A Magical Wedding

Vanessa gave us a truly magical wedding. We still have guests telling us it was the best wedding they had ever been to, particularly referencing the ceremony and how they have never experienced a ceremony like it before. Vanessa, an expert storyteller, told our love story to our guests in such a way that they all felt they understood it and were now a part of that story. The ceremony was personal, and brought many to tears. I was personally blown away by how emotional it was listening to Vanessa describe our love story and sharing it with all of our family and friends. No one had experienced a ceremony like it before and they loved it! I feel like this is how all weddings should be! Vaness put in a lot of work ahead of time by providing the questionnaires she needed to get to know us and our story, she even spoke to some of our loved ones for their input as well. Vanessa met with us a few times to review our vision for the ceremony, provide her guidance, and ensure she understood how we wanted everything to flow. Vanessa was available for questions, promptly responded and gave us an experience like none other. We cannot recommend Vanessa enough to give you a magical wedding experience of a lifetime.

From the very beginning, Vanessa was incredibly organized, professional, and warm—she made the entire process feel effortless and stress-free. What stood out the most was how easy she was to work with. She took the time to understand us as a couple, our story, and what we wanted our ceremony to feel like. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, yet it all flowed so naturally, thanks to her calm and confident presence. On the big day, Vanessa delivered a captivating ceremony that was heartfelt, engaging, and truly memorable.

Magic Wedding CNY is the best!

Our wedding ceremony exceeded our expectations in every way, and we've been to a lot of weddings. Vanessa of Magic Wedding CNY was instrumental in making our special day truly unforgettable. We were impressed by her initial video call, during which she showcased her incredible positive energy, warmth, and professionalism, making us feel comfortable and confident in her abilities. Friends and families commented positively on how our ceremony was a reflection of us, and this was all in part due to Vanessa style of telling our story.

Great experience

Vanessa went above and beyond in officiating our ceremony! She was always approachable and patient with our questions, and provided ample details to help us feel comfortable even in the early stages of planning. One of my favorite aspects of the planning process was that she reached out to our family & friends in the months leading up to the wedding to help add details to our ceremony script. Our ceremony was outdoors in truly unpleasant weather, and yet our guests were raving about the personalized script and excellent storytelling by Vanessa. We are so grateful to her!

Search no further!

I would recommend Vanessa to anyone and everyone! She was absolutely phenomenal. If you want many of your wedding guests to tell you it was the most beautiful ceremony they’ve ever been to then she is right for you. Her attention to detail and genuine interest to learn about us to tell them best story possible blew us out of the water. They should add a 6th star to this rating.
