A note on style

Personal without becoming overdone

Claire’s ceremonies are designed to feel warm and considered rather than overly formal, stiff, or theatrical. That suits many Gisborne and East Coast couples who want something relaxed, modern, and family-focused.

If you are unsure which option is right for you, Claire can talk it through and help you choose the package that makes the most sense.

Coverage area

Gisborne and the wider East Coast

Claire is based in Gisborne and regularly works with local couples and families across the East Coast. If your ceremony is a little further afield, feel free to ask about travel.
