    So Glad We Did Not Go With A Friend!

    We are so thankful we found Sarah! We had a friend who we were going to use but out of nowhere he backed out. We were panicking but Sarah came in and saved the day. She was friendly, professional, and calming. She created a perfect ceremony and our guests were shocked to discover we had just met her since she really portrayed our story as though she was there every step of the way!

    Phenomenal Ceremony

    We knew within 15 minutes of meeting Sarah that she had to be our officiant. It was good vibes from the very start. She asked the right questions to get to know us and our relationship. We even got to know her too! She guided us when it came to picking what we wanted like readings, poems etc. And reaching out to her was never a problem. Our ceremony was absolutely beautiful and we received so many compliments from our guests, saying how ceremonies are usually boring and dull but ours was one of the best they’ve been to. She incorporated humor into our love story, which is exactly what we wanted. All in all, she nailed it. Our ceremony was everything we could’ve imagined it to be. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone and everyone. The Riveras thank you Sarah for being a phenomenal officiant & giving us the best ceremony!

    Sarah is the best!!

    We chose Sarah as our officiant after seeing her perform a ceremony at a friend’s wedding. We are so happy we decided to go with her for our ceremony. When we first met with Sarah she asked us questions about us as a couple and our relationship. I can’t believe the beautiful words she wrote with the information we gave her when we first met. She was so chill and laid back which is exactly what we wanted for our day.

    Wonderful wedding officiant!

    We could not have asked for a better officiant than Rev. Sarah Gutmann. She is a genuinely kind person that puts in the time and effort to make your wedding ceremony heartfelt and personal. She is also an extremely warm, caring, and fun person that you will be happy to have be a part of your special day. We cannot recommend Sarah highly enough!

    Best wedding officiant

    We couldn’t have found a better officiant for our wedding. Sarah is so down to earth and a genuinely kind person. She took the time to get to know us before the wedding so she could create a personalized ceremony for our special day. There was lots of tears and laughter throughout the ceremony thanks to Sarah. We highly recommend Sarah a million times over!

    The Easiest Personal Process

    Hiring an officiant is so daunting, it’s such a huge part of your Wedding day. Sarah made us comfortable to share our feelings and specifications for our Wedding ceremony. Sarah was so helpful and fun to talk to. Justine performed our ceremony and she was so sweet, professional, and kind to us on the day of our Wedding. We even had to move our ceremony inside and she managed to ease a bit of my anxiety. I loved working with both of them and will definitely recommend them in the future!

    Rev. Sarah Gutmann was the most perfect officiant we could have wished for! She was sensitive, fun, easy to communicate with, caring and very professional. She met personally with us and asked us about our courtship, current life and future dreams as a couple. She then wrote the most touching love story that had us and all our guests both in laughter and tears. The ceremony was simply magical. We highly recommend Sarah as a fantastic officiant!

    Reverend Sarah Gutmann is fantastic! We are still receiving compliments on our personalized ceremony and what a wonderful job Sarah did. During our ceremony, it began to rain and we can not thank her enough for the way she handled the wet situation. She didn’t skip a beat as the rain came down and continued the ceremony, which made for a fun and memorable day that we’ll never forget. We highly recommend Sarah as an officiant!

    We just had Sarah perform our wedding ceremony, and we agree that she is truly phenomenal. If you're looking for someone to officiate your wedding, there is no better choice than Sarah. My husband and I were residing in different states during our engagement, and Sarah took the time to arrange a video chat with us, understanding our circumstances and still wanting to offer the same opportunities she would if we were able to meet in person. From the start, she listened to our desires and knew exactly what we were looking for in an officiant. She wrote a personalized story for the two of us, and our guests were able to laugh and cry at different points through the ceremony. Sarah is charismatic, professional, sweet and super kind. We were so happy to have worked with her, and can't say enough about how fantastic she was. Thank you, Sarah!

    Sarah was absolutely amazing. We had our first chat over FaceTime and by the end of the conversation my wife and I instantly felt life we had a connection with her. Sarah is so funny, genuinely cares about making sure your Day is exactly as you want it and was always great about getting back to us. We received so many compliments at our wedding about how fantastic Sarah was. If I had to have my wedding all over again I’d instantly choose Sarah. You are in good hands!

    During our wedding planning, my now husband and I knew we wanted two things out of our ceremony: 1. Not boring, 2. (and most importantly) It needed to feel like "us". We didn't want a generic ceremony that could have been written about any couple. We needed someone who could convey our story in a sincere and beautiful way. And Sarah was absolutely that person. Since we live on the west coast, we skype interviewed our officiants to make sure we had someone who we clicked with. And what was supposed to be a 30-60 min interview turned into a 2+ hour conversation of laughter and emotions. She was just amazing from the start. While I am a very outgoing person and getting my thoughts and feelings is very easy, she was even able to work incredibly well with my introverted husband. She made us feel completely at ease, like a friend we've known for years. She then took everything we talked about and turned it into something we could share with our loved ones. The first time I read through our ceremony, I cried. And on the day of our wedding during our ceremony, I did it again. Most people only get complimented on how beautiful their ceremony was (if they get complimented at all), but so many of our guests told us how touching it was and how much of us was in every detail. She was so wonderful to work with and she is why I will always remember our ceremony as being absolutely perfect!

    Our entire wedding was a dream, but our ceremony was what made our day so special. My husband and I cried when we read our Love Story for the first time. Sarah was incredible to work with from the beginning, our Facetime chat was seriously fun! She was able to capture so much from that 1.5 hour convo. Our guests laughed, cried, but most of all, loved how personal the ceremony was. After we walked down the aisle, I looked at my husband and said "that was so much fun!" I read reviews like crazy before booking Sarah, and they were all true!! She also had us covered when we lost our copy of the marriage license needed for our honeymoon. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for an officiant, she truly made our ceremony one we will never forget!

    PERFECT! We had a perfect day for a wedding on the beach, my Bride to be looked perfectly beautiful and Sarah created the most perfect ceremony! I had spoken to two other officiants before speaking with Sarah, immediately I knew Sarah would be our choice for our very special day because of her professionalism and her enthusiasm. Sarah then met with us in person and spend a lot of time hearing our story and getting to know us both while sharing some of her wedding adventures with us. Sarah took our story and our thoughts and turned them into a beautiful wedding ceremony! When grown men are still telling you weeks after the wedding that the party was great but the ceremony was really special, you know Sarah was perfect!

    Put together a beautiful ceremony. Everything went smoothly and perfect. Always got right back to us when we reached out with questions etc. She was on time for our wedding and we couldn’t be happier with the amazing ceremony she put together.

    If you are looking for a personalized, unique and heartfelt wedding ceremony--then Sarah is the officiant for you. We got married this summer and our guests could not stop commenting on how heartfelt and personal the ceremony was. Sarah has a way of making your love story the most special there is. We felt entirely connected to her and safe in her hands. You and your guests will love her.

    Sarah was great to work with! She was super flexible and gave us so many options for our wedding ceremony. We wanted a short and sweet ceremony and it worked out great. Sarah Gutmann worked with us right up until the day, and helped put our ceremony together. One of Sarah's colleagues (Sarah M) performed our ceremony on the day and she was amazing! Such a warm, nice person and she really put us at ease. I definitely recommend hiring Sarah for your wedding or event, you wont be disappointed!

    Every single person who attended my wedding said it was, by far, the best ceremony they ever attended. The guests were engaged, Sarah made them laugh and cry and feel part of it. She made my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable. My biggest issues with weddings are that they are never personal. Sarah really made the ceremony about us as people and I will never forget it.
