As an out-of-town couple looking for a Colorado officiant, we had no clue where to start. We started with a Google search and started going through reviews hoping to find someone that felt right for us. Finding an officiant - the person responsible for the most important part of your wedding day (the actual marriage!) - based on reviews is daunting. But, we were optimistic about Candance from both reviews and her website, so we took a leap of faith and reached out. And we are eternally grateful that we did. Candance was the highlight of our ceremony and made our wedding feel personal and special to us as a couple!

Ahead of the wedding, Candace was responsive and incredible to work with. She dedicated multiple Zoom sessions to getting to know us as a couple and listened to what we wanted for our wedding ceremony. She allowed us to collaborate with her in the writing process and ensured that our wedding ceremony felt personal to us.  As I come from a UCC background and my husband comes from a Catholic background, we were in search of guidance on how best to honor both faith backgrounds, while staying true to ourselves. Candance listened to both of our desires with respect to incorporating faith and was able to thread the needle perfectly. Candace has a wealth of knowledge, but also enjoys and is eager to research new rituals/ceremonies to fit any couple.

We had a few unique ceremony requests, including one which incorporated a special moment between us and our step-daughter/daughter, as well as a unity ceremony (which was an updated twist on the wine box). Candance not only welcomed our ideas, but she helped put them on paper and make them come to life beyond what we could've imagined on our own. Her creativity and ability to capture the couple in her writing makes her one of a kind.

Candace prepared and delivered a ceremony that perfectly captured our love and relationship as if she had known us for years. She always writes a few special words for her couples that she leaves a surprise, and we were touched on our wedding day to hear those for the first time. She provided us with the ceremony script afterwards so we could keep it forever.

Additionally, Candance remains calm under wedding day pressure. We not only had to switch ceremony locations last minute (due to rain in the forecast), but we also inadvertently left our wedding license in our hotel room. She handled the location change with aplomb, and met us at our resort to finish the wedding license without us even having to ask.

And, Candace is just a super cool person! She's someone that puts others at ease and would be fun to grab a beer with. She is relatable, professional, and one of a kind.

All in all, we couldn't imagine using anyone else other than Candace as our wedding officiant, and we are so glad we did. You should to! No matter your background, Candace puts her couples first and creates a ceremony that reflects their love. No cookie cutter "I do's" with Candace as your officiant.

Thanks, Candace, for all you do! We are so lucky to have found you and hope this review connects other couples like us to you. 

Candace was nothing short of amazing in helping with our wedding ceremony. We didn't want to go the formal, traditional route and she had tons of ideas that helped us clarify what we wanted. We felt absolutely at home with her from the moment we met over zoom, and even more so when we met for coffee. I cant recommend her enough!

Oh my goodness what an amazing human! She was so flexible day of dealing with my disability (ended up starting our ceremony 30ish minutes late). She played with our kitten while we finished getting ready and took us through the most perfect wedding ceremony! We feel so so fortunate to have found a human with love for the Earth like ours and one that made us feel like this day was truly ours. She helped us get the perfect paw print from our pup witness and turned in our certificate for us. We truly would get married again so she could officiate again! It was an honor to have her as a part of our day! 100/10 recommend!
