Rose was an absolute joy to work with and the perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony. From the very beginning, she was attentive to our needs, incredibly knowledgeable, and always made us feel supported throughout the process.
She has such a warm, welcoming, and friendly presence that immediately put us at ease. As a bride, I felt completely comfortable with her, and her kindness and professionalism helped make the ceremony planning process feel effortless.
Rose is also exceptionally well-spoken and talented in her writing. She crafted and delivered a beautiful ceremony that felt personal, meaningful, and authentic to us. Her words set the perfect tone for the day and created a moment that we will cherish forever.

Elopement Dream Team
We had the honor of having Rose as our officiant for our platinum elopement, and she truly made our ceremony unforgettable. With Grace and warmth, she guided us through our vowels under the big oak tree in the vineyard at Beltane Ranch, crafting a moment that was intimate and deeply personal. Rose shared the story of how we met with such eloquence, making it feel as though we were surrounded by our loved ones. Her her ability to create a sense of closeness in our intimate ceremony was truly remarkable. Rose was an essential part of our elopement dream team, which included our talent, videographer photographer, stylist, wedding planner, and musicians. These incredible individuals were witnesses and loved ones making our day extraordinary with their efforts. We even had our beloved Wally, the ringbearer, adding a touch of whimsy to our special day. For anyone seeking elopement inspiration, Rose's expertise in art felt approach, made her the perfect choice. #PlatinumElopement #ElopementInspiration #ElegantElopement #IntimateCeremony #WallyTheRingbearer #BeltingRanch #BigOakTreeWedding #ElopementDreamTeam

One of our best decisions, when planning for our wedding day, was to find Rose.
From the very first connection, Rose was very open, supportive, and encouraging as we mapped out our plans for our wedding ceremony. The day of our wedding was everything we wanted. Rose was very professional while making personal connections with all of us. We felt like she was a long time friend and supported everything we wanted for our ceremony. She was open to meeting us where we wanted to get married which was right on the beach. We give her our highest recommendation!

A job well done
Rose officiated my wedding in August 2023. She did an amazing job! She made sure the ceremony flowed perfectly. She paid attention to what we wanted for our ceremony and spoke beautifully. She also handled all of the paperwork for our marriage license, so it was nice having one less thing to worry about on our big day. My husband and I definitely recommend her as an excellent officiant.

Rose was so great to work with! She is super flexible and thorough. Every request my husband and I had she was able to accommodate for. We also happened to get married on a super hot day, and Rose was able to change everything on the spot to make sure we got out of the heat quick. We were so grateful for her flexibility and how smoothly everything went on our special day!

Thank you!!
My husband and I met Rose at a wedding fair and immediately knew she was the perfect person to have marry us! Working with her was such a pleasure. We chatted through email and on the phone several times leading up to our big day! Rose provided us with a few of her sample ceremonies to read over and my husband and I made a few minor tweaks to what she had written, and then were able to add our own additional parts that we wanted included.
On our big day Rose arrived ahead of time and met with us making sure everything was set and ready to go! Our ceremony was absolutely beautiful with a huge thanks to Rose! After the ceremony was complete and we had a chance to go over everything with her, Rose immediately went and turned in our marriage license and we were able to quickly pickup the marriage certificate from the county. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience Rose!

Look no further, rose is the best!
Originally we planned for a pastor to minister our wedding. Someone whom we shared a personal connection with and shared our faith in God. Being that my husband and I had settled into a new church a few months before our wedding, we never had the chance to ask the pastor of the church to minister our ceremony. I’ll admit I was a little worried that we headed in a different direction, but Rose did a phenomenal job! My Grandmother even approved of Rose, which was surprising since she is very traditional and disliked the idea of not being married by a Pastor.
Rose catered to our needs and even had an outline of a Christian based ceremony. She also worked with us by allowing us to put a personal twist in our ceremony. I loved opening with a prayer, as it was important to highlight our faith. There was even a mishap on my end and Rose eased the situation like a pro! I forgot to remind my Uncle and Grandfather (who walked me down the aisle) to life up my two tier veil after giving me away. My husband quickly tried to lift it off my face, but Rose so graciously whispered to us, “You can lift it off before you kiss her.” She then looked at me with a calm smile and said, “It will look beautiful with the wind.” I’m so happy that we chose Rose to officiate our wedding and have ZERO regrets! She has the most tranquil voice, and her tone was seamless throughout the entire ceremony! Our families also loved her so much! Please do not hesitate to select Rose as your wedding officiant. She is passionate in her line of work and extremely professional! No matter what your walk of faith may be, she gives her all to accommodate the needs of her couple's.
We love you Rose!
Gabriela & Michael ♥️

THE Best!!!
We found Rose through our wedding venue, The Inn at Occidental. Rose was an absolutely amazing officiant. She was a ray of sunshine on our special day. We are not from the area, so we did not know what to expect. She made us very comfortable by contacting us a number of times prior to our arrival. That in itself made it that much more personal. I'd recommend her for your special day. Cheers to Rose!

