    Best Officiant Ever

    Mary-Elizabeth was amazing! From the beginning she was very helpful and knowledgeable. This was my first time planning a wedding and Mary-Elizabeth explained the whole process for the ceremony over the phone. She was the only officiant that made the effort to actually talk to me. We even met prior to the wedding to talk through the details. During the rehearsal and the actual ceremony her experience was a reassuring comfort. I highly recommend Mary-Elizabeth!!

    Good luck as you start your residency. Try and get some sleep now and then...😴

    Mary Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful! She has the best personality and was so easy to talk with, it was a joy getting to know each other! from day one she helped put our minds at ease about the whole process, she was wonderful to work with and helped us put together a perfect ceremony. I did not have a coordinator and she stepped in and helped direct everyone in the party from beginning to end, making the rehearsal and the day of our wedding go smoothly, I didn't have to worry about a thing! It was a blessing to have her share our special day!

    Mary-Elizabeth provided a wonderful, beautiful ceremony service. It truly will be one of the most memorable experiences of our lives, as well as our families. Mary-Elizabeth was so easy to work with during an otherwise chaotic wedding planning period. Since we got to know Mary-Elizabeth, and she got to know us, she was able to build the details of the ceremony around what we were looking for. I highly recommend the rehearsal she offers. If you're concerned about planning the details of your wedding ceremony, look no further; Mary-Elizabeth provides the help you're looking for. Her flexibility, kindness, sense of humor, and relaxed nature were very comforting in our times of stress. We loved working with her, and you will too.

    We had Mary Elizabeth as our officiant for our wedding in April and we were so happy with our decision. From the first day we talked to her, she was so helpful! We wanted to do a non-traditional ceremony, but really didn't know how to put it together. Mary Elizabeth had so many ideas and was so helpful in creating a ceremony that was unique and special to us. She was flexible and easy to get a hold of, which is so great when you're planning a wedding! I definitely recommend her!

    Mary-Elizabeth is outstanding. Words can't describe the level of professionalism and perfection that she is able to achieve. She has made my husband and I's wedding an event to remember as she was able to make us feel special and make our words come to life. There wasn't a dry eye in the room and I forever grateful for her. Thank you, Mary-Elizabeth!

    Mary Elizabeth was a perfect fit for officiating our wedding. She took the time to get to know me and my husband, and really tailored the ceremony to reflect our personalities and our relationship. My husband and I had dated since high school, and met during a game of Duck Duck Goose when we were younger. She found a great reading and included love “tapping you on the head” in our service, which was a very special moment for us. She made the experience truly special, from our first meeting to the rehearsal to the ceremony itself. Mary Elizabeth has so many great ideas, and is able to shape the ceremony to be as formal or informal and as religious or non-religious as you’d like. The vows she suggested for us were all wonderful, and she was able to settle my husband with his nerves while he was delivering them! She brought a great sense of humor to our ceremony, and had everyone (including us) constantly switching from tears from joy and tears from laughter. I highly recommend Mary Elizabeth, and we are so lucky to have found her.

    Mary-Elizabeth was a pleasure to work with. She was very responsive and answered all my questions right away! We met up prior to the big day to go over some things that I was never even aware of. She was very assertive- which we liked because it's hard to get so many people to listen at once. She accommodated all of our requests and was VERY professional. Even after the wedding I emailed her and she responded right away with a response. She kept everything flowing and made sure we started and ended within our time frame. I would definitely recommend Mary-Elizabeth to officiant your wedding!

    Unique Wedding Ceremonies's reply:

    Thanks so much Brittany for entrusting me with such an important part of your day. It was a pleasure working with you and Jorden. You and your families and friends were gracious and welcoming which made my job so much easier.
    Best of luck in the future.
    Warm regards,
    Mary-Elizabeth

    Mary Elizabeth was exceptional in every way I needed. She has the ability to connect with you on your first meeting and not forget a word! I almost don't have the words to describe how great she is. Each ceremony she performs is given 100%. This is obvious to me now. Our ceremony was perfect!!!!

    Unique Wedding Ceremonies's reply:

    Rose, thank you so much for the privilege of being part of your ceremony. It became clear to me when we met that you and Kevin were a special couple. When we realized our mutual friends and you included me in your reception it topped off an already wonderful experience.
    Best of luck in the future and take good care,
    Mary-Elizabeth

    Mary Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful to work with! She responded to all of our inquiries quickly and on we were able to book her on short notice as well (this was after an ex-friend was supposed to marry us and cancelled on us a week before the wedding). She listened to what we wanted for our ceremony and also provided us with vow and ring exchange options if we chose to use them. Mary Elizabeth helped us with our rehearsal, which allowed the ceremony to run nice and smooth a couple of days later. The ceremony was sweet and personalized for us, everyone who was there greatly enjoyed it, and so did we of course! :D I would recommend her to anyone looking to get married.

