Our perfect ceremony

Bobbi helped to make our wedding day a dream come true. We wanted a shorter wedding that was focused on the love that we share. Bobbie put together the most beautiful readings that reflected everything we wanted in our ceremony.

Even before the wedding, Bobbie was always available. I called her a week before the ceremony panicking that I was forgetting things. She walked me through the entire ceremony, (Again) and assured me that everything was perfect and the ceremony would go flawlessly. She was absolutely right.

Thank you Bobbi for making our day a dream come true!

Perfect Day

Our ceremony couldn’t have gone better. Bobbie helped guide us through the experience weeks in advance and was able to custom tailor the ceremony exactly to fit our needs. Her suggestions were extraordinarily useful and helped bring our vision of our special day to life. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant!
