Amazing!!!

If you’re looking for someone fun but serious about what they do. Book Gail!!! I was looking online for someone to marry my husband and I. It worried me because I wanted someone who would take the ceremony seriously but someone who would make everything feel less nerve wrecking and heartwarming. Someone who wouldn’t just marry us to marry us and read word per word with a “let’s get over this already” attitude. Well I found Gail on a website called Wedfolio I believe, there were a couple that I showed interested in but Gail’s way of approaching me and making everything seem okay especially during these times of this pandemic, made me feel comfortable enough to continue discussing my options with her. Someone else’s first question was well are you worried about a ceremony with about 30 people in a house during this pandemic? Like seriously? Are you here to marry me or to judge me? Gail did not make me feel that way at all. She made every conversation fun but made it clear to me or everything I’d need. She made sure I had my marriage license first and prepared me for my wedding day. If you book Gail you will not regret it. She’s very personable and motherly like and at the end of the day, you want someone who is genuinely happy to marry you, not someone who will do it for the money or because it’s there job. Gail truly loves what she does!!!

Her prices were reasonable and scripts were sent in a timely manner!!

Thanks for everything Gail!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Gail was Great!

I’d highly recommend Gail to celebrate your wedding. She did a terrific job by first giving us a consultation of what she offers, followed by following up with us several times before our big day. She gave us a script based on what we asked for, in which she customized to our liking. She was early for our wedding and did a fantastic job for no real rehearsal.

Gail was the best decision we made for our wedding!

After 19 years together we decided to finally make it official. One of the best decisions we made was picking Gail to marry us. Gail truly made our ceremony special and perfect for us. We talked about everything we needed from the marriage license to script and plan. She prepared the script weeks before and sent it to us so we could read it and aside from the fact that it was very practical to have it ahead of time, she absolutely had me in tears just reading it. We had the chance to add a few things. She checked in with us a few days before to make sure we had everything lined up, we discussed the plan, what her role would be, from communicating with the DJ and photographer, to going over script again and what to expect so all could be in sync during the ceremony. It made us feel at ease during planning time knowing that everything would go smoothly and it did. The result was a wonderful ceremony. Gail was invested and gave us an amazing performance. Her words, her demeanor, her thoughtfulness, she made it so special. We did a comic book themed wedding and she even went along with our kids doing a fighting pose stunt during the ceremony. She incorporated it as part of her script. Thank you Gail for being an integral part of our wedding. We would give more than 5 stars if we could. Claudia & Juan.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
