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

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. :)
