    Amazing ❤️

    Reverend Brown is overall FABULOUS! She has taken the time and has had the most patience I have ever seen. My husband and I had to change our plans a few times and with the help and guidance from Takeisha, we were able to make everything perfect. 110% recommend their services ❤️

    Wonderful ceremony

    Takeisha is wonderful. She was responsive, helpful and allowed us to design a ceremony that was exactly what my husband and I wanted. We got many compliments.

    A Perfect Touch!

    Reverend Brown was the Officiant for our wedding. She added the most perfect and special touch to our ceremony. Reverend Brown is attentive, reliable, and responsive. She provided some terrific recommendations - our Handfasting ceremony is still being complimented to this day. She is a winner!

    Great Pre-Marital Counseling Sessions!

    Highly recommend Takeisha for Pre-Marital Counseling services and can’t wait to have her as our officiant on our wedding day!

    **Update**
    Takeisha was an amazing officiant! She made our ceremony so memorable by incorporating a ritual with specific wording that knew we wanted to on include. She's sweet, super responsive and offers the ability to flex in order make your day personal. Again, highly recommend!

    Lady Brown made our ceremony absolutely perfect! We received SO many comments on how beautiful our ceremony was – the words were meaningful, and sincere…in short it was everything we could have wished for and more!

    Amazing! Takeisha is wise well beyond her years. A true gem!

    Takeisha helped make our wedding ceremony exceptional. She got to know us and tailored our ceremony to exactly what we wanted. She can go super religious to just a beautiful ceremony. She travels too! Be sure to at least have a zoom interview with her to assess if she is right for you (she probably is). Thanks Takeisha! You are a gem and we appreciate you!

    So grateful for Solid Foundation!

    Lady Brown was incredible, and it was truly an honor to be able to have her alongside us on our wedding day. She was very interested in ensuring our wedding was our own and made the ceremony feel deeply personal. She absolutely went the extra mile for us (literally) and all the wedding guests loved her. Thank you thank you thank you!

    Takeisha is a 10/10 MUST HAVE for your big day!

    We rave about Tameika to our friends and family to this day! She not only brought such a sense of calm and peace to our rehearsal and nuptials, but she took the time to get to know us and about families which made her standing up there with us so much more special. Her words also brought the whole place to tears so if that is any indication, I highly recommend working with Takeisha to make your wedding day extra special.

    Our Day was Excellent!

    Takeisha, excellent choice! We are truly blessed to have had a wonderful ceremony that was Officiated by Takeisha! Our ceremony was everything and more of what we asked for! Takeisha continue to bless couples joining in marriage. May God continue to bless you, your ministry and every couple that you join in marriage!

    An Awesome Service From An Awesome Person

    Rev. Brown is awesome! She assisted and counseled my now husband and I through the entire pre-marital counseling process. We started out wanting counseling to help prepare us for the wedding, but because of the relationship we have built with Rev. Brown, we will be doing monthly marriage sessions. You can feel her spirit from the first time you meet her! If you want someone who is of God and that has a pure spirit to help you along your relationship journey, Rev. Brown is the person for you!

    We Couldn't Be Happier!

    We couldn't be happier! Takeisha was responsive and informative throughout the entire planning process. Our ceremony was everything we discussed and she promised it would be. It was beautiful and personal! We could tell from the first meeting that we didn't want anyone else to bring us together and join us for life. Thank you Takeisha for such a memorable day.

    Awesome Experience

    My husband and I got the pleasure of working with Takeisha for premarital counseling and she was also our officiant. She was AMAZING! She has this pleasant, patient, calm and nonjudgmental spirit. She always responded to us quickly and made us feel so comfortable knowing that she had our backs.
    She made us comfortable to open up to her and on our wedding day she personalized our vows and included positive facts about our journey and our experiences together. She’s the best and I highly recommend her!

    You won’t find a better wedding officiant

    I have been to many weddings where it was very clear that the officiant did not know the couple at all. I did not want that experience for my wedding. I started researching and came across Reverend Takeisha Brown and she had great reviews. After reaching out to her, we scheduled an introductory video consultation where we discussed her offerings and various options for our ceremony. She also took the time to learn more about us as a couple. Reverend Brown came to our rehearsal as scheduled and arrived to our wedding venue early which gave us peace of mind on our special day. When she officiated our wedding, I was beyond impressed by her delivery. She told the story of our love like she had known us since we met as a couple. She took details that we shared about our relationship and lovingly incorporated them while marrying us. After the service, many of our guests thought she was our actual pastor. In addition to her blessed talent as a wedding officiant, Reverend Brown has a warmth and energy that will make any couple feel right at home with her. I never write reviews, but I had to because she was that amazing. With 100% confidence I can say that Reverend Brown is in a class all by herself as a wedding officiant. Book her services early while you can! And congrats to all the soon to be newlyweds out there!!

    Just beautiful!

    Our officiant was graceful, kind, supportive, and down-to-earth. She is extremely knowledgeable and helped us decide what kind of ceremony was best for us. Her gentle presence made everything easy and less scary. Thank you Mrs. Brown for helping us make our wedding beautiful!!!

    STELLAR!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Takeisha was so sweet and easy to work with! She helped us with our vows and made sure there were a few tucked during the ceremony, which eased my new Husband & I. She was also very patient after I forgot my paperwork she needed to sign and send. We plan on starting counseling soon to cover all bases.

    Would and will recommend her to anyone!

    Very lovely lady

    We loved working with Takeisha the only problem that we had was that she thought the rehearsal was at a later time so she wasn’t able to make that at all even though that’s what we had asked for. But for the ceremony it was beautiful the prayers were beautiful and she was willing to move things around last minute that made it flow better for our vows which we loved

    A Solid Foundation's reply:

    I enjoyed working with you & Ben as well! So glad you enjoyed the ceremony’s prayers, vows and overall flow! ❤️❤️❤️
