Stress Free!!

Rev Val made our wedding special! She took the stress out of finding the perfect officiant. Her ceremony was intimate and meaningful, exactly what we wanted out of our wedding! She prepped all the paperwork prior to the wedding, so we can enjoy our guests at the wedding and only sign our marriage certificate! I will highly recommend Rev Val for anyone looking to get married!!!

Val was so helpful with advice on the ceremony and taking care of all of our paperwork for us. She was so flexible and really made the wedding how we wanted. Definitely recommend if you are anywhere in central Washington.

If you want a beautiful ceremony, Rev Val is the way to go!

Reverend Val worked with my husband and I to create a short, sweet, and beautiful ceremony. We wanted something that wouldn't require a ton of back and forth, and our goal was to have the whole thing done in around 5 minutes. She helped us get to these goals beautifully and I cried the whole way through. She gave utmost care and detail to things we hadn't even thought of (for example, making sure we were okay with what she was wearing), and responded to all questions promptly and completely! Most importantly, she took care of all the paperwork promptly so all of our post-wedding document updates went quickly and easily. Thank you Rev Val for the wonderful experience that we'll never forget!

There were so many options and it can be hard to tell if you're getting the best one, but after meeting Val I knew we picked the right one for us.

Val is very flexible to meet our date and time, she met us prior to the ceremony to go through all the details to make sure we understand the process and get everything prepared. She is very friendly and considerate. Thank you!

Big wedding or small - I think we all want the same thing when we hire an officiant. We want someone who can speak with wisdom, cheer, and conviction. Someone who makes the ceremony and legal process of getting married feel like you are getting guided and supported by a close friend rather then just a hired stranger.

That is exactly what Valerie is-she is friend not stranger.

We had a small ceremony (an elopement with only 25 guests), so given that the vendor ratio was close to what the guest ratio was - we were definitely choosy about who to hire. We both wanted the day to feel like we were surrounded by friends...not just hired personnel. Valerie contacted us several times via phone prior to the ceremony to help us coordinate the ceremony and the various pieces of paperwork. This was all considered to be part of their lowest-cost elopement package, and it was very helpful. Furthermore, by the time we met face-to-face for the first time it really felt like we already knew them very well!

Valerie did a beautiful job speaking at the ceremony and I know we will have great memories of it for many days to come. She was a large part of what made the day so great, and I am grateful for that.

We highly recommend her, and hope you have a beautiful day as well!
