    Cruise Port Wedding

    It was everything we wanted outside under a tree with the cruise ship in the background, after the wedding we boarded the ship for 5 days perfect. The ceremony was exactly what we wanted 15 minutes non religious and about us and our many years 49 to remarry each other.

    Shannon was amazing

    Shannon went above and beyond to help make our day the very best. We wanted to get married at the cruise port in Long Beach and it happened. Shannon was easy to work with and made it very simple. I would recommend her as a #1 officiant and especially if you’re looking for Ling Beach or in Southern California … Thank you so much

    An amazing wedding officiant!

    Shannon officiated me and my husband’s Covid wedding in 2020. We wanted to have the wedding on the same day we started dating and she was able to accommodate that! She was professional, punctual, and flexible to me and my husband’s needs! She even gifted us an amazing book afterwards! I could not recommend her enough! We’ve been married now for 4 years and I’m glad she was part of our love story! ❤️

    Thoughtful and Flexible

    Shannon was an absolute joy to work with and the perfect officiant for our intimate ceremony. She reached out to us ahead of time to learn a little bit about our story and hear our thoughts on matrimony, which was great, as it made the whole arrangement seem less transactional. On the day of, she was flexible and understanding, as we were running ridiculously late! She had a great calming energy, as we were running around frantically. She even helped pin my corsage to my lapel!
    For the ceremony itself, she did a great job of integrating some of the thoughts we shared with her ahead of time with her own, as well as giving us the space to share our vows with each other. She pitched in on good ideas of photos and all around just had great energy. You can tell she just loves love, so it was a great vibe to have for what was just me, my spouse, her and the photographer. Would highly recommend!

    She was beyond awesome!!!

    Absolutely amazing and awesome wedding officiant!!!! I have been to literally thousands of weddings (being in the wedding and events industry for almost 15 years). I heard she does other things other than being a wedding officiant, but she did it like a seasoned pro and it was well performed!!! Absolutely loved hearing her speak. Brought chills down my spine and made me tear up a little because it was absolutely wonderful and straight from the heart!!!! She was meant for this and it shows!!! Wonderful job on the ceremony Shannon!!!

    No need to look further! Shannon is the best!

    My now husband and I decided to elope before we have our big wedding next year. We contacted Shannon on short notice and she able to officiate our marriage. She gave the best advice on beaches for the ceremony and was super helpful navigating through everything and made feel extremely comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better officiant.

    Expectations exceeded!

    Shannon was, by title, the officiant for our wedding. But she was SO much more. She is organized, professional with an abundance of warmth, sincerity and heart. She also gave me ideas on how to integrate my children into our ceremony. There were too many nuances to mention from our conversations which made our ceremony great vs "very good". I interviewed 3 officiants for 15mins each. Out of the gate, I knew Shannon was a great fit. A lifetime of thanks from Peter and Angela, Shannon.

    She did a fabulous job

    Shannon did a great job of capturing who We are and doing exactly how I wanted the ceremony to go. She was thorough and the write up of our ceremony and everything I wanted included as well as the filing of our marriage certificate. I would definitely recommend her.

    Magical!!!

    We both liked shannon immediately because she was really interested in us and she proved our initial impression by preparing a very personal ceremony with us and never stole the spotlight
    I would highly recommend shannon.
    It’s a special day, it’s important. Shannon filled the day with kindness and care. We couldn’t ask for more than that.

    Personal & Meaningful

    I wasn’t sure where to start with planning my ceremony especially because my husbands family and mine have different faith beliefs. Shannon took the time to plan a ceremony for us that both of our families would appreciate. Everyone present said that our ceremony was truly unique. We have Shannon to thank for that. The level of customer care that she provided to us throughout the experience was more than we expected. She even gave us a book about love as a wedding gift.
    Thank you Shannon!

    Magical Moment

    As a pagan I was worried I would not find someone to understand the difference in detail of the ceremony. Shannon not only took the time to inquire with me personally but me personally but also did her own diligent research research to come up with the perfect idea idea to present. The day of the event I could not have asked for anything better in terms of her delivery her words were compassionate, Genuine and heartfelt. The composure of her delivery was poignant and hit all the right marks without droning along leaving anyone to lose interest. I truly feel that there were magic in her words and a spell was cast to bind my husband and I together forever
