ChCh Celebrant Ana Connor

Celebrant Ana officiates ceremonies throughout Christchurch and Canterbury.

Your wedding ceremony is about your love story. After all, it’s why you’re getting married! Ana’s a CANZ member celebrant who loves to create unique ceremonies with heart and laughter. She will help you to find the words that express your love and guide you through your wedding ceremony. Contact Ana today and meet her to chat about your plans.

Tell us about yourself? I’ve been a celebrant for over 10 years and officiated over 100 weddings. I have a BA in drama and I love to use this training to help couples find just the right words to tell their own love story. I’m a confident and accomplished writer and public speaker. I’m a member of CANZ, and value the professional and collegial support from that organisation. In my day job I work as a manager at Foodstuffs, leading the team that sets up and maintains all the products you can buy at the supermarket. Something fun about me? I love to make things – baking, sewing, crafting, you name it, I will give it a go. I have a bit of a collection of Lego buildings, which I’d like to keep adding to, too.

Tell us about your style? I’m calm and relaxed, with an eye for detail, and I tailor my service to suit each couple.

Best part of any ceremony for you? When a couple exchange vows, and the emotions spill over into tears (and laughter).

Favourite things? Travelling and baking (I donate to GBB). I recently adopted a greyhound called Blaze, who used to race, now she is learning to be a pet.
