    Exceptional

    I can not say enough about Rev Roberts she was a tremendous help in the preparation for our ceremony. Her website was a true blessing, I selected everything from her site and it was perfect!
    We highly recommend her services to everyone.

    Wedding Ceremony

    Reverend Roberts was simply amazing! My wife and I decided last minute to get married over the Christmas holiday while my wife was on break from Army Basic Training. Reverend Roberts was extremely responsive, flexible, and able to squeeze us in no problem on 12/26/23 the day after Christmas. She had some templates to select from on her website to help us create a ceremony. The ceremony was perfect! Reverend Roberts was sweet, fun, and easy to work with. She instantly felt like family. She helped make our special day truly amazing.

    Reverend Roberts was amazing! I was an out of state bride and had only communicated with her over email and she was so responsive and created a wedding ceremony that was exactly what we wanted! We love her!!

    Exactly what we needed!!!

    What a great and unique officiant!! So flexible! She dressed in our colors!!
    We ELOPED, but she helped me have the formal *personalized* ceremony I still wanted! BTW you DON'T need witnesses in Georgia!

    Her website is SO comprehensive and easy to work through, I'm a creative person, but being able to start with the ceremonies she has for inspiration were INVALUABLE TIMESAVERS. She also communicated several times during the writing process and helped us with the flow.

    She was timely, efficient, kind, patient and quick to respond. I contacted her a week or less before we needed her for a Thursday afternoon! She still managed to give us a printed copy of our ceremony on beautiful stationary!!

    Reverend Barbara ALSO saved the day for me!! An injury caused my mother to stay in Florida for our last minute elopement at Paramount Place (a vacation rental up the road from Summit farms, with great views, hot tub and a reasonable rate!) She helped me zip my dress and waited patiently so we could do a, "first look," video!!

    100% would recommend for any type of nuptials, large or small!!

    Rev Roberts Made our Dreams Come True

    My now wife and I were planning on going to the courthouse to get married and planning on throwing a larger wedding at a later date. Given recent events we felt the need to move quickly in solidifying our union. We contacted Rev Roberts late in the evening with about a weeks notice of when we wanted our ceremony. She responded the same night and was happy to accommodate us anywhere we would like. She made us feel as though we had a friend with property that was offering her services rather than a wedding vendor trying to make money. We picked our own location and time of day. We even created our ceremony using the thoughtful example vows provided on her website. The most important part was Rev Roberts made sure to include our son and did not tack on additional prices as I noticed other vendors do. She even typed up our ceremony on beautiful paper and provided a folder as a keepsake of our ceremony. Rev Roberts was always prompt with replying and when we arrived she was incredibly kind, warm and we left feeling she was genuinely happy for our union. We had the most beautiful wedding and you can’t beat the fair price! I would recommend her services to anyone looking for an unforgettable day.

    A Night to Remember

    Rev. Roberts truly made the night for my wedding. Thru the entire process she was so understanding and helpful. If I had any questions what so ever she was there to answer them and since we did a handfasting ceremony she worked with me about adding things here and taking things out there. She truly made my night. I high recommend her to anyone having a wedding.

    Rain on your outdoor wedding day? No worries with Barbara

    Barbara was unquestionably the right choice for our wedding. We wanted a simple, stress free, wedding with no guests. And since we both love nature and the outdoors, we wanted our wedding down an easy trail by a rushing creek in the foothills of North Georgia near where we now live. Her detailed and helpful website gave us all the ideas we needed for a simple, but touching ceremony with the perfect mix of traditional and contemporary. Being an outdoor wedding, on a trail, with a short hike, in July, in Georgia, we had to be super flexible about the weather to dodge those summertime showers. Yes, it rained on our wedding day, but thankfully, there was a long enough dry period where we could pull it off -- and the aroma of the forest after a good rain was perfect. We are so happy that Barbara had her hiking boots ready to go at a moment’s notice to make that rainy July day the best day of our lives.

    Wedding officiant

    My now husband and I reached out to Rev. Roberts to officiate our wedding back in May. Rev Roberts was quick to respond and very knowledgeable! You can tell this is not just a job for her and that she truly enjoys what she does! She is very professional and easy to work with! Her website also offers a lot of helpful information. Rev. Roberts did such a beautiful job officiating our wedding and even provided us with a beautiful printed copy if our vows! I highly recommend her to anyone in need of an officiant!

    "A Great Personalized Ceremony"

    Reverend Barbara Roberts has great energy with an amazing amount of warmth and compassion. She led us first through what was needed for the ceremony and then through it with ease and an understanding of love. Prior to meeting her she presented the
    options and possibilities for this occasion. After talking and meeting her, everything flowed perfectly.
    We had a choice of formats for our ceremonies. Our outdoor wedding in nature, was ours and we got exactly what we wanted. Look at her website. it is thorough and complete for all choices and needs!!!
    So, whatever your choice of wedding, traditional or alternative, give Reverend Roberts a call, shoot her a email and see for yourself!!!! We were ecstatically happy with ours. She is the exemplary Wedding Whisperer!!!!

