Endorsements
"I have been in contact with Sandy through our mutual membership in the My Heart is Yours Ministry. Through our conversations, I've always found her to be thoughtful, knowledgeable and open-minded and I'm happy to endorse her and her services!"
"We love working with Sandy! Wonderful, customized ceremonies with warmth and personality. If you are planning a ceremony outside your usual place of worship, talk to Sandy ~ she's just terrific!"
"Sandy Bearden is a very personable, multi-talented, patient and professional person, who I had the pleasure of meeting and working closely with in March 2008 at a Women’s Entrepreneurial Expo. Sandy provided with me a wealth of information pertaining to the various ceremonies that she conducts and detailed steps as to how to customize your wedding vows (which is very beneficial to my clients). To put the icing on the cake, Sandy conducted an actual ceremony at the Expo, which was truly a huge treat for fellow exhibitors and visitors. I look forward to working with Sandy in future and I would recommend Weddings by Sandy to any of my clients who require her services for their special soirée! "

"I partially planned and coordinated a wedding for a bride and groom who lost their officiant a couple months prior to the wedding. They chose Weddings by Sandy to perform their ceremony and Sandy stepped in and provided the ideal wedding ceremony for them. They were very happy with her service and so was I! Sandy has a great personality and works with the bride and groom to give them their very own personalized ceremony. I recommend her for any bride and groom who are looking for an officiant to perform their ceremony."

Sandy was very professional and friendly at the same time... even two hours before the wedding, she was willing to work on a food blessing... She is just understanding, flexible and great at her job. My highest recommendations..

She was very personable, yet professional. She handled our interfaith wedding well (even with our parents as tense as they were). I received non-stop compliments on her performance of our ceremony. She made me feel very at ease during my big moment and the ceremony was absolutely PERFECT!

Sandy was great! She had a wealth of resources for me and my (now) husband to look through, but she was always receptive to incorporating our original ideas. She was understanding, even when we changed our venue to someplace three hours away! She was always a professional, supportive, pragmatic force in an otherwise chaotic process. I highly recommend her services. We were both very happy to have Sandy as our officiant.

Sandy was great to work with. From the first time we met her, writing our vows, the rehearsal, and then performing our ceremony; she was great! SHe knew how to lighten the moment when things didn't go smoothly (trying to put the rings in the bridal set together.) I would recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant.

My husband had only one problem with the services. He felt hurried along. Turned out that the officiant didn't leave enough time between our wedding and the one after ours. She sent a couple people to come find me and see if I was on my way yet. I myself felt hurried, but that was because the wedding was at 1pm and I was trying to be on time without someone keeping track of the time. I later found out after the ceremony what all had happened. Other than that small issue, the services were excellent. She made the ceremony about me, my husband, and our family. It was beautiful and very personable. The verses were absolutely perfect! I would definately recommend Sandy to other people. I just hope that if she plans more than one wedding on the same day, that she at least warns them the day before so they better plan there day.

There are definite pluses here. The ceremony booklet is great. You can choose and customize your own ceremony. Our wedding was wonderful and the ceremony we chose was great. I had a fairytale wedding and Sandy did help make that happen. She is very organized and has great ideas for all types of weddings. She was friendly and accommodating for the most part.
