You're the main characters not the event managers
But that's not how this story is meant to go.
You should be soaking up all the moments that make your heart skip ~ not spiralling because of un-fun admin.
You probably didn't see yourself spending all your waking hours comparing quotes, with 69 tabs open, colour coding spreadsheets & wondering how wedding planning turned into an unpaid second job you never applied for.

"It truly felt like we had our very own wedding Fairy Godmother watching over everything."
Emotionally Invested
Getting to sprinkle a little extra magic over them? That's the greatest privilege of my life.
Because you're never just another booking in a calendar.
One of my favourite parts of this wedding journey is helping you fall in love with your story all over again.
let's make some magic!
I intentionally work with a select number of couples each year so your wedding receives the care, creativity and attention it fully deserves.
You'll still be talking about those iconic moments on your 25th wedding anniversary.
The butterflies before you walk down the aisle.
The happy tears.
The guest giggles in all the right places.
That blissed out feeling that you're finally doing this! You're getting married to the only person you can imagine growing old with.
meet your Wedding Fairy Godmother!
Hobsonville Point is my home ~ centrally located for weddings across Auckland, making it easy to celebrate your love story wherever your wedding venue is. From Central Auckland, North Shore, West Auckland, South Auckland, Waiheke Island, Matakana & beyond, I'll be there!
I still have a few precious dates left this year & I'm taking bookings for next year. Remember, I only look after a handful of couples each season, so you get the full fairy godmother treatment.

hello@luckyinloveweddings.nz
Whether you're dreaming of an all-inclusive small wedding in Auckland, looking for a fun Auckland marriage celebrant, wedding MC or need wedding planning support, I'm here to help you create a wedding that's all about more butterflies, less admin.
You're getting married!
Tell me everything and I'll be in touch within 24 hours (unless I'm sipping cocktails somewhere tropical).
how freaking exciting!
In the meantime, see all the wedding fun here:
If you're getting legally married in New Zealand, yes ~ you'll need a licensed marriage celebrant to make it official.
But here's the thing... your ceremony shouldn't just tick a legal box. It should be the moment everyone remembers. The happy tears. The guest giggles. The butterflies. The part where the world fades away and, for a few blissed out minutes, it's just the two of you in your love bubble. That's the kind of personalised wedding ceremony I love creating.
Most definitely ~ and honestly, it just makes sense. Instead of handing your wedding day from one stranger to another, you'll have one calm, familiar face guiding everything from your "I do" right through to your 1st dance. You stay present with your favourite people. I'll keep the timeline running smoothly behind the scenes and keep your guests captivated for all key wedding reception moments!
Yes! This is exactly why I created my wedding planning support. Whether you need a one-off planning session, someone to sense-check your ideas or a wedding fairy godmother to coach you through the tricky bits. I'll help you swap spreadsheets and late-night stress for more butterflies and so much more fun.
Perfect. Neither do I.
Every couple has a different story, different personalities and different reasons for standing at the altar. Your ceremony should celebrate that ~ not sound like it came from a template. We'll create something that's heartfelt, personal and 100% 'you'.
Not at all! While Lucky in Love is famous for all-inclusive small weddings in Auckland, at the Little White Chapel, I also create unforgettable ceremonies for couples planning bigger celebrations. Tiny guest list? Huge dance floor? The sweet spot in between? I'm here for all of it.
I do. Hobsonville Point is home, which means I'm perfectly positioned for weddings across Central Auckland, the North Shore, West Auckland, East Auckland, South Auckland, Waiheke Island, Matakana and beyond. If you've found the perfect place to say "I do", I'll meet you there. Whether it's a vineyard, beach, backyard or boujee city bar!
The sooner, the better. I intentionally work with a limited number of couples each year so every wedding gets my whole heart, not just a spot in my calendar. Popular dates can disappear quickly, especially during peak summer wedding season. And I don't want you to miss out on all the fairy godmother goodness!
Because your big day isn't just another booking for me. It's your once-in-a-lifetime moment. I'll bring everything I've learnt from celebrating hundreds of love stories over the past 10+ years ~ and pour the same wholehearted care, creativity and attention into your wedding day that I poured into my very own. Because one day, this won't just be your wedding day... it'll be one of your favourite memories.
YES! Aotearoa / New Zealand is one of the easiest places in the world for overseas couples to get married. Whether you're travelling from Australia, the UK, the USA or anywhere else in the world, I'd love to help make your NZ wedding simple, stress-free and unforgettable. Every country has different requirements for recognising a New Zealand marriage back home, so I'll also point you in the right direction if there's anything extra you'll need.
Take a deep breath... and enjoy it!
You don't need to have everything figured out this week. Celebrate, tell your favourite people and soak up this once-in-a-lifetime moment. When you're ready, I'll help you work out what comes next, one simple step at a time. Wedding planning doesn't have to feel overwhelming when you've got someone guiding you along the way.
Inside this fill-in-your-own Wedding Glow-Up guide, you’ll find the exact first steps to plan your wedding with clarity & confidence.
