    Wedding Officiant

    What can I say. Trish was absolutely fantastic. She is extremely organized and helpful every step of the way. She tells you how to apply for your marriage license and gives you the information you need to apply. She offers probably close to 75 pages of ceremony options you can utilize or just to help you craft your own unique ceremony. We had multiple phone calls with Trish along the way of planning to ensure that we had our ceremony crafted just the way we wanted. She is so friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout the planning process and day of. Our ceremony was beautiful and Trish did a fantastic job officiating our wedding.

    Trish was amazing!

    Trish was amazing. She was so wonderful to work with. She is so organized and her process is so easy. Over all of our meetings I felt I knew Trish and she knew us very well. We got so many compliments how awesome of a job she did from our guests. She made the ceremony our style which was huge for us. She helped guided not only us but our wedding party as well. She knows what she's doing and it shows. Would recommend her to anyone. She is the best!!

    Absolutely Amazing!!!

    Trish was amazing and made our ceremony extremely special by being able to customize it any way we wanted. She helped us through every step of the way and answered all questions we had. The phone calls that we scheduled with her made it easy to make our ceremony “us”. It wasn’t your typical cookie cutter ceremony thanks to all the options that she provided for every section that we could include in our wedding and helped take the stress away from our nerves the day of the wedding!

    Wonderful experience

    10/10 would recommend to anyone!! We had a phone call with her monthly for a few months to create our ceremony script and she was always available to answer questions or change things around. She was willing to work with all of our ideas and was so kind. She did a great job running the rehearsal and we got so many complements from guests about how great they thought she was.

    Amazing Experience

    Trish was referred to us by a coworker of mine who gave her nothing but rave reviews! From our first reach out she was responsive, helpful, enthusiastic, and patient with us as we worked through the process of planning for the ceremony and wedding in general. Through every conversation we were reassured that Trish was invested in our day being everything we wanted and that she would help ensure that things went smoothly. The resources she provided for getting the marriage license and putting together the ceremony were so helpful. On the day we both felt so at ease knowing Trish had everything handled. She really ensured that the most important part of our day went off without any issues. We could not recommend her enough!

    Everything we needed and more

    Trish did an amazing job with our wedding! She kept us on top of our game every step of the way and made sure none of the little details fell through the cracks. We actually saw her at a friends wedding and thought she did an amazing job so we asked our friend for her contact info. We were also thankful that she was willing to officiate a gay marriage because nowadays you just don’t know. She really was everything we could have asked for in an officiant. 5 stars, 100% would recommend 😊

    Everything we could have asked for and more!

    Due to circumstances beyond our control my husband and I decided to get married with very short notice. We had three weeks to plan everything. Trish was AMAZING! She got us all of the information we needed and materials for the ceremony, at lightening speed. We were able to choose every paragraph of the ceremony and completely customize it, and parts of it we wrote our selves. Nothing about it was generic. I am absolutely confident our ceremony will never be duplicated. And to top it all off, Trish agreed to having our wedding outside. In February. In Wisconsin. It was cold and sunny and snowy and absolutely perfect.

    We can’t thank you enough Trish! We enjoyed every minute with you & feel so blessed. Thanks for helping to make our special day so beautiful!!!

    Absolutely Amazing

    Trish was recommended to us by our wedding venue, which we knew that she had to be good if she was recommended by them. Little did we know how good she actually was. We had decided to book with Trish a little over a year before our wedding. Each month we had a meeting with her to go over our ceremony. Each meeting not only did Trish talk to us about our ceremony, but she would also check-in with us to see how we were doing with the rest of our wedding planning and life in general. I looked forward to our monthly chats. When we first began working with Trish, she had given us a whole book of different readings, vows, unity ceremony ideas, and more to choose from. Each monthly chat she would give us homework to do which was nice for me to know what we had to get done. By the end, we had a completely unique ceremony that no one else in the world would have. At our dress rehearsal I was freaking out a little, but by the end of it she had made all my nerves disappear. She did an amazing job the day of our wedding! We had so many compliments from our guests that they loved our ceremony. We truly enjoyed every minute of working with Trish! We would recommend her 1000 times over!

    You Will Never Stress When You Have Trish

    We were so lucky to have Trish as our officiant and honestly couldn't have asked for anyone better to go thorough this whole process with. Trish is so friendly and organized and has several readings, vows, ceremony ideas, etc so you are are truly able to piece together the perfect ceremony for you are your partner. My husband and I did not want to write our own vows because it can be overwhelming trying to find the right words to say so it was great to have so many different options and find what worked best for us. All my phone calls with Trish were always so positive and supportive; I felt like we accomplished something each time we talked which is an amazing feeling especially in the midst of so much wedding planning, its so nice to know you don't have to stress about the ceremony because you trust Trish. Trish did such a great job of going with the flow at the rehearsal and the wedding especially with some last minute changes and quite a large wedding party. : ) We received so many compliments from our guests about Trish and how beautiful our ceremony was and we just couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!

