Great Choice!

I chose Sandra because a year before my wedding she did my husbands best friends wedding and I remember sitting there during their wedding thinking what a great ceremony it was and how much I liked Sandra and her style. She works with you to create this amazing story of how the two of you met and how the proposal happened. She also is very reasonable priced compared to others.

Sandra was wonderful to work with. Quick to respond, gave helpful suggestions, and helped us to make everything personal and fit our style. She helped us to incorporate both of our styles, write vows, and incorporate elements we wanted to add to make it different yet traditional. The ceremony was romantic and personal - helping us to feel connected to each other and our guests. Things ran smoothly despite our anxieties and she helped to ease our worries. We highly recommend Sandra for everyone!

Thank you!

I would highly recommend Sandra Monahan. She was everything we could have ever hoped for and more. We met with a lot of different officiants and when we found Sandra, we were so relieved. She was so responsive and more than helpful from start to finish. She has a genuine passion for what she does. She made our ceremony and our vows exactly the way we wanted. She really listened to things we said were important and made sure to incorporate them. She was happy to keep the traditional Christian elements that we wanted but, she also customized our ceremony to reflect both my husband and I. We received so many positive comments from our family and friends on how beautiful our ceremony was and what a great officiant Sandra was. She made our wedding day so very special and memorable. We sincerely can't say enough great things about her.
