ceremony that mirrors your individualities and captures the very essence of your love.
A little about me...
Hey, I'm Michelle!
Based in Napier, I design and execute highly customised and unique wedding ceremonies, vow renewal ceremonies and naming ceremonies. I’m here to make sure that each event I’m involved with is inspiring, extraordinary and unforgettable.
I'll be your rock on the day and leading up to your event, whether that entails calming nerves, pinning your dress, helping you coordinate or just being a voice of calm and reason.
I first became a celebrant for my niece's wedding and completely fell in love with the role that was bestowed on me.
I had discovered a passion and new talent I never knew I had.
I take my role very seriously but I also like to infuse it with fun and laughter so that everyone remembers that celebrating love should not be a time of panic and stress. The best weddings are not those that are perfectly executed, but those that are real and relaxed and where the couple and their guests are swept up in the moment and the love that two people have found.

My Happy Couples
It's an absolute privilege being able to share in your special day, and nothing makes me happier than seeing the look on a couple's face after delivering a ceremony that exceeds their expectations. But don’t just take my word for it, read on to see what couples have said about working with me.
William & Kasia
"We strongly recommend Michelle. She was incredibly helpful during the whole process of planning the ceremony and made us feel confident throughout. We loved her approach to the wedding and the content she provided during the ceremony, and are grateful for her contribution.
Many thanks,
William and Kasia"
Honey and Lucy
"Michelle has always been one of our favourite people, so early in our wedding planning journey we asked if she would consider becoming a celebrant and do us the honour of officiating our wedding. Not only did she agree to go through the lengthy process of becoming a celebrant, she was amazing at it. We are privileged to call Michelle whānau, so for her to bring us together in marriage was incredibly special. We were the first couple she married, not that anyone would have known. She was both calm and calming, and helped make our wedding day and ceremony a memory we will always treasure. We are so grateful that she became a celebrant and wish her all the best in her journey bringing people together in love."
