    Claire is the absolute greatest!

    Claire was nothing short of wonderful to work with as our wedding officiant. We connected immediately with her, and she was professional, organized and enthusiastic about creating a special ceremony for our wedding day. She is experienced and goes above and beyond, as well as being one of the most personable and genuine people we've ever met!

    Best Officiant in Maine

    Claire officiated my wife and I's wedding and she was such a delight to work with. She wrote us the perfect ceremony and officiated it better than we could have hoped. She was such a warm, friendly presence for every part of it and made sure everything went so smoothly for us. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant and I would highly recommend Claire to anyone and everyone.

    Claire brought sunshine and warmth to our wedding day

    To be honest, I was overtaken with emotion seeing my soulmate eager to commit to a lifetime with me, and I ugly-cried during the entire ceremony. Despite my tears, Claire managed to keep the vibe light and warm with her exceptional delivery.

    Neither my husband nor I had any clue what we wanted in a ceremony, and she put forward suggestions that felt tailor-made for our personalities and relationship story. Her ability to balance emotion with humor made our wedding ceremony truly special. She even made sure to include my stepson! She was incredibly professional and flexible when we threw last-minute changes at her (he decided he didn't want to read 15 minutes before the ceremony).

    If you are getting married in Maine and you do not choose to have Savoir Claire officiate your ceremony, you are doing it wrong! I suggest booking right away.

    Perfect choice! We love Claire!

    It was an absolute delight to work with Claire! In addition to being easy to communicate with, she just exudes enthusiasm and genuine support. The ceremony was beautifully written and fit our setting perfectly. She encouraged feedback, but her first draft was so perfect we left it nearly untouched. You will not find an officiant who cares more about their couples than Claire!

    Beyond Perfection!

    I can't put into words how WONDERFUL our 40th renewal ceremony was; thanks to Claire! She is the BEST! We would recommend her to anyone for any event! From the very beginning, she makes you feel so comfortable! She is truly a professional, yet feels like we will now be life long friends! We seriously can't imagine it with someone else. Love her and how she listened! We were going to do our own vows, but her suggestions were better! It was AMAZING how she seemed to just "know" us! She is sweet (and funny) and delivered PERFECTION+ for this very special occasion!
    Thank you for everything Claire! ❤️ Lynn Hackl

    Where to even start...

    My now husband and I waited until the last minute to book our officiant, we weren't exactly sure what we wanted... so we reached out to a few officiants and Claire responded and one of her clients just cancelled and she now had our date available. Meant to be! We chatted with her over zoom and she stole our hearts, we booked her right away. Claire was absolutely amazing, I cannot say enough good things about her. Claire's energy is so positive and it just makes you want to be around her! Every person we have talked to after our wedding asked who our officiant was and how we found her - everyone just raved about how amazing Claire was and everyone loved her! During the ceremony, Claire and my husband just fed off of each other in such an organic and refreshing way, she made it such a magical experience for the both of us. I couldn't imagine a better person to marry us. She saged guests as they walked in and that's exactly what we envisioned for our day, she showed up for us fully and in such a loving way that she felt like family. Weeks after our wedding, we are still hearing from family and friends about how amazing Claire was - even on the rehearsal dinner night everyone couldn't get enough of her. If Claire is available for your wedding date, I promise you will not regret booking her! When we renew our vows in the future, we will be calling Claire to see if she can be there with us! Thank you, Claire for being such an incredible and genuine soul - we love you!!

    Claire Is The Only Choice

    Claire married us this fall and we can't imagine having gone with any other officiant. When you've never been married, you quickly realize you have no idea what you're supposed to do besides say, "I do." Thankfully Claire was there to answer all of our questions and guide us through ever step of the ceremony. We loved meeting with Claire via Zoom to get to know each other because it reassured us we had picked the right person. Not to mention she was locked and loaded with interactive ideas to make the wedding more than just an officiant speaking while everyone listens. The poems and readings she suggested for us were also very fitting. And the way Claire interacted with everyone at the wedding was just icing on the wedding cake! We're so happy we made the right choice by going with Claire.

    Fall outdoor wedding

    Claire officiated our wedding in October 2022. Her uplifting spirit is what captivated my husband and I from the start! She was timely, organized, thoughtful and open-minded to our preferences. We loved the energetic and heartfelt messages that she conveyed on our wedding day; Claire most definitely helped put together our ideal ceremony!

