    Spiritual Timelessness

    Victoria provided and created an unbelievably beautiful ceremony for us on our special day. We wanted something extremely simple and quick, and Victoria provided that, but also went so far beyond anything we could have imagined. Victoria took some brief information from us and wove a timeless and beautiful poem of our love, tying it together with a ceremony that was spiritually infinite and boundless in love and peace. The whole experience was kismet, and we are eternally grateful for Victoria’s time, effort and care. Thank you so much Victoria!!!!

    One word: Incredible!

    I cannot say enough good things about Victoria. She is passionate about what she does. We knew we were in the right hands from our first conversation with her. We had numerous conversations with her where she truly got to know us as a couple. The ceremony she put on was incredible. Everyone raved about how light hearted and personal it was. We laughed and cried. The most special touch were the love letters she had us write to one another that she had waiting on our rooms to read at the end of the night. It was the most perfect ending to the night and one we will never ever forget. We love you Victoria!

    Victoria O. Milne, Albany - Adirondack Wedding Officiant's reply:

    Thank you so much for choosing me as your officiant. I absolutely loved learning about the two of you as individuals and a couple. I was honored to write your love story and loved watching the interactions and responses the two of you and your loved had during the ceremony. Getting to know you both made me certain this love story will have no end. ❤️❤️

    Truly Blessed Experience

    I couldn't have imagined when looking for an officiant that a complete stranger could become such an integral part of our union in a matter of months. Victoria is kind, patient, understanding and gave us a ceremony that represented our love in the best way possible. Through all the ups and downs of the planning process, she was a constant source or reassurance that all that mattered was going into the start of our marriage with the right intentions and open hearts. All of our guests were so impressed with her and we are too. She will forever be in our hearts and minds and we look forward to sharing the continued maturity of our relationship with her.

    Victoria O. Milne, Albany - Adirondack Wedding Officiant's reply:

    Thank you for choosing me to tell your love story! From our first meeting I witnessed how rare and beautiful your relationship is and found great pleasure planning your wedding day with you. Watching as you tenderly respected each other and gave great thought to what would be most meaningful elements for the two of you was a super delight.
    On your rehearsal evening I felt joyful to meet the loved ones you told me so much about. They were every bit as awesome as you said. What a great circle of love to grow as husband and wife in!
    ❤️❤️❤️❤️Can't wait to watch your future unfold -xoxo.

    Excellent!

    The day was just beautiful and even though our original spot fell through, Victoria was more than willing to meet with us at our new one. Her ceremony was perfect and I loved how she incorporated our ideas into the process. I would absolutely recommend her services to others. On top of everything, she took care of the paperwork for us, removing an item from our enormous wedding to-do list. I am very appreciative for her service and hope she continues to help any looking for a beautiful wedding day.

    You won't be disappointed by hiring her !!! Highly Recommend

    Vitoria told our story and I can't imagine anyone telling it or doing it justice the way she did. It was authentic, she really captured our journey together and surprised us with a sweet gesture that was so fitting for the unity portion of our ceremony! She took the time to get to know us, and also helped us along the journey with how the day would go. Our ceremony was beautiful, and I have never attended a wedding where an officiant provided a personalized ceremony for the couple. I feel so honored to have had the opportunity to be married by Victoria. She is professional, easy to work with, compassionate, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and kind. We highly recommend her!

    So personal and special, thank you!!

    Victoria was the best person I could imagine to officiate our wedding. From the very beginning, she made us so comfortable and really got to know us. She made the process fun and special as we got ready for the big day! She took so much of the pressure off our planning and made it enjoyable every step of the way. In getting to know us, our love story, what's important to us, and our spirituality, Victoria made sure that our ceremony was so personal and special. She added so many sweet touches. It was everything we could've dreamed of, and we'll remember it for a lifetime.

    Beautiful Ceremony!

    Coming from different religious backgrounds, we thought that finding a wedding officiant was going to be challenging. Victoria was willing to work with us to find a middle ground and customize a ceremony that was meaningful to both of us.

    She was able to keep the focus on our story, while still incorporating a traditional religious element, without being overbearing. Our family and friends kept remarking at how the ceremony was unique to us.

    She truly takes the time to get to know your love story and is there to help every step of the way, including making sure you understand the process of obtaining your marriage license so you are not surprised at the last minute.

    Thank you Victoria!

    Professional & Personal!

    Victoria took the time to really get to know my husband and I and why we wanted to get married. Every little part of our ceremony showed just how much time and dedication that Victoria puts into her work. We couldn't have asked for a more personal and beautiful ceremony. Even though Victoria couldn't perform the ceremony herself due to another wedding on the same day, Alexandria did an amazing filling in! We appreciate them both so much!

    Victoria O. Milne, Albany - Adirondack Wedding Officiant's reply:

    Thank you so much, Jackie! My Wedding Partner, Alexandria, and I were both so honored to be part of your day. We look forward to your exciting future in marriage.

    Victoria made our dream ceremony a reality

    My partner and I wanted to elope, and we hoped to do it at home. Victoria was very sweet, engaged, and responsive and helped create a ceremony that spoke to us personally. If you're looking for a ceremony that is unique and doesn't follow traditional vows and readings, I highly recommend Victoria. She is willing to fit your special day to suit your needs. A+ experience!

