Our friends/family are still raving about our ceremony!

Going with Shari for our ceremony was the best decision we made for our wedding! The ceremony is the most important part of the big day, and Shari lives by that! She is a professional, offering wedding expertise and ceremonial resources, consistently making recommendations and providing guidance -- yet, still allowing the couple to customize to their liking and make final decisions. We significantly downsized our wedding due to COVID and live-streamed the ceremony for our friends and family at home. Our loved ones are STILL raving that it was the best ceremony they have ever witnessed. It was professional, joyful, and had many personal touches. I highly suggest you select Shari for your ceremony!
