Hanna D. Sent on 05/24/2023Cathleen was an absolute dream
My partner and I had a fairly non-traditional wedding. Cathleen was such a wonderful part of our day, and understood what we were looking for right away. I reached out through WeddingWire and when she left me a voicemail in response I cried because I immediately got such a great feeling from her! We really loved what she put together for us. It felt like us. We didn't exchange rings, we just kept our engagement rings, and she used a ring blessing for us. She added a beautiful section for my partner's young kids, who were our makeshift wedding party. She walked into the venue as I was still in my pajamas, cutting flowers for table arrangements minutes 45 minutes before the ceremony and stepped in to help so I could get dressed and get ready. I was so very grateful for that help (and the arrangements were gorgeous by the way-- better than I could have ever done)! Thank you for everything Cathleen, we will never forget it! -

Cathleen was fantastic. She really took the time to get to know us as a couple, and helped select readings, fully customized our ceremony, and gave us great suggestions for writing our vows. Despite only meeting her in person the day of my wedding, it felt like I'd known her forever- she has such a warm, welcoming, calming personality. My venue ended up being unprepared for my wedding, and Cathleen went above and beyond to do what she could to help mitigate. My only regret is that I only will ever work with her once; she truly is fantastic to work with, and I wholeheartedly recommend her. -

The Reverend Cathleen was very professional and knowledgeable, communicated with us to develop our own ceremony. She made some wonderful suggestions for readings! The only disappointing thing is that she had my fiancé turn his back to me as I walked up the aisle, and I had SO wanted him to watch me as I came up. But I would highly recommend Reverend Cathleen for your wedding!Life's Mysteries WNY's reply:
I am so sorry Susan. I was waiting for your photographer to turn and capture his reaction to seeing you for the first time. I am sorry that I waited and you were disappointed. I am glad you were pleased in every other regard. Wishing you all the very best! -

Reverend Cathleen made our special day even more special. She is kind, considerate and fun to be with. Her ceremony was beautiful and she tied it in to where we were married, Lake Seneca. We were blessed to have had someone as special as Reverend Cathleen celebrate this special day with us.Life's Mysteries WNY's reply:
Thank you Gary. It was a beautiful day and a lovely, intimate ceremony with just the 5 of us. Wishing you both all the best and a long, happy marriage! -

Reverend Cathleen was very professional and made sure we were comfortable with her and her services before our ceremony. She held a beautiful ceremony and my husband and I were very happy with her services! Thank you so much for making our day so special!Life's Mysteries WNY's reply:
Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure working with you two. What a lovely wedding! The whole day was memorable but what stood out were the vows you and Josh wrote, they were so touching. -

Thank you very much. It was wonderful working with you two, and it was a true pleasure to preside at your wedding. I love your sense of humor, and it was fun working some of that into your ceremony. It seemed to be a perfect day at the beautiful castle surrounded by those closest to your hearts. I wish you both all the very best! -
User2289361 Sent on 08/27/2015My fiancée and I were looking for something a little different with our ceremony. We wanted a ceremony that would be personal, yet “spiritual”. Reverend Cathleen was the first and only officiant that we met with. It was pure luck that we met with her first, but we don’t regret not meeting anyone else. She has an inviting, comforting demeanor that makes you feel like you’ve known her for so much longer.
We decided to do something a little different – we wanted her to create the ceremony, and the first time we would hear it would be on our wedding day. We answered questions about ourselves, our relationship, and each other. Reverend Cathleen delivered exactly what we wanted with only the responses to our questions, and some readings that we had picked out. Reverend Cathleen is truly talented – she listened to what we wanted during our meeting, and created exactly what we wanted from our responses. All of our guests commented on how perfect the ceremony was – they loved the personal stories and humor that she injected. We couldn’t have done it better if we wrote it ourselves. Thanks again! -
User2253212 Sent on 08/03/2015Rev. Cathleen is so incredible. She is so patient, flexible and accommodating to our needs. We found out ten days before our wedding that the judge we had could not preform the service. She saved the day coming in last minute to officiate over our wedding. I will never forget our her words were so touching and caring it brought tears to everyone's eyes. Many of our guest commented how wonderful the service was. She is amazing.

User2162273 Sent on 06/03/2015Rev. Cathleen was amazing. She helped us create a perfect ceremony, and she was there to support us through the whole process. She had so many ceremony options and suggestions, and we ending up going with the Wine Box Ceremony, which turned out beautiful. We had people raving about the ceremony, saying it was one of the best ceremonies they had every been to and that they cried (happy tears) the whole time. Rev. Cathleen made us feel so comfortable and at ease, and it really helped to make our wedding day perfect. She was also so flexible, and easy to work with. We are so thankful that she was a part of our big day, and couldn't be happier with everything she did for us. We would definitely recommend her!!

User1867040 Sent on 10/16/2014Just perfect. Reverend Cathleen was everything we could have asked for in an officiant. She made us feel comfortable, was quick to reply to emails, and super flexible and accommodating. We asked if she could incorporate a scene from Friends into her words -- when Joey was a "ministainer" and talking about having, giving, sharing and receiving -- and she did it without batting an eye. She had us and our guests (especially our parents) in happy tears for the entire time.
