An amazing day to remember!

We are so happy Carolyn was available for our elopement! Being from the east coast, we didn't really know who to reach out to so we were thrilled when she came highly recommended. She was so easy to work with and guided us through the whole process, not just the ceremony development, but also all of the ins-and-outs of obtaining a marriage license in another state as well as some of the local spots for having our ceremony. We had no idea that from a simple couples questionnaire, she would be able to create such a thoughtful, personalized, and beautiful ceremony that incorporated the many, many things that we wanted to include like specific readings, pauses for a cocktial, tying the knot, and even setting up a table with photos of our family. She listened to us and gave us even more than what we imagined. We will be remembering the day always and are so thankful to have worked with her.

Truly a beautiful soul!

We are so incredibly grateful to have had Carolyn Greenwood officiate our wedding through Oregon Beach Ceremonies. From the moment we connected with Carolyn we were at ease with her kindness and care.

Our wedding plans hit an unexpected hurdle with a last-minute venue change, and Carolyn's quick thinking and seamless coordination with our photographer turned what could have been a stressful situation into a smooth and beautiful experience. Her suggestion for a new location was perfect, and she helped make the transition so effortless.

Throughout the entire process, Carolyn made sure our ceremony was unique, personal, and heartfelt. She helped create an atmosphere where we felt fully seen and supported, which made our special day even more meaningful.

We are forever thankful to Carolyn for her kindness, professionalism, and the love she brought to our ceremony. She is a true testament to what it means to be an ally, and we will cherish her role in our wedding for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Carolyn, for making our day as beautiful and unforgettable as it was!

Dreamy and perfect

My new spouse and I will be forever grateful for how smoothly and perfectly our elopement ceremony with Carolyn went. There was not a single moment of stress leading up to the day. She kept the ceremony time flexible and rallied the troops together when the weather was just right, and the ceremony itself was so incredibly thoughtful and meaningful. Thanks to her, we could enjoy our trip fully without distractions or distress. I genuinely can't imagine anything having gone better! You absolutely will not regret choosing Oregon beach Ceremonies for your wedding. Thank you so, so much, Carolyn, and thank you to all of the vendors and witnesses as well. We're going to cherish this for the rest of our lives.