Rose is wonderful!
We had Rose meet us in a natural redwood reserve to do our vow renewal. It was just the three of us. The vows were beautiful. She is not an outdoorsy person, but she hiked a bit in for us and was a trooper about it. She took pictures of us so we could remember our redwoods renewal. She has a bright, likable personality.

Rose was an amazing officiant, so bright and cheerful to have with us on our wedding day. She was amazingly flexible and so very kind and understanding, she even offered and came to the rehearsal!

Rose gave us the wedding ceremony of our dreams!
We found Rose through our wedding venue, Auberge du Soleil, in the Napa Valley. She is one of their preferred wedding officiants and was highly recommended to us. After reading through countless rave reviews and testimonials from couples who have been married by Rose, my husband and I knew that we wanted her to officiate our ceremony. When we met Rose in person, we found that she is every bit as warm and wonderful as they say! Rose is a great listener. After talking with her about our relationship, our blended family, and our differences in religion/spirituality, she helped us to pin-point what was most important to us for our petite micro wedding ceremony. She immediately put us at ease and offered thoughtful and creative solutions for handling our marriage license and designing our ceremony. Rose made our wedding day so incredibly special and gave us a ceremony beyond our dreams. Even through a little light rain, her calming presence helped us to stay focused and in the moment during our ceremony. When she speaks, her words carry so much meaning and intention. Being married by Rose felt like we had chosen a close family friend to officiate our ceremony. We are so happy that our gorgeous ceremonial wedding certificate bears her signature. We will always think of her warmly for being such a huge part of our special day and for giving us one of the most precious memories of our lives!

Rose was very easy to work with and helped answer all of our questions to ease our concerns. She communicated well with us in preparation for our wedding and came on time and prepared! She asked the right questions to get to know us and it was great to not have to worry about the officiant. Would recommend Rose to anyone looking to get married!

One of the best!
Rose is a phenomenal officiant. We were looking for someone who could give us flexibility with our ceremony while keeping it laid-back and personal. Our short and sweet ceremony was absolute perfection mainly because Rose was able to quickly pick up on our "vibe" and matched it beautifully. She was also very helpful with our marriage license process, which we were unfamiliar with being an out-of-state wedding. Rose is a wonderful person and I highly, highly recommend her!

Refined Warmth
Let me just begin by saying...thank GOSH we found Rose!!! Her warmth, professionalism, refinement, and poise is what you want on your wedding day. It's money well spent to hire a professional officiant (spoken by someone who began with the intention to have a relative do the job) and I don't mean just ANY professional officiant (spoken by someone who interviewed several and can attest that they all have very different perspectives, Rose's stood out above the rest!). Rose executed our ceremony with precision and grace, she exuded ease and joy, and allowed us to completely melt into the moment without any anxiety or doubt. She guided us astutely through the steps of the ceremony and included every single bit that we wanted included (but in the haze of being bride and groom would never have remembered to say or do ourselves!). I cannot recommend Rose more highly. If you want to be in capable hands and able to relax fully into your dreamy wedding day, choose Rose to be your officiant.

Magical, personalized, flexible, great attitude
Rose helped us craft a customized ceremony based off of her terrific template to make a ceremony that was perfect for us. She travelled further than we initially discussed and was absolutely flexible with us as we ironed out the details of our small elopement during the Coronavirus pandemic. Rose truly made our ceremony and our words to one another feel magical; we felt like we were the only ones there.

Wedding Officiating
Rose officiated our wedding and was phenomenal! She was quick to respond to texts and emails and worked endlessly with us to make sure that we had the wedding ceremony we wanted and needed. She researched aspects of the ceremony that were unfamiliar to her and was very good about ensuring that any last many changes were taken up with myself and the groom directly before implementing. We are so appreciative of the ceremony we had and of the care and diligence Rose took to make our vows special.