    An Officiant and so much more!

    We were recommended to go through Trish from our venue (The Fields Reserve) After reading several other reviews we had no doubt in our minds she would do a wonderful job. Trish does an amazing job of getting to know you as an individual and makes sure she puts together the perfect wedding ceremony that not only represents you as a couple but still keeps the legality of everything in check. We planned our Wisconsin wedding while still living in Iowa, so it was basically a destination wedding for us, and from the first phone call to the last Trish made the process extremely easy. As if this wasn't enough, on the day of the wedding Trish did an amazing job of making small changes on the fly, and recognizing things that we would have never thought of.

    Best Officiant

    Where to begin with Trish. She made our day so perfect. I couldn't have asked for anyone better to officiate our wedding this year. She made everything so smooth from the moment we booked with her, even during a challenging year. She really got to know my husband and I as a couple to make the ceremony perfect. If it wasn't for Trish our ceremony would've been a mess! She is very passionate in her work and it shows! I highly recommend her, she is worth every penny!!

    Trish was amazing she was so helpful and friendly throughout the whole wedding planning experience. We even had to reschedule a year due to the pandemic but Trish was completely understanding and only made things easier for us. She helped with everything especially finalizing our vows and what we wanted at our ceremony. Our wedding was perfect and Trish helped make our wedding amazing!! I highly recommend Sacred Moments!

    Best Officiant!

    I'm so happy we chose Trish as our officiant. She went out of her way to help us plan our wedding day, giving us ideas and suggestions along the way (since we didn't know anything about planning a wedding). She made a sincere effort to get to know us so she could provide the most personal ceremony possible. She was flexible and supportive when we switched our wedding date. Our ceremony was seamless and she lightened the mood right as the nerves were kicking in for my husband and I. She was perfect. Choose Trish, you won't be disappointed!!

    Seamless and Deeply Meaningful

    It was an absolute pleasure to work with Trish in the many months leading up to our wedding! In what was often a stressful time overloaded with decision-making and logistics, we always looked forward to our phone calls with Trish because her confidence and joy for the important part of the day (the “getting married” bit…) is contagious. She made our rehearsal was smooth and calming--a remarkable feat for two anxious brides in the welcoming guests from the four corners of the earth!--and by the time we were at the altar actually saying our vows and putting on rings, Trish felt like an old friend. If you’re looking for a ceremony that feels authentic, solemn, joyful, and utterly effortless, look no further than Trish Kalhagen.

    Excellent job!

    Trish was great. Her assistance in planning the ceremony was so appreciated since I had not done this before. Even though my wedding was only us and our witnesses, Trish made it feel very personal and special. I am so glad we went with her services rather than just getting married at the courthouse! Once we are able to have friends and family celebrate with us, we will definitely be using her services again to do a vow renewal in front of those we love. Thanks again, Trish. It was more than I expected and it was beautiful!

    Thank you Trish for everything you did for Nick and I. You were so easy to work with and so accommodating when we had to switch around our wedding due to Covid. You made the ceremony planning a breeze! Thank you again!

    Trish was the best to work with! She helped walk me through the whole planning process! She made it so easy and was so kind and always checked in with me even if there weren’t new things to plan. I have gotten many comments on how beautiful the ceremony was!

    more than just an officiant

    Trish is a gift from god. She helped us to navigate so much more than trying to plan the perfect ceremony. When our original venue suddenly claimed bankruptcy and stole thousands from us, it was Trish who called us and immediately started helping us find a new place, to then comforting us when we again had to reschedule the wedding with COIVD. She is always available to talk and sets up monthly update sessions that were so helpful in keeping us on track with ceremony planning. Her binder full of examples and templates was such a valuable tool in knowing where to start and helped us to fall in love with every single part of our ceremony. Even when my mother in law wanted to add something to our ceremony 48 hours before the wedding, Trish handled it seamlessly and made it a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony. When we were nervous during the ceremony she was there to remind us to `breathe, relax, and enjoy it. When you choose Trish as your officiant, you are also getting a friend, mentor, and wedding expert as well.

    Best day of our lives!

    Working with Trish was an absolute pleasure from the very beginning. We had multiple phone conversations and check-ins before the big day and she helped us put together a beautiful and seamless ceremony that was very personal and memorable. The advice she offered along the way helped ease some of the anxieties I had about the event. You won’t be disappointed if you choose her as your officiant. Thank You, Trish!
