    Cari is amazing!

    We hired Celia’s company after she officiated my sister’s wedding. When she wasn’t available, we were introduced to Cari who would be our officiant. Cari was the perfect fit for us. She is a lovely write and wrote a beautiful, personalized ceremony for us that so many guests praised. It was heartfelt and really hit all the notes we were looking for. We highly recommend Cari for all types of weddings. She was a doll and extremely professional.

    Best wishes for an exciting ***married*** summer!

    Unforgettable Ceremony!

    Celia was absolutely incredible from our first phone call through the end of the wedding day. After speaking with Celia, we knew she was the right choice for our wedding. She made the process as stress free as possible and was super flexible and helpful the entire time. She thought of such a unique touch for our ceremony (popsicles!) which was the perfect touch. Many of our guests asked us if we knew her personally because the ceremony was so personalized and beautiful. Our ceremony was perfect and we couldn't be happier :)

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Hi! You are so sweet! It was so fun to work with you because you gave me so many cool things to write about! (No pun intended, lol) I often tell my couples that the smallest details tell the biggest story!
    Best wishes for a wonderful **married** summer!

    Celia is amazing!

    Celia was AMAZING! She made our wedding ceremony so personal and sweet. Couldn't be happier with what she did for us. She took the time to get to know our story and really made the speech special and gave us tips abut vows and even sent me a whole step-by-step list on how to change my last name! Super helpful. We loved her and totally recommend her to anyone.

    A magical day made even better by Celia Milton

    Celia was fantastic from start to finish, she made this whole process easy and enjoyable. Her words were absolutely beautiful and she really took into account our wants for the ceremony. After the service everyone kept coming up to us saying how fantastic she was and they were correct. I would recommend Celia to any bride and groom looking for a gorgeous ceremony on the day of their wedding! She was also so helpful after with the license!!!! 10/10 would recommend.

    Celia is the BEST!!

    When we first talked with Celia, we knew that she'd be the best officiant for us! Chatting with her was effortless, and you sense her genuine excitement for the couples she's working with and has married in the past. She told our story beautifully while keeping it short and sweet, exactly how we wanted. She also helped us with our processional and guided us with our marriage license. Highly recommend hiring Celia!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    You're so nice! Thank you so much! Your wedding was so warm, so celebratory, just so much fun (with such a well behaved dog who tried to steal the show!) You made such smart choices of music, photography and venue (of course), of COURSE it was going to be great!
    Best wishes for many years of love, laughs and big sloppy dog kisses!

    Amazing ceremony

    Celia was an incredible wedding officiant. My wife and I knew she was the right person for us from the very first phone call, the energy she brings to the table is infectious. She prepared a beautiful ceremony and did a wonderful job telling the story of our love. She is also extremely helpful with the marriage certificate process which is a huge plus!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    You're just so sweet! Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time at this crazy time of year! Your wedding was so beautiful and you and your vows were both so spot on! I love that you laughed so much during the ceremony!
    Best wishes for a wonderful holiday season and a fabulous "married" new year too!!!

    Truly Exceptional Wedding Officiant-Michael Yelle

    Celia Milton Wedding Officiants (Michael Yelle) were truly exceptional. Michael was truly magnificent and captivating as he meticulously put our relationship into words for our wedding ceremony. His speech was funny, endearing, meaningful and heartfelt. Not only was his speech perfection but Michael guided us with every detail along the marriage license process pre and post wedding. I really cannot say more than you will not be disappointed and Michael will make your wedding day beautiful and memorable. Thank you Michael for everything.

We could not have picked a better person to officiate our wedding. Thanks a bunch Celia. Your the best :)

    Amazing Ceremony

    When we reached out to Celia about officiating our wedding, we knew right away she was someone we needed to book! She is energetic, perky and experienced. We got so many compliments on the authenticity of our ceremony and that it was a unique gathering that really encapsulated us as a couple. Celia was responsive and always interested in getting to know what makes us, "us". She was able to tie so many pieces of our life into the perfect ceremony. We had a lot of different (and maybe a little crazy) ideas and Celia was able to incorporate these pieces naturally into our ceremony.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much! Crazy? Nah, lol! It was all great fun!
    Best wishes for a fabulous **married** fall and holiday season!

    Celia is wonderful.

    Celia was WONDERFUL. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, came up with a beautiful script which we were able to review and comment on before the wedding, and delivered the most beautiful ceremony. Our guests are still talking about how wonderful she was, and how it seemed like she knew us forever. 10000% recommended.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much! YOU two were an absolute pleasure too! You seemed to enjoy every minute, which is what everyone hopes for!
    Best wishes for an amazing ***married*** summer!!!

    Personable and Professional

    We were having a lot of trouble finding a wedding officiant until we found Ceila. She was very friendly and personable and loved to chat with us during the wedding planning. It was great that she was so amendable to changing and having us review her speech and helping us write our own vows along with printing them in a nice booklet for us. We really appreciate Ceila and was an amazing person to work with and glad we found her for our ceremony.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much! What a sweet, stylish wedding! I really enjoyed working wih you and with your other pros. I'm glad you found me too!!
    Best wishes for a wonderful **married** summer!