    The Officiant that is truly wholeheartedly invested in your Love journey / Ceremony

    We put our ceremony as the number 1 priority for our wedding. Claire meticulously and energetically guided us through the whole process from prompts to get us inspired and thinking, to creating time and space for us to generate our own vows, as well as exploring what elements we believe suits our style, perspective of our cultures that go into our ceremony. Our ceremony ended up being a wedding that our guests kept on saying "It was so dreamily beautiful, we have never witnessed anything like it." Modern brides and grooms may be carried away with reception planning and rush trough the ceremony. But with Claire, we really encourage all couples to take decent time to think about why we are getting married, how do we want to announce it and how do we want our guests to be a part of it. The ceremony is why we are all here after all. Our full hearted thanks to Claire, and her energy / love is truly unmatched. Many guests thought she was our life-long friend from childhood.

    Beyond a dream working with Claire

    My husband and I got married September 24th and Claire was our officiant. It’s safe to say Claire was one of our easiest decisions as a couple to make for our special day. When we first met with Claire it was just natural. She was friendly, compassionate, and a blast to work with throughout our life whole experience. Still to date our guests rave about how wonderful our ceremony went with Claire by our side! We would recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, upbeat, personable officiant. Thank you for everything!

    A dream come true

    What an incredible experience. Not only did Claire prepare a beautiful ceremony for us, but she made it fun and relaxing! Imagine that! Just chilling out on your wedding day. We were in such good hands, we never felt anxious or unsure about a thing. If I could get married again, I’d ask Claire to officiate.

    Claire did an amazing job with our wedding. She has a fantastic attitude and open mind when working with couples. Additionally, she is easy to work with and let us lead the process with her support. We absolutely recommend Claire to anyone getting married!

    Perfect Connection

    We first met Claire through The Knot. There was something about her profile that really spoke to me, and she was funny. Dale and I Zoomed with her; we all hit it off and created a plan. A plan that we changed about three weeks before (and note that none of this was long-ago planned....likely less than two months from meeting Claire to getting married! We shifted the location and hoped Claire could shift the time up just a titch. Which she was so flexible in doing. When we hugged her when she walked it, it felt like she was family. She was heaven sent to marry us! The sunset, the harvest moon all contributed to just a beautiful ceremony on the ocean at Old Orchard Beach. And Claire beamed through it all, just as Dale and I are still beaming today. She promises to see how we are doing up ahead; I believe her. We cannot wait to share our comings and goings with her. She IS family.

    Absolutely amazing!

    Claire is such a wonderful Woman! My hubby and I didn’t know what to expect when it came to a wedding ceremony but Claire did such a great job. Our families loved her and had us all laughing the entire time! Thank you again Claire for being part of our wedding day!

    Best in the business

    Working with Claire was an amazing experience. She last minute saved our wedding day since our Reverend informed us 3 days before the wedding that he was sick and would not be able to come.
    She took the time to get to know us and welcomed us with open arms that you would find from family or a close friend. The ceremony she wrote was both heart-warming and also allowed areas to laugh. I am not just saying this cause it was my wedding but she was by far best Officiant I have ever seen. Trust me you will not be disappointed in hiring her!

    We love Claire!

    We simply cannot recommend Claire enough. She was always responsive, listened to us, asked us great questions, and kept us on track to make sure everything was ready to go exactly how we wanted it on the day of our wedding. She helped us create a ceremony that felt like it was truly us, and we couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. During the ceremony, Claire is a pro at balancing humor and lightheartedness with the reverence and importance of the occasion. She helped us feel at ease and created a great rapport with our guests--we had friends and family who told us it was the best ceremony they'd seen and wanted Claire to stay and party with them at the reception. Claire is an absolute delight and you will not regret booking her!

    Claire was amazing. Everything you could ask for in a Wedding Officiant.

    Claire is an amazing person and an amazing officiant.
    She brings such happiness and positive energy to every interaction you have with her.
    Claire is timely in responding to calls, emails and texts when you have questions or need to communicate.
    We wanted a very simple, private wedding ceremony and Claire delivered perfectly to our expectations.
    She helped us word or vows and presented perfect ideas for readings at our ceremony.
    She truly adapts to each couples unique style and needs for their wedding.
    I could not have asked for a better wedding Officiant.

