Absolutely perfect ceremony

Patricia was incredible! My husband and I had a hard time finding someone local to officiate our wedding. Patricia came from over an hour away. She was very easy to talk to, she asked great questions to get to know us, and wrote an amazing ceremony. She knew my husband and I were very nervous to speak in front of a lot of people and she made it very easy. Most people are still talking about our ceremony and saying how perfect the service was. I would highly recommend Patricia to anyone! She is an incredible writer and will make your ceremony perfect and memorable.

Patricia made all of our wedding dreams come true!!

Patricia helped us create the most beautiful Jewish Catholic ceremony for my husband and I. We were a little unsure how to go about this entire process as we both wanted to incorporate traditions, prayers etc. from each religion. Patricia was so helpful throughout this process and created just the most beautiful, memorable ceremony (despite the crazy heat)!!!! We are so lucky to have worked with you, Patricia! Thank you again.

Excellent Officiant

Patricia was great! She wrote a custom ceremony for us that made people both laugh and cry. We did a unity ritual that many people had said they'd never seen before, but they loved it. The ceremony was not too short and not long and drawn out. It was perfect!

Wonderful Personalized Ceremony

Patricia was wonderful to work with throughout the entire planning process! Our wedding was in Saratoga Springs on 9/30/18 but were living 3 hours away so we needed someone who could work with us long distance. She was extremely helpful via phone and email, and the questionnaire she sent allowed her to create a personal, meaningful ceremony. We received many compliments on how well written and personal our ceremony was and we couldn't have been happier with choosing Patricia as our officiant!

Intimate Ceremony and a Wonderful Storyteller

Patricia captured everything that we wanted for our intimate ceremony. She wrote our love story and actively included our 4 children with a beautiful "sand ceremony" that included the 6 of us together. Patricia lead our guests with ease and projected beautifully and eloquently while we stood at the lake. She was professional, caring, and performed every task on time prior to our day. I'm grateful for her insight and experience as she created something beautiful for our family that will last a lifetime. Everything was perfect.

Patricia did an amazing job writing and officiating our ceremony. She has a beautiful way with words and is open to whatever style you are looking for on your special day. Our amazing day was made even better with her kind words, articulate manner of speaking, and keen attention to detail. She is an amazing woman all-around. Thank you, Patricia!

Patricia was an amazing officiant that exceeded our every expectation. She is a true professional that cares deeply about creating the most meaningful ceremony that you have always dreamed of. Patricia worked with us throughout multiple drafts of our ceremony script and really took the time to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. We were married in Jefferson, New York on a small farm and are so grateful that Patricia was there beside us helping us both articulate our vows, dreams, story, and love. Patricia is a wonderful officiant, and I can't recommend her enough. THANK YOU PATRICIA!

Patricia married us on August 18, 2018. It was a very small service in a small chapel in the Adirondacks. I want to thank her so much for making it feel like it was a "big" service even though it wasn't (but it was to us)! It meant so much, words can not describe. We will never forget Patricia and how she helped make our wedding one the most important days of our lives. Patricia, you have a gift and I'm glad you are able to share it with so many of us! Thank you just doesn't seem to be enough !!!!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
