Incredible Ceremony with Everything We Dreamed Of

Rachel was amazing. She sent us an incredibly detailed questionnaire to ensure we had everything we wanted and things we never even thought of. After we filled it all out, she allowed us to go through the ceremony with her, adjusting wording, putting in extra personal anecdotes, and a little joke here and there. Our ceremony ended up being incredibly personal, while keeping within the time limits we were hoping for. We laughed, we cried, we felt like we could be in that moment with each other. Having an officiant who was so prepared with every last detail made a world of difference. Since our wedding I have been to three others... none have compared to the level of personalization and heart that went into our ceremony!

Makes ceremony planning easy!

Rachael is so friendly and likable! She gave us a great template to customize our ceremony that made it very simple. We wanted a non religious, short and sweet ceremony and that’s what we got!

Working with Rachel was Great!

While Rachel won us over during our initial Zoom meeting with her, we knew we made the best decision for our officiant when our coordinator, who works with SO many officiants, told us how excited she was we picked Rachel and that she wished she'd officiate all the weddings the coordinator worked on.

From the get to know you call through the entire process my husband and I were really impressed by Rachel's attention to detail and thoughfulness towards all the aspects of the wedding day, not just the specifics related to performing the ceremony.

She checked in with the kids in the wedding party to make sure everyone went to the bathroom before the ceremony. She pointed out to them where their "grown ups" would be sitting in case they needed them. She even brought stakes to make sure our arch was secrure (the florist had taken care of it, but still it was such a thoughtful touch!).

In terms of the ceremony itself, we really appreciate how she included us in writing it and gave us so many options and so much flexibility, pieceing together components from different options to truly make it a unique and customized ceremony. The small books she created for us to read our vows to each other were also a great touch and a nice memento we're happy to have.

While Rachel's fees were higher than some of the other officiants we considered, the value she provided was well worth it and we were so glad we opted to have her officiate our wedding.

our perfect ceremony

We worked with Rachel for our wedding this August. She was absolutely amazing! She is kind and friendly and amazing to work with! We ended up rescheduling last year due to covid. She worked with us to reschedule and our wedding and was always available. She made our ceremony absolutely perfect for us! She met with us multiple times and we filled out several documents and questionnaires to ensure that our ceremony was personalized and absolutely perfect!

Rachel helped us create a perfect ceremony!

We originally planned to have a large Catholic ceremony for our wedding but had to pivot our plans due to COVID-19. After deciding on an intimate outdoor wedding, we were a bit lost in thinking about what our ceremony would look like until we found Rachel. We were are so glad that we did because she truly helped us create the perfect ceremony that we will cherish forever.

Rachel is wonderful!

We had the most amazing experience using Rachel as our officiant. We ended up having a micro wedding due to covid with just family and a couple very close friends. We thought for a long time we would have a family member marry us, but as the day got closer we came to realize that we didn’t want to put that on one of our very few guests’ shoulders. We found Rachel and never looked back! She does a fantastic job of creating the ceremony with you and making it feel so personalized. The day of the wedding she was a calming and professional presence in the midst of all the wedding chaos! Our ceremony was perfect and so reflective of who we are as a couple. Our friends and family were raving about it too! We are so very glad we made the decision to work with Rachel!

Class from beginning to end

My wife and I originally had three officiants picked out to interview but we never made it past Rachel. From our first meeting Rachel exuded not only excitement at our wedding but also care for what we wanted in a ceremony. After the ceremony, many of our guests told us how much they enjoyed the ceremony and, as the groom, Rachel made me feel about as comfortable as one can be.

Highly Professional, Talented, Easy to work with & dedicated

I got married in November 2019 and planned my own 85pp wedding.
I was under a lot of stress and worried I wouldn't find an Officiant that could uniquely cater to my finance and I personality. I was wrong! Rachael is what you call "a match made in heaven" (for vendor hunting!) She and I connected during our phone interview immediately. I knew right away my husband would agree she is the perfect fit for us! We were VERY lucky she was available for our date! She has the high-level experience, positive personalty and fair pricing we were looking for! Working with Rachael was a breeze! She executed a seamless ceremony service, provided me endless tissues (ahah) and was so friendly to everyone she interacted with. The guests won't stop talking about her because she left us with an everlasting impression and perfect wedding day! We highly recommend her for your day! She will deliver top-notch professionalism, a beautiful service and dedication you are looking for!

Amazing Officiant!

Rachel was so great and easy to work with! Her custom questions that she asked both Ryan and I before the wedding made our ceremony more personable and intimate! Thank you Rachel for officiating our ceremony!