    Positive, Lighthearted, Uplifting vibe - easy and fun to work with

    Celia was great –positive, lighthearted, and uplifting vibe. She was fun to talk to and easy to work with. We knew right from the start of our first conversation with Celia that we would choose her to be our officiant. Our ceremony was perfect – serious enough for the weight of a wedding, but also fun. She had great ideas, and had us approve the script ahead of time. She was open to all of our edits as well and wasn’t offended by our changes. Communicating details leading up to the day was a little difficult, there could have been a little more organization, but everything worked out in the end. Celia also filed our marriage certificate for us and sent us instructions on what happens next and how to get it, which was so helpful. After the ceremony all of our guests were asking how we knew her because they were all sure she was an old family friend. It was perfect. We highly recommend Celia!

    The best officiant

    Celia was a pleasure to work with. We had so much fun talking to her and she put together our ceremony and all of our guests thought we've known her for years! Our most reoccurring compliment at the wedding was about her and our ceremony. We felt she really got to know us and our story and reflected it beautifully in the ceremony she wrote and put together. Look no further! The best officiant! She even incorporated jewish ceremony elements in with ease and is great with any cultural elements.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you! You were so chill through the whole process, it was really delightful to collaborate with you. Your families are so nice, and of course there is THEO, the wonderdog! I thought it was pretty hilarious that when I mentioned "another family member" everyone laughed because they knew I was talking about him!
    Best wishes for a wonderul married life together, and thank you again!

    Simply Amazing!!

    We cannot express enough how amazing Celia was. From the minute we first spoke to her she instantly meshed with the vibe we were going for and was excited to work with us. She was incredibly responsive and personable. The questionnaires she gave to us enabled her to add a personal touch to our ceremony. She incorporated all of our ideas perfectly and added special things that made the ceremony that much more amazing. We could not be happier with the job she did. We had multiple guests tell us that it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever witnessed and it was thanks to Celia.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    What a fun, fun wedding! Your creativity really made my job effortless! I'm glad you all enjoyed the day.
    Best wishes for a wonderful **married** holiday season and the best of New Years'!

    Wonderful to Work With

    Celia was amazing to work with. She was incredibly thorough and patient through the entire planning process. She truly got to know us to make our ceremony very personal. Her attention to detail and relaxing tone of voice are what sold us on booking her. We highly recommend hiring Celia for your wedding!

    The best of the best!

    Celia is the best of the best! She was incredible to work with: always answered emails quickly, very flexible, was always available to hop on a phone call, and provided us with all of the license/certificate info. She's so sweet and personable, we immediately felt so comfortable talking to her and sharing our story. She provided detailed questionnaires for each of us to fill out which she used to create the most custom, intimate, and personalized ceremony. She included the perfect balance of serious, emotional moments and light-hearted stories/readings. She made great suggestions to make our ceremony special and really highlight us as a couple, including a pet blessing for our cats and a ring warming which was most of our guests' favorite part! We signed off on the script prior to the wedding and she followed it perfectly. Our guests are still raving about how much they loved the ceremony!! It brought the majority of them to tears and they all said it was the best ceremony they've been to. We knew the script was great but the way Celia performed it was even better. We really cannot thank Celia enough for exceeding all of our wedding ceremony expectations and making our wedding day so memorable and special! I highly recommend booking Celia ASAP!!!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    LIsten, I have rules about making me cry before noon, lol! All kidding aside (well, temporarily) it was so fun to be part of your wedding! The venue is gorgeous, and while the weather didn't exactly cooperate, the setting in front of the fireplace was magnificent, and you both looked like you were having a great time! (The way it should be, right?)
    Best wishes for many, many years of love and laughs and cat kisses!

    Thankful for Celia!

    Not enough words to say how fabulous our experience with! First off we were very lazy about looking for an officiant because we were nervous! We didn’t know how we would select them and how we would make the choice. We searched and searched and spoke to about 5 people. They were all just OK. But once we chatted with Celia it just clicked. She was real with us, open, and really funny! She was super sweet and thoughtful and sympathetic to our situation of having multiple postponements. Once we booked her the rest of the experience was just so smooth. She worked with us and let us review our ceremony script multiple times until we were happy. She gave us tons of ideas since we weren’t sure what we wanted to do with the ceremony. Afterwards, she handled all the paperwork for us and was very prompt with making sure all the legal stuff was taken care of. She is a such a pro and we are forever grateful for her. The beautiful words she said during our ceremony is something we will never forget.

    You're so sweet! Planning a wedding during a P******** (don't want to say THAT out loud, lol!) is a real challenge, but you nailed it!

    Best wishes for a wonderful new year full of GOOD surprises, health and hilarity!

    Amazing Ceremony!

    Hands down the best part of our wedding day. Our guests keep telling us how personal and unique our ceremony was. Even our photographers who have seen hundreds of weddings said ours was by far the best they've seen. Celia pulled literary references that were unique and fit perfectly with our story. She listened and took feedback and ran with it. We are so happy we had Celia!! Book Celia now!!!

    It was such a pleasure to collaborate with you at one of my favorite venues! And we managed to maneuver around the rain too! (I know it's supposed to be good luck but frankly, I can do without it!)
    Best wishes for a wondefrul **married ** autumn season and a winter full of joyous holidays with your blended families!
