The ceremony of our dreams!

We had such a wonderful time working with Mary and she gave us the wedding ceremony of our dreams - we really can't get over how incredible it was. From the moment we first made contact with her we could tell we had stumbled upon something really special. She is unique because she really took the time to get to know us. She got to know who we were as individuals and who we were as a couple, and from there she created the most beautiful, stunning ceremony. We had spoken with several other options for this role in our wedding before we encountered Mary and we always came away with the same feeling - that the ceremony would be thrown together without much personalization. Mary put us at ease and worked with us over time to perfect and fully personalize our ceremony, always listening astutely to our wishes and our feelings. She is very perceptive, sensitive and experienced in this, and when she presented us with the final version of our ceremony I'll never forget the feeling that came over me - I had butterflies! Our ceremony was perfection! We're still hearing from guests about how much they enjoyed it, and they all said it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever attended. She did such an incredible job and we have been recommending her to everyone that we can ever since. Do yourself a favor and hire her - you won't regret it!

Her heartfelt ceremony left an emotional impact on all of us, making the occasion truly special. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND her!

Mary helped us to create not just a memorable ceremony but the experience of our lives! It was truly out of our dreams!
Mary worked with us to find the most meaningful way to celebrate and honor our love, helped us to craft our vows and joyfully delivered a magical seal to bless our union.
I will never be able to adequately express how grateful we are for her authentic care & joy as she helped us tie the knot! Thank you Mary!

Mary Johnson is the best!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There are moments in life when words seem inadequate when emotions run too deep for language to capture. As a group of five best friends embarking on an extraordinary journey to celebrate our collective love and commitment to each other, we needed someone who could truly understand and honor the essence of our unique bond. Mary Johnson was that beacon of understanding and light.

From the moment we met Mary, we felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and understanding. Her radiant spirit and genuine love for what she does shines through every interaction. Mary isn’t just a celebrant; she is an artist of the human spirit, weaving together stories, emotions, and dreams into a tapestry that perfectly encapsulates the unique journey of each group or couple she works with.

Our wedding wasn't the conventional union of two; it was a sacred circle of five. Five souls standing in perfect harmony, where no one stands in front and no one stands behind, no one stands higher, and no one stands lower. Mary immediately grasped the profound significance of our circle. She understood that in our circle, we are all equal, all cherished, and all pivotal to the magic we share. And she captured this with her signature sparkle, bringing our vision to life in a way that exceeded all our expectations.

The comprehensive package she offers is testament to her commitment to excellence. Every consultation felt like a cherished conversation between lifelong friends. She genuinely listened to each of our stories, our wishes, and our shared dreams for the future.

On our big day, Mary delivered a ceremony that celebrated our unique bond, leaving not a single dry eye among us.

In Mary, we didn’t just find a celebrant; we found a friend, a confidante, and a beacon of light guiding our group's shared journey. If you are looking for someone to truly honor your unique story and make your day unforgettable, Mary Johnson is the one. She gifts memories that last a lifetime.

Thank you, Mary, for making our day immeasurably beautiful. Our circle of love is forever grateful.

Incredible Experience

Mary was an absolute pleasure to work with. We met with her several times the year before our wedding and each time it was like meeting with an old friend. Her attention to detail and the way that she customizes her ceremonies to fit the needs of the couple is unmatched. So many of our guests complimented out ceremony, as it was both personal and memorable. We opted to have her create a bound book of our ceremony and she customized it to fit the theme of our wedding, it was a great keepsake and I am glad we did it. Thank you Mary!

Custom tailored wedding ceremonies

Mary was a wonderful officiant for our wedding. She walks us through the ceremony writing process and really took the time to get to know us. The ceremony was wonderfully done and felt custom tailored to us as a couple. Any affianced couple would be wise to use her as their wedding officiant!!!

Mary is the best! You NEED her!

Mary was everything we wanted and more. She spent time getting to know my husband and I as a couple and customized our ceremony to us. Our ceremony was beautiful because of this. She really went above and beyond for us and we are so grateful!

Beautiful experience

Working with Mary was an amazing experience and an absolute pleasure. The ceremony she wrote for us was very personalized to us as a couple, she helped us incorporate a creative hand fasting ceremony, listened to what was important to us and gave us the ceremony of our dreams. Our guests were very complimentary of our ceremony and we can only recommend her as an officiant.
Thank you , Mary for making our day so much more special!

Mary is exceptional!

Mary was truly amazing to work with in creating our unique and special wedding ceremony. Her guidance and support was invaluable throughout the entire process from start to finish. Everyone in our families raved about how eloquent and moving Mary was during the ceremony, even our other vendors told us how amazing she was compared to officiants who had been to the venue in the past! We cannot recommend her enough. 5 stars!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
