Bobbie Makes Your Special Day Special

Bobbie really did a great job making our son and daughter in law’s wedding very special. She met with them several times prior to the wedding to understand them and what was important to them on their wedding day. It really helped reduce the stress levels leading up to the big day and made the ceremony extremely memorable.

The day of the ceremony Bobbie communicated with them several times before arriving which was very comforting. The ceremony itself was so beautiful and Bobbie did an exceptional job making it personalized, thoughtful and memorable.

Couldn’t be more happy and thankful for Bobbie

Great officiant!

We used Bobbie as our officiant earlier this month and she did not dissappoint. We were looking for someone professional but heartfelt. She was just that. She answered all our questions and was super easy to work with. She made the whole process so much easier for us and was a memorable part of our special day!

Bobbie was amazing to work with. We met on zoom a few times to create our perfect ceremony. Our guests were in awe at Bobbie. They thought that she knew us for YEARS with how well she described our love and our life together.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
