Absolutely Beautiful and Personal Wedding Ceremony

I am so happy that we chose Reverend Linda to be the person to officially marry my husband and I. We live in Houston, but were planning to get married in Austin, so we looked online to find ideas for officiants. We came across Rev. Linda and had a phone call with her to see if she would be a good fit. I knew immediately that she was the person we wanted to marry us. She has such a warm and loving demeanor, and I could just tell that she loves being a part of people’s most precious day. She really put in effort to get to know us as a couple and to understand what we were looking for in our wedding ceremony. She wrote an absolutely beautiful ceremony for us and was open to any and all feedback we had in how to tweak it to make it just right for us. We chose to write our own vows, but Rev. Linda offered to review them for us to make sure we were on the same page with tone, length, etc. The ceremony turned out absolutely perfect! It was a perfect mix of serious, funny, romantic, and emotional. Rev. Linda was awesome at controlling the flow of the ceremony and “ad libbing” when needed if anything unexpected popped up (like the lapel mic not working, and her quickly making eye contact with the DJ to switch to the handheld mic). She was truly a professional and was able to execute the ceremony without missing a beat. Throughout the night we had guests coming up to compliment us on how it was one of the most personal and beautiful wedding ceremonies they had ever been to. I am so happy that we chose Rev. Linda to be a part of our wedding day and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a beautiful and personalized wedding ceremony.

Linda is the best!

Linda was beyond anything we could ask for in an officiant. She was immediately so comfortable and friendly with us when we first met her for coffee so she could get to know us. She was quick and efficient with writing our ceremony script and I loved that we could read it first and give feedback and edits. When the pandemic hit, she was flexible and supportive. Then, when we finally were able to hold the wedding, she was a calming and competent presence. We loved her, our wedding party loved her, the families loved her. I truly cannot say enough good things about her and highly recommend that any couple in the greater Austin area hire her for their wedding.
