She was great, friendly and polite and knew when to step in and facilitate and when to step back. The experience felt unpressured, unrushed. Very respectful language chosen for the ceremony. She was a great photographer and we had so much fun. 10/10. Would get married again!

The Heart and Soul of Our Wedding Day
Carmen George was an absolute gem and a vital part of our wedding day! Not only did she officiate our ceremony as Justice of the Peace, but she also created the most stunning floral arrangements that perfectly complemented our colors and the season.
In the months leading up to the wedding, Carmen took the time to have several calls with us, offering thoughtful guidance on everything from flowers for our arbor and bouquet to corsages and boutonnieres. Her expertise and creativity brought our floral vision to life in a way that exceeded our expectations.
When it came to our ceremony, Carmen truly went above and beyond. She walked us through all the parts of the ceremony, gave recommendations on where and when we needed music or audience participation, and even helped us create a unique unity ceremony. On the big day, our guests couldn’t stop talking about how our vows were their favorite part of the celebration. Although we had kept our vows a secret from each other, Carmen’s guidance helped us create vows that beautifully complemented each other—a true testament to her skill and understanding of who we are as a couple.
Carmen brought a warmth, professionalism, and personal touch to our wedding that made it truly unforgettable. We were able to relax and tune into her words during the ceremony that brought such a calm over us. If you’re looking for someone who can seamlessly combine artistry and heartfelt connection, we cannot recommend Carmen George highly enough. She made our day everything we dreamed it would be and more!

Excellence Simplified
From the moment we attended our friend's beautifully orchestrated wedding and saw Carmen in action as the officiant, we were confident she was the one we wanted for our special day. The decision became even more apparent when we first spoke with her; Carmen’s warmth and unwavering professionalism confirmed our choice.
Carmen was nothing short of exceptional in her role. She expertly guided us through each stage of the planning process with reassuring expertise and a keen attention to detail. Her flexibility in accommodating our budget constraints and her skill in choosing the perfect location significantly eased our stress.
Thanks to Carmen, our wedding was a dream come true. Her compassionate approach and seasoned professionalism made our day memorable and deeply personal. We are endlessly grateful to Carmen for her outstanding dedication. We sincerely hope she continues to bring joy and beautiful beginnings to many more couples.
With heartfelt thanks,
Nene & Daniel

Easy, Fun, Well Priced
Carmen is so easy to get along with, made us feel at ease and was very prepared. We reached out only a few days in advance and she made it happen, explained the process clearly, and even made time to discuss our wants/needs before hand. Day of was perfect, she had great recommendations on locations on her site and we honestly could not have asked for a more perfect experience thanks to her. If you are looking for someone in the Burlington area, she absolutely the right choice.

Really Wonderful...
We chose Carmen to officiate at our wedding based on her rave reviews, and she deserves every one of them! Carmen took time with me initially to discuss the day in general, and then with the two of us to run through the details as the day approached. We drove up from out of state, and she knew Vermont’s process and answered every nervous email I sent within minutes. And she was always so kind, and calming, and happy for us.
We chose the elopement package, and I truly could not have asked for a more perfect wedding. My husband recorded it with his phone, and I tear up every time I listen to the beautiful things she said. The bouquet she made is gorgeous. I opted for silk flowers, because I asked for peonies and we got married in March, and it’s so lovely. After the ceremony, she took lots of pictures in different areas of the chapel and outside. I felt so at ease, and while I’m usually not happy with the way I look in photos, I cannot believe how much I love them!
I married the man I love with all of my heart, so it would have been a wonderful day regardless. But it was absolutely perfect, and we owe most of it to Carmen. She was made for this. Thank you so much for everything!

Carmen George is the BEST!
We chose Carmen as our officiant and photographer for our recent wedding at the Sterling Ridge Resort. She far exceeded our expectations in both capacities. Our ceremony was intimate, and very meaningful. She learned our vibe as a couple, included our small group of family and friends, and most importantly she truly cares.
Our photographs are beautiful and filled with emotion. She captured the surrounding landscape, our love for one another, and the joy and friendship of our guests.
I highly recommend using Carmen for you wedding.

Absolutely Amazing!
Carmen was the perfect fit to officiate our wedding! She put us at ease and made us feel so comfortable. She truly makes you feel so special as a couple during the ceremony and in communications leading up. She was quick to respond and help in any way possible. Her added knowledge of florals and photography was extremely helpful, especially during our rehearsal. She gave so many tips and tricks and made sure everyone felt confident for the wedding day. She added little personal touches into the ceremony that she had learned during our several conversations leading up to the big day. She included all the guests in the ceremony and guided us through a beautiful ceremony.
We highly recommend her and know she will make your ceremony memorable and perfect!

She acts like family
Carmen George was recommended to me by the hotel of Vermont as a photographer for my proposal. After filling out an inquiry on her website she quickly responded back. She worked with me on a few ideas i had for the proposal location and plan. Right away I could tell she was a professional. Not only that but she has a genuine desire for this moment to go flawlessly for us. She even went to the proposal location 4 weeks in advance to scope it out. This included asking two people to do a mock proposal at the location so i could get an idea of what it would look like. (It was a beautiful shot and location). As we got closer to the date Carmen offered to cancel her plans the day after incase we got rain on the day of the planned proposal! Luckily we didn’t have to do this. Finally, as i walked to our spot with my special someone for the big question i thought she didn’t show up since she was no where to be found. I knew i had to continue with the proposal even so. Shortly after saying my speach and getting down in one knee she appeared from the bushes in a nice camouflage dress. I will end this review here because it is getting too long but hope that anyone who has read this gets the idea that Carmen is the one you want to hire for your special moment. Thank you