Special Circumstances & Special Officiant
Rose was extremely responsive and called me within the first day of emailing. We chatted on the phone and was extremely helpful as my now husband and I were going into this blindly. Due to covid we had to push our wedding to next year. However, we needed to have our marriage documented before school began (as it is an Adventist school and I am not allowed to live with my fiancé). I was not sure how to go about this and she offered to meet up with us, do all the paperwork AND still give us a beautiful small ceremony with family without any hesitation. I can not wait for our actual wedding next year and for her to be officiating! Cheers to Rose!

Go with Rose!
Rose was the perfect officiant! She uses the initial meeting to get to know you as a couple and what you want out of the service. Then she has some really beautiful ceremony scripts and ideas she offers - for instance she incorporated advice from several of our family members, which was particularly nice because so few people could be there (covid). My other vendors all loved working with her as well. She even coordinated with the photographer to make sure we’d be well positioned for the pictures. We would definitely recommend her!

An officiant to suit your needs!
We booked Rose to officiate our Sonoma wedding. While we struggled with the decision to have a family member/wedding guest officiate, we ultimately decided to go with an outside nondenominational officiant with experience. Her pricing was reasonable, and the process was very straightforward. We had an introductory call with Rose, where she shared her normal ceremony scripts, and we had the opportunity to make some tweaks and edits to match us and our needs. She also offered to do a final read through of our personal vows to confirm that they matched in length and tone.
Rose did a great job at our wedding, and even stepped in with her back-up lapel mic when the wind caused the handheld mic's power to cut out. If you're looking for a professional and experienced officiant for your wedding, I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to Rose!

The perfect officiant!
Rose was exactly what my husband and I needed for our wedding day. She was incredibly well-spoken, and all of my guests said the ceremony flowed beautifully and naturally thanks to Rose. She was extremely helpful leading up to the ceremony and truly wants the script to reflect the couple as much as possible, letting us customize and add in phrases where we felt was best. Her style and tone is the perfect mix of casual but still reverent and professional. I would highly recommend to other couples!!!

Rose gave us the ceremony we had dreamed of for years. She knew exactly what we were looking for and worked with us to shape the vows to meet our vision.

Rose is great!
We were so pleased with hiring Rose as our officiant. As soon as we contacted her, she gave us a call so we could learn more about her services and envision what our ceremony would look like. She was extremely responsive to our questions leading up to our big day, was prompt the day-of and kept things light and fun as we requested. Many of our guests complimented her and enjoyed our short and sweet ceremony. Would we hire her again? Absolutely, in a heartbeat!

Wonderful Officiant
Rose was wonderful to work with. She was professional and yet flexible. She provided numerous examples of other ceremonies she had performed and allowed me to further customize my own ceremony. I had numerous compliments from guests that attended our ceremony - one of whom wants to renew her vows with her husband of over 30 years because she enjoyed Rose so much! I have and would recommend her over and over again to anyone in need of an officiant!

Wonderful officiant!
I found Rose online and just like my review, everyone loved her and I see why now. She was so nice to work with and gave us different options for the ceremony and we could customize whatever we wanted. She also came prepared with tissues for me once I got up next to my groom. Once I got up there my groom couldn’t stop telling me how amazing I looked and she joked and told our guests what he was saying, it was so sweet. So glad we found her, thank you Rose!

Rose was wonderful! While we got married in California, we are from New Jersey and took care of all wedding details remotely! Initially that felt like a scary and daunting process but rose was so kind and thoughtful and made it a point to reach out and Skype with us so we could build a relationship! Our ceremony was lovely and she really understood us as a couple and was warm and inviting!

Rose was such a joy to work with, we loved having her officiate our wedding! She was very warm and personable, and we felt she was the right person to marry us. We were impressed by her website, as well as sample vows. Rose was very responsive, had great communication, and was easy to work with. I would highly recommend Rose to any bride or groom. Thank you, Rose!!!

Our Wedding❤️
When it comes to your wedding, there are several things that are important- DJ, Flowers, Food, Liquor... but the one who really takes the pressure off is the officiant. Rose did a phenomenal job officiating our wedding. From the moment we picked her she was available to talk, FaceTime, and answer all my stupid little questions that I was freaking out about. She sent me the whole ceremony and then resent it once I’d told her all my little quirks so when it came to “game day”, there were no surprises up at the alter. I knew every word and what to expect with every beat (which was a huge deal for me as I have a spot of stage fright!) Rose was amazing, comforting and supportive the whole way. She kept it light and fun (as we asked) and we couldn’t have chosen better than her!

