June update from The Celebrants Training College

By Debbie Woodfield

Confident. Professional. Ready to Marry.

Becoming a marriage celebrant is about far more than knowing the legal words. It’s about creating ceremonies that feel personal, relaxed, and truly memorable—for the couple and for everyone present.

Our Marriage & Law Course gives you the skills and confidence to do exactly that.

Over a full weekend, you will:

  • Understand the legal requirements and how to deliver them with ease
  • Learn how to write and structure engaging, personalised ceremonies
  • Practise presentation skills so you feel calm and in control on the day
  • Gain practical tools, templates, and real-world insights

You’ll also complete follow-up assignments with personalised feedback—so you’re not just learning, you’re growing.

Whether you’re brand new, or have completed a few weddings, or you may be a funeral celebrant looking to expand into weddings, this course sets you up to deliver ceremonies with professionalism and heart.

Due to special requests, we have added another course in Christchurch, and for the first time in many years, there will be a course taught in Wellington.

Upcoming Dates:
8–9 August (Auckland)
15–16 August (Zoom)
10-11 October (Christchurch)
31 October -1 November (Wellington)
7–8 November (Auckland)
14–15 November (Zoom)

Take the step from “interested” to ready.
