Highly Recommend!!!
My husband and I are very pleased that we chose Pastor Sandi as our officiant. She was the perfect choice for our ceremony, she helped us create a perfect balance between a traditional ceremony with some Pagan elements. Honestly, meeting her for the first time and her understanding our needs and wants, took a huge weight off of my mind. Especially with her knowledge of different elements, such as hand-fastening or an oathing stone. I fully recommend her, as she is a joy to have apart of your special day. -

My husband and I hired Pastor Sandi to officiate our wedding and we could not be happier we did! From start to finish, Sandi was a pleasure to work with—professional, organized, and an all-around lovely person to be around. We are not religious and Sandi provided many non-religious options for us to incorporate meaningful language into our ceremony text, and provided guidance, insight, and samples on how to structure things. At the rehearsal, she provided tons of direction and helped us run through everything 3 times so everyone got it. On the day of our wedding, the ceremony was wonderful. She added so many personal touches about our story, and even added a beautiful, non-religious blessing that our guests raved about. I also really loved her beautiful stole! We were thrilled with everything, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant. -

Pastor Sandi performed the wedding ceremony for my cousin's wedding five years ago, and did an amazing job. When it was time to plan my own wedding, I contacted her first! My husband-to-be and I met with her twice before the wedding, and she was so helpful walking us through the options. When it came to the wedding day, it was such a treat! What she pulled together for us was so personal, and so meaningful for us both. I would recommend Pastor Sandi to anyone looking for a personalized, meaningful, ceremony. -

Pastor Sandi was critical to making our day special, she took the time to get to know us and hear our story, and she seamlessly incorporated that into our ceremony. We always felt so at ease with Pastor Sandi and she was very easy to communicate with. She made sure that the ceremony was exactly what we wanted it to be and was very flexible and accommodating to all of our requests. We would whole-heartedly recommend Pastor Sandi to anyone looking for a friendly, welcoming, and inviting officiant for any type of ceremony! -

Pastor Sandi was the perfect officiant. She was both highly professional and very personable. Pastor Sandi has a gift for taking the nuances of a personal story and weaving them into the ceremonial format. Combining the reverence and solemnity of promises with the lightness and fun of celebration, Pastor Sandi helped us to create an event that was both deeply meaningful and lastingly memorable. -

Pastor Sandi was amazing and would 100% recommend!! She made the entire process super easy from start to finish. We just could not have been happier with how the ceremony came together and absolutely loved the homily Sandi wrote for us. Our guest loved the ceremony too...some asking how long Sandi has known us as she really captured our spirit and others commenting about keeping her in mind for their vow renewals some day in the future. Thank you Sandi for helping create such a wonderful wedding!!! -

Pastor Sandi is incredible! She made our ceremony so special and so beautiful. All of her touches were incredible . . . from the wedding ceremony planning document to her personalization of the service, telling our love story. We were married in a beautiful park setting and she suggested that we stand diagonally so that we could see our guests and our guests could see us! What an great idea! It felt like we were all sharing the moment together, not the usual experience with our backs to our family and guests. Pastor Sandi was so accommodating to all of our desires. We had a 1920's themed wedding which was really fun and she loved it. We had a beautiful sand ceremony with our three children which created a last piece of art in an old liquor bottle.. She had great advice that only comes from someone that has officiated many weddings! She made our ceremony so beautiful and spiritual. Our families just loved the ceremony. I just can't recommend her highly enough! -

Pastor Sandi is wonderful and I would recommend her to any couple!! She is a very caring woman with a glowing spirit. She was genuinely interested in us and in making our little ceremony the most special that it could be. She was prompt in getting our papers back to the county and in other logistics she was courteous, competant, and organized. -

We got married at Faith United Methodist Church in Troutdale OR. We are volunteers at Vista House so we dressed up in 1918 clothes, as we are part of an costume group there. What a great place to be married. We are an older couple and Sandy McFadden gave the special touch that only she could do. Love the options she gave us and then added the personal touch to include the friends and family. So thankful we chose you Sandy.,.Everyone that came to the wedding said it was the most fun wedding they had even been too. I think that says a lot about you and the time you spend getting us ready and planning. May God grand you many people to marry with your gift of organization you complete the package.
Peace to you., -

Sandi was an AMAZING lady to work with! She met with us a few times to ensure our wedding ceremony was perfect and it was! She provided wonderful ideas on what should be included in our ceremony and was very open to our own ideas on what we wanted. Sandi was a joy to work with and I would HIGHLY recommend her! -

