Wonderful Words at our Winter Wedding!
My wife and I got married last December in the beautiful city of Redlands. We were lucky enough to run across Love Story Vows where we met Heidi who has a lovely personality, loves love, and actually strives to make a connection with her couples.
We spoke with her on several occasions leading up to the wedding getting to know each other. Throughout the whole process she made herself available for any and all questions we had. We truly appreciated that. It was that connection (and the way she orchestrates the ceremony) made the having her as our officiant that much more meaningful. We made the right choice going with Love Story Vows!
Amazing!
Heidi is the best!
Absolutely wonderful experience!

Simply put, I really enjoy working with Heidi! I've worked with her since 2006 and have always found her to be upbeat and positive, which really helps with weddings as there can be a certain amount of pressure to make sure everything is as close to perfect as you can get. And that's where Heidi shines: she's calm and even-keeled and she listens to your thoughts, concerns, questions, and addresses them in a manner that helps you to feel calm and less stressed about not only the ceremony, but the whole wedding planning process. Just one call to her and you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. She's one of the best!
Heidi from Love Story Vows is an exceptional person, colleague, and professional! I have known Heidi for over 20 years! And it wasn't difficult to choose my wedding officiant for myself and my husband. Heidi was our first choice! And what an amazing ceremony it was! She helped us incorporate our kids, make it unique, and certainly brought laughter and tears to everyone! She helped me stay calm during the planning process. She stayed in touch daily. And she even stayed with us all night to celebrate! Thank you Heidi....so so much!
I have worked with many officiants throughout my time as an event coordinator. Heidi with Love Story Vows has been my favorite. She makes it a priority to cater to the couples every need. She is attentive, kind and professional. You can see how passionate she is about what she does from the first conversation. I would highly recommend Heidi to anyone looking for her services. She and her husband are both very involved in this industry and definitely know what they are doing.
