Perfect Fit

Sherry was amazing! She was super responsive to any correspondence. She met with us virtually and walked us through the service. She was on time for the service, she coached my maid of honour and I on how to hold our bouquets for pictures, conducted a beautiful ceremony and then surprised us with a special little gift to remind us of our love throughout the years to come! I highly recommend her for your own beautiful wedding ceremony!

A real sweetheart!

Shelley is the most sincere officiant we've ever met. She walked us through the entire ceremony process, before and after. She talked to us in depth about our relationship and how we envisioned the ceremony, and got details from our friends and family to write a beautiful and personal ceremony script. She even helped us individually with putting the ideas we had about what we wanted to promise into eloquent vows (Shelley help me write this review!)
Unfortunately she wasn't able to make it to the ceremony last minute due to an emergency, but even then she arranged for a backup officiant without needing any involvement from us and minimized the stress from such a last minute disruption.
She really put us at ease throughout the whole process, and we would recommend her for anyone else getting married.

Oh D&V Thank You❣️
It was such a joy to get to know you two and your love story. It was a shock on so many levels to be in emergency with a loved one the early morning of your wedding day, knowing I would miss officiating for you and grateful to have an excellent network that can truly step in seamlessly at the very last minute.
May your love continue to grow daily❤️

Very helpful and friendly

Shelley was very friendly and genuine. She helped us with preparing for the ceremony by making sure we had the right documents ahead of the day and was overall very pleasant.

Highly recommend

Shelley is an AMAZING officiant and I highly recommend her from start to finish. If you are looking for someone who is genuine, calm, thoughtful with the details, helps you be present in the moment, and truly makes your ceremony feel individualized and specially designed for you, then this is your person. She is part of a group of officiants and reached out to us after one of the individuals we had contacted was not available. We are incredibly happy she found us. She makes sure the service is what you are looking for and offers lots of guidance to help tailor it to what you want, even when you start off not knowing what you want. She went above and beyond to basically assist with coordinating our guests for the ceremony for us on the day of (we did not have a wedding coordinator) and allowed it to start on time. She had kleenex ready, mints in hand, and spoke eloquently telling the story of us. She gave encouragement during moments of nervousness and direction in moments of uncertainty throughout the ceremony to make it all work beautifully.

She will mail the papers for you after with a tracking number, provides you details/costs for the paperwork component with the province, provides a Zoom rehearsal, prompt responses, and significant support with the important reminder to enjoy the process in spite of the stress before it's all over.

Really. She is amazing and I am confident that she will have hundreds of reviews all with 5 stars in no time, so book her if/while you can.

Thanks Shelley!

Shelley was absolutely wonderful! She officiated a very small and casual backyard ceremony for us and was extremely accommodating. It was exactly what we were looking for and would highly recommend!

Engaged, personable and fun officiant

Shelley was wonderful from start to finish. Her professionalism, fun spirit and energy was exactly what we wanted in an officiant. She was very communicative, flexible and engaged throughout the planning process from our love story questionnaire, vows, marriage license, to the ceremony processional and afterwards. She made the ceremony run so smoothly and made us feel comfortable and confident. She even went above and beyond for us by helping our coordinator with her responsibilities.

Shelley is truly a pleasure to work with and we will always remember how special our ceremony was because of her part in it. Thank you Shelley!

Shelley is Fantastic

Shelley is a fantastic officiant who really made the process smooth and painless. She walked us through each step in the preliminary call and then walked us through it all again in the rehearsal she did with us the week before. Her words were beautiful and she made sure we understood exactly what to do at any given moment absolutely effortlessly. Would highly recommend her services to anyone.

Thank you so much John and Fan. Your backyard wedding was so personal and I love it when overseas family is included by technology! I will also say John, your vows to Fan were the words the greatest love stories are based on.
I know you two will have an extraordinary life of love together.

Thank you so much Jaleh and Zach ❤️.
Your love story was a dream to write and share (even translating to Persian for your parents). It was also a natural instinct to move rocks, sticks, and debris from the beach to create your vision of the sun, the waves, the trees, and your loved ones surrounding you as you committed to forever together. It was beautiful.

I wish you a lifetime of extraordinary together.