    My husband, Kirk, and I wanted to do something different for our wedding than the traditional ceremony. We found the “different” we were looking for in Mary-Elizabeth.

    Instead of conventional, we went with a very unique and personalized ceremony. Mary-Elizabeth carefully crafted our ceremony to fit us. Not only was it fun, it also brought tears to our eyes and made us laugh. And above all else, our guests are still talking about how amazing it was!

    Mary-Elizabeth took the time to help us choose ceremony pieces that fit the wedding we were looking for. For example, my husband’s last name is Miller, and my maiden name is Beers, so instead of a unity candle or a sand ceremony, we did a Miller mug ceremony with beer! Her creativity and passion as an officiant are undeniable. Mary-Elizabeth, we can’t thank you enough for making our wedding ceremony one of the best experiences of our lives!

    Unique Wedding Ceremonies's reply:

    Besides being one of the most beautiful weddings I have been part of, your obvious love for one another made it even more meaningful.
    I mention your ‘unity’ ceremony to most couples I meet when they ask what their options are. Unique is the one word that stands out as a description for your wedding.
    Thanks for allowing me the privilege of serving as your officiant.
    Warmest regards,
    Mary-Elizabeth

    Mary Elizabeth created a beautiful wedding ceremony for us and delivered it wonderfully! She understood all my needs and performed it exactly the way we wanted. She was very patient and friendly with our family and had amazing conversations with all. Could not be more happier with our officiant selection and highly recommend her.

    It's impossible to describe in words how impressed we were with Mary Elizabeth and how thrilled we are that she officiated our wedding. From our first of several meetings, to the day of the ceremony, she made us feel like the only couple in the world, listened carefully to our vision, and helped us turn our dreams into a reality. She met us several times to help ensure that we were prepared for our "big day" and her recommendations for improving our self-written vows were priceless! From her readings and blessings, to her solemn explanation of the importance of the journey we were beginning together, and the way, as a team, we must face life's challenges, we, and our guests, were in awe.

    You simply cannot go wrong by asking her to be your officiant!

    Mary Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful! I can not stress enough how great she was! First of all, it was nice to be able to do everything over the phone and email, since we were a couple from out of state and we only met her in person the day of the ceremony! The great thing was that we were very specific about being non religious, which she accommodated. It was great that she wrote us many vows to choose from and we picked from there. On the day of the ceremony, she was on time and dressed professionally with a little bit of flare with big glasses, which we loved and our guests said, "did you ask her to look a little funky with the glasses?". We also threw a little wrench in the ceremony with the rings, since my husband received one and I did not, but she went with it and it went off without a hitch!! I would recommend Mary Elizabeth to anyone that is looking for someone who is non traditional, looking for something personal, and is professional at the same time!!

    Mary Elizabeth was amazing. I can't express how lucky we were to have Mary Elizabeth be the officiant of our wedding. Her services were professional and top-notch. We wanted a simple quick ceremony but also with substance. She was able to work with us and get to know us to customize our wedding like how we wanted. Not only was she a great officiant, but she was also a great guest when we invited her to our wedding dinner. She could strike up great conversations with all of our friends and family. I would like to recommend her for anyone who is thinking about having her ceremony performed by a officiant.

    5 stars isn't enough praise for Mary-Elizabeth! She performed a beautiful, customized ceremony for my daughter and son-in-law and always kept the focus on the bride and groom. Mary-Elizabeth is friendly and professional with impeccable attention to detail. She was a delight to work with, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a customized, meaningful ceremony that reflects your personality.

    My best friend was getting married and her original officiant dropped out only a few days before the wedding. I came across her page and gave it a shot. Extremely helpful professional and all around amazing! Thank you for being so flexible.

    Mary Elizabeth was an absolute delight as our officiant for our wedding. She was so fun to work with. We loved getting to know her and sharing our story as well. With her help we created a ceremony that was both beautiful and meaningful. Planning was detailed and enjoyable and Mary Elizabeth help with the whole process - including the rehearsal. All of our families loved her and felt at ease with her the moment they met. I highly recommend Unique Wedding Ceremonies for your special day. We are so blessed to have found Mary Elizabeth.
