We were so lucky to have Rachael as our celebrant at our wedding this year.
We knew as soon as we met Rachael that she would be perfect for our ceremony. She is contemporary and professional and really listened to our ideas and wishes for the day. Her understanding of us showed when she emailed us the draft ceremony. It was perfect, no changes needed! Rachael was so genuine and lovely. The service she conducted was warm and caring and kept everyone interested right until the end. We have had so many comments from our guests about how great our celebrant was. A lot even said it was the best ceremony they had ever attended! We are so grateful to Rachael for making our day as amazing as it was. We will always remember the beautiful ceremony. It was exactly what we wanted. Thank you! - Jon and Hannah
Warm and Original, 15-05-2011
We can't believe how lucky we were to find Rachael. Young, fresh and with exactly the right mix of gravity and fun. We had as much input as we liked and couldn't believe how well she captured our relationship. The service was warm and original and very well written (not a hint of cliche!) and her delivery was exceptional - she was so warm and genuinely happy to be there that it felt as though she was an old friend. She was really professional to deal with and calmly dealt with all of our last minute requests. We can't recommend her highly enough, especially if you're looking for a relaxed yet heartfelt service. - Kimberley
Well organised and flexible, 27-04-2011
It was a delight to have rachael as such an important part of our special day. Rachael was well organised whilst being flexible enough to accommodate our last minute additions. She was dressed beautifully and delivered a lovely ceremony of which she had committed to memory barely using her notes at all. Rachel was caring and a great support to the young children in our ceremony and they immediately felt as ease with her.
Many of our guest said it was the lovely ceremony they had ever been to.
Thanks for making our day so special rachael. We cannot recommend your services highly enough. - Jason and Nicola

We couldn't recommend her more highly. - Emma and Luke

Exceptional, 12-12-2010
My ten year old daughter and myself recently attended the wedding of my daughter’s school teacher in Nelson. The Celebrant, Rachael Schepers, just blew me away with her warm, friendly and professional manner, she was a real surprise! She looked like a million dollars! And her speech was crystal clear and she had an exceptional way of connecting with the wedding couple and guests, that I thought was refreshingly creative. I and others enjoyed every sentence she delivered so remarkably well, she has a unique talent in what she does. - Mark Dempster
Thanks Rachael, 05-12-2010
We are extremely fortunate to have had Rachael Schepers as our marriage celebrant. Rachaels warm, laid-back approach was a perfect fit for us, and it meant that we were able to work together and quickly develop a ceremony that was ideal for us.
Rachael was extremely professional in tailoring a ceremony for us that was everything that we wanted, it was informal, fairly untraditional and relaxed, but at the same time a very public demonstration of our bond, and allowed our personalities to shine through. Mark&Kelly Curr
