Beautiful ceremony by an amazing officiant

There was never any question about who our officiant would be for our wedding, it was always, always going to be Tammy. We had both seen her in action at multiple weddings and each time we were so impressed by her beautiful ceremonies.

As expected, working with Tammy was a dream. We had no idea where to start and she took the time to walk us through the process step by step. She worked with us to create a beautiful ceremony that felt true to who we are as a couple. Tammy was very responsive, so professional and a joy to work with.

Tammy, thank you so much for being a part of our special day and making it more beautiful than we could ever imagine.

Smooth experience

Tammy was wonderful; she's super nice, easy going. She gave us a couple different ceremony notes on our preferences on how we want it to be.
Everything just went smoothly!

Went above and beyond

My husband and I truly can’t put into words how amazing Tammy was as our officiant. She went above and beyond for us and was so well organized and prepared. She has such a calming way about her that really helps for a stressed out bride! She did such a beautiful job at the ceremony, and was so accommodating to our personal preferences while also offering us tips and tricks to make it flow smoothly. I would absolutely recommend Tammy to anyone!

A perfect choice

Tammy did a fantastic job officiating our ceremony! She was professional and organized ahead of time, so we felt well-prepared for the day. She was very great at getting to know us and developing a ceremony that was just the right amount of sentimental for us, and guided us through picking readings and other aspects that we didn't know anything about. She was also very accommodating with our unfortunate rescheduling. I'd highly recommend Tammy!

Tammy was wonderful to work with, we had been emailing back and forth up until my wedding day, plus she helped us do our ceremony rehearsal. She is definitely amazing.

The best officiant EVER!

We used Tammy as our wedding officiant and she was absolutely amazing. Tammy is professional, caring and phenomenal at her job. She met with us prior to the wedding to get to know us, provide suggestions (as we felt VERY lost with where to start) and put our minds at ease. Tammy kept in contact with us and always provided prompt responses. Tammy came to our rehearsal dinner and made things run smoothly and again, helped put our minds at ease. Our ceremony was effortless and I can’t recommend Tammy enough. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Tammy is Great!

Tammy was so awesome, she made us feel at ease while preparing for our wedding. Gave us a ton of different ceremony choices, and followed through with having our ceremony be non-religious. She was easy to get a hold of, and always ready to answer any questions we had. And best of all, she was SO funny. She had all of our guests laughing and having a great time during the ceremony.

Our ceremony was perfect!

Tammy was incredible! She was very helpful and flexible in allowing us to customize our ceremony to make it personal and super meaningful. She provided us resources to look at and we were able to write our own parts as well. Our ceremony was perfect because of how great a job Tammy did!

Tammy is a beautiful soul who makes you feel as if you have known her for a lifetime.

Tammy is a beautiful soul who makes you feel as if you have known her for a lifetime. We met once on zoom, and then in person 15 mins before the ceremony and we could not have been in better hands or felt more comfortable on our big day. Tammy created a truly magical ceremony for us and we are over the moon! Her calm and comforting energy is just what couple's need as they say I do.
