A beautifully written ceremony

Heather officiated our wedding and the ceremony content was absolutely beautifully written. We have family members and friends who speak Spanish, so she delivered parts of the ceremony in both English and Spanish. Heather listened to our desires for the ceremony and was very responsive throughout the planning process. She also drove all the way to Acadia for our wedding! I recommend her as your officiant if you want a thoughtfully written wedding ceremony from a very kind soul.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible job Heather Rose did. From the moment we met, she exuded warmth, professionalism, and genuine care for making our ceremony special. She took the time to get to know us, crafting a ceremony that felt uniquely tailored to our love story. Her eloquent words moved everyone present. Her calming presence and flawless delivery made our big day truly unforgettable. If you're searching for an officiant who will go above and beyond to make your wedding perfect, look no further!

Heather is the best

Heather is a dream writer. Not only does she speak well, but the words she wrote for our ceremony are beyond beautiful. We had a lot of requests/changes for what we wanted our ceremony to look/feel like. As a couple we endured a lot of loss. She incorporated our moments of silence/paying respects to those not with us ( I lost both my parents). Shortly before our wedding, we lost the joy/love of our life; our pup Boomer. She incorporated telling our story, and even managed to nicely advise our guests that our dogs ashes were embedded in our wedding bands. Not sure how she managed to make something so painfully to us, sound so beautiful…..but she did.

Heather understood the assignment and got our energy as a couple perfectly. We wanted sweet, sentimental, but also make it light and fun. She even kept her composure when bees started flying around us. She remained professional and fun. Speaking of fun;
my husband and I both came up with our own vows. We couldn’t agree on who would actually go first. So in our own fashion, we played rock, paper, scissors in front of everyone to see who would read their vows first. I still don’t know how she managed to make announcing that we are going to play rock, paper, scissors sound romantic, but she did. Heather nailed reflecting us as a couple and did it so beautifully. If you want a fun, sweet, sentimental officiant, Heather is your girl.

Such A Ray of Sunshine!

Heather Rose, I am convinced, is an angel sent to Maine. This woman exudes joy and enthusiasm for what she does and works so hard to ensure her couples get exactly what they want. She crafted the most beautiful heartfelt ceremony that included much of what I mentioned in our initial call and then allowed me to add some special touches to make it our own! Arrived early and was very go-with-the-flow even when things went awry. 10/10 would recommend her services every time!

Heather Rose for the elopement win!

I found Heather on Wedding Wire, she was a great partner for our elopement! My initial emails with Heather were returned promptly, she quickly scheduled an interview call with me at my convenience. She put me at ease on the call and seemed like such a warm and delightful person! She helped put me at ease about our ceremony, as we were road tripping from Texas to Maine for our elopement in the Acadia National Park. She kept in touch with me between our first call and our wedding day and sent me helpful information on how to get married in Maine and notes about the speech she was writing for our ceremony. She drove across the state for our ceremony cheerfully, hiked to our wedding site and was such a joy to spend our wedding day with. Her speech for our wedding was so sweet and thoughtful. Heather was a great partner for us, 10/10 would highly recommend!

Heather made an amazing ceremony

Heather wrote an amazing ceremony somehow without ever meeting us in person. She was able to take the details of our relationship and preferences and craft a beautiful speech about our union. I appreciated that she also gave us the chance to read a draft and suggest any edits. She also helped incorporate knot- tying into our ceremony. I was a little hesitant to hire someone off the internet, but working with Heather Rose really worked out for us. Thank you Heather!
