Reviews of Queenstown Celebrant - Phillipa Cook
M. M.Absolutely an incredible experience. Phillipa made our planning process so much easier than we thought possible. We felt relaxed and we couldn't recommend anyone better suited for the role. Our experience was not just easy and calm but also enjoyable. We will treasure these memories forever and we cannot thank her enough.
D.We started speaking to Phillipa in 2001 as we were getting married in Queenstown's Chapel by the lake and felt that after reading her biography she would be perfect to marry us. We are English and travelled from the UK and after various emails and phone calls we arrived at the perfect ceremony for us.
Throughout this process Philippa was incredibly sensitive to our needs and helped us make decisions by offering options and alternatives. This resulted in a perfect wedding day cherished by Amy and me forever. Phillipa's caring delivery made the service very special and was loved by our guests.
The story doesn't stop there as we decided to renew our wedding vows after spending 20 years of marriage together. I contacted Phillipa just before Christmas 2021 and asked whether she would perform the renewal of our vows over the video network zoom as we were in the UK. Once again her approach was amazing. She was keen to make the celebration personal to us and we exchanged dialogue over a couple of months until the important day.
The day was perfect and the rather emotional ceremony once again delivered with feeling by Phillipa was incredible. This isn't just a job for her, she gets involved with the couples she marries and takes great pleasure in their union.
I would say to anyone looking to get married in Queenstown, New Zealand Phillipa Cook is the perfect celebrant to perform the most important role on your day. The venue Chapel on the Lake is idyllic and we were lucky enough many years ago to be helicoptered to the venue (although this isn't allowed any more). 5 star service!
A. M.Phillipa was a lovely celebrant and we are really grateful that we spent our special day with her. She assisted and well informed us on what to do before the ceremony and all went well naturally.
d. s.Philippa was the celebrant for the wedding of my son and daughter in law. My son was so nervous as he is very shy but Philippa went over and above in helping to make their ceremony relaxed and kept it light and happy. They wanted a semi-casual atmosphere filled with laughter and happiness and she added just enough formality to make it a perfect blend. I'd highly recommend Philippa as your celebrant.
S. W.We LOVE Phillipa! We've been lucky enough to work with her for many years now and she continues to impress with her professionalism, kindness, gentle humour and obvious love for being a celebrant. Looking forward to many more years working together, helping happy couples start off their marriages in style!
N. M.I run a wedding company called aMoment Wedding in Queenstown and we work with Phillipa Cook on many many weddings. It's absolute pleasure to work with Phillipa. She's one of the best wedding celebrants in Queenstown who writes beautiful ceremony wording, is easy & fun to communicate with, conducts the ceremony seamlessly and always, always dress perfectly. We recommend Phillipa Cook to all couples looking for a trustworthy celebrant.
D.I have been working with Phillipa for, well let's say a few years now and she is an absolute joy to work alongside. Phillipa has a beautiful calming and gentle nature about her. Sometimes things don't always go to plan at a wedding and Phillipa knows how to make light of the situation and make everyone laugh and enjoy the moment. Totally recommend.
J. N.Phillipa was a truly amazing. She made our day special and offered my beautiful bride her jacket in the subzero temperatures. She spent her time practicing the difficult ceremony lines that we asked to be added in and she executed them flawlessly. This really made our day perfect. Highly recommend Phillipa to anyone looking for a celebrant for their wedding.
J. S.Phillipa was such a lovely celebrant, she guided us through all union process and vows. Our ceremony was perfect. Thank you, Phillipa Cook.
S. F.Phillipa made our first legal marriage a really special day, after nearly 30 years together. Thank you Phillipa for honouring our wishes for a small intimate wedding. You took the time to understand us and what we were about which made the day meaningful for us and our friends. Thank you!
C.Phillipa was amazing! She put together such a beautiful ceremony with such ease and was a pleasure to deal with
C. A.Philipa was amazing throughout the whole process. It is evident that she has a lot of experience and knowledge and guided us through the process with ease. She was kind and really invested in our story and put a lot of effort into personalizing the ceremony for us. We had to postpone our original date due to covid, and Phillipa was the first to reach out and provide additional support. We had the most beautiful, relaxed and stress-free ceremony as a result. We could not recommend her enough, and will definitely use her should we need to get married again 😉
Thank you Phillipa!
