    Emily is very warm, caring and intuitive. She very quickly understood us as a couple and created a perfectly customized ceremony in a very short period of time. We were a little nervous as we only had an hour of discussion before the wedding, but we did not need to be. She was wonderful and made the day exactly as we had wanted.

    We can't say enough good things about Emily. We met with her and knew she was a good match. Over that time, she got to know us and was able to make our ceremony so personable. Everyone that was there said she nailed exactly who we were. We could have not have been happier with how things went. Thanks Emily for making our day so special and so us!

    Emily was the perfect fit for our wedding and we immediately felt comfortable with her due to her warm and inviting personality. She has many resources and plenty of experience that helped us to find direction in planning our ceremony. The most important aspect that made working with Emily so wonderful was that she helped us customize our ceremony to fit our unique personalities and style. We had a rather non-traditional wedding and she worked with us to get every detail planned out. We talked/met with her multiple times so that we were able to get to know each other. It was a great experience!

    Emily was one of the best choices we made when planning our wedding. As an officiant, she was the perfect representation of what my husband and I wanted in our marriage and at our wedding among family and friends. I highly recommend her to anyone who is getting married. She made our day and the entire process so special.

    Emily was fantastic! We had a small wedding and wanted it to flow naturally... Emily had multiple formats that we could follow and even helped us come up with our own. She was flexible with our schedule and was always on time.

    I can not recommend her enough.

    I am SO GLAD that my husband and I chose Emily Duncan as our wedding officiant! She is seriously the best officiant ever, we couldn't have found someone more perfect! She walked us through every step of the planning, providing lots of resources and great suggestions that made it easy to plan a wedding ceremony meaningful to us. She was also totally supportive of our geeky theme and ideas!

    Emily is kind, personable, flexible, organized, and SO helpful. At the rehearsal, she made sure everyone knew exactly what to do and when, answered all our questions and put everybody at ease. Her calming presence on the day of the wedding was just wonderful, she really went out of her way to make sure everyone felt comfortable and happy. I really appreciated the time she spent talking to me when I was a little jittery right before the wedding - her reassuring words and gentle humor helped me to relax and enjoy the moment. And the ceremony was absolutely perfect, better than I even imagined - everything went smoothly, and Emily's kind words about me and my husband were so touching.

    In addition, Emily found a person to run the music for our ceremony when our other plans fell through - her awesome husband Gene, who was also just wonderful to work with and made sure the music we wanted sounded lovely and was perfectly timed!

    I couldn't be happier with Emily's services as our officiant. I would recommend her to everyone - family, friends, co-workers, complete strangers, everyone! :D I wish I could give her 10 out of 5 stars!

    Emily Duncan was the most amazing officiant we could have chosen!!! We wanted a non-denominational officiant that was personable and easy going. For those of you that don't know it is quite difficult to find a non-denominational officiant that will perform a non-religious ceremony and so we were worried we wouldn't be able to find anyone! But...the second we started talking to Emily we knew she was the perfect officiant for us!!!!! She was absolutely wonderful, professional, organized, and truly makes you feel like you are the only bride she has at the time! She does whatever is necessary to make you feel totally and completely comfortable with the ceremony and I loved that she gave us examples of each part of the ceremony because we had no idea whatsoever how things were "supposed" to go. With that being said she also helps you to personalize the ceremony in every way you can imagine and our ceremony felt completely unique, personal, and just what we wanted. And Emily Duncan made that possible. If you are looking for the perfect officiant that will cater to your every want and need then Emily is the officiant for you!!! You will not regret choosing her.

    AWESOME!! Emily was fabulous, just fabulous. She has a glowing and warm personality that makes you want to hug her. She is extremely organized and efficient. We met Emily early on in the wedding planning process so we had very few answers about ceremony planning. During our meeting, she gave us a packet that included an outline of the ceremony and lists of picks for each ceremony item. Wow! What a help! We were able to focus on one item at a time and review the choices she had outlined. We were able to completely customize every single ceremony item. We altered some wording on declaration of intent, wrote our own vows, and included our own readings. We felt our ceremony really reflected our personalities and incorporated details that were throughout our wedding. Emily backed all of our choices for the ceremony, directed the rehearsal, and provided a gentle guiding hand during the ceremony. Wow! What a great experience. If we could marry every day, every day I would choose Emily.

    Emily took our entire initial meeting (9 month prior) and worked it into our ceremony. She gave it such a personal touch which made the entire audience laugh and cry at the same time. She is professional, courteous, helpful, and easy to work with. We could not have asked for a better officiant for our wonderful wedding day. HIGHLY recommend her services!!

    Emily was an absolutely amazing officiant. She was laid-back and easy to work with, incredibly professional and always easy to get in touch with. She added so many beautiful personal touches to our ceremony. We had a large project of hanging 1,000 paper cranes in our venue, and Emily even pitched in and folded some for us. It was such a kind and thoughtful gesture. My husband and I cannot recommend her enough!

    Emily was awesome, she made our Wedding relaxed and at ease which is what we wanted. Emily responded to my emails quickly and answered any questions I had. Our meeting before the wedding was relaxed and she made us feel very comfortable. Our rehearsal went great and we loved her ideas. For our actual wedding, again, Emily was calm and so comfortable that she made the day even more enjoyable. I was so happy Emily was apart of our wedding!

    Emily is an excellent officiant. She is very professional, dependable, and responsive. She is also very warm, friendly, and knowledgeable about weddings and relationships. We had a rather unique wedding, and Emily was more than willing to go along with whatever we needed, letting us take the lead in what we wanted for our perfect day while providing her expertise and guidance where we needed it. Emily is a great problem-solver. She's a creative source of inspiration, and her presence as an officiant is subtle, confident, and warm. I would highly recommend her as an officiant.