Rose is professional and friendly. Though we were hundreds of miles apart, she worked with our schedule by video chatting, emailing and texting when necessary. She gave me pointers when I needed it. Day of the wedding, I was running a bit behind schedule. She was patient and helpful. Great to work with!

Rose, thank you so much for making our wedding day special! You kept us calm throughout the whole ceremony. From the very start your attention to detail was superb, from jumping on skype as we were organising the wedding from Singapore, to meeting us face to face in Sonoma 6 months before our big day. We loved your calmness, jovial spirit and when the little things went wrong you kept the crowd entertained. We would highly recommend you to anyone getting married. Thanks Kevin & Deirdre

Rose officiated the ceremony for our wedding on August 19, 2018. She was incredible!! We felt immediately comfortable with Rose the first time we spoke and she has such a warm, comforting nature about her! Rose was incredibly organized and professional. She helped us formulate our ideas and created a beautiful ceremony, as if she had known us for 20 years! Rose is well-spoken, kind and I would highly recommend her to officiate any wedding! Thank you for such a memorable occasion!

Rose is kind, positive and really tried to get to know us in order to deliver a perfect ceremony. She gave us suggestions to help us think about what we might want for the day, and asked a lot of questions. Her style made our wedding ceremony very personal and meaningful, but also a very warm and truly joyful occasion.

Rose was wonderful! She kept the ceremony lighthearted and made both of us feel at ease by using stories we wrote to each other as well as some light humor that fits both of our personalities. The ceremony was exactly what we wanted. Rose also worked with our witnesses after the ceremony to complete all necessary paperwork and took care of sending the paperwork into the County for filing. Thank you so much Rose for making our ceremony special and personalized to who we are!

Such an amazing lady. The moment I spoke with her over the phone I was confident she would be the perfect officiant to perform the wedding. We were traveling from Florida so I wasn't able to meet her in person. When she arrived I felt like I knew her for quite a while. She really listens and will surprise you by adding personal footnotes that you might have forgotten you told her. She was warm and caring and really responded to being part of the ceremony. She even had a glass of champagne with us and stayed for a bit because she was so moved. She also is very detailed. You don't have to worry about anything with her. She's easy to contact and follows up with you long after the ceremony.
I highly recommend her.

Rose was amazing! I really wasn't sure what to look for in an officiant. My husband and I are not the very religious type, so we just wanted something short and sweet. I know no one enjoys listening to a ceremony where the officiant goes on and on. Rose was exactly what we wanted before we even knew what we wanted. All of our guests thought we had the most sweet and romantic vows, and it was all thanks to Rose! She made the process so easy and it turned out to be even more special than I had imagined.

Rose officiated our wedding May 20, 2017 at a winery in Sonoma and we couldn't be happier with the memories we made with her. We highly recommend Rose to anyone looking for a warm and special person to officiate your wedding. We had received referrals for and met with prospective candidates and no one could match our meeting with Rose. We knew she was "the one" from our first meeting with her. Our experience with Rose was that she is organized, professional, sweet and knows how to walk you through your special day. She is simply amazing!

I think the best thing I can say about Rose is that multiple guests asked us "Who is your officiant?!" because she is that good.
The ceremony was exactly what we wanted - laid back, sweet, and short (It was 100 degrees!). Rose's words fit perfectly with the vows we had written each other. Even though we had only met once, our guests really thought she must be an old family friend!
Rose made the whole process super simple and stress-free. She provided two different ceremony structures and were able to customize as needed. While we kept it pretty simple, she had lots of fun ideas I'm sure other couples would be super into. She is just beyond sweet and easy to work with. Our guests also told us that they appreciated how easy she was to hear and listen to - this is a lady who knows what she is doing!

We typically don't write reviews but I think Rose deserves a good one because she made our special day even more special :)
We had 2 weddings -one in Sonoma and one in Istanbul- and during our prep we had to deal with multiple illnesses/death in the family, so our wedding prep was very chaotic. However, Rosa nailed everything with perfectionism although we were lost in process. Now I understand better why it's important to work with a professional who does her job with passion and is smooth and creative in public speaking.
She was very accessible overall and she had a long interview with us in which she helped us understand the whole process. As the big day approached, we had an opportunity to go over everything with her which was a relief for us given the hectic days (we had our wedding in Istanbul 2 weeks before the one in Sonoma). We were even too busy to come up with an answer to "why do I love him/her?" until a few hours before the ceremony. !Shame on us! She proved that she is well-skilled as she was able to integrate them into her speech in the last minute.
In addition, she provided us with a non-religious/secular service because me and my husband have different religious affiliations. So, I should say she was great at meeting our needs in this manner as well.
Shortly, her gesture, tone, volume, professionalism, speech, outfit, paperwork, fee... anything and everything you can think of about an officiant was perfect!
We are so happy that we worked with her and we strongly recommend her.