    Absolutely Incredible. Savior Claire is a literal Angel!

    My husband and I could not have had a more perfect officiant for our wedding. Claire is truly a beam of shining light. Her genuine personality captured the attention of all our friends and family who attended our wedding.

    I have been a wedding photographer for 7+ years, so needless to say I have been to A LOT of weddings. I first met Claire in 2018 when she officiated a wedding I was photographing for. From that day forward, i knew whenever it was my time to get married, she would be the one that I called. Jump to 2020 and I got engaged and calling her was the top of my to-do list.

    Claire is everything you want a person to be: loving, caring, passionate, patient, empathetic… the list goes on and on. One thing I love most about Claire is that she brings a certain kind of calmness to the room. She makes everyone feel at ease and also makes everyone feel endless love and joy,

    I HIGHLY recommend Savior Claire to be your wedding officiant.

    Claire is simply the best!

    My soon to be wife tasked me with finding an officiant for our wedding. Being a typical gentleman, I procrastinated until September for our November wedding. I came across Claire’s profile on wedding wire and was immediately impressed with her excellent feedback, I reached out. Claire was the first vendor to respond and we exchanged emails a few times that day. We were blessed that Claire had our date open and immediately put our minds (my wife’s mind) at ease. We had a few meet and greets prior to the wedding, each meeting felt like a long lost friend who truly cared about our special day sharing laughs and stories. Fast forward to wedding day, Claire was able to keep 7 groomsmen tame for about an hour and 45 minutes as hair and make up took a little longer than excepted. Due to our later start time for the ceremony, Claire did a fantastic job ad libbing in front of 160 of our attendants to put everyone’s mind at ease that the bride was in fact still coming. We could not envision our wedding without Claire and will be forever grateful! We now consider Claire a friend and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a caring and professional officiant.
    Love,
    AJ & Alicia

    We couldn’t of asked for a better person to be there for us on our day! She was so wonderful, sweet, fun and positive! She answered all of our questions in a timely and kind manner and was better then we could of hoped! From the moment we met her we knew we were in good hands and was simply a joy to have around from the start!

    100% recommend! Claire is fun and inventive!

    Claire was absolutely amazing! She is so friendly, lively, and funny. Claire was able to create a beautiful and unique ceremony for us on our special day. She made the process easy by having great resources and options to choose from, by giving us deadlines on the parts we wanted to make our own, by checking in with us to make sure everything was as it should be, and by helping us individually with our vows. She always had the best ideas! On the day of the event she brought her amazing personality and made everyone feel like she was a long time friend of the family. We absolutely recommend Claire for your event! We feel like we’ve made a lifetime friend and look forward to keep in contact.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    We saw Claire officiate our friends' wedding in 2018 and instantly knew that we had to hire her! It was the best wedding ceremony we had ever attended, and our ceremony was no different. From start to finish, Claire was wonderful, transparent and communicative throughout the entire process. She is a kind person who truly cares about her couples and does everything in her power to make your day special. She worked hard to help us build a thoughtful ceremony, and we received many compliments from our guests. Claire stuck with us for 2+ years through the pandemic, a change of venue and a change of date. She also has a wonderful sense of humor that really helped keep things light through all of the ups and downs of pandemic wedding planning. We highly recommend Claire to any couple looking for an amazing ceremony!

    Heartfelt Genuine

    I waited until the very last second almost to hire an officiant for our wedding (big no no) Claire didn't make me feel bad about that, she knew how much having a professional officiant was to me for our wedding and wanted to help. She was flexible, and so optimistic. She literally saved our day! Our ceremony was not cookie cutter, she read beautiful poems, and readings, and gave us the most perfect modern intimate ceremony. Look no further for your officiant, Claire is right for you!!

    We’re very happy we chose Claire!

    My partner and I really wanted to make sure we chose the best possible officiant and we’re very glad we met Claire. She was very professional, understanding, and thoughtful throughout the year. At the wedding, her stage presence and energy were incredible - guests kept mentioning to us how nice the ceremony was which is a true testament to Claire’s work and the energy she brings.

    We highly recommend working with her!
