Our experience was incredible and seamless!

Connie was an amazing wedding officiant to work with! From the jump, she made my wife and I feel incredibly comfortable and thoroughly went through all that we needed to do. The outline Connie provided for us to customize our ceremony was super helpful and made it easier for us to sort out our ideas.

We thank Connie so much for making our day special! We encourage anyone who is looking for an officiant in the GTA and abroad to book Connie!

Perfect wedding

Connie was such a delight to work with. Very clear communication throughout the planning process. Our ceremony was so beautiful and touching, we will never forget her service. Thank you for being such an important part of our big day. Glad she was our officiant.

A pleasure to work with!

I cannot say enough positive things about Connie and her team. Madison was our day of coordinator and the day would not have gone as smoothly as it did without her! She was able to set up our decor at our venue and helped to navigate all our vendors and guests. This REALLY decreased the stress of the day. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Excellent Experience!

Connie and Nicole were absolutely wonderful to work with. Connie officiated our wedding, she helped us come up with a short and sweet ceremony that not only did we love, but our guests loved to. We were blown away by all the positive feedback we received from our guests ( Your officiant was professional, sweet but the same time funny). Connie really kept our guest engaged. Not only did Connie officiate our wedding, she helped me stay organized leading up to our wedding with reminder emails, spreadsheets and zoom calls.

Nicole our coordinator was also fantastic to work with. She was able to take my notes, pictures off my spreadsheet and bring it all to life. She had every detail out and didn't miss anything. Knowing that Nicole was present from 11am- 2am on our wedding day made me stress free for the day. She helped with set up, checking in all my vendors, food and tear down. Without Nicole, our wedding wouldn't of ran as smoothly as it did ( even with the hiccups we had that Nicole couldn't control).

I would highly recommend these ladies over and over again to ANYONE planning a wedding or event.

The most magical day !

Connie is the best!!! She was both our day of coordinator and officiant. She is super pleasant to work with and made sure everything went perfect on our special day. Connie was quick to answer emails/questions and gave us a lot of great ideas for the wedding. 2 of my friends also used Connie's services and loved her! I would highly recommend Connie to anyone!

BEST wedding investment!

Connie and Nicole were amazing to work with. We originally planned to have Connie and hired to have her for “month of” services. Connie walked us through everything from vendor check ins to day of set up. We did not stress about a single thing as Connie always had a solution or answer to ease us! Unfortunately Connie came down with COVID the weekend before our wedding and we ended up with Nicole. We were disappointed but trusted that Connie left us in great hands. That was seriously an understatement. Nicole was amazing!! I didn’t think I’d end up with someone who was just as amazing as Connie! Nicole helped make sure all the guys were on schedule, coordinated with family and friends to make sure our photos went smoothly and everything was set up as we envisioned it! Nicole was detailed oriented, fun, and didn’t bat an eye at any request that came her way! I cannot recommend Connie and Nicole enough. We had one hiccup with our vendor with not the right wine being provided and Nicole ran out to LCBO during the wedding and delivered two cases to correct the issue! I don’t know how we would have had an amazing seamless wedding day without them! You will not regret hiring them!

The Best Decision You Will Make

Connie is the absolute best! I could not have imagined my wedding day without her. She made everything run so smoothly, and I was able to relax and just enjoy my day. She was also extremely helpful leading up to my wedding day, always available when I had questions, and to plan out the timeline for the day. She is professional, personable, and handled some last minute changes with no problems. I strongly recommend hiring Connie!

Incredible officiant!

Connie was the officiant at our wedding, and from the first day we reached out, she was nothing short of wonderful! Our first phone call with her was thorough, and she took so much time to learn more about us as a couple. From there, she provided us with extremely detailed emails and packages that really helped us navigate the ‘to dos’ before the wedding, customize and personalize our ceremony, and then helped us with the next steps after wedding was over. We’d recommend Connie to anyone!

The best decision you'll make when planning a wedding is hiring Connie

Connie is absolutely amazing!! We just got married, and Connie made sure that everything was organized and went smoothly. She was an absolute Rockstar! Not only did we appreciate everything she did, but our guests were also blown away by her hard work and professionalism.

We hired Connie as our officiant and day of coordinator (although there was nothing "day of" about the attention she gave us...she was in constant communication leading up to our day). In addition to the fantastic work she did on our day, she was also very understanding about the many changes we had to make to accommodate COVID, including a last minute venue change.

We highly recommend Connie for any event you are planning...you will not be disapointed!

CONNIE BUTERA
CONNIE BUTERA
Owner / Event Planner

Hi There! My name is Connie Butera and I am a self-proclaimed event planning geek :) I've been planning both private and corporate events for over 2 years as a professional event planner and project manager. Before becoming a mom and going off on my own, I worked for one of the top agencies in York Region. I have worked with some of the largest labels in the business and have planned events across the world -- large and small -- including numerous weddings, conferences, trade shows, sales, corporate parties, expo's, fundraisers, surprise events and more! I am a graduate of York University.

As of 2019, I am proud to have become an ordained Pastoral Chaplain and am now licensed to marry people in Ontario as a wedding officiant.

I would say that my niche is weddings --especially with budget brides looking to save some cash and DIY. I love coming up with great, cost-effective solutions and adding those personal touches to make your event truly unique.

In addition, I have a vast portfolio in Corporate Event Planning, having worked with some of the largest labels in North America! Have a look at my Facebook page to get a sneak peek.

Events are not just my business... it's my passion! I thoroughly enjoy what I do and working with my customers to pull their events off without a hitch! I like to tell them that I'm sort of like hiring that best friend that you wish you had.... that did everything they could to help you on your special day, but that you don't have to return to the favour to one day :)

In my spare time, I am also a proud mom to four children with exceptionalities, entrepreneur, health & fitness enthusiast and volunteer.

I look forward to the possibility of getting to know you better.

Sincerely,

Connie Butera
