    Fall wedding 2024

    Rachel was our celebrant for our small wedding this fall. Firstly, she is a joy to work with - a lovely and kind person all around and we really enjoyed all our of our meetings and conversations with her. Rachel crafted a very special ceremony that was perfect in every way - personal, intimate, light hearted and truly poetic. In getting to know Rachel we felt as if she was part of the family on our wedding day. All of our family and friends had positive interactions with Rachel and had nothing but great things to say about the ceremony and Rachel as a person. Thanks again Rachel!
    Kailee & John

    Perfect day!

    Highly recommend Rachel for any wedding. We live over 4 hours away and spent time researching different vendors for our Tobermory elopement. It can be tough to connect with someone over the phone but Rachel was so warm and personable that we felt an instant connection despite not meeting face-to-face. We spent time getting to know each other and she really learned about us and our love journey. She wrote a beautiful and personal ceremony that truly embodied our story. When we met Rachel in person, it was like meeting a friend. She was so professional, approachable and made the day complete. Thank you!

    Rachel Edwards, Wedding Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you Tara! Your words touch my heart, and my heart was so full on the day of your wedding. Your family and friends surrounded you with so much love. I felt like I was meeting old friends when I saw your faces too! I wish you both and your family so much love! Come back and visit :) PHOTO Credit to DAVID and SHERRY BUCK PHOTOGRAPHY

    Beautiful Ceremony

    Rachel was absolutely wonderful to work with for our September 2024 wedding. She made sure to include personalized details, and I felt like she truly understood our love. She is professional, flexible and understanding. 100% recommend her services.

    Rachel Edwards, Wedding Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words! Your ceremony was rich in ritual, music and love! I wish you both so much love xo

    Highly recommend Rachel for all weddings!!

    Rachel worked with us to do our own ceremony our way. We loved it! She even suggested a tradition from our background, were you cut a piece of a log with a saw and the couple does it together to signify our past and future coming together.
    We even had wedding security and they had nerf guns and when Rachel ask if anyone objected (which isn’t normally in a ceremony anymore) our wedding security our niece and. Nephew stood behind us and acted like they would hit someone with a nerf bullet if they objected. It was amazing. Thank you Rachel. You made our day amazing.

    Rachel Edwards, Wedding Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant's reply:

    We had such fun didn't we? I was a little afraid of your wedding security, they meant business! I was honoured and so happy to be a part of your wonderful wedding ceremony, the love you two share is awesome and the love of your family that surrounded you touched my heart! You were both also amazing with your saws!!

    The most beautiful ceremony we could ever imagine!

    We felt so connected to Rachel from our very first phone call, where we found so many things in common and felt like total kindred spirits.

    She wrote the most beautiful ceremony we could ever imagine! It was so personal and intimate, and she worked in ideas we had while also contributing many special ideas of her own. The church where we got married has never had the doors locked in over 100 years, and she wrote such a meaningful passage relating that to our life and marriage and keeping our hearts open.

    We had guests, many in tears, remarking how they didn’t realize a ceremony could be so moving without being religious. It was emotional and funny and joyful and it just felt like us. There was a feeling in the room that Rachel cultivated that we will never forget, love was everywhere. We wouldn’t change a thing and would hire Rachel again and again. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

    Rachel Edwards, Wedding Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you Rachael, your words mean so much to me! Maybe it's something to do with your name but I think people with that name are special :). It was an absolute pleasure to work with you and get to know you and your love story. The atmosphere surrounding us in that beautiful, peaceful building was incredible and I won't ever forget it. I wish you and your family so much love and happiness!

    Shannon & Korey’s Tobermory Wedding

    We got married on a private boat with Tobermory Wave Adventures. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Rachel answered everything in a timely manner, had answers to all of our questions, helped us feel at ease with the flow of everything and provided a personal touch to our day. She faced huge waves, got absolutely drenched and still had a smile while she officiated our wedding. I would work with her again and again (if “I do” wasn’t a one time thing). I couldn’t thank Rachel enough for all her hard work on our day!

    Rachel Edwards, Wedding Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant's reply:

    Shannon, I had so much fun! I want to be known as the "Seafaring Celebrant" now! Thank you so much for including me in your very special wedding. It was lovely to celebrate you and celebrate with your family and friends on a boat in the beautiful bay! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I want to celebrate your 10th anniversary in the same cove okay?

    Better than we ever imagined

    My husband and I held an intimate elopement this past Saturday with a few of our closet friends and family, Rachel was our officiant. She took the time to ask questions, get to know us as individuals and as a couple. Our wedding wouldn't have been as perfect or magical as it was without her. She took the time to make our ceremony very personalized to us, through her own words and through poems she read that suited who we are as people, how our life is together and the couple we continue to be. Words could not describe how wonderful she is nor how highly we recommend her to any engaged couple looking for the perfect officiant for their upcoming ceremony. She also took the time to make us a ceremony package after our wedding which we will cherish for years and years to come

    Rachel Edwards, Wedding Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much Mellissa! It was a beautiful, intimate gathering as you celebrated with your loved ones an awesome love story! It was an honour to tell that love story and to officiate your wedding. I wish your family so much love! I'm including two beautiful pictures thanks to @saramartinphotoartistry

    Incredible

    Rachel is amazing to work with. She is so warm and welcoming and makes you feel like you’ve known each other for years. Her ability to adapt and change on the spot is amazing and we would definitely recommend her to anyone!

    Rachel Edwards, Wedding Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words Shelby! It was a pleasure to meet you both and to celebrate you and your family! It was wonderful to see the love that surrounded you and not even a little rain could dampen anyone's spirits! I wish you all the best for your future!
