Rev. Martha was wonderful. This may sound funny but my husband and I found her name on a placemat in a dinner. We were talking about getting married a few days later we found her name. We figured it was worth a call. From the moment I spoke the her I knew she was the minister I wanted. Since this is a second marriage for both of us and we both have children from a previous marriages it was important to include them. Rev. Martha listened to everything I wanted and made our day perfect. If you want your day to be special you won't go wrong with choosing Rev Martha.

Martha provided us with a beautifully written ceremony for our elopement. She was very professional and worked with us having to change our date and location due to Covid. I highly recommend her for your ceremony!