    Intimate, personal and memorable

    Our wedding ceremony was small and it was everything I could of wished for. Alexandria made it ours, personal and intimate. She takes the time to know who you are. What are your likes and dislikes, how you met and what you love about each other. Everything she has learned about you as a couple are incorporated into your ceremony.
    She offers to renew your vows with you on your anniversary. She doesn't forget about you after the ceremony is over.
    My Husband and I would recommend her to everyone that is planning a ceremony.

    Bill and Gail Pease

    You could not ask for a better officiant for your ceremony. She is with you every step of the way.

    We loved our ceremony!

    Victoria and her daughter Alexandria were a pleasure to work with throughout our wedding prep process. They took the time to get to know us and provided a thoughtful, personalized ceremony that we loved! Some of our guests asked us if we had known Victoria our whole lives because she knew so much about us and our story. Every detail was perfect! They also accommodated us without issue when we delayed our wedding one year due to COVID.

    Excellent Elopement Ceremony

    After cancelling our large wedding due to COVID, we found Victoria online from her stellar reviews on Wedding Wire. We asked her to perform a small wedding ceremony for us and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Victoria took the time to get to know us and spoke as though we'd known her forever. The ceremony was everything we could have asked for. She helped us find a perfect location for the wedding and kept in contact throughout our planning process. She was also able to provide the witnesses we needed. We will continue to sing her praises and recommend her to everyone we know looking for an officiant.

    Victoria helped us plan and then plan again.. and again… all with a smile on her face and warmth in her ❤️

    Perfect Fall Ceremony

    Our ceremony was just us the bride and groom and our parents. It was perfect and mall and intimate. Victoria did just a nice job making it so personal and that much more special and meaningful. She was so helpful and responsive every step of the way. The rose exchange was such a nice surprise and sweet touch. She made our special day better than I could have even imagined. I am so thankful she said yes to marrying us on such short notice. She made it so sweet and special it brought tears to everyone’s eyes. I highly recommend her!!!

    Exceeded Our Expectations!

    Victoria and Alexandria exceeded our expectations for our wedding ceremony! It was personal, intimate, and absolutely beautiful. They took the time to get to know us and asked all the right questions to capture the essence of who we are as a couple. No detail was overlooked from the vows, to the unity element, to the roses and love letters left in our hotel room. They were very accommodating every step of the way. We cannot wait to celebrate again on our first anniversary and renew our vows with Victoria and Alexandria!

    An Intimate, Magical Memory

    Victoria really took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple. We were able to keep in close contact through texts and emails throughout the weeks leading up to our ceremony. She offered us many helpful suggestions about the actual ceremony and things to do both before and after the wedding day, as well as finding us the perfect spot to say our "I do's". Victoria used the letters my spouse and I wrote to each other and blended our stories into beautiful wedding vows that we will cherish forever. After the ceremony, she took our love letters and our vows had them placed in our hotel room so we could come back later and relive the special moments. Alex took wonderful pictures of us during the ceremony that captured all the joy of the event. Our wedding was special, intimate, and magical, thanks to Victoria and Alex.

    Fairytale wedding

    Victoria made our special wedding day worth every word she spoke. She did her due diligence and made sure to stay in contact with us and learned myself and my wife’s history together. She used that as a platform for our ceremony and really brought to life our union. We are very grateful to have had Victoria officiate our wedding. She was exactly what we were expecting and she definitely delivered. I feel like not only did I find a reliable and awesome person to do the job, but also a friend. We could not have ask for a better service than the one Victoria made. Her ideas and advice were monumental in our decision making. We highly recommend her for your wedding, you won’t regret it.

    Love and Flexibility During a Pandemic

    We originally hired Victoria for our June 2020 wedding in the Lake George area of NY. When COVID-19 struck, we decided in March that we would postpone the wedding to the following year. Victoria supported our decision and moved mountains to make sure she could accommodate our 2021 date. But as the months went on we couldn't wait any longer, so we decided to have a mini-ceremony. Victoria and Team not only drove the 5 hours to officiate our mini-mony on my now grandmother-in-law's side lawn, she made the whole experience flow with practiced grace and ease. In spite of rainy skies and a masked ceremony, Victoria made the ceremony wonderful: special, meaningful, and full of love. She personalized our vows based on a few phone calls and a questionnaire, and we could not have been happier. We are so thrilled that we get to work with her again to plan our big ceremony next summer - she has an incredible knack for making everyone feel the solemnity and joy of the experience while also providing deeply personal touches.

    Beautiful and Thoughtful Wedding Officiant

    My husband and I found Victoria online when looking for an officiant to marry us on our wedding day, June 17th 2023 at the Lodge on Echo Lake in Warrensburg, NY. After our first phone call with Victoria we knew we wanted to ask her to be our officiant! Victoria is kind, professional, caring, and creative. She took the time and thoughtfulness to help us create the wedding ceremony of our dreams as well as help us become stronger as a couple in the process. Leading up to our special day we would text and have calls to review ideas, we always felt like we could ask Victoria questions and always received a helpful response back. We are thankful for the support we received throughout the wedding planning, and we look forward to keeping in touch with Victoria. We are so happy and thankful that she was a part of our day!
