MaryBeth is an incredible wedding officiator. My spouse and I met during the pandemic, and our families live all over the US, which didn't give our families a lot of time to get to know each other to the level our friends did. For many of our family members and extended friend guests, our wedding was the first time they met our spouses. Which is why it was soooo wonderful that those who were invited to the wedding remarked, "Wow, because of how thoughtful that ceremony was, I feel like I've known your spouse forever and get why you all are such a good fit!" It was so special to hear that everyone felt like they got to know us better and our love story because of MaryBeth's ceremony.

This makes sense, given how MaryBeth structures everything. Months out from your wedding, she has a call with you to learn what your goals, intentions, and values are as a couple. She'll review what traditions are important or unimportant to you and how you want the whole tone of the ceremony to be (e.g., light-hearted, sentimental, quirky, etc.). She'll also walk you through every bit of logistics (like mailing/applying for your marriage license). She made the whole thing such a beautiful EASY experience. I knew the one thing I didn't have to worry about was my ceremony.

EVERYONE at our wedding remarked (and still remarks) something to the effect of "That was the most special/beautiful wedding ceremony I've ever witnessed." Truly, it's probably the thing I get complimented on the most (sorry, dress! lol)

If you're looking for an officiant who has the gift of telling your unique story as a couple, and expressing your values and ambitions as a couple together in the most personable way possible, hire MaryBeth. She is hands-down the best.

(It's also worth mentioning that I was raised Catholic, and my spouse is Jewish, but neither of us are too traditional, and MaryBeth did a wonderful job weaving in and explaining to the crowd certain traditions like the breaking of the glass so everyone felt included/respected.)

MaryBeth was the most wonderful officiant in all aspects. Throughout the wedding planning process we appreciated her clear and responsive communication, and flexibility to work with our busy schedules. She gave us each separate prompts to fill out which she then weaved together to write a beautiful ceremony built on our unique love story. She also did a fantastic job incorporating our mixed religious backgrounds into the ceremony. Because of her work, the ceremony was one of my favorite parts of the wedding, and several guests told us that it was the best wedding ceremony they'd ever seen. I'd highly recommend hiring MaryBeth!

My Husband and I got to met Marybeth originally at my Brothers wedding that she was officiating. She had us tearing up at one point then laughing at another. Marybeth's speaking voice and way she tells your story is so powerful and moving. Once I got engaged there was no question that she was THE ONE! She was actually the first 'vendor' crossed off the list because we were that sure. Marybeth had us answer questions to get to know us better, just from that information she officiated the most beautiful ceremony. You would have thought she had known my husband and I our whole lives. I even went a little over board and asked her if I would involve our parents to give her a perspective on how my husband and I are and she incorporated it so well into the ceremony. The best line Marybeth said on our wedding day that validated that she knows us is when she said "Baseline Goofball Magic"! THATS US! Marybeth doesn't have a script that she plugs names and dates into, with her you are receiving your love story so beautifully written out that will touch you and your guests.

We truly couldn't have dreamt of a better officiant than MaryBeth with SparkVision! She spent a lot of time on our ceremony and it was so personal and true to us--we were teary-eyed for most of the ceremony (but still got plenty of laughs in). We've been basking in how wonderful it was and we keep hearing nonstop from our loved ones how much they enjoyed hearing our story and how it was such a unique and wonderful wedding ceremony. MaryBeth was easy to work with, so kind, and very flexible and open to our vision. Due to the pandemic, we had a fully virtual wedding and she was fully onboard and even let us use some of her audio equipment to make sure the sound quality was good as we streamed it. Even under these unusual circumstances, she made us feel special and told our love story phenomenally. We would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone. Well worth it.

The narration of our ceremony was perfect. The love story that was told was authentic beautifully shared with our closest family and friends.

MaryBeth has a unique and special approach for couples like no other. The best way to describe her is getting married by your best friend. She is fully present, open, and willing to do what's needed/wanted but she also has this great way of having the bride and groom answer questions separately that she sends and then creates an incredible story from both our answers in such a special and heartfelt way with her own touches that she's added. MaryBeth made our wedding ceremony more special than we could have imagined it to be and for that we are forever grateful. I don't just recommend MaryBeth; I explicitly feel she's the best anyone could choose and you'd miss out without her.

Thanks to MaryBeth’s thoughtfulness and passion for sharing our unique and authentic love story, our ceremony was absolutely perfect. The ceremony was flawlessly executed and she made the prep leading up to our big day seamless. She poetically brought together a ceremony filled with love, laughter, and anecdotes, as we solidified our forever bond as not only husband and wife, but partner in love and life, and shared our love story with our family and friends. She made the most important part of our wedding one of the most memorable experience of our lives. She takes the time to get to know you as a couple, and while we didn’t want to write our own vows, she created customized, meaningful vows that we will forever cherish. I’d marry my husband a million times over again, and would make sure MaryBeth officiated again every single time.

MaryBeth put together the most beautiful, thoughtful, personal ceremony for our wedding day. She took time to speak to us together and separately when preparing the ceremony. We were asked to answer personal and thoughtful questions to give a good glimpse into our life as a couple. We loved how she took these details and weaved them into a beautiful story to share with our guests. I would HIGHLY recommend her and Love Lens so anyone who wants a heartfelt, personalized wedding!

Where do I begin! From the first consultation to the ceremony, Marybeth made us feel at ease and completely calm. She brought a peace over us at a time where stress can be high and anxiety is creeping in. She delivered a custom ceremony that my guests have personally contacted me about how unique and magical it was. She created a journey that had each of my guests listening to every word and taking them on our special journey to each other. I could not have asked nor wished for a better ceremony for my wedding day. She did everything as promised, answered all of our questions ( I had a lot lol), and was the rock I needed the day of the ceremony to just breathe. I cannot thank her enough for making the day even more special than it already was.

MaryBeth set the whole tone for our wedding. She made every guest at our wedding feel as though they have known us our whole lives. Because of MaryBeth, the ceremony was so personal, intimate, and absolutely perfect!!! During the reception, almost every guest commented on how beautiful the ceremony was and how amazing MaryBeth was. Almost a year later, people are still commenting on how great MaryBeth did.

If you are looking for a personalized, intimate, and amazing ceremony, MaryBeth is a must as your officiant!
