Perfect Officiant!

We first found Simone when we were searching for an officiant for our destination wedding. We wanted something that would be customized and personal to us, not just a cookie cutter script. We had an initial phone call with her, where we asked her some questions and she asked us some questions, including our love story that brought us to our wedding. After the initial phone call, Simone wrote a draft of our ceremony and sent it to us to look over, and she nailed it! She picked up on core moments in our love story that were meaningful to us and integrated them into our ceremony. As I was looking into services she offered, I discovered that she also offered premarital counseling. This was something that was very important to me to have before marriage. I inquired and Simone gave an overview of the areas she covers during premarital counseling. She also offers this great service at a reasonable rate. We started counseling with Simone and went through a couple of the topics she covers in her program, but even more importantly, she was very open to helping us on current topics we wanted guidance on. We started our search in hopes of finding an officiant who would be open to customizing a ceremony that was personal to us and through the course of our counseling, we developed a friendship with Simone. The ceremony was absolutely perfect and we definitely felt like we were there with a friend!

Simone was great! I planned my wedding from out of state, so we did everything through Skype. She wrote a beautiful sermon for us after talking with us and truly made it personal. I never felt like she was trying to plug our details into a template. She helped us include everyone in our wedding and even made a few suggestions based off of what she had seen work well in the past. She showed up looking professional and her garments matched well with the wedding party. She travelled from out of town to be there the night before and attend our wedding rehearsal. She showed up to the rehearsal and helped to get everyone into place and organized the rehearsal for us. She was even thoughtful enough to move to the side so our photographer could get a first kiss photo of just my husband and I! I couldn't have been more pleased with our selection in Simone and I got many compliments on how well the ceremony went.

Rev Simone, made our day and the days leading up to it amazing! She took time out to get to know my husband and myself and to write a personalized ceremony for us on our day. She definetly went above and beyond to learn about us and to help us learn about ourselves individually and in our realationship as a unit. I appreciate everything Simone taught us and everything she did to share and join in with us on our special day!

Rev. Simone Shepard is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! I meet Simone at a networking event and hit it off immediately. When my husband and I were deciding on what do do for our wedding, we knew Simone was our lady. She was so calm and helpful with everything. She wrote our ceremony for us specifically...and she was open to changes that we wanted to make. She did not get upset or hurt that we wanted to change a few things with the ceremony. She also got into our quirkiness. She did not judge that we wanted to have a fun and very laid back wedding. We didn't do much traditional at our wedding and that was fine with her. She encouraged us to be ourselves and enjoy our day. Choosing to have Simone marry us was one of the best wedding planning decisions we made. We not only got married, but we made a friend for life. Thanks Simone!!!
