Absolutely Amazing!!

We were so lucky to have Trish apart of our wedding day! Our guests raved about our ceremony because of her! They were touched by her message during the ceremony and how well it was delivered. Communication with Trish was never a problem and we always received a rapid response. She was professional, friendly, sincere and welcoming to friends, family and guests! We adore her and would recommend her in a heartbeat!

I HIGHLY recommend Trish! She made us feel so comfortable and it felt so natural. She is tentative and very thorough. Wouldn’t have had anyone else officiate my wedding!

The BEST officiant to marry us!

We got married April 27th, 2024 and Trish was amazing! I knew the second I had our initial call she was the one to marry us. She was so helpful in our planning process and provided us with a template so we could create our perfect ceremony script. We couldn't have done it without her! 10/10 recommend!

Friendly and Professional!

Trish came highly recommended by our wedding coordinator and she lived up to her reputation! She was consistently friendly, personable, and professional. After speaking with her about her experience officiating weddings, we felt we’d be in good hands, and we were! She was happy to do as much or as little for her part in our ceremony as we wanted and made it a breeze to work with her. Since we were looking for some guidance, she sent us some ceremony samples that we customized to make our own, which was a great help. When our wedding day arrived, Trish worked closely with our coordinator and helped everything go smoothly. She skillfully rolled through wind issues with aplomb. And of course she handled all the paperwork that was necessary. We’d certainly recommend her to other couples!

Highly Recommend!

We hired Trish about a month and a half out after our original officiant backed out. We were so lucky that Trish was available for our big day. She is prompt, professional, and truly knows her stuff. We discussed our wants and desires and she followed through accordingly to help make sure our day was perfect. If you are looking for an officiant we would highly recommend Trish!

Just what we needed!

We booked Trish for a sign and go. She was so easy to work with and flexible with both the timing of the sign and go and the fact that we had to change venues just a month out from our wedding. This is such a great service to have and we would recommend Trish to anyone.
