    My husband and I had a great experience with Gail and would happily recommend her to other couples seeking a wedding officiant. Gail is prompt, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. The phone consultation alone was invaluable. She guided us through the entire process from how to obtain the license to designing our ceremony, and she worked with us to be sure it included the elements that were important to us. The ceremony Gail wrote for us was simple and sweet and exactly what we were looking for.

    Gail was wonderful to work with! She was very on top of things and a big help in ensuring we considered everything we'd need for our ceremony. She is passionate about what she does and she's very knowledgable. She always kept in touch to see if we had questions and to ensure she had all the information she needed to make our ceremony perfect. I'm glad we picked Gail to be our officiant!

    Last minute Elopement

    I highly recommend Gail as an officiant for any couple looking to get married. She was able to accommodate our last minute request for a ceremony which was amazing. Gail throughly explained the entire process of what to expect and asks for details to offer a ceremony for your specific needs. She provided great advice for obtaining the marriage license as well through the county. She really made the process simple and stress free!

    Highly Recommended!

    Gail was perfect to officiate our wedding. We had a small wedding with close family and she made it very perfect and personal. She spent time with me via phone to learn about us. It was clear that Gail has a lot of experience, she was very thorough, provided many options and suggestions, and explained exactly what would happen. Gail definitely made our day special and memorable. We highly recommend her.

    Gail was super helpful from the moment we called. She sought to make it very personal for us even asking what our colors were so that she could match! She was a wonderful speaker and the presentation left tears in everyone's eyes. If I had to do my ceremony over I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

    Gail is wonderful

    We really enjoyed our experience working with Gail. She was kind, friendly and informative. And she was supportive and flexible during this Covid situation. She helped us through two date and location changes because of the pandemic, and performed a beautiful ceremony for us via Zoom. We and our families highly recommend Gail.

    Gail was excellent! We really enjoyed having her as our officiant on our wedding day. Funny enough, Gail was the officiant for our close friends. Upon meeting her and hearing more about her, we immediately knew we wanted to contact her. She was very easy to work with - she made sure to take the time to get to know more about me and my husband. Gail was very accommodating and worked with us to include readings and information we wanted while adding her own special touch to it. She was punctual, organized, and an absolute pleasure to work with. She flawlessly incorporated readings we had requested with readings for both the more secular and more spiritual of our guests. Gail taught us so much along the way of what we should expect during our ceremony and wedding. She was very informative and so easy to communicate with! Thank you so much, Gail! Highly recommended!

    Beautiful venue for weddings

    Gail is such a sweet and friendly person and took a lot of time getting to know us during our initial conversation to put together a ceremony unique to us! We were so happy with how it went! She’s clearly passionate about her work and wants to please the couples she works with. She was personable, timely, professional and most of all - easy to work with. She made sure our ceremony was exactly what we wanted. We're so glad she was able to work with us and highly recommend Gail to anyone in need of a wedding officiant!

    Gail was very helpful in helping us to arrange a small wedding at Hanover Courthouse, which we loved. She was friendly and helped talk through all of the things we needed to think about and prepare for and we were delighted to have a small, informal ceremony that suited us!

    Gail was in tune with what my bride and I wanted. She listened to us and our history that she tailored info a ceremony that was made just for us. It meant so much for her flexibility to conduct the ceremony at my mother's gravesite. My mother always wanted us to be married after high school. My dad stated "he loves short engagements; it only lasted 37 years." If you all haven't come to the conclusion we were high school sweethearts. I kept the rings that I purchased back in high school for this joyous event. My bride was so taken back and it made our day more special. Thank you Gail for everything you offered and did for us. You are the best! Would definitely recommend this woman to conduct your experience and be blessed by the glory of the man upstairs.

    Book Gail Olberg!

    We can't say enough good things about Gail. We had a very simple ceremony and wanted things to be as laid back as possible. She was so helpful and really listened to how we wanted our ceremony to go. She doesn't use a generic wedding script and tailors her script to be unique to each couple.

    We highly recommend Gail, she is very responsive and very open to your ideas. Our guests all loved the ceremony she put together and we got tons of compliments.

    Gail did a wonderful job with our ceremony. The vows she chose were perfect and throughout the entire process was accessible and easy to work with. We recommend her highly. She also was able to use the Historic Hanover Courthouse for our venue and it was perfect for our private ceremony.

    Gail is the best!

    Gail is absolutely incredible! I was so overwhelmed when looking for an officiant, and her talent and expertise were apparent throughout the planning process and on the day of our ceremony.

    After our initial call, all of my questions were answered and she went above and beyond to help me prepare! She was warm-hearted and so knowledgeable. We really couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

    Thank you, Gail!
