Philippa Thomas Celebrant

Philippa is such a brilliant celebrant. She has such a positive, warm and calming energy which is exactly what we were looking for in a celebrant. From the moment we met Philippa, it was like we'd known her for ages. She was so kind and funny and easy to chat to. Philippa was so enthusiastic during the planning process, providing us with suggestions on writing our vows and helping us make our ceremony unique to us. The ceremony Philippa created for us was so personal, detailed and heartfelt, but not too serious as well which was just so perfect for us. We will always be so grateful to Philippa for creating such a wonderful elopement ceremony for us.

Phillipa was great for our small casual wedding. She communicated well before hand, offered to meet with us when we arrived in Queenstown, and made us relaxed on the day with her friendly good humoured approach. She was the perfect celebrant for us.

We couldnt recommend Philippa any more, 5+++ stars she created a beautiful ceremony that was fun and us. Philippa made us both feel so relaxed on the day and leading up to the special day with her local knowledge! As soon as we met her we had no hesitations that she would be the perfect celebrant for us, and I have no doubt youd feel the same. Best in the biz!

Any celebrant that uses an ice cream analogy in the ceremony is definitely a winner in our books! Philippa married us exactly 3 months ago and we can't help smiling when we think back on the ceremony at Mt Crichton. Philippa wrote such a personal and beautiful ceremony for us and she totally made our wedding even more special :) She was the perfect celebrant for us! And I'm sure she brings her personal touch to all the weddings she officiates, definitely would recommend her to anyone who is marrying in NZ! :)

Philippa was an amazing celebrant for our elopement. We only gave her a few weeks notice, but she managed to make the ceremony perfect for us. The ceremony was so personal and exactly what we wanted. She is so organised and a dream to work with. We would highly recommend!