    Wedding Ceremony

    Reverend Roberts was absolutely amazing to work with from the first contact through our ceremony. She offered guidance and advice when it came to how we wanted our ceremony to flow.

    Amazing officiant for same sex marriage!

    Rev. Barbara was the best officiant of our same sex wedding. We eloped in the blue ridge mountains and we’re worried that we wouldn’t find anyone we felt comfortable with marrying us. Rev. Barbara made all of those worries go away. She was thorough, patient and kind. We would recommend her to anyone looking to getting married in a cabin in the mountains.

    Professional and accommodating

    Rev. Barbara Roberts was incredibly professional and was very knowledgeable throughout the entire experience. We were able to book her to officiate our wedding with ease through her website. She provided many options as far as ceremony styles and content. We were able to narrow down to a style we liked and wanted a bible verse at the end and she was more than accommodating to do so. The best part about booking Rev. Roberts is her communication! She will get back to you promptly and answer any questions you may have. Because of her professionalism I had no doubts of what our ceremony would like. I knew it was exactly what we wanted and she made that happen! Highly recommend!

    Our dream came true...

    Rev Barbara Roberts literally helped our dream of "simply" getting married come true.

    In the wake of all that's gone wrong in 2020, we realized we just wanted to be married to one another. Not much planning went into the occasion, to be honest. Thankfully, Rev Roberts was incredibly flexible and erased just about everything from her schedule to marry us with very short notice.

    We leaned on Rev Roberts for everything from when and where to pick up our marriage license to helping us choose the perfect spot to exchange vows. We decided not to invite a crowd of friends and family because for us - all that mattered was being with one another at that moment.

    I simply cannot say enough good things about our day and our experience working with Rev Roberts. We would do it all over again! Above all else, we would recommend requesting Rev Roberts to officiate your special moment, no matter how much planning you want to do.

    She made our dream a reality!

    Rev Robert's is such a bright soul and a very experienced person to have at your ceremony.

    She arrived early and even assisted in helping the girls and I get ready. She also went over the ceremony with the best man and made sure he knew what he was doing.

    She was very responsive, her reading was beautiful and calming and I felt very comfortable with her handling our paperwork.

    Truly wonderful ceremony!

    Rev. Barbara performed our ceremony at Amicalola Falls. Communication was great and she was super flexible and accommodating. She performed our ceremony at the Appalachian Trail arch, near the visitors center, just prior to us starting our Appalachian Trail thru-hike. We couldn't ask for anything more!

    Perfect experience

    Rev Dr Barbara Roberts was exactly what we were looking for in having a casual, intimate ceremony in a scenic setting. She was able to meet us and our puppy at Amicalola Falls on shorter notice of planning, AND by sunrise! We corresponded seamlessly through email, and she was prompt and precise in making sure that everything was just the way we wanted. (We had fun choosing just the right words for our vows from her website!) Barbara was warm, kind, and professional, and we are so grateful for all of her help in making such a special memory for us. We would highly recommend her to anyone, as she can do it all!

    Jones Harrison Wedding
    Montaluce Winery
    March 20, 2016

    Our wedding was officiated by Rev. Barbara Roberts at Montaluce Winery on the day of the Spring Equinox in 2016. Barbara helped us plan the ceremony and our personalized vows. The wedding, attended by our children and close friends, was picture perfect outside on the top balcony overlooking the vineyard. The vines were also announcing the first day of Spring with their tender leaves just beginning to show.

    The date was chosen to signify a “new beginning” for us and in our lives. To further embrace the annual revival of emerging nature in the North Georgia Mountains, we concluded our ceremony with a Cherokee Indian prayer asking for the blessings of the elements of fire, water, air, and earth.

    As Rev. Roberts recited this prayer, miraculously, the heavens opened, and the elements appeared – wind, lightning, thunder, rain, hail and snow, all within a matter of minutes. Despite the inclement conditions and because of the timely presence of the elements, our union was blessed in a most spectacular fashion. Rev. Roberts with her robe flowing in the wind appeared as a prophet of old leaning into the wind-driven rain, ice and snow to declare us man and wife. A wonderful memory and glorious start to our marriage. Thank you, Barbara!

    Rev. Barbara Roberts officiated my mothers celebration of life event...I was told by everyone in attendance that it was so perfectly fitting. She helped with the wording of Eulogy, poems, and Benediction....Although, this is not her area of normal officiating, I cannot imagine leaving such an important event for anyone else to lead....I recommend her, and will definitely use her for my wedding day...

