    Taya made our important day extremely special and fun

    Taya was extremely professional and not only helped us with officiating the wedding, but also helped us find a venue and a photographer. She always responded in a timely manner and answered many of our questions about the process.

    Taya was flexible, even accommodated our 3 year old let dog in the ceremony.

    Overall, Taya made our important day extremely special and made it less stressful for us so we could enjoy it more.

    Rolled with the Mishaps!

    I loved working with Taya, she was great and very helpful! She gave us plenty of options of different ceremony types so we found one that fit us best!

    The microphone turned off during the ceremony and she just knew what to do - spoke louder to get everyone's attention and when I misspoke the word "wring" instead of making me feel embarrassed she also said "wring" so it was like it was supposed to have happened that way and not a misspoke at all.
    I do not want to get married again anytime soon but if I had to go with an officiant I would pick Taya every time!

    Hey, you guys made it super easy to "roll with the punches" - it was absolutely a great match & I am honored you chose me for your special day. Can't wait to see your pro pix!

    Excellent Service

    Taya was incredibly pleasant and professional throughout the entire process. She made everything go great and happily dealt with the 90 degree days we experienced on our wedding day. She was super accommodating and created a great atmosphere. 10/10

    If you are reading this review - Hire Taya now.

    As a wedding planner everyone thought my day would be planner and would look like the weddings I plan. My now husband and I decided we wanted to do it our way so we got married with only the two of us, Taya, and two random witness on the beach. Taya responded to my inquiry in MINUTES and made sure everything was smooth and easy from the moment we talked to her. She was FLEXIBLE ( does not even describe ) I reached out to her on a Tuesday asking her if she could pull a miracle and marry us that Saturday. She pivoted her personal plans and made sure she was able to do this for us. I don't think she even understands how much that meant to me and my now husband. Now skip to the ceremony... I can't begin to tell everyone reading this how perfect it was. The woads she chose seem to speak to someone who knew us for awhile .. not someone who met us for the first time ten minutes before we got married.
    it was perfect. She was so helpful, kind, willing to help and you can tell she LOVES what she does. It is very simple - if you all need someone to marry you - here she is! We plan on reaching back out to her in the future when we do the ceremony in front of friends and family when we are ready to be married to the "public" Haven't even asked her yet but I am excited to.. and hopeful I will see her in the future. Cant say enough..
    Thank you Taya - my wedding day was perfect because of you ( and of course my groom - I like him a lot too! Cant forget him haha )

    Taya fit our wedding vibe perfectly!

    Taya did an amazing job with the ceremony. We contacted her a few months ahead of our wedding, completed a questionnaire she sent over and spoke to her on the phone in the week leading up to the wedding. She helped to design a perfect ceremony for us and gave us tips on how to write our personal vows. Honestly the vows were my favorite part of the whole night. One of the important things for us was finding an officiant that fit the vibe of the wedding. She sent us plenty of ceremony samples. Funny, modern, traditional, religious. It was important for us, my wife and I, to be the focus. And that we were. She even stepped to the side at the time for the kiss so that she wasn’t in the background of our first kiss picture. I think this is becoming more common these days and it worked out well. I would highly recommend Taya to others looking for an easy experience from designing to execution.

    Exceptional Service!!!

    Taya was very professional and added a personal touch to our ceremony. She put us at ease immediately, and although we just met her, it felt like she was supposed to be there. Our family and friends in attendance also remarked on how impressed they were with her. You will not be disappointed if you choose to make her a part of your special day!

    Excellent personalize ceremony

    Rev. Taya was a joy to work with! My wife and I were very happy with all of the ceremony customization options and enjoyed creating our own unique ceremony. She also met with us the day before for a quick rehearsal, which we really appreciated. It was a wonderful service and we would definitely recommend Rev. Taya for your future wedding!

    Dream come true!!!!

    We had a very simple yet personal wedding with Taya. She was just wonderful and made our experience so comfortable. Taya has a vast knowledge of the wedding process and was so unbelievably helpful ensuring all our needs were met. She was courteous, kind and professional but just a really good human being. We have a friend for life!!!!

    Taya took care of everything and do the ceremony just like we wanted. She was very flexible on where we wanted to have the ceremony and came to us. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to get married at the beach!!!

    Personable, Friendly, Fun & Flexible Officiant!

    Working with Reverend Taya was smooth from the start. She gave us the option to customize our ceremony wording by providing many ceremony examples, encouraged us to write our own personal vows, and answered any questions we had. Taya was very flexible and fun, and she's smiling ear-to-ear in every wedding photo she's in! :) Thank you Taya.

    Amazing!!!!!!

    When most people think about a wedding, they think about big white dresses and open bars and bad dancing. We generally focus on the party aspect of the wedding but the whole point of the wedding is the promise that two people are making to each other. Our ceremony was hands down the best thing about our wedding and a big part of that was because of Taya. She wrote a ceremony for us that was touching and personal but at the same time fun. We honestly could not have found someone better to guide us into making this official.

    Altared Vows by Taya's reply:

    Well Patricia, like I said when I read your questionnaire, I KNEW I just had to write something extra special for you guys. &... more than you probably know... you made MY day extra special. You are exactly the reason why I love my job so much! Thank you thank you thank you! ~ Rev. Taya

    Wonderful!!!!!!

    Taya is a sweet and caring woman! She was so awesome and met all of our needs. She drove over 2 hours always to marry us in Ocean City, MD on the beach. She was very incredibly nice, it was like I’ve know her already. The prices are also very affordable and she even takes photos for a small fee if you ask. Book with Taya, you won’t regret it!

    Altared Vows by Taya's reply:

    Thank you so much Amy! It was an absolute pleasure meeting you all & I was honored to snap a few photos for you as well.

    Very Professional

    We contacted Rev. Taya a few days before our wedding and she quickly responded to our request. This was during Covid and we had already postponed multiple times, so we decided to just do a home wedding at the last minute. Rev Taya was very flexible and professional. We would highly recommend her for anyones wedding.

    I contacted Rev. Taya a few days before our wedding and she was quick to respond. I wasn’t sure if she would be available since It was just a few days notice. Rev. Taya was very professional. We were very happy with the service she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone.

    Efficient, professional, and great upbeat attitude.

    Taya was a wonderful officiant. She was very responsive. She worked with us to make changes to our ceremony to include a rose ceremony. I also really recommend her for your rehearsal. She got everyone in order, and gave great instructions and tips. It would have been so much harder for us to figure it out ourselves. I loved her upbeat attitude and energy.

    Taya was fantastic! We had such a good experience and highly recommend her for your wedding ceremony! She was so easy to work with and made the process smooth and easy prior to our wedding. We received several compliments from our guests about what a great job she did during our ceremony and how much they enjoyed her wedding ceremony speech. Thank you again Taya!!!

    Remarkable, Professional and Well Experience

    Taya was absolutely fantastic. She was prompted, straight forward and very professional. Couldn't have ask for a better officiant. If you're getting married soon, please request for Taya services.
