Reviews of Sacred Dove Celebrant
An amazing experience!
We were married in October. Her gardens were resplendent with color. The leaves were at their peak fall display and before we arrived, Judy went out and picked a bouquet of flowers for our occasion which was equally beautiful. We chose to be married with the fall colors as our background but there were many other choices in her gardens.
She seamlessly integrated our desired language into the ceremony which made the ceremony uniquely ours, not some cookie-cutter event that could have come out of a crackerjacks box.
When the ceremony was over, she had a bottle of Prosecco and a cake waiting for us.
She even volunteered to act as the wedding photographer if we wanted to avoid that expense.
Finally, when all was said and done, she followed us down to the town clerk and registered the marriage license for us. Within minutes, we walked away with our notarized copies, a happily married couple.
Judy made the event a joy to experience and we believe she took as much joy out of our wedding as we did.
We couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
October wedding
We did not feel comfortable writing our own vows but she had us fill out a questionnaire and incorporated personal touches to her reading.
I would highly recommend working with her.
