George and Lurie Moffa wedding November 15,2024

George and I wanted a non-denominational yet traditional wedding ceremony that wasn’t overbearing or gimmicky. We needed a professional with presence to help lead us in a ceremony that we were both a bit nervous about. As a couple we are not ones for public proclamations, and now we were faced with putting a wedding ceremony together!

We knew we didn’t want to do personal vows, yet we wanted a ceremony that was meaningful and represented us as a couple. During our introductory call with Tanya Pushkine, she immediately understood our goals and recognized our vision. Tanya not only shared invaluable feedback based on her experiences, she provided a varied collection of readings and ideas for the ceremony as well. She acted as a counselor and coach where needed. Working with Tanya was one of the most organized and efficient experiences I’ve had with a master of ceremonies. Her response time with any of our questions was immediate and detailed. She inspired us to find a reading that was truly unique and meaningful to us as a couple.

The day of the wedding Tanya was a consummate professional; we felt completely safe in her hands. Tanya thought about everything: where should the bride and groom stand? Will I be comfortable walking down the aisle in my massive dress? She even helped guide my father, who is hard of hearing, to his seat to watch the ceremony - things that were important to us though not necessarily what I'd expect to be part of her role. Tanya's presentation was professional, warm and inviting. I was so nervous about the actual ceremony, and Tanya helped make it one of my favorite parts of our wedding. I’m eternally grateful Tanya's presence, and her participation in our wedding day.

Tanya is an amazing person

Tanya was everything my now Wife and I had hoped for in an officiant. She helped both of us talk through the process as a couple, and as individuals, which made us both at ease.

Tanya's sweet and strong demeanor always was appreciated, and the day of was absolutely perfect.

She and her assistant Queenie were always on top of things, but never over the top. Even more so, Tanya went above and beyond in so many other ways that I wish I could give her 10 stars.

Great experience with Tanya

Tanya was great to work with - really responsive and very energetic. She offered great advice regarding structure and edits - especially with regards to officiating. Would definitely recommend her to those looking to alleviate some workload and stress.