We were set on Rose from the first moment we saw her profile on Wedding Wire and so glad she officiated our wedding.
Rose was quick to respond to all questions, however silly they may be (and yes there were quite a few silly ones from me!) and kept us calm before the big day. Having booked a destination wedding from the UK we did not meet Rose in person before the day however we did have a lovely Skype meeting a few days beforehand which made us feel even more at ease.
The ceremony on the day was perfect, the vows personalised to what we loved about each other. She even put up with our best man forgetting the rings and having to run out midway through! A complete professional and we would recommend to anyone looking for the perfect officiant.
Thank you again Rose for making our day as amazing as it could be. x

Rose was fantastic! My (now thanks to Rose) wife and I aren't overly sentimental and were looking for someone easy-going and personable and couldn't have chosen any better. The ceremony turned out perfect, and Rose did such a wonderful job conducting the service as well as guiding us along that it seemed even that much more effortless. Consequentially, I ended up referring Rose to a few other wedding guests!

Rose Barboza was excellent! From our first conversation to the wedding itself, she could not have been more helpful and responsive. She provided a very customized and special wedding ceremony for just the two of us. She had the great idea of including our children through their words of advice though they weren't at the ceremony. Rose is so incredibly nice, thoughtful, warm and caring and was just perfect for this very important milestone for us.

Rose officiated our ceremony earlier this month and I cannot express enough how wonderful she is! Rose is extremely professional and was quick to respond to any questions we had. She has a calming nature about her and even took time to chat with our daughter who was having some pre-ceremony jitters about her role as flower girl. We receiving so many compliments on her the ceremony she performed, most said it was the best ceremony they had every heard. Still bummed we didn't get a picture with her! Thank you Rose!

Rose was absolutely a breath of fresh air in all the crazy! She is calm and sweet in her demeanor, and loves to get to know you as both an individual, and as a couple. She is someone that makes you feel comfortable and like you have known her for a very long time, even if its only been through email and one or two meet ups. She keeps things personal duing the ceremony, and makes sure you know what is going to be said and how you can personalize it to your liking. She always has a smile on her face and was definitely able to calm the nerves on the day of the wedding! Thank you so much for making our wedding special, we really think you are an amazing person and think everyone should choose you to officiate their weddings! <3 K&K 8/19/16

Rose made our special day very special indeed! I must first comment on her flexibility as we planned our wedding very last minute and very unconventionally. She was able to accommodate our last minute request and did so with a lot of enthusiasm. It is obvious she loves what she does and puts in 110% effort. She guided us along the way as we had no clue what we were doing. She was patient and funny and really made our vows special. Even our guests commented on how she did such a great job of combining sentiment with humor that really told the story of who we are while doing our vows. I would definitely recommend her!

My experience with rose was more than I could have imagined or even asked for. I was extremely nervous the day of my wedding and rose talked me through it and was really there by my side reassuring me that everything will be okay. She made the ceremony so smooth and I didn't give any thought as to what I should say, where I should be standing, or anything else as she did all the work for my husband and I to ensure that we had a magical ceremony. Rose knows how to get the job done and I would encourage anyone getting married to utilize her service.

From our initial phone call with Rose, we knew that she was the right choice of officiant for us. She immediately connected with both of us personally and the sample ceremony she sent us was so much of what we wanted our ceremony to be that all we did was swap the order of some sections and tweak a few words with her.
She was able to give us a ceremony that was deep and moving without being religious and that captured a profound sense of romance without being saccharine. And she delivered it smoothly and with conviction.
Perhaps most importantly, she's a very warm and natural person. Going into the ceremony, we knew that one of us was going to get tongue-tied or would say something out of order but she'd be there to smile and gracefully get everything back on track. We were so happy to have her as part of our wedding day.

Rose Barboza was an awesome officiant. When Mick and I first met her, we felt an instant connection. She is easy to work with and very professional. We wanted to keep our vows simple and sweet and she did exactly that. We recommend Rose highly, tot won't be disappointed.

