Nancy was professional and very effecient

We had decided to get married on a last minute trip to Florida. I called Nancy and she was available. She sent me all the information and she gave me options. She was willing to meet at anytime. It was really hurried on our part and she rolled with it. She was easy and made me and my husband feel special. She was organized. The ceremony was beautiful. Great Job Nancy! Thank you for participating in our beautiful day

Highly recommend Barefoot Weddings

My husband and I were so very happy with the ceremony that Nancy Taussig of Barefoot Weddings officiated in October, 2020. Nancy ensured that our wedding ceremony was magical with special touches that only she can provide. The ceremony language was beautiful and the whole experience was memorable. Thank you Nancy!

We wanted something simple and casual for our open-air Hand-fasting. Nancy T. made it easy from the initial communication right through to the beautiful words she wrote to join us together.
She has our thanks and you have our hearty recommendation to allow her to make your special day awesome.

Mrs. Nancy is absolutely wonderful! She is very quick to respond and does everything to make sure your big day is special. The ceremony itself was beautiful as it was celebrated at sunset. Mrs. Nancy created a special booklet she read to us, printed our vows, and presented us with a lovely ceremony! It was very quick and to the point, just what we wanted. We thought the joining of the sand was perfect and at the end we had our very own keepsake. I would highly recommend Mrs. Nancy as she was delightful and such a sweet lady. Very impressed!!

Nancy was great! She tailored the ceremony to exactly what we wanted it to be. She was professional and guided us through the whole process to ensure everything was completed correctly.
Her words were beautiful and so many guests commented on how lovely the ceremony was.

Nancy was great. We decided that we wanted to do our vows while we were in Florida, from Canada, with our sons close to Christmas. We contacted Nancy on a Tuesday in Dec and hoped for a Thursday, 2 days later, ceremony on the beach. She was up for the challenge. We met her at the location and she had everything printed and ready to go. We had emailed her what was important to us and she made sure that she included those things in the ceremony. The sand ceremony, the witnessing/signing of the documents and the pictures included our teenage sons nicely. Nancy was so personable and professional and just a pleasure to have had perform our ceremony. It was perfect and just what we were hoping for. Thank you Nancy!!

Thank you to Nancy for helping us create the most perfect wedding ceremony for my husband and I! Nancy arrived on the day on time and was both friendly and professional. We loved our sand ceremony and the lovely keepsakes we got to take back to England with us, which are now proudly displayed in our home. Nancy was always incredibly quick with getting back to my emails, and I really appreciated the time and effort she put in to get our inputs on what we both wanted in the ceremony and then making it a reality for us. :)

I would highly recommend Nancy as an officiant for your wedding day! Nancy was great to work with. She communicated well with my husband and I through email and was always prompt with her responses. We just recently married on 11-13-16 at The Sandbar on Anna Maria Island and the ceremony was beautiful. Nancy worked with us to ensure the vows that were read were what we wanted. My husband and I do not really enjoy speaking in front of crowds and Nancy made it so that we just said "I Do". That set our nerves at ease. Thanks so much Nancy for everything it was a pleasure working with you!

Nancy was great, we had a wedding planner and everything fall through the night before the wedding, and desparately used wedding wire to find all local people with literally less than 12 hours prior to the ceremony and we had a brunch hour wedding. Nancy was very accomadating and not only that didn't try to price gouge us like a few of others. We already filed a marriage ceremony at the clerk of court, and many still tried to take advantage of the situation, nancy took care of us very well
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
