Beyond Expectations
I found Suzanne a little more than one month before the date I had told my then future husband was the day I had planned...not much of a planner. He asked, "Are we still getting married in July?" I responded with a confident, "Yes, July 25." I calmly walked to my computer and typed in "Weddings in Sedona" and up popped "Intimate Sedona Weddings." I sent her a message and inquired about the date. Surprisingly, thanks to COVID-19, our date was available. I spoke to Suzanne within a day and knew she was a perfect fit. We went with the Very Intimate Wedding package that included photos and flowers. My flowers were just has I had imagined...BEAUTIFUL!! The photographer gave us more than enough excellent shots. Suzanne's reading was so perfectly suited to us that our parents thought we had known her. The reading was so good, in fact, that we decided we didn't need to write our own vows! Suzanne communicates frequently, provides professional, high quality services and is a wonderful human being. I cannot recommend Sedona Intimate Weddings enough!! -

When we first reached out to Suzanne she was just great! She was with us every step of the way, very flexible and always available to help. Our wedding took place on March 15th, while everything was shutting down due to Covid-19. With planning a wedding and having family come in it was stressful as any wedding can be. Suzanne was great in communicating with us that last week making sure everything was still on track. We finally met Suzanne the day of as she went over to make sure everything was going smoothly. Her recommendations were awesome, our photographer Tanee Johnson was great. We are very grateful for everything Suzanne did for us and we recommend her to everyone! -

Sean L. Married on 02/12/2021Sedona Wedding Magic
As many engaged couples do, we chose Sedona for the beautiful landscape and weather. However, as soon as I spoke with Suzanne Loo-McCoy to "interview" her for the job of officiant I immediately told my wife that we had to go with her because she was such a calming influence and explained everything in detail and took her time with us (mostly me). I would recommend her to anyone getting married in the Sedona area many times over. She stuck with us and even though we got hit with cold weather during our outdoor wedding, she delivered her end of the bargain with flying colors! She provided a beautiful service for us and we will never forget the care she exerted to make sure we were comfortable with the words within and the structure of the ceremony.
10/10 would recommend. -

Keith L. Married on 06/06/2020Suzanne was simply AMAZING!
We knew after our 1st talk with Suzanne that she was the right one for us, as she really took her time and got to know us, and what was important to us! She skillfully guided us through the whole process, and really gave us great input! And when we had to cancel our April date due to Covid, she just rolled with it, and was totally flexible when we saw a small opening the beginning of June. She was truly amazing, and even our guests were all impressed with the ceremony! She is without a doubt, someone we can highly recommend! She made our ceremony very special, and we thank her from the bottom of our hearts!

Lara D. Married on 10/05/2019Amazing & Memorable
My husband and I were married on July 2 at the base of Bell Rock, by Deborah Leigh. She was an absolute delight to work with, easy to communicate with (as we are from NJ, and planned everything remotely), and a truly kind spirit - just the person you want to lead your special day. She radiates joy and love and did an outstanding job officiating our ceremony. It is a day we will truly NEVER forget. -

Madelyn M. Married on 08/30/2019Absolutely amazing ! :)
From start to finish Deborah Leigh Collins was an absolute PLEASURE to work with. She was kind, patient, and made sure we felt comfortable with our ceremony before our big day. On the day of the ceremony Deborah was prompt, professional, and her big smile put me at ease. With that being said, I wouldn't change one thing about it. It truly felt like "us", it was a dream. I HIGHLY recommend Deborah Leigh to anyone in the market for an officiant. She is amazing. -

Suzanne is incredible! From the day we spoke with her over the phone she made my husband and I feel empowered and excited about our special day. If you are looking for a customized ceremony that fits the values of you and your partners values and vision of your special day, I would hands down recommend being married by Intimate Sedona Weddings. Words can never express how grateful we are in having Suzanne bless our union through her personalized words and loving energy. If you truly want your wedding to reflect who you and your partner are, Suzanne and her assist Debra will make it happen. When I was looking for a specific flower for my crown, Suzanne made it happen and educated me on the name of the flower. She is wise, passionate, and really pays attention to her clients as to create a ceremony that is one of a kind.-

