    More than an officiant, amazing vendor!

    No words to describe Christine. She is professional, generous, caring, and prompt. Very detail orientated and such a genuine human being. She truly cares from start to finish. She helped us coordinate our ceremony, and gathered our guests altogether. She made sure I was well taken care of and comfortable before my walk down the aisle as well as my husband. Thank you Christine for being so amazing on the best day of our lives! I would hire you a million times again I wouldn’t want any other officiant. She not only is an officiant but she helps out of her heart with what she can to make sure you as the bride and groom are ok. So blessed to have gotten the chance to work with her!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Christine was the absolute best and helped us feel completely at ease the entire planning process! She is a true professional and knows exactly how to officiate a wedding while being completely flexible to our suggestions and requests for the ceremony. She was super responsive and helpful in creating the perfect format for our wedding. She guided the rehearsal with such ease, our entire wedding party could not stop complimenting her and our coordinator even said she was the best officiant she's seen! We felt like we had known her for our entire lives! Christine was simply the best we could've ever asked for!

    Highly recommend: positive and calming presence, kind soul, and timely communication

    Reverend Christine was amazing to work with! My husband and I would 100% recommend Reverend Christine-- she was amazing every step of the way.
    She was early to our rehearsal the day before and had such a serene, positive, and competent demeanor. And she was so fabulous the day of the wedding! It really felt like Reverend Christine was a source of inspiration and a kindred spirit/spiritual guide (my husband and I aren't religious and so we also appreciated how open and welcoming Reverend Christine is) during the ceremony, and her steadying presence was perfect when I felt some nerves during the ceremony. She also rocked the small details: for example, she kept our vow books on her and handed them to us individually when we were reading our vows to each other, which was super helpful.
    She was also great in the planning stages as well. When we were looking to book an officiant, she was prompt with communication and was lovely to talk to on the phone. After we booked her, she immediately sent some lovely sample scripts and continued to be really timely in communication.

    Delightful!

    Rev. Christine is truly a kind soul. She was an absolute delight to work with and very easygoing. Throughout the entire process she was very calm, patient, and reassuring. On the matter of our ceremony, she had a couple of different styles to choose from and was readily open to accommodations. In addition to our vows, she gave us the idea of incorporating a Wine Box Ceremony, which was perfect since we got married at a vineyard! We are so grateful for this elegant touch as it provided an extra unique element to our wedding while giving our marriage a lovely tradition to honor for many years to come. It’s also worth mentioning she greeted many of our guests at arrival on the day of our wedding and helped direct them to the ceremony site, so much so that a few of them thought she was the coordinator! We truly feel blessed and lucky to have found such an outstanding officiant; she was undeniably a key component to making our wedding day all the more special.

    Rev. Christine is so wonderful and friendly! I loved the different ceremony options provided and my partner and I had a nice time going through them together and choosing what we liked best. Rev. Christine was easy to communicate with and was very punctual on the wedding day. I would definitely recommend her to officiate your wedding, she was a pleasure to work with!

    Perfect ceremony

    I am so happy we had Rev. Christine perform our ceremony. I love her sweet nature, how involved she was in making sure we plan and put together the right ceremony. She also made sure everything is prepped and ready. Her attention to details is great! I remember her checking on the rings to make sure it was tied to the pillow properly so there wouldn't be any issues at the ceremony.

    We highly recommend Rev. Christine.

    Rev. Christine was awesome!

    Rev. Christine was awesome! The first time we met with her we knew we picked the right person to marry us! She was very responsive and organized. Anytime we had to make changes to our wedding date due to covid or make changes to the wording in the ceremony she was very flexible and patient with us. We requested that she be there for our rehearsal to help us run through the ceremony and she showed up on time and told everyone where they needed to be and what they needed to do. When the wedding day came everyone in our wedding party felt comfortable and confident walking down the aisle and knew exactly what they were suppose to do. On top of her professionalism she was also a very kind, sweet person and very easy to talk to. Would highly recommend her if you are searching for a wedding officiant!

    The Pastor was very kind and punctual. I liked the fact that she was very organized and very responsive to my emails during a pandemic.

    Reverend Christine was great

    Reverend Christine was amazing, she took the time to get to know us and was so easy to talk to that we even did a mini pre marriage counseling session with her and it was prob one of the best things we could have done pre wedding. She also came in and spoke to me before the ceremony to make sure I was cool, calm and collected. She is truly such a sweetheart.

    Wedding 9/26

    Rev Christine was perfectly on time, and she did a great job speaking with me and my husband separately so that we didn’t see each other until the ceremony. The ceremony she wrote was exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommend!

    Professional, Personable and Communicative

    Rev. Christine was fabulous! She was easy to work with, very responsive and flexible. Our rehearsal date and time changed from what we originally scheduled and she was able to make it without issue. I loved that my fiancé and I could pick what passages and content would be in our ceremony but we didn't have to write it. Rev. Christine had a lot of options for the pieces of the ceremony. We had many compliments on our ceremony both from our in person attendees and our Zoom attendees.

    Perfect Day (Sept13)

    We are were so happy that Rev Christine officiated our wedding! We met with her once in person (more than a year ago) to chat about our background and to discuss our wedding ceremony vision. She is incredibly professional and organized and easy to work with! During rehearsal she kept the bridal party on task. Our wedding ceremony was beautiful, and we would absolutely recommend her to a friend!

    Excellent!

    Reverend Christine was an excellent officiant. We are happy we chose her for our ceremony. We contacted her through WeddingWire, and she quickly responded to our questions regarding her services. She even sent a sample ceremony outline for us to read through. Immediately, we knew we had found the right officiant because of the detailed and organized information provided. During our first meeting, we discussed our general preferences for our ceremony, and with Rev. Christine’s guidance, we refined the order of events to make it exactly what we envisioned for our day. Between our first meeting and the wedding day, which was almost eight months, we always felt we could contact her easily and discuss any questions or updates for our day.
    Originally our wedding was scheduled for May, but due to Covid-19, things had to be postponed until June, and our larger wedding had to be changed to a small intimate ceremony. Rev. Christine contacted us to ask how things were going and make sure we were okay. She provided availability for us to choose a new date for our ceremony. On the day of our ceremony, everything went beautifully, and we felt at ease because we knew what to expect during the ceremony since we had discussed it well beforehand. Both our families mentioned how friendly and kind Rev. Christine was and that they liked her very much. We were delighted, and we would recommend her to any couple.

    Excelent experience!

    I hired Christine for my wedding about a month out, so I was very greatful she was available on such short notice. Also during the midst of COVID-19, she was still willing to do the ceremony for us (while social distancing of course). She actually met us at a starbucks to officially marry us just incase things got crazy! She provided me with the many different options for the speech she would give and allowed me to change anything I wanted which was really nice!

    Best vendor to work with!

    Rev. Christine was one of the best vendors we had the pleasure of working with. She was very responsive, experienced and knowledgeable. She had plenty of suggestions for our ceremony, but was very open in allowing us to customize it to the way we wanted. We ended up interviewing 3 different officiants, but were glad we ended up choosing Christine as we just felt most comfortable with her. I would highly recommend her for your wedding...you won't be disappointed!!
