Janice Autumn

I have been a Celebrant since 1997 and live in beautiful Amodeo Bay, Colville, just 17kms north of Coromandel Town.

Over the years I have had the privilege of officiating weddings, elopements, commitment ceremonies and funerals throughout the Coromandel Peninsula. I have travelled extensively across the region including Thames, Tairua, Hahei, Whitianga, Matarangi, Cooks Beach, Coromandel and Colville, helping people create meaningful and memorable ceremonies for life’s important moments.

Today, while I still enjoy officiating weddings and elopements, I am also widely recognised within my local community and the wider Coromandel area as an experienced Funeral Celebrant. With around 15 years of funeral celebrancy experience, I continue to undertake ongoing training to ensure I remain current, compassionate and supportive in my work with grieving families. When someone dies, families are often in shock and unsure where to begin. I provide calm guidance, practical support and reassurance during what can be a very emotional and difficult time. Helping families plan a meaningful farewell and sharing the burden of organising a service can make those first days a little easier.

I continue to love being a Marriage Celebrant and helping couples create warm, personal and memorable ceremonies that truly reflect who they are.

Whether celebrating a wedding, commitment ceremony or honouring the life of someone dearly loved, I believe every ceremony should be personal, heartfelt and meaningful.