Deborah L. Married on 10/23/2018Our love ceremony was perfectly personalized
My wedding day was one of the best days of my life and Suzanne played a huge role in making it so special. My husband and I are not religious but have always found divinity being immersed in nature so of course we chose to be outside in the trees. Suzanne took our love of nature and the oneness we feel in the trees and innerwove it into our ceremony, using nature as the expression of divine force that reigns over our relationships and all that is. It was a great way to incorporate our personal sense of spirituality without feeling religious or overly spiritualized. It felt like us, truly and uniquely.
Suzanne had asked us a lot of questions about each other and our feelings of love, and then she artfully wove what we had written her into our ceremony. It was catered to us in such a personalized way, she felt like an extension of our relationship and a perfect person to carry us into our next phase.
When she sent us the 1st draft of the ceremony, I got so choked up reading it I had to pass it to my husband to read, and then he got all choked up. It was so powerful to hear our stories of each other and our future goals together wrapped up in such a strong and compassionate way, it made the “I do” in us that much louder.
When it came time to actually say those words to each other, both of us knew we had put our love into the right hands. It was perfect, absolutely perfect. I could not have dreamed of a better, more sublime experience. Both my husband and I are so very grateful we chose Suzanne to be the voice of such a monumental monument, and we would recommend her to anyone wanting their day to feel alive and personalized. Thank you Suzanne!
With love,
Deborah Leigh Collins

Ted P. Married on 10/18/2018It was perfect.
The whole experience was perfect, how lucky we were to have found Suzanne. We wanted an intimate and special wedding/elopement experience in Sedona, and we wanted it to be low stress. But how to do it? We are so busy in our personal and professional lives that we needed to find the right help so we could just focus on the magic of the event, and not be concerned with all the logistics. Most importantly, we wanted an officiant who would "get us". Suzanne was a dream come true in all respects.
Although she told us up front that she was not a wedding "planner" per se, we opted for her "Very Intimate" package which covered everything we needed. It turned out we didn't need a wedding planner, we just needed Suzanne. She recommended some amazing locations for the event, we drove around and made our selection. She spent considerable time on the phone getting to know us and wrote a beautiful custom ceremony just for us (religious or nonreligious, agnostic or spiritual, etc., she deftly caters to you in this regard as well) and gave us a very nice printed copy of the entire ceremony afterwards. This is a nice touch as it warms our hearts to re-read it periodically and relive that magical day. She also provided an incredible photographer who was really fun to work with. We are still wowed when we open the file, trying to figure out which pics are our favorites. She supplied the flowers which were EXACTLY as the bride had requested, and she expertly pinned the boutonniere to my lapel with the finesse of an experienced pro. She clearly has excellent resources, we were so glad we just put everything into her hands.
Suzanne has a passion for this work, and she puts her whole heart into it. We felt so well cared for as if we were her only clients (and I know she was busy since it was high season). If this sounds like what you are looking for, we can attest that Suzanne is a local treasure in this industry and your search can end here. Thank you Suzanne! Ted & Lisa. Picture from my iPhone, the pro pictures were way better.

Taylor C. Married on 09/07/2018Absolutely Wonderful
This review is a month overdue! Suzanne was just wonderful. She was our person. Everything about the process was so smooth, and she was so helpful and calming. Her thoughtful ceremony was exactly what we wanted and so beautifully written. Thank you, Suzanne, for being apart of our magical day. -

Denise Married on 08/12/2018Suzanne was absolutely amazing to work with. We live in Chicago and decided to get married in Sedona, so our first research project was the Officiant. We did a ton of independent online research, looked at websites, reviews from previous customers and Mark & I both chose Suzanne. After our first phone call with her months before the wedding date we realized we picked the perfect person to oversee our ceremony. She was so easy to talk to, she listens and really gets to know you. We filled out a very in-depth questionnaire about ourselves, family and our relationship. She really invested the time to get to know us. In fact, several of our wedding guests thought she was our personal friend and someone who had known us for years. That’s how personal she made our ceremony. Our wedding day was so much more than we could have ever hoped for, largely in part due to Suzanne. We’re writing this a full month after our wedding and it was so beautiful we want to relive it every single day. She gave us one of the most precious gifts ever, a keepsake book of our ceremony including the personal vows we wrote for each other. She’s also a fantastic reference for any of your other wedding needs. She helped us with the photographer and the florist. Both of her references were truly amazing. Hire Suzanne!! Your wedding will be perfect.

