10/10/10/10!!!!!! Couldn’t ask for better

I had the absolute pleasure of having My Officiant Gina at our wedding, and she truly exceeded all expectations. Gina's responsiveness and attention to detail were outstanding. She took the time to get to know us, crafting a personalized script that made our ceremony uniquely special. Gina's presence made our day truly over the top, and I couldn't imagine it without her. I highly recommend her to anyone in search of an officiant; she's absolutely incredible, and I can't express enough how grateful we are for her role in making our day unforgettable.

Gentle Gina

Gina is kind, quick to respond, and easy!!! I talked to some others first (for a simple elopement) and they needed to talk with me and this and that even after I said 5 minute ceremony, no frills. When I worked with Gina, it was SIMPLE...she sends a quetionaire that you can do on your own time. If you need more of her attention, she'll give it but she followed my lead and didn't bug me!!! Also, above average responsiveness!!! TY Gina!

Gina was just what we hoped for ...

From the first phone call through til the end of the ceremony, Gina was present, kind, professional. She has a warmth and intuition that she brings to her service. She went the extra mile, literally, to officiate at our wedding, which was a bit of a drive for her. We couldn't have asked for more. Her cost for service is reasonable.

We highly recommend Gina!

If I could give 6 stars, I would!

Mrs. Gina was amazing from the beginning to even after the wedding! Her communication, attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and willingness to truly go the distance would warrant my recommendation for sure. I had no clue how I wanted my ceremony to go, and she was great at making a dialogue that fit our needs even with the little details I had given her to start out with. She was very easy to reach and answered any questions we had leading up to and during the wedding. The cherry on top was her ability to go above and beyond her labeled services... she very graciously provided us with a few sneak peeks of our wedding pictures (which came out great), and when the worst nightmare of any newlyweds happened... (the postal system had lost our licenses in the mail) she jumped into action to do whatever she could to ensure we got everything submitted how it was supposed to be. I cannot thank her enough for everything she has done to ease this tired bride's mind! If you're ever in need of an angel to marry you, this is your officiant!

10 out of 10 would recommend!

My wife and I went to New Orleans to elope and Gina was the perfect officiant for our private ceremony! She did a fantastic job writing the ceremony and took care in implementing our input into it.

On the actual day of Gina met us downtown for the ceremony, gave us all the important information we needed, then delivered the ceremony. Would highly recommend if you’re getting married in the area!

Best in town.

Gena was the perfect officiant for our big day! We chose her to officiate our micro wedding in WESTBANK. She took time to get to know us and write the perfect script. I loved her attention to detail and beautiful personality! I would recommend her to anyone looking to complete their perfect day! She’s amazing!
