Beautiful ceremony

Everything was perfect, and well written. She hit every point we wanted her to, and made my husband and I feel very comfortable and calm during the ceremony. There was a slight issue with the microphone during the ceremony, so I would encourage an additional sound check prior to the ceremony, but other than that, everything was great.

Wonderful Wedding Officiant on the Eastern Shore

My husband and I are glad that we chose Renee of XOXO Ceremonies, LLC to be the officiant for our wedding.

We had no idea how to create the ceremony that we wanted. Renee met with us at a convenient location with lots of options for us to consider and choose from. She was easy to talk to and made us feel at ease.

We very pleased with the services she provided and would recommend her to anyone.

XOXO Ceremonies is the BEST!

Renée is seriously the best!! If you are looking for a wedding officiant, look no further! She is so sweet and kind and extremely helpful throughout the ceremony planning process. We had one meeting with her, but during our ceremony it was as if she had known us forever. She captured the essence of our relationship and put it beautifully into words. We had many comments from our guests about how wonderful the ceremony was. She even was so sweet in helping to calm our nerves on the wedding day. Having Renée as our officiant was one of the best decisions we made!

Amazing!!!!

Renee was so good- in preparation and in delivery of our ceremony. She spent time with us to make our ceremony perfect; she is thoughtful in her questions and got to know us to help customize our ceremony. Her warmth and sweet personality made her the perfect person for our wedding! Renee added way more to our wedding than I could have expected in an officiant.

CHOOSING RENEE @ XOXO CEREMONIES TO OFFICIATE OUR WEDDING WAS BY FAR THE BEST DECISION EVER!!! SHE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND IN EVERY WAY AND EVEN DEALT WITH A FEW SURPRISES THAT CAME UP LAST SECOND WITH SUCH EASE & PATIENCE. MOST IMPORTANTLY, SHE KEPT MY FIANCE CALM WHILE ANXIOUSLY WAITING FOR THE LATE PHOTOGRAPHERS & HELPED TO IRON OUT A COUPLE LAST SECOND DETAILS THAT WERE OVERLOOKED ON MY PART. SHE CREATED, YES, CREATED A CEREMONY THAT WAS SPECIFIC TO US & REFLECTED OUR RELATIONSHIP IN THE MOST TRUE & BEAUTIFUL WAY. SHE DOESN'T USE A SCRIPT BECAUSE SHE BELIEVES THAT EVERY COUPLE IS DIFFERENT AND THE WEDDING CEREMONY SHOULD REFLECT THAT. I HAVE RECEIVED SO MANY COMPLIMENTS FROM GUESTS REGARDING HOW MUCH THEY LOVED THE CEREMONY STYLE, WORDING. AND JUST THE OVERALL "FEEL" OF THE WEDDING. WE MET AND IMMEDIATELY WERE TREATED LIKE BEST FRIENDS, AND I DEFINITELY FEEL THAT US FINDING HER FOR OUR WEDDING WAS MEANT TO BE.. HER LOVE FOR WHAT SHE DOES REALLY SHOWS IN HER WORK! RENEE IS TRULY EXCEPTIONAL AND HAVING HER AS YOUR OFFICIANT WILL TAKE YOUR WEDDING FROM AN EVENT, TO AN EXPERIENCE!! SHE IS PURELY & UTTERLY AMAZING!! WE WILL BE FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR THE GIFT THAT RENEE HAS GIVEN US BY OFFICIATING OUR WEDDING.

Renee of XOXO Ceremonies, LLC was the GREATEST choice we could have ever made when selecting an officiant for our wedding.

She was so accommodating when meeting my husband and I for the consultation/meeting to draft the ceremony. She came closer to our area and was fully prepared with different verbiage options, as well as different layouts, styles, formalities, etc.

My husband and I had no idea how many choices we would have when drafting the perfect ceremony, but Renee easily guided us through the process and in the end, we had the most memorable personalized ceremony.

Our ceremony was literally the greatest moment of our lives thus far and we owe Renee our deepest gratitude for making it happen!

Renee, thank you so much for your expertise, your passion and your delivery. CJ and I will forever be grateful for your huge part in our big day and we will definitely recommend you to anyone who asks!

I would highly recommend Renee! My now husband and I had both been married before and she knew exactly how to gauge the ceremony. She made us feel very comfortable and the ceremony was absolutely spot on, we even included the children in the ceremony. We wrote our own vows that we discussed individually with Renee and kept them a secret from each other. There wasn’t a dry eye at the ceremony! She helped make our day perfect! Thank you!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
