Reviews for Circles and Ceremonies
Incredible!
Thank you Joanne for everything and your part in our truly unforgettable day!
Thank you!!
A wonderful officiant!
A Ceremony to Remember
Joanne wrote us an individualized ceremony script, and she changed/adjusted whatever we requested. She was super accommodating and understand.
After our ceremony I had so many of our guests talk about how good and unique the ceremony was. Majority of our guest (we had 188guests) complimented us on it being the best ceremony they've ever heard/attended.
That in itself was worth the extra price we paid for her!
Thank you Joanne for making it one to remember and a ceremony that is going to be talked about for a long time to come!.
