Wouldn’t have had it any other way

The ceremony was everything I dreamed of and more! Josie recited the most beautiful poem for us and my husband even had it famed along with our vows. I wouldn’t have had it any other way!

We had a very positive and beautiful wedding ceremony experience working with Pursu happiness

Josepha has worked closely and diligently with us to custom-design and prepare our unique spiritual ceremony that combined wedding traditions of various historical & geographical origins. We've rehearsed with Josie together virtually prior to the wedding and were very overall very pleased with her creativity, dedication and personalized approach.
We definitely recommend Josepha Dillon (Josie) as your wedding Officiant (Ceremony master) for a spiritual type of a ceremony.
