Highly Recommend Kristin

We saw Kristin officiate a friend's wedding last year and thought she did such a great job, we hired her to officiate ours this year! And we were very happy we did! Kristin is organized, reliable, and made the process of planning out the ceremony go very smoothly. When we decided we wanted to add a handfasting ceremony, she was game. I would recommend her to anyone!

Helpful and Experienced

Kristin officiated our intimate wedding ceremony and did a fantastic job! It was so helpful to have her guidance while figuring out what we wanted to include in our ceremony. She also explained everything we needed to do with our marriage license to become legally married. I highly recommend hiring Kristin to officiate your wedding!

She is awesome!

Kristin was awesome to work with! She answered any and all questions we had even the ones we thought were stupid and meaningless! She personalized both our ceremony and our blessing for our reception! We've gotten lots of compliments from our friends and families about Kristin! I would recommend her to anyone.

A Seamless Experience

It was a pleasure working with Kristin on our wedding. From our first meeting with her, my husband and I were just comfortable. She is approachable, worked in tandem with us on a lovely script and responded quickly to any questions that we had.

If you are stressing about choosing an officiant, schedule a meeting with her. I am sure that you will come to the same conclusion that we did and that is that Kristin is the choice for your wedding.

A highlight of the day!

I am so happy to have hired Kristin! She went above and beyond and I can't thank her enough. She was easy to get a hold of, very easy to work with, and super flexible. The day of the wedding she helped with things she didn't need to help with - from a transportation snafu to helping bustle my dress. I have got many compliments on her skill as an officiant and as a helpful person on the wedding day. On my list of vendors, Kristin definitely tops my list! Thank you Kristin!

Kristin wrote an amazing ceremony for my husband and I. She was also able to give us pointers for a unofficial rehearsal we had. She showed up 45 minutes ahead of time and spoke to each of us separately and told us what to expect. She was very easy to work with and even my guest kept commenting how perfect our ceremony was.

With just a few more months until my wedding, I found out our officiant would not be able to make the wedding. Panicking, I searched on Wedding Wire and found Kristin. She responded quickly and was kind and so personable. She made the rehearsal and wedding day so easy. She was completely open to my preferences and the ceremony that I wanted. While originally nervous about having someone new be our officiant just before the wedding, I now couldn't be happier that I found Kristin. I highly recommend her services!