We absolutely LOVE working with Pastor Sandi. She has plenty of experience, and between her friendliness and willingness to work with us on so many different aspects of the ceremony, we strongly recommend her. She is a pleasure, and did such a beautiful job of being our officiant. We wanted someone we could connect with, someone who would be a part of our ceremony with us. She's it! I am a pagan, and my now husband's family is Christian, and we were so happy we could incorporate aspects of both religions. She was happy to make it work for us! We chose our wedding ceremony from the packet Pastor Sandi provides if you need ideas. She was also great with our dogs, who we brought to our outdoor wedding. -

My wife and I were so lucky to find Pastor Sandi. We planned our wedding on short notice and, like many others, looked on Wedding Wire for an officiant. For us, that meant someone with a Christian background but who also was progressive in their worldview.
After speaking with a few folks who were great but not the right fit, we connected with Sandi. After a short phone conversation we met for coffee to get to know each other. What first struck me about Sandi was 1) how genuine she is, and 2) how experienced she is. There was an instant feeling of trust that I knew she could deliver the right kind of ceremony we needed. Having spoken with some officiants who seemed experienced but also purely transactional, with Sandi there was a genuine feeling of care about you as a couple and a desire to emotionally frame your wedding the right way.
Sandi led a great conversation with us about who we are as people, how we met, what we like about each other and how we envisioned our ideal ceremony. It was a great exercise for us as a couple in and of itself. We came out of the meeting with positive feelings about how a wedding officiated by Sandi would go. Then came time for the big day...
We had a small wedding, with only 26 guests. Therefore it was important our ceremony felt intimate and was officiated by someone who could connect with our families. And boy, did Sandi ever deliver. Not only did she do a great job delivering the wedding text, but she also provided some "surprise and delight" when she shared select stories from our coffee meeting with our family and friends. For some in our family this was the first time hearing those details of our relationship, and many laughs and happy tears followed. It really was so great and during our reception a huge topic of conversation was how great of a job Pastor Sandi did for us. Since then we have remained in contact with Sandi and I'm happy and thankful she was apart of the best day of our lives. I highly recommend Sandi.-

Pastor Sandi was absolutely wonderful! She was passionate, enthusiastic, non judging, had a good sense of humor and made my fiance and I feel at ease. Most important is she is great with children! Our 3 year old daughter loved her, so did our dog who was also included in the ceremony. Pastor Sandi was incredibly helpful from start to finish. She provided lots of sample ceremony vows and readings and helped turn it into a personal, beautiful wedding. We highly recommend Pastor Sandi! We are so glad we found her.

Pastor Sandi was great! We couldn't have asked for anything better. The ceremony was perfect and fit us so well. She did an amazing job of making it feel personal and we had only talked via email and met once in person prior to the service. Would definitely recommend her! Thanks again Pastor Sandi! -

Pastor Sandi was highly accommodating and quickly provided us material that we could peruse for creating a ceremony that would be special and meaningful for us. Sandy's attention-to-detail helped her to create a beautiful story of how we met and fell in love. The entire process was very personal and we felt a very sincere gratitude toward her for her care and attention to detail. -

Sandi delivered a phenomenal ceremony. She was incredibly thorough, flexible, and thoughtful. She had accommodated all our requests and really took the time to know and understand my partner as a couple before the ceremony. Above all, our guests consistently commented that she was one of the best officiants they have experienced. Sandi (and the cakes) were definitely the highlight of our wedding! -

Sandi is great! She was a gem I'm so lucky to have found! She was professional and thorough and she was generous with her fare. She was incredibly flexible and patient with us on our wedding day and rehearsal (both ran behind schedule). Her energy was warm- really catered a great event. I will never forget her words. Highly recommend! -

Sandi was so helpful and nice from the beginning and through the ceremony. She met with us a couple of times beforehand. She had a variety of options for ceremonies and vows. We wanted to make our vows personal to us, and Sandi used everything we chose plus added in some information from meeting with us about how we met. She exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend Sandi for a beautiful wedding ceremony. -

Sandi is a wonderful officiant and we are so happy that we chose her to marry us! She is extremely pleasant and seems to genuinely care about each couple and their story.
We wrote our entire ceremony ourselves and Sandi was great about making sure that we included all of the legally required information. She also met with us a couple times before our wedding to get to know us as a couple and to include personal anecdotes in the ceremony.
She has a ton of experience so she was so helpful in running our rehearsal and everything went off without a hitch! We received several compliments from guests- - several mentioned that they would love to have Sandi marry them too!
Thank you, Sandi! We will always remember the person that married us and it's so special to us! -
