Such a sweet ceremony

Karen was amazing and dedicated to making sure our ceremony was what we wanted it to be. Everyone was raving about how great she was and how good of a job she did. She has options for many different styles of ceremonies to best fit your relationship!

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!
