Could not have chosen a better minister

We are very grateful that we found Crystal as she really made our wedding extra special. She provided helpful ideas and feedback in writing our vows and took the time to really get to know us to make our ceremony extra meaningful. Crystal is a real gem! :-)

Simplistic elegant ceremony

I don’t know what we would have done if we never found this officiant service. Everything was perfect and so personable! We were so nervous during our ceremony but she brought a calm. Everything went perfect and even though it was windy and some floral fell over she was not shaken and went with the flow and made everything so natural. I would 100/100 recommend to any of my friends getting married in the area.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I had the pleasure of connecting with Crystal this spring to plan a small, sweet ceremony for my couple coming up from Florida to get married at their family cottage on the shores of Lake Michigan. They immediately felt comfortable entrusting their wedding ceremony to Crystal after their initial consultation, and booked her right away! Crystal was able to work with my couple over a short time period to create a truly sweet and meaningful experience, and was such a pleasure to work with on wedding day! I appreciated how she connected with each family member and vendor on-site, and was adaptable and flexible as we made some last minute set up adjustments on the morning of! I would highly recommend Crystal for a wonderful, memorable, and special wedding ceremony in Northern Michigan!
