Very intimate and private

Our goal was to have a very private ceremony and Winnie and Paul made sure it was our day. Winnie even gave me her jacket to wear as the breeze was a little chilly and i was not prepared for that. Winnie went above and beyond to make sure our license made it to us so I could update all my information. I am so grateful for her. Thank you Winnie and Paul for making our day so special.

The BEST Wedding Officiant ❤️

There are truly not enough words to express how grateful we are for Winnie. She didn’t just officiate our wedding, she became such a meaningful part of one of the most important and beautiful days of our lives.

From the very beginning, Winnie was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and intentional. She has this special aura about her that immediately puts you at ease. There is something so warm, calming, and genuine about her presence, and she brings such a beautiful energy into every moment she is part of.

She took the time to make our ceremony feel personal and meaningful, and somehow made a moment we already knew would be special feel even more magical than we could have imagined. Standing there, surrounded by the people we love, with Winnie guiding us through one of the biggest moments of our lives, is something we will never forget.

We feel so lucky that she was the person who married us. Her kindness, thoughtfulness, and beautiful spirit made such an impact on our day and on us personally. Winnie is truly one of those rare people who leaves you feeling like you’ve known her forever.

Thank you, Winnie, for making our wedding day so incredibly special. We will always cherish the role you played in our love story. ❤️

Kindest Officiant Ever!

Winnie was the absolute best officiant we could've asked for. From our first meeting, it felt like we were talking to another family member. The whole time spent with her discussing our wedding, what we were looking for in a ceremony, what we loved about each other, everything felt so genuine— not transactional. Winnie made sure to follow requests we had, such as announcing unplugged ceremony, and stepping to the side for our first kiss as a married couple. She even went above and beyond and ran our rehearsal to be sure everything went smoothly on our wedding day. Everyone felt that the ceremony was beautifully written and one of a kind, that fit my new husband and I perfectly. We are so thankful Winnie was apart of our special day, and if we were to do it all over again— we'd choose her in a heartbeat. Thank you, Winnie, for everything!

Wonderful, Winnie!!!

Winnie has been the most understanding and compassionate woman. Initially, we made plans for her to officiate my wedding 21 June, but due to my mother suddenly getting sick, my now husband and I wanted to give my mom what she’s always dreamed of, which was to see me walking down the aisle before she passed. Winnie was able to make that happen with only three days notice . She was the most understanding and supportive woman, not only to me and my husband, but also to my mother and family. Not only did she take her time to marry my husband and I twice, but she also made sure to include a very special heart filled message into our wedding ceremony about my mother. She brought tears to all of our eyes and joys to our hearts. I would recommend Winnie to anyone getting married in the Florida area. Not only did she officiate our wedding but also became a great friend.

Absolutely Phenomenal!

Winnie officiated my husband and I’s wedding and while many factors of wedding planning can lead to stress, from day one she was there to truly listen and get a good understanding of who we are and our relationship. Even sent us a copy of the ceremony script she crafted! She is truly a kind soul and we highly recommend.

Very kind, insightful and helpful

Winnie was so helpful and flexible, which helped us a lot due to some timing issues. One of her strongest attributes was her insightful comments during the brief ceremony, her comments about us and our relationship were right on. Thanks Winnie, you were excellent.
