Let’s be honest… Being an excellent celebrant doesn’t automatically mean you’re a booked-out celebrant.
If you’ve ever thought:
- Why aren’t more people finding me?
- What on earth do I even post on social media?
- I know I’m good at this… so why does it feel so hard to grow my business?
…then this workshop is for you.
Join our CANZ communications manager and Christchurch celebrant Kineta Knight Booker for a dynamic, ideas-packed Zoom workshop designed to help you attract more clients, build your profile, and position yourself as a sought-after celebrant in your community.
Whether you’re just starting out or ready to take things to the next level, this session will give you practical tools, fresh inspiration, and real strategies you can start using immediately.
What You’ll Learn

What to post, how to stand out, and how to attract your ideal couples and families.
Smart business development strategies
Grow your income, build strong industry relationships, and create opportunities beyond the ceremony itself.
How to raise your public profile

No fluff. Just genuinely useful content, prompts, and strategies.
Who This Is For
- New celebrants wanting to build confidence and bookings
