Officiant Services
My husband and I had a really great experience with Corkie. From the first time we sat down with her until our wedding day the process was very comfortable and stress free. We did not worry about anything (except our own personal vows) and even then Corkie was right there with us giving lots of support, encouragement, and smiles. I would highly recommend having her as your officiant.Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
Thank you for this wonderful review, Madison! With the energy from your guests, and the energy from you and Sunny, it was a beautiful, romantic and loving wedding day. I'm so happy we worked together on your ceremony! Much love to you both! -

Corkie made everything so easy
Corkie was a dream to work with, she made the whole process of planning our ceremony and filling out the paperwork easy. I got so many compliments all night about the officiant and on the day of Corkie took care of everything. Couldn't recommend her enough!Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
Thank you, Emily! I loved working with you and Marco on your wedding. The love between you was palpable and I was honored to witness it. Stay happy and in love! -

Our officiant tested positive for Covid the day before our wedding and Corkie came to the rescue. You can imagine how stressful the week before the wedding is but Corkie reassured us and announced our vows like she knew them for weeks. Without her our wedding day wouldn’t have been possible. We are forever thankful. Thank you so much for saving our day!Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
It was an honor to be a part of your beautiful and romantic wedding! Thank you for your kind words! Stay happy and in love! -

We cannot speak highly enough of Corkie!
When we first met, she had a binder of samples and options for the ceremony parts that we got to look through and she would read us parts we were interested in so we could hear how they sounded and felt. We put parts together and arranged the words in the way that felt best to us. We really felt like we got to curate the perfect ceremony and perfect words to express our love and commitment to each other.
She was, of course, very open to any changes or personal touches. And she was very helpful when we wanted to change words or parts over email after our meeting. She made suggestions and did everything we could ask her for and more.
She truly made our day sweet, fun, and relaxing. We knew we had nothing to worry about with Corkie leading the ceremony.
And our guests had wonderful things to say about her after the ceremony and in the following days.Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
It was a magical day, wasn't it? Thank you for this glowing review! I enjoyed getting to know you both and learning your love story. The love you share and the high energy of your guests made it quite a celebration. Thank you for choosing me to be part of all the fun! -

Ashlyn K. Sent on 04/27/2023Corkie is the best
We could not have asked for a better person to officiate our wedding.
From the initial meeting to outline the ceremony to our wedding day, Corkie was the absolute BEST!
She makes you feel special and genuinely cares about the people she works with.
She has the best speaking voice and tone to make your ceremony the perfect blend of fun and sincere
Thank you Corkie for making our special day feel so amazing.Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
You're welcome, Ashlyn! It was so good to meet you and Andres and be part of your wedding day. Your wedding was fun and emotional, there was so much love! I appreciate this wonderful review, thank you! -

Literally amazing
WOW, she was incredible. Corkie just radiates love, and calmness. She was the perfect. She helped us plan, last minute I might add, and made sure we liked everything about it. She made great suggestions about the ceremony. She added personal touches, and everyone from our wedding has been saying that it was the best ceremony they have ever been to. I know this might be silly but she made sure to get out of the way during our kiss so she was unseen in our photos. Corkie also gave us each a little rose quartz before the ceremony and checked on us. She really made our day soooo special and I can not express how much I appreciated her.Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
Thank you for this sweet review! I completely melted when you two exchanged vows...so perfect and loving! The energy in the room was high and filled with love. I'm glad we met and created your ceremony together. Stay happy! -

The Best Officiant!
CORKIE! CORKIE! CORKIE! The best Officiant hands down! After scrolling down The Wedding Wire for quite some time, I came across Corkie's page and immediately sent a message inquiring about her services. When we first met her at Panera Bread, I knew within 2 minutes, she was the one. We had only interviewed Corkie and I am so glad she was available for our day. From our first meeting to the meetings in the summer, Corkie was so kind. So caring, so generous, and so honest. She has a special aura about herself and her energy is very authentic. I loved how she made us both feel and heard! She didn't try to force us to go the traditional route with any part of our ceremony. It was strictly up to our comfortability and for that, I will forever thank Corkie for making us feel heard. As we are true gamers, we switched up our vows to a gamer style and she was in love with it. Our audience loved it and couldn't stop repeating it throughout the night. My guests spoke very highly of Corkie and shared that her words were so sincere and beautiful. She immediately brought the crowd's energy from the moment the ceremony began. We had a beautiful ceremony, filled with laughs, smiles, and tears. And Corkie is the reason for that! Corkie, Demarcus and I adore you so much and we will reunite for our vow renewals in the future! Thank you thank you thank you!Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
Your wedding day was so happy and full of love! Thank you for trusting me to care for your wedding ceremony. I love working with you both and can't wait for your future vow renewal! -

Jaquelyne S. Sent on 04/20/2024Steer Clear of Wedgewood and their Recommendations
Corkie was our officiant at a Wedgewood venue a few months back. When I think back to our ceremony, I think of our beautiful vows...as well as the part that Corky left out, and part she left in after we'd asked her to remove it months prior both in-person and via email; I had sent her a PDF my now husband and I had spent ours on, with an entire updated version including the changes we'd wanted and made. After her initial apology, she tried to blame us for not proof-reading the final copy (after SHE failed to make the changes we had provided months prior or printed the wrong copy) because we were busy with inflexible jobs, writing our own vows, and made the mistake of trusting Corkie. If you want the wedding of your dreams, avoid Wedgewood all together. If you want the ceremony to go as planned, please consider picking someone more attentive and accountable.Dearly Beloved Celebrations's reply:
This is the third time I've publicIy apologized and asked for your forgiveness. You told me I am not to be forgiven. I found the oversight and wish it never happened. I did not do anything on purpose to harm you. You were reimbursed for my services and I wish you peace.
