Loved our ceremony!

We absolutely loved our ceremony with Bonnie! She took the time to get to know me and my husband which helped make our ceremony touching and meaningful. Our family and friends complimented on how beautiful the ceremony was. Bonnie also provided guidance and helped us with our marriage license making everything's easy. We appreciated how timely and thoroughly she communicated with us. Nothing but positive feedback! She truly made our ceremony sweet and special.

5 Stars! Everyone Thought She Was Family!

Bonnie officiated our May 2025 wedding and she was absolutely PERFECT. She was such a treat to work with. Her positive energy is so infectious. My biggest feel was having it feel impersonal because we didn’t pick someone we knew – but people ended up thinking she was our relative because of how personal her delivery was. You could feel her excitement for us from the very first meeting and through the vows. Bonnie made it so easy to write out vows – she even compared them for us to make sure they matched in tone and length so that they could remain private from one another until the big day. The vows she wrote for us were really, truly tailored perfectly to us as a couple and helped lend to the overflowing romance of the day. AND she DJ’d our cocktail hour! She did an awesome job and we are so grateful to Bonnie. 10/10 recommend working with her!

Amazing and Perfect Ceremony

Bonnie was so great to work with from start to finish. She was recommended by our planner and she was a true joy. She helped crafted the perfect ceremony for me and my partner and was so great at handling everything after. She thought of every detail including having extra tissues when we we got teary eyed during the ceremony. We would highly recommend anyone to work with Bonnie to have your dream ceremony

Bonnie Is Amazing!

My wife and I had the privilege of having Bonnie as our officiant for our wedding this past September. We cannot express enough how incredible Bonnie was to work with. From the first conversation we had with her, you could tell she genuinely cared about the connection she made with us. She was extremely responsive to all of our emails, texts, and calls and always made us feel like a priority. She truly made our special day possible. Almost everyone we spoke to at the wedding had nice things to say about the beautiful ceremony Bonnie wrote for us. It was truly a privilege to meet and work with Bonnie, we cannot recommend her enough to prospective couples!

Bonnie or Bust!

I am writing this review as the wedding planner for my two friends, officiated by Bonnie.

The weekend was filled with love and joy, in part because of Bonnie who played such an important role and we couldn't have found a better officiant!

From our very first conversation with her (about a year ago), through the pause in planning (due to personal reasons) and all the way to the big day, Bonnie showed such professionalism, warmth and kindness. She guided us with ease and her calming and inviting presence helped us, most especially the grooms, feel confident and supported throughout the process. Bonnie made the ceremony seamless and we are so grateful for the care she put into crafting and leading the ceremony.

Highly recommend Bonnie for her services.. and we hear she's a DJ too so you get the best of both worlds, a wedding planner and groom/bride's dream come true!

Loved having Bonnie as our officiant!

We got married at the Santa Barbara Courthouse Mural Room. Bonnie was absolutely incredible as our officiant. She took the time prior to our wedding day to get to know us and to gather what’s needed from our end. We had quite a few guests say they loved the ceremony.

A few minutes prior to our ceremony a group of roughly fifty people, led by a guide, barged in and took over the room. Bonnie on her own accord, went over and asked the guide how long they will take and kept a sharp eye on them. This was something not expected of her but she did it simply to help us out.

Would 100% recommend Bonnie as an officiant!

Bonnie is amazing!

We are so happy with Bonnie's services! We got so many compliments from our guests about our ceremony. Bonnie got to know us and our story, wrote us a ceremony draft, and asked us what we would like to add/adjust from there. The end result was a beautiful, balanced ceremony. She was very responsive and answered all of our questions when we had them. We're very happy we chose her and highly recommend her!
