Wonderful officiant

Reverend Linda was wonderful during our wedding planning, she sent us several different samples for our ceremony and let us piecemeal our perfect ceremony, and we had pretty free range over edits. She was very professional during the ceremony, and even left us a copy of our ceremony readings to keep with our vows.

Ten Stars!

I 10/10 recommend hiring Reverend Linda Ketchum for your wedding day! My wife and I are a same-sex couple and Reverend Linda was perfect! She helped craft the most incredible wedding ceremony for the two of us that had excellent passages about marriage from various sources that I had never heard of, including Native American and African-American traditions. Everyone remarked about how beautiful our ceremony was and told us how they had never been to a more loving wedding. It was a ceremony to be remembered. To top it all off, she gave us a commemorative copy of our wedding ceremony that we will treasure for years to come. She was flexible with editing our ceremony and was knowledgeable about weddings in general. She helped remind us when to apply for a wedding license with the state and what documents we would need. She was timely with mailing out our wedding certificate and even gave us an image of our marriage certificate to use for any perks we needed to access on our honeymoon. I thought that was an excellent touch! She has literally thought of everything. Reverend Linda's per-marital counseling was top-notch and helped us build a foundation of trust and understanding in our relationship. Book her now! You will be glad you did it!

The Perfect Officiant!!

Reverend Linda was the officiant at my wedding with my wife. We chose her because of her connection with our spiritual center. After hearing her speak several times at our center and taking her forgiveness workshop, we noticed her kind heart and genuine passion for strengthening relationship with oneself and others. This is a very important factor in an officiant. We elected to choose the larger package she offered with the pre or post-marriage counseling. The advice she gave us during our pre-marital counseling was very beneficial and made us think about how we could grow as a couple before the wedding. In addition to this, her guidance during the entire process was so helpful. You can tell she has worked with many couples and knows what questions to ask and what advice to give. She gave us the appropriate timeline on when to apply for a marriage license, provided sample ceremonies and readings, and helped the entire wedding party figure out their places on the night of the wedding rehearsal. The day of the wedding was absolutely perfect and she was very prepared with the printed out ceremony, readings, and our vows as backup in case we forgot to bring them. She also blessed our food at the reception. We truly could not have asked for a better officiant. As a same-sex couple, we wanted to make sure our officiant was completely supportive of us. Reverend Linda checked all our boxes and exceeded our expectations. For all future couples looking to book Reverend Linda, I hope that she has availability on your special day and that you are able to do the pre-marital counseling.

Super perfect

Rev Linda was the best, not only did she perform our ceremony with a short notice, she fit us in her already busy schedule to accommodate our date. The ceremony she performed was perfectly sweet for my husband and I, she also allowed us to come to her. I would highly recommend her and her services.

Fantastic!

We had to completely adjust our original wedding plans due to Covid. I felt lost on what to do given the big changes. Luckily, we were able to find Rev. Linda. She responded quickly via text and email, even up to the date of our wedding. She made suggestions for locations nearby and made our event special, simple, and relaxed. We look forward to having her come back for our anniversary wedding with the original venue.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
