Shannon is Fantastic!

Shannon made our ceremony absolutely beautiful. She really understood my husband and I’s relationship. So many of our guests asked if she was an old friend because she nailed it so much. She had everyone laughing including my husband and I. She also spoke with such grace and light. By the end of the ceremony there wasn’t a dry eye there!

Shannon was a breeze to work with ( which I can’t say the same for any of our vendors…) she was responsive, patient, helpful, and most of all personable. Our meetings together did not feel like business at all. Instead we were having coffee together at 11AM on a Saturday just chatting about ourselves. If I could do it all over again, I would change A LOT of things; but I would pick Shannon to marry us every single time. She’s awesome.

Just hire Shannon, trust us

Shannon was absolutely wonderful. We have no regrets about hiring her for our big day. She was very professional from start to finish. All of our guest talked very highly of her and how personalized she made our ceremony. She’s also very flexible as we had to change our date with a few months notice. We can’t recommend her enough. She’s amazing and affordable and absolutely worth it!

We love Reverend Shannon!

Reverend Shannon Wall was exactly the person we were looking for to officiate our wedding. When it came to finding an officiant, my husband and I at first felt somewhat lost. We wanted a ceremony that while being non-religious had spiritual elements to pay tribute to our Christian upbringings. Shannon was warm, kind, knowledgeable and professional from the moment we met her, and we immediately knew we were in good hands. She was able to customize a ceremony that fit what we had envisioned perfectly. I cannot recommend her enough!

Absolutely fantastic

We received so many compliments of Rev. Shannon's ceremony that she performed at the Waterview. Our guests were shocked that we had only met her in person the day before at our rehearsal since she made our ceremony feel like she knew us since the beginning of our relationship. Would 100% recommend this kind and genuine officiant!!

Incredibly Thoughtful and Effective Officiant

Shannon is everything we were hoping for in an officiant and more. She has a very calm and thoughtful demeanor, and guided us through the process with such kindness and professionalism, from the first call through the wedding day. Shannon took the time over several calls to get to know us and customize the ceremony to our personalities and needs. She was especially helpful to my husband and I in combining a religious and non-religious background into a ceremony that was comfortable and meaningful to both of us. Her knowledge base spans multiple religious traditions and wedding customs (as well as legal and paperwork requirements), and her focus is entirely on the couple and their wants. She was fantastic at our rehearsal, interfacing with both the venue and the wedding party/families, wrangling everyone expertly into their places so we were fully prepared for the next day. Shannon was an incredibly helpful and impactful part of our marriage preparation and wedding day, and I recommend her wholeheartedly.

Excellent Job

Rev. Shannon did a great job in guiding my wife and I through the journey of getting married. My wife and I have different religious views but Rev. Shannon was able to find a way to accommodate both our wants for the ceremony. She was a source of warmth and calm throughout the process which definitely made us feel more comfortable. Her performance of the ceremony was professional but also relaxed. I could not recommend her more highly.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