    Rev. Barbara is very personable, reliable and a kind soul. My partner, our dog and I felt very comfortable with her. We basically just wanted to sign the papers to make it official and didn't want a ceremony. We got married at Amicalola Falls by her house which was beautiful and peaceful. Definitely recommend Rev Barbara Roberts!

    Rev. Roberts was great to work with! Choosing the date was very spontaneous and had a short timeline due to my husband's availability. The plans came together quickly. The ceremony was unique, beautiful and intimate at the bottom of the Falls which is exactly what I was wanting. Rev. Roberts brought just the right amount of tradition and uniqueness to this very special day! Thank you ever so much for a perfect ceremony.

    For our 30th wedding anniversary I chose to surprise my wife with a vow renewal which included hand fasting vows. It is exactly what my wife hoped l would do. At our 20 the Anversery we renewed our vows with our kids and friends present. We had discussed at that time how a more personal ceremony with just the two of us would really be nice and more relaxed. I chose to have our renewal at a cabin in the mountains. My wife and I feel at peace there so I felt it would be a perfect place. Reverend Roberts services made it possible to set up the perfect surprise. She was flexible with the time showed up promptly. I had proposed the renewal to my wife early in the day which brought an overwhelming amount of joyous tears. We spent the morning choosing music to play in the background while Reverend Roberts performed the ceremony. She did a wonderful job and even teared up along with us. We couldn't have asked for more.

    Rev. Dr. Barbara Roberts is such a pleasure. She made our intimate cabin wedding ceremony perfect. What attracted us to her was her professionalism and kindness. I loved that she supported our ideas for our ceremony and we were able to incorporate our own personal vows as well all while using her examples as a guideline. She was more than happy to make any changes needed which made our day stress free, intimate and lovely. We made the best decision by choosing her as our officiant for a day we will never forget!

    Where can we start? Rev. Barbara Roberts performed our elopement ceremony and we were very pleased! From the time that I first e-mailed her, through the date of the wedding, she kept in contact with me elimitating some of my pre-wedding stresses. And, she made both my partner and I very comfortable during our ceremony. If you're looking for a personable Officiant, who will go above and beyond, Rev. Roberts is your lady! We can't thank her enough for her services and hope that you too have the same experience with her.

    Regards,

    John-M. (and Ben) :-)

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Barbara. She was very professional and helpful during the planning process, and she also had a very personal, warm touch that made dealing with her a pleasure. She is very communicative and responsive and is there to help in any way to help you build the perfect ceremony and met with us two times to prepare. She also has some ceremony examples to get your creativity flowing or if you would rather use something already created. We wrote our own, which was quite unique, and she was encouraging and accepting of it. We really enjoyed getting to know Barbara, and she helped counsel us on wedding traditions and ideas and used her vast experience to help us make our big day even better. Having her with us during this big event was wonderful, and we enjoyed her being there to join us as well as visiting with her after the ceremony. This was an overall fantastic experience with a very knowledgeable and professional individual, and we could not recommend her more for your special day.

    Barbara Roberts is an amazing woman!! I'm so glad we found her to officiate our " last minute wedding ceremony!!"
    She is very professional, and fun!! She helped us with our vows, and even braved the unusual , snow showers and blustery day, in the mountains of Georgia, to make this a memorable day for us!!!
    We highly recommend Barbara, to anyone, for any type of wedding venue/ceremony!!! Thank you so much , for uniting us in marriage, and sharing our special day !!!

    I wanted someone that could easily handle our mixed view wedding. My family is very southern Baptist and his was not religious. I wanted something that was more spiritual and about us and the world around us than about a sermon. Rev. Roberts was amazing. She met with us before the wedding to help create our vows and made it easy. Our wedding ceremony was a hit, everyone thought it was beautiful. I would definitely recommend Rev. Roberts as she was very pleasant to work with, affordable, and took the time to get to know us as a couple. We are so thankful to have found her.

    Rev. Barbara Roberts of Meaningful Marriages went above and beyond to help us have the wedding of our dreams. Initially, I spoke with Rev. Roberts and gave her an idea of what we wanted for our wedding ceremony; from there she provided us with options for the venue of our wedding, options for our wedding vows, and she suggested a wonderful photographer. While we were planning the ceremony, Rev. Roberts stayed in contact with us and answered any questions that we had. In the end we had the wedding ceremony we always wanted. It was personalized for us and that is what made our wedding one of the most memorable days in our lives.

    Rev. Roberts is a pleasure to work with. She has so much good information on her website that really makes the ceremony planning process painless.

    Reverend Roberts was great a patient. I just wish she had received the vows we wanted to perform at the wedding, but we loved each other and we knew we wanted to be married. She had the best price around. She could have just said Do You and we both would have said YES!!! Thank you again for your promptness and patience.
