Infomercial queen Suzanne Paul is trying to have a wedding. But in these Covid times it is not so much a case of “wait there’s more” but more waiting.

She and her fiancé Patrick Kuhtze have had to cancel their wedding plans twice.

“Patrick will be my third time-lucky husband and so we’re hoping it will be our third time-lucky wedding,” says Suzanne.

The original wedding was scheduled for October last year but had to be cancelled due to Auckland’s lockdown. Their next ceremony was to take place on April 10, but with the country being in the red setting and in the middle of an Omicron outbreak, the couple had to make the decision to delay it again.

Suzanne also didn’t want to be in the position of hiring a bouncer to check vaccination passes at the door. “It’s my wedding day and I’m not having someone turned away because they forgot to bring their pass. I’d be mortified.”

Suzanne and Patrick are both vaccinated, but she tries to avoid getting involved in the vaccination debate that is sweeping through New Zealand at the moment.

She says she doesn’t want to get into a situation where it’s a matter of “us” and “them”.
