Highly Recommend Julie Draper!

I highly recommend Julie Draper as your officiant. During our first conversation, Julie wanted to know all about us and what we envisioned for our elopement. She had lots of great ideas and suggestions for other vendors. Julie was easy to communicate with and she helped put us all at ease on our elopement day. She has a phenomenal guide to look through so you can customize your ceremony. It made the day even more special. Do not hesitate to book Julie!

Julie is Amazing!

Our wedding would not have gone as smoothly as it did without Julie being our officiant. From our first contact with her she was always incredibly responsive, provided detailed answers, and most importantly always made us feel heard. Julie consistently touched based with us, and ensured that our ceremony vision was perfectly executed. We can not say enough positive things about her, and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an officiant!