Rose was absolutely fantastic. She was great in every facet. From beginning to end we loved speaking with her. When we forgot our Argument Box the day of the wedding, she was able to wing it and go on from there. She did not skip a beat and I would love to have her again years from now. Her personal touch and overall persona about weddings and everything is great. I would totally recommend Rose to anybody who is getting married!

Rose was an amazing part of our wedding! Because this was a destination wedding for us, Rose did a great job of getting to know us and our style beforehand over the phone and skype. She personalized our wedding perfectly, as if she had known us for years!
We loved the words and the ceremony elements that she suggested for us, and because she could tell I would likely be a little too emotional to speak in front of our guests, she even suggested that we individually send her our top 5 things we love about each other and she read them for us. That's just a simple example of ways she personalized our special day perfectly.
I would recommend Rose to any family member or friend.

Rose was an excellent officiant. The preparations before the wedding were short and easy, but also thorough. She brought a positive energy to the ceremony and her delivery was well-rehearsed. She was also knowledgeable about marriage certificate procedures in SF county.

We found Rose through an internet search for an officiant in the wine country. Rose was extremely flexible, understanding, kind and truly interested in making sure we were happy. She was very easy to work with and made the wedding process unstressful, smooth and fun.

My husband and I eloped in February. We wanted to have an intimate ceremony.. Rose was recommended by one of the venues we were considering. From our first exchange, I knew we found the right Officiant. She was knowledgeable about the area and some potential sites and was flexible to personalize the ceremony. She had us each send her thoughts about the other which she wove into the ceremony. It was absolutely perfect! I've described it to friends as magical.
Thank you Rose!!

Rose was everything we could have asked for and more. She was prompt in answering any questions or concerns we had about our vows and the vision we had for our wedding. The day of our wedding she was there to assure us and made us comfortable during the ceremony. We laughed, cried and enjoyed the ceremony that she performed for us. After the day was over and my Mom was getting things organized into a memory book we contacted Rose to get a copy of the ceremony she performed. There was no problem and a quick response. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rose. She was one of the shining moments on that day and I would highly recommend Rose as an officiant

Rose was great!!! She was the first Officiant we met with and after our meeting Rus and I were completely convinced we found what we were looking for, She was very professional, helpful, so warm and easy to talk to. We gave her some ideas on what we wanted and she worked it all out. With her suggestions and ideas things just fell into place, I had some personal thoughts and feelings I wanted expressed at our wedding that I shared with Rose, we discussed it and Rose put it all into words that were just perfect! Our family and friends by were so touched by our ceremony. It was everything we wanted for our special day. Thank you Rose!!!

Rose was amazing! I planned my wedding from out of state and she made the whole process so easy for us. She made herself available for numerous phone calls and Skype sessions and made us feel at ease when we talked to her, which is why we ended up choosing her to officiate our wedding. I am so glad that we did. Rose was always extremely professional and experienced, so we had a lot of confidence in her. She was also very open and encouraging when we mentioned that we wanted to make our ceremony a little bit more personal to us as a couple. She has a great personality that really shone through when she performed the ceremony. We are so happy with our decision to hire Rose. We would definitely recommend her!

Rose was one of our favourite vendors. She was always professional, fun and gave us some great suggestions throughout the planning for the day. She readily provided suggestions and the amount of good feedback we had for the ceremony was amazing. She also provided a number of other great recommendations for vendors (in particular our harpist was amazing).

Brandon and I were looking for a secular wedding ceremony that was professional, fun, and romantic all at once. We found that with Rose. She was absolutely fantastic, responsive (usually replying to e-mails or calls within 24 hours), and fun to work with. She composed a ceremony that made us happy, and covered everything with us within the last month before the wedding. I'd recommend her to any of my friends and family in the area who have weddings coming up.

Thank you Rose for marrying us last week! We thought you were enthusiastic in performing our ceremony and made the process enjoyable for us. I especially liked how you asked us to specify what we love about one another, which really personalized the ceremony and reminded us both of what brings us together. I wish we could've spent more time with you, as it all went by too fast! In addition, I will send you some shots that Richard took as soon as I get them. Thanks again, Kelly & Scott

Rose was amazing!! We are located in Massachusetts, Rose took time to Skype with us to review the details. She was so easy to work with, and I felt like she really cared about our wedding and making sure it was special for us. I would hire her again in a second!