Aaryn Married on 06/23/2018If you, like I did six months ago, have the wild idea to do an intimate wedding in Sedona, stop right here because you have officially found your officiant. Late one night in January, my then fiance and I decided to forego the more traditional style wedding we'd been planning on doing, in favor of having a wedding exactly how WE wanted it: In Sedona, with only our parents and siblings there, on a gorgeous trail, with a ceremony structured specifically for who we are. I giddily emailed Suzanne at midnight, and Suzanne returned my email early the next morning with matching giddiness. I knew right then and there that she had to be our officiant. The next several months were spent emailing back and forth picking out a date, picking the trail we had our ceremony on, and her getting to know us both individually and as a couple so that she could truly represent who we are in our ceremony. Because my now husband and I live out of state, we only met once prior to the wedding. Upon meeting Suzanne, my husband and I both felt like she was an old friend. Suzanne is so efficient--in that meeting she took even more notes about who we were, figured out our florals based off the picture of my wedding dress and my husband's suit, and got our photographer based off the style of photos we like. While we met, I forgot she was actually "at work" because she is just so amazing to be around. From then until the wedding she would send us updates, drafts of our ceremony, and little reminders along the way. The day of the ceremony, she was just like she'd always been: collected, excited, and so unbelievably kind. Our ceremony was beautiful; it had everyone in tears. She had everything prepared for us: tissues (thank you, Suzanne!), our printed vows, and a gorgeous "Remembrance Booklet" that had our entire ceremony scripted out and gorgeously printed. Our wedding day was amazing because of Suzanne. We both cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Suzanne! -Kortlin & Aaryn

Jennifer Married on 06/02/2018Suzanne is the best! She created a magical ceremony for us, that was perfect. We received many compliments on her in particular & she made us feel very comfortable and at ease with the entire process. I can't recommend her enough!

Laura Married on 05/18/2018Suzanne was SO wonderful to work with. Our ceremony was perfect! My guests loved her. My husband and I met with her in person initially to share our story, and she genuinely took interest in us and wanted to get to know us. We filled out a questionnaire so she could see our vision - how long the ceremony should be, how many readings, any special rituals, what our beliefs are, etc and then she put together the ceremony. She sent us drafts of it so we knew exactly what to expect and could ask her to change or add things as we wanted. She was very flexible - initially I told her we would run the rehearsal on our own, but when we got close to the ceremony I realized I was in over my head and she was able to help lead our rehearsal with only a few weeks notice. She put together a very nice copy of our ceremony as a keepsake as well. Suzanne is such a kind person and has a very calm, loving energy about her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a beautiful, personalized wedding.

Eric Married on 04/07/2018Every couple wants their day to be perfect, and that pressure can create a lot of stress in the planning process of a wedding. Even the smallest of ceremonies have lots of details, that can easily be overlooked. I can't say enough about how wonderfully Suzanne took control of our many disparate thoughts about our ceremony and refined them into a perfectly timed, intimate, and emotional ceremony that effected all in attendance. We are still getting compliments months later. My wife and I are emotional people, we had a lot to say to each other, and we had our own thoughts about how the ceremony should be. Suzanne has a rare ability to connect, to be in the present, and to hear what you are saying, and to notice and pick up on the connection and love in the people she is working with. She met with us in person, listened, asked the right questions, got to know us and our story, and was able to take all we threw at her about our feelings and love for each other (we wrote our own vows) and distill in down into a wonderful ceremony that incorporated details of our faith, our family, and our commitments to each other. On the day of our wedding she was calming, authentic, and in complete control from start to finish. We had nothing to distract us from each other, and what we had gathered everyone to witness. Truly I wish we could do that day over and over again. Details I think a couple looking for an officiant should know: Suzanne has been doing this a long time, and recognizes and respects the tenants of all faiths. She knows things you will forget or not think of, and she accounts for that. She provides the entire ceremony, with everything that will be said by every party, in written form complete with scheduling times; and she was also able to do this for my wife and I individually so that we could surprise each other with our words on our wedding day. There are more things I would like to say, but this site is cutting me off. Hire Suzanne. Your day deserves it.