Cathy & Joel
A. E.Working with Phillipa was a breeze. She made our wedding process easier with her guidance. She tailored a heartfelt wedding ceremony based on our personal story and gave us insights with our vows. She was kind, accommodating and made us feel at ease during the ceremony. Thank you for being part of our special day Phillipa! ♥️ Arianelle & Nico
T. A.We met Phillipa two weeks before our wedding date - yes, just two weeks. At first, we were hesitant as we were quite on a tight timing but Phillipa told us that our wedding should be about my partner David and I. That the ceremony should reflect what we envisioned it to be. That a marriage ceremony is not about being lavish but a reflection of our commitment as life partners. And so we eloped last June 13, 2020 --Phillipa's first wedding ceremony right after lockdown. It was a really beautiful ceremony. From our ceremonial piece, which was whole-heartedly written by Phillipa to the very picturesque Lake Wakatipu in the background. We had an amazing and beautiful wedding. Thank you Phillipa for being part of our celebration of love. For guiding us through the process and giving us insights. You are awesome and commend you for a job well-done. Our wedding couldn't have been more perfect. Weeks, months and years from now, we will always look back to that wonderful sunny Saturday on top of that beautiful natural stone structure overlooking the quiet blue expanse of Lake Wakatipu, with your melodic voice narrating our love story in the background. Maraming, maraming salamat!❤️❤️❤️
a. u.We are fortunate having Phillipa as our marriage celebrant. She's so sweet, friendly and very helpful in giving us ideas on our vows. She prepared a beautiful, very emotional and heart warming ceremony. We are really grateful having Phillipa on our special day. Highly recommended.
T. S.Phillipa was excellent in guiding my partner and I through the ceremony process. She was very thoughtful, often pointing out things easily missed. The ring warming was a nice touch to our ceremony and we only found it through Phillipa's services.
Z. A.Phillipa was an absolute gem to work with for our ceremony. She was very helpful and provided great guidance, but let us put our own spin on things and make it our own. She also gave us some great tips during our rehearsal which made the day go more smoothly. I'd recommend her any day! Thank you Phillipa for helping make our day so wonderful.
B. P.Phillipa is the most outstanding & passionate celebrant. The ceremony was so personal, intimate and simply beautiful. She has such a warm personality and her passion for weddings is evident in everything she does. We appreciated the great communication before the wedding, which made us feel very calm on our wedding day. She made our day the most special and memorable experience of our lives, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone!
H. P.Phillipa was amazing as our wedding celebrant. She was very efficient and organised and also made everything that much easier on our special day.
Whether you plan on having a big family wedding to a small intimate ceremony or even eloping like myself and my wife... I highly recommend you get in touch with Phillipa, so she can too, make your day just as special as ours.
L. P.We decided to get married abroad and booked our wedding through an online agency. It’s very hard to know via email whether the people involved in your wedding will be the ‘right fit’, however from the moment we met Phillipa at the ceremony rehearsal, we knew she was the perfect fit for us. Phillipa is the perfect combination of professionalism, humour, dedication and passion with a pinch of sass. For two very private people, Phillipa was able to make our wedding feel completely and utterly normal and relaxed - so thank you! We would highly recommend Phillipa to anyone looking for a celebrant.
R. F.We were truly blessed having Phillipa officiate at our wedding. Her relaxed, friendly, professional style was perfect. Great communication. She listened to our requirements, offered ideas and solutions and together we came up with something that we felt fitted our personalities and wedding style. Thanks Phillipa for being part of our perfect day. Highly recommend.
V. L.We had Phillipa recommended to us and from the emails beforehand to first meeting her just before taking off in the helicopter her warm embracing smile made us feel at ease like we were with a friend we’d known for years.
She personalised our ceremony perfectly, so much so I spent most of it crying tears of joy!
Thank you so much Phillipa, you made our day.
D. H.Phillipa was more than we could have asked for. She is friendly, humourous and very well prepared. I feel she captured our story very well which made our day extra special. I would recommend her 1000 times over.
Thank you so much Phillipa for all the work you put in!
