About Me
Hi, I’m Ben Cherry.
I’m an Auckland-based marriage celebrant and local pastor who loves helping couples create ceremonies that feel genuine, relaxed and meaningful.
Although originally from Australia, New Zealand is now proudly home for me and my family. After marrying my amazing wife Joelle, I came to truly appreciate how important a wedding ceremony really is. It’s not just the formal part of the day — it’s one of the moments you remember forever.
That experience inspired me to become a marriage celebrant and help other couples create ceremonies that feel completely personal to them.
Experience
Over 12 years of speaking, leading and celebrating with people.
Over the past 12+ years, I’ve had the privilege of speaking at weddings, events and celebrations for people from all walks of life. One of the things I love most about weddings is that no two couples are ever the same — which means no two ceremonies should be either.
Warm
A calm, genuine presence that helps everyone feel comfortable.
Personal
A ceremony shaped around your story, values and style.
Easy
A clear process so you know what to expect at every step.
My approach is simple.
Create ceremonies that feel warm, relaxed, engaging and easy. I want you to feel comfortable throughout the process and genuinely excited about your ceremony — not stressed or overwhelmed.
Whether your wedding is elegant and formal, relaxed and fun, faith-based, modern and simple, large or intimate, I’ll help create a ceremony that feels authentic to your relationship and enjoyable for everyone there.
