Reverend Rita was wonderful to work with. She is very good at what she does. She followed up with us often to be sure we didn't forget some important tasks. She made our wedding even more special with her unique touches at the ceremony.

Rita was amazing - she helped us create a ceremony that was perfectly US! We started this whole thing not knowing at all what we wanted, and three days after our wedding, I still haven't stopped getting compliments on how perfect our ceremony was! Rita even came to our house twice to work with us on choosing the perfect readings, traditions, vows, and helped us incorporated different elements like a hand blessing and ring warming, to ensure that we were happy with our ceremony. We were looking for an officiant, and ended up with a friend! We highly recommend Rita!

Reverend Rita was wonderful! She met with us prior to our wedding to get to know us and answer our questions. She provided each of us with a questionnaire to give information about each other which we both completed separately. From that, Rev Rita prepared a very customized/personalized ceremony for us. We took our vows on the boardwalk gazebo at Spring Lake on a very windy afternoon....Rev Rita was a trooper and did not cut the service but delivered the service with a smile. All of our guests commented on how nice the ceremony was and the fact that it was so personalized for us. We truly appreciate what Rev Rita provided for us to make our day more memorable!

Rita was amazing! My guests were so impressed with her, as were we. She really got across what we were looking for in the content of the ceremony. We wanted to get through a specific message about our relationship, all that we had gone through, a bond that most will never share. She did it!! All my guests commented on the wedding being so different, especially the ceremony itself. Thanks Rita!

It was such a pleasure to meet and have Reverend Rita be apart of our wedding. I got so many compliments on how beautiful the ceremony was. She took the time to get to know us before the wedding which meant a lot to us and it made the ceremony that much nicer. Rita is so passionate and such a lovely person. The ceremony is the most important part of a wedding and she combined love, laughter, friends and family, just perfectly.

Reverend Rita Atlas was an absolutely wonderful officiant, and we couldn't have asked for anyone better for our wedding day. She took the time to really get to know myself and my husband and incorporated stories and anecdotes we shared with her into the ceremony to make it truly personal and special. She got back to me within 24 hours of me calling or e-mailing, was always willing to get together closer to our home for our convenience and was incredibly reasonably priced for the amount of work she puts into each and every event she does.

Reverend Rita did an excellent job as our officiant. She was completely professional and tailored our ceremony to our exact requests. We would highly recommend her.

Thanks again for a wonderful ceremony.

We wanted an informal and personal service in our own home, which we received beautifully from Rev Rita. In the pre-wedding meeting Rita suggested a range of ceremonies, and we chose to include a sand ceremony. This was a great hit with the guests and we were so pleased it had been suggested.
Overall is was a lovely experience, Rita was very professional and accommodating, the ceremony fit perfectly with our requests and our families were very moved with the service.

Reverend Rita has made our Wedding Ceremony one that will be remembered by all for many many years. She had made it her mission to really get to know my husband and I prior to the wedding. Reverend Rita made mention to all the beautiful aspects our our lives together, the funny moments we shared, the reaons why we fell in love and the journey of our lives together. Our wedding guest's still mention to us that our ceremony was so unique and beautiful. Reverened Rita performed the family circle seremony with my two children, it was priceless! I had felt a connection with Reverend Rita the moment she came to our home to meet with us. She is truly AMAZING and I have called her my Angel!

The Reverend was wonderful!! She took the time to get to know each of us in preparation for her ceremony remarks. She was very flexible and in all regards a wonderful person who takes her job very seriously.

We highly recommend Reverend Rita!

Working with Rita for our wedding ceremony was a wonderful experience and we could not have asked for more. Our wedding was a small event, non-religious and organized in a relatively short period of time. Rita made us feel that we were at the center of the world, with a very personalized ceremony.

Rita was extremely responsive and proactive in talking and meeting with us about what we wanted for our ceremony. She helped with suggestions (sand or unity candle ideas), vows, etc. Her questionnaires and our chats resulted in a very personalized ceremony that was just beautiful. She brought together so many things and added all the right touches that we felt as if she knew us for our entire lives.

We could not have asked for, nor imagined, a more heartfelt and warm ceremony. It was a pleasure working with Rita and we felt very lucky and honored to have her marry us. We highly recommend Rita without reservation.

Rev Rita was absolutely wonderful. She worked with both families and both faiths and provided us with a service that everyone enjoyed. I have been approached by many of our guests who went out of their way to let us know how wonderful and special they thought the service was.

she was great. it was a perfect mix of what we wanted. she mixed the two religions with out making the ceremony religious and realy made the ceremony about us and our relationship and feeling for each other. i would recommend her to anyone.

Rev. Rita was absolutely wonderful. With all of the stress and anxiety included in planning our special day, meeting with Rita was therapeutic. She is a genuine, compassionate, and professional. She made us feel very special, offering her advice for not only our ceremony, but also for life�s journeys in general.

My husband and I both come from Catholic backgrounds, yet neither of us is "religious" per say - more spiritual. Rev. Rita provided us with an outlet to showcase and share our personal beliefs, without being tied down to the more traditional, religion-based wedding ceremony.

She met with us on several occasions prior to our wedding day: First to meet us in our home, where she interviewed us, took notes, and explained her style and services. She discussed the type of feel we wanted for our ceremony, and provided us with numerous ideas. One great idea was to perform a "unity sand ceremony" as oppose to the more-often used "unity candle ceremony� (we were married on the beach). She gave us a list of questions that my husband and I completed on our own--separately. We then emailed her the answers. She used these answers to create our ceremony. With her help, we also wrote our own vows. She again met with us the night of our wedding rehearsal. She was one of the first vendors to arrive on our wedding day, and was absolutely cool, calm and collected.

Our ceremony was nothing short of amazing. The service she put together was heartwarming and emotional, yet she still allowed for a few comedic breaks (thank goodness!). During our cocktail hour immediately following our exchanging of vows, guests continually referenced the amazing job she did, saying it was the best wedding ceremony they have ever experienced. We still have relatives and friends that reminisce over the service.

Rev. Rita was truly a pleasure to work with. Her services and spirit are unforgettable. It is with 100% confidence that my husband, family, and I highly recommend her to any couple planning their own special day.

Best Wishes,
Amy & Chris, Married July 5, 2008

Rita was wonderful! She was warm and eloquent, and handled our semi-Quaker service with professional aplomb. She helped make our day perfect!

Rev Rita spent time with us to get to know the essence of our relationship. She then tailored a unique and moving ceremony just for us. She injected humor, warmth, insight and wisdom into our memorable service which to this day draws favorable comments from our family and friends. We consider ourselves blessed to have come to know Rev. Rita.