H. B.I've attended several local weddings where Phillipa has been the marriage celebrant and can attest to her sensitivity, care and absolute professionalism with each and every one of them. Phillipa certainly goes the extra mile to create a truly personal and memorable occasion for all involved. I would thoroughly recommend her services to anyone looking to create their own special day!
f. v.Phillipa is God-sent. She is very warm, kind, thoughtful and super genuine. She goes beyond when it comes to helping you achieve your dream wedding. We just can't thank her enough! Thank you Phillipa! May you continue to touch the lives of others the best way you can.❤️❤️❤️
J. J.Phillipa Cook was very helpful in creating and conducting our wedding ceremony in October 2020
with attention to detail and helpful suggestions to make it personal to us.

H. C.Phillipa did a wonderful job of our wedding ceremony in Queenstown earlier this month. With a really quick turnaround she provided plenty of guidance and ideas. She went the extra mile to ensure everything was as smooth as possible for us.
I would highly recommend Phillipa for your special day.
R.I have worked with Phillipa in the wedding industry for over 10 years now and have come to know her very well. Being Queenstown’s most experienced celebrant she is absolutely committed to her couples, delivering beautiful ceremonies time after time. She has mastered the subtle art of being very relaxed but extremely professional at the same time. When I turn up to shoot a wedding and see Phillipa there I know I’m in for a good time!
R.I'd like to put forward some words here to describe the lovely Phillipa. I've worked alongside Phillipa for a number of years here in Queenstown. I have experienced many ceremonies through my lense with Phillipa in her role as celebrant during the most important and meaningful part of any couple's wedding day, their ceremony.
Phillipa is truly everything you could wish for in a celebrant she is elegant, beautifully spoken, sincere, caring, calming and organised and along with her fun nature she just loves what she does and it shows.
S. R.Phillipa is an absolute star! She made the planning of our ceremony so easy, successfully wrangled a very wilfull wedding party and injected some well placed humour into the ceremony as the rain begin to fall. Her warmth and professionalism really helped make our day a magical experience that we will never forget.
O. S.Phillipa made preparations for our ceremony and vows a breeze and really felt us feel at ease. She delivered a beautiful ceremony and we appreciated the heartfelt ness of the words. Thank you Phillipa
A. N.Phillipa Cook is THE celebrant to use for weddings in Queenstown. Phillipa came very highly recommended and exceeded our expectations in every single way. Most importantly, Phillipa put us at ease and coordinated the ceremony with a minimum of fuss, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy the experience. We cannot recommend Phillipa highly enough.
Adam and Michael.
R. P.Phillipa was amazing!!! She was very efficient, organised and made sure every word had a personal touch to it, inspite of the short notice and time crunch. Her expertise in explaining the process and pre/post communication made everything that much easier. To those planning their big day in Queenstown, get in touch with Phillipa, so she can make your day just as special!!!
S. J.I attended Shaun and Kate's wedding earlier this year and Phillipa was wonderful as the celebrant. She was professional, kind, and calm, and definitely helped to make the wedding a wonderful day for the bride and groom.
T. I.I attended a wedding where Phillipa was the Celebrant. It was a beautiful service and it was clear Phillipa spoke from the heart. She was professional, yet also warm and sincere. I highly recommend her ❤️
C. C.Phillipa was absolutely amazing, she guided my husband and I through the whole process at very short notice. Our ceremony was perfect we couldn't have wished for anything better. Thank you Phillipa
R. T.I highly recommend Phillipa for a Queenstown wedding!
Phillipa was super easy to work with and really helped us a lot when planning our elopement ceremony in Queenstown. Our ceremony was exactly what we wanted and we felt very relaxed throughout which was perfect. Thank you so much Phillipa!!
C. M.Phillipa, thank you so much for helping us make this a very special day. You put some beautiful words together that described our relationship and lives together so succinctly that it was very emotional for both of us. A truly memorable experience with much thought and consideration going into the ceremony. Thank you also to Heather for the tissues!
Carole & Ron
B. L.You took all the stress out of planning our wedding ceremony, you very quickly figured out whats important to us as a couple and tailored a beautiful ceremony to show that, what was initially quite daunting you made streamlined and seamless making our wedding day everything we could have wanted and more.
Thank you so much Phillipa!
N. G.I took photos for a very small, intimate wedding and it was such a great experience. The Celebrant was so professional, yet friendly, and presented the ceremony with warmth and words from her heart. It was easy to see that she loves her role.
