Spiritual not religious ceremony - highly recommend!!

Marsha did our spiritual not religious ceremony. It was spectacular. She allowed us to select our own spiritual quotes. There is a lot of flexibility. Her ceremony flowed smoothly and we felt very comfortable with her. She did a great job. Highly recommend!

Amazing Officiant!

We were so lucky to get to work with Marsha! From our first phone call to the day of our wedding, we felt that Marsha understood who we are as a couple. She listened attentively and worked thoughtfully to help us create a wedding ceremony that honored our relationship and our individuality. She made our day so special!

Elopement in our backyard

My husband and I decided to elope within the week with little thought to any wedding preparations. To say that we were blessed to find that Marsha was available to officiate our wedding is an understatement. She was a joy to work with before, during and after the ceremony. She brought a lot of calmness to an otherwise nerve-racking day. She understood and anticipated what we did not know we needed. What would have been a semi-regular event became a unique, thoughtful, fun ceremony full of love and joy. We will cherish it always.

The perfect wedding ceremony

My husband and I just got married on Saturday, and Marsha was the PERFECT officiant for our ceremony for numerous reasons. Well before the big day, we had a call with Marsha and she intently listened to our love story down to every detail. She was kind, invested, and extremely knowledgeable, guiding us every step of the way on what the ceremony would look like. She even offered up her services if we needed any coaching with our vows! On the day of the ceremony, we felt very comfortable knowing that we were in good hands. She is spiritual and has a great sense of humor. She also has an extremely calming presence, which is SO important for a couple about to profess they love to one another in front of a massive audience! Marsha is amazing at what she does, and she does it with grace, confidence, and love. I would recommend her to everyone! Thank you Marsha for making our big day so incredibly special! 🙏🏻

Amazing. Wouldn't have changed a thing

Marsha was amazing! You couldn't ask for a more sincere, more honest, passionate about what she does person to officiate your wedding. We are from Ohio and we wanted to have a beach ceremony. We decided on Point Dume and had multiple phone conversations with her. Marsha talked to us and gave us options about how the ceremony could go and made us very very comfortable. She gave us options and recommended a sand ceremony which we loved. She also recommended that we write our own vows and we are glad we did. We both felt like she took the time to get to know us. Highly recommend Marsha

Marsha was fantastic!

Our guests couldn't stop talking about Marsha! We booked her because our planners had heard of her. She called us a couple times to organize the ceremony elements, but we had never actually met until the wedding. SHE was amazing! We wrote our story on how we met but the way she told it--wow! She really brought it to life. Thank you for everything Marsha! We really loved having you there.

Marsha - We are so thankful you were our officiant!

When you meet Marsha, you immediately feel like she sees and understands you with no judgement or scrutiny. My [now] husband and I truly felt like Marsha took the time to get to know us and to understand our relationship. We felt comfortable going to her for advice and truly felt like we had control over our ceremony. She produced a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony. I strongly recommend Marsha to any couple that wants a custom and personal ceremony.

Amazing Officiant

Marsha brought a presence of love, wisdom, and calm to our wedding ceremony. A week before our wedding, our venue cancelled on us, throwing everything into chaos, but after a few days of panic, the moment Marsha stepped into the room for our rehearsal we and our families all breathed a big sigh of relief. That was the moment we understood that we'd have an amazing wedding. She helped us create the unique ceremony we wanted by offering her expert opinions, but ultimately leaving the choices up to us. Honestly, that alone was in stark contrast to most wedding vendors, parents, basically anyone who was involved in our wedding. A lot of vendors have one way to do weddings, and make it difficult to do it any other way. Marsha was not like that at all. We got tons of compliments on our ceremony and our officiant. Highly recommend!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
