Just like having a friend as your officiant!
Thank you, Karen, for being our officiant! Karen is so sweet and truly gets to know her couples so she can share their story during the ceremony. By the day of our wedding, it really was just like having a friend officiate! We really enjoyed working with her!

Karen is one of the most gracious & endearing people we've met. Having her to officiate our gay wedding, was more than we could have asked for. She made our day so special & personal, we would highly recommend you hire her to officiate your union or wedding.

Karen was great. She met with us twice before the wedding so she could write our story for the ceremony. She had so many helpful ideas about the process and really eased our minds about how it would all come together. We were happy to have her as our officiant and our dinner guest. we both would recommend her for your special day!!

When I reached out to Karen my husband and I were on a major time crunch. She made everything very easy and when we met her there was an instant connection. On the day of our wedding I was more than pleased with the ceremony because Karen had put together a beautiful ceremony. All of my guests were warmed and welcomed before I walked down the aisle and she navigated both my husband and myself through it with ease. I would and will highly recommend Karen to anyone that is going to get married or celebrate other special sacraments in their lives. Thanks Karen!!! You're the best!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Karen. She is a top notch professional who met with us and took the time to get to know us. I knew from the minute we started talking to her that she was the one for us and I was right! She did an amazing job and wrote such beautiful vows for us that it brought me to tears. She was responsive, attentive, was prompt and did a fabulous job! Everyone loved her and I would highly recommend her not only as a professional, but as a wonderful person. I am so happy she was a part of our special day!
