Patient and Accommodating

We contacted Sarah within a month of our ceremony after reading countless reviews about her amazing service. We opted for an intimate wedding and really liked the reviews that stated how personalized her service was. The initial phone call was very relaxed. She asked us questions to get a better idea of what kind of couple we are, and she gave us a summary of her work and how she would go about crafting a ceremony uniquely for us. Sarah has been in the business for a long time and her expertise is definitely reflective of that. Once booked, she invited us to her home to go over the details of the ceremony and what to expect on the day. She was kind and patient with all of the questions that we had, and included us in the editing process for the readings that she had written. She also made sure to go over both the readings and itinerary multiple times so that we understood all that was required. With less than a month to go, Sarah made us feel welcomed in her home and prepared for the ceremony. On the day of, her words brought tears to our eyes and evoked laughter from our guests. We would absolutely recommend having Sarah for your ceremony and honestly cannot say enough good things about her service.

A personalized, unique ceremony!

Sarah officiated our wedding this summer, and created a unique and personalized ceremony that reflected the two of us as a couple. It was the perfect blend of serious and lighthearted, and many of our guests commented on how lovely they found the ceremony. We enjoyed working with Sarah and her assistant, Gloria over the past year of wedding planning, as they were always quick to respond, flexible, and accommodating. Thank you so much, Sarah, for making our day so wonderful!

Wonderful and professional!

Sarah officiated our wedding in November and we couldn't have been happier! She really took the time to get to know us and deliver a service that was perfectly "us," and so many of our family and friends commented on how lovely it was and how she really captured the essence of our relationship. We highly recommend Sarah!

Sarah was amazing! In fact she made the "officiant" part of my wedding the easiest by far. Sarah was understanding, flexible and able to provide us with EXACTLY what we wanted. For context, we wanted a non denominational wedding (not religious) and she hit it out of the park. During the ceremony she made everyone feel at ease, she was funny and endearing. Sarah took the time to get to know both myself and my husband and it showed. She was thorough and the attention to detail was second to none. It felt as though we were being married by a friend that had known us for years. I can't tell you how lucky I feel to have found someone so professional and experienced. Thank you Sarah for everything! I highly recommend Sarah.

Sarah was so helpful in answering all of our questions leading up to the wedding, and her expertise and experience made us feel confident in having chosen her as our officiant. I had always thought of the wedding ceremony as a formality that we just had to get through in order to get to the fun, however I can honestly say that our ceremony was one of the best parts of our wedding. Many of our guests have also said that it was one of the best ceremonies they have ever witnessed. I think one reason for this is that Sarah personalizes each of her services and is very prepared ahead of time so our ceremony was true to us as a couple and went very smoothly. Thank you Sarah for making our wedding so memorable! I would highly recommend Sarah to any couple looking for a wedding officiant!

A wonderful choice for an officiant!

Sarah married my wife and I almost 19 years ago at the Glenerin Inn Mississauga. From the first meeting we had with her we knew things woul be perfect. She made the day every bit as wonderful as we had hoped it would be. We looked her up today to recommend to friends of ours. She will tailor-make the ceremony to what you would like and make it perfect.

Home Wedding Thanksgiving Weekend

After many hurdles, Abey and I obtained a marriage license the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. As our friends and family were coming for dinner on that Saturday we decided to include a wedding.
The next job was to find an officiant. A friend recommended Sarah and lucky for us she was available. I had a couple of conversations with Sarah explaining our relationship and what we wanted in a wedding.
Sarah took those conversations and was able to make our wedding day so personal and special. She knew who to acknowledge t during the ceremony and made sure everyone felt part of the event.
Sarah worked with us at the event which was an at home wedding with last minute friends, neighbours showing up. There were even a few dogs thrown in for good luck. She kept us both on track and made suggestions to keep things running smoothly. i think she may have even stirred a pot or two and dinner was being cooked during the ceremony.

Sarah is intuitive and kind. She thinks of things a couple may forget, or not even consider. Our wedding was such a happy occasion and a lot of that can be attributed to Sarah's guidance.

Ceremony that felt like us

Sarah officiated our wedding on September 14th, 2019. We selected Sarah has our wedding officiant after reading many positive reviews on the internet and having our first meeting with Sarah. Although we did not know Sarah personally before we embarked on our wedding planning, Sarah was able to make our wedding ceremony incredibly touching and true to who we are as a couple, which was exactly what we hoped for and wanted in our ceremony. The homework that Sarah provides you to get to know you as a couple is so invaluable to complete and she had the most eloquent way of pulling all of that together to create a beautiful story of our love to share with our guests. Thank you Sarah - we had so many guests sharing with us how much they loved our ceremony and that it felt like 'us'.

Sarah created the most beautiful service for us, our family and guests haven't stopped talking about it to this day. If you would like a ceremony customized and tailored to both of you, we would highly recommend Sarah to every couple about to embark on the wedding journey!
