How do you want your ceremony to feel? Personal – Meaningful – Fun – Non-Traditional

Personal: Your relationship and your story are unique. Let’s make your ceremony fit and celebrate you two as a couple and what marriage and commitment mean to you! Meaningful: Your wedding ceremony is so much more than the legal stuff before the party. Let’s make it truly special, inspiring and touching, and something that you and your guests will talk about and remember! Fun: Your relationship is your perfect mixture of love and laughter! Smiles and chuckles and even belly laughs should be part of your ceremony alongside the emotional moments. Non-Traditional: There are no requirements or rules, only what matters most to you two. Let’s work together to create a ceremony that celebrates who you are and kicks off your wedding in an authentic way! You’ve chosen to walk through life side-by-side with your favorite person, and you want to truly celebrate your commitment. Let’s celebrate that moment in a genuine way, with a beautiful and memorable ceremony that is special and meaningful to you! A ceremony worthy of what you two share. Delivered in a professional and caring way.

Past Couples and Wedding Industry Colleagues, can you *please* take a few minutes to write a review for me? This not only helps future couples find me and choose to reach out, when they hear in your words what it was like to work together, it also helps me to qualify for awards from and

And if you’ve already written one and posted it in one place, can I please ask for you to share it somewhere else, too?

The most important place is Google, of course, for SEO purposes, as many couples search for their vendors that way - plus, I have the fewest there as I didn’t start asking for those until much more recently. Yes, not only can couples leave reviews on Google, but colleagues absolutely can as well!

Then both The Knot and WeddingWire are important for couples using those platforms to research vendors, plus there is a minimum number needed to qualify for the annual awards (and I still need a few on both platforms by 12/31 to qualify this year!). So, I’d so appreciate it if my couples could also review me on these platforms.

THANK YOU!!!

TWO PERSPECTIVES but all filled with joy! There were many things that were really special for me about celebrating this beautiful family - marrying them twice (thanks COVID) and having met them at a previous couple’s wedding being at the top of the list - and it all contributed to extra joy and extra connection. So there was no doubt that their adorable kiddos would be in the right? 📷
