Danica Sent on 11/06/2023Bettina is the officiant you MUST work with!
If you’re thinking of working with Bettina to officiate your ceremony, do not hesitate! I met with four potential individuals, and when I spoke with Bettina, I immediately knew she was the person I was looking for. From her warm demeanor to remembering details I had shared, her beautiful voice, and her infectious laugh, I could imagine her marrying us. She guided us through creating a meaningful ceremony in the easiest way imaginable. Our ceremony felt personable, romantic, and lighthearted while taking our guests through our love story. There was laughter and tears by all.
We were lucky enough to have Bettina join our rehearsal dinner to help us celebrate and practice, and our family and friends fell in love with her as well. Many people told us they had a girl crush on her. She was a rockstar. How amazing she was. The compliments are still rolling in a month later. Every guest she interacted with left with a memorable impression. She manages to make everyone feel unique and celebrated. Bettina truly makes wedding magic. I cannot recommend her highly enough. If you can work with her, leap at the chance. I promise you won’t regret it. We’ll hold the words she crafted for us near for the rest of our lives. -

The most wonderful celebrant!
Bettina was an absolutely exceptional celebrant. From the first time we consulted with her, she was on top of everything. She was very open about her rates and communication was a breeze! Her questionnaire and our correspondence helped us craft a beautiful and personal ceremony. Her bright and bubbly energy brought laughter, joy, and happy tears throughout our families. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant!! We would, a million times over, recommend Bettina for any special occasion! -

Tiana Sent on 11/23/2025The best ceremony ever!
Bettina was absolutely incredible. She was so warm and took the time to get to know us as a couple, and wrote the most heartfelt ceremony that needed barely any editing. She brought so much energy to our perfect day, and was able to articulate our love story so beautifully. We couldn't recommend her enough! She empowered us to have it exactly how we wanted, while also coming up with amazing ideas that made it so personal to us. Also, we both have different faiths, and Bettina was able to blend our two cultures seamlessly.Weddings by Bettina's reply:

What a night!
Bettina was amazing to work with start to finish! She was able to meet with us virtually over the course of our entire planning as we were doing a destination wedding in Charleston. Our family has had nothing but great things to say about her presence in the ceremony- she was engaging and heartfelt. We are so happy to have had Bettina be a crucial part of our wedding!Weddings by Bettina's reply:
I miss TEDDY! Thank you Lydie and Austin. I am pretty sure you are the first people to live in Seabrook NH and get married in magnificent Seabrook SC.

Best Celebrant ♡
We were having trouble finding the right officiant, but as soon as we had our first call with Bettina, we knew that she was the perfect celebrant for us. Our wedding was an interfaith union, but it was important for the bride to incorporate some jewish traditions without making it too religious. Bettina nailed it.
For us it was important that the ceremony felt personal, and we were worried that hiring a celebrant that didn't know us would be able to do a good job. We spoke with Bettina a few times and had her come over for dinner before the wedding. By the time our day arrived, it felt like she was our longtime friend. We loved her energy, her wit, her eloquence. The ceremony was beautiful and very representative of us. All our friends and family that were used to traditional religious weddings commented how special it was.

Dan F. Sent on 04/27/2022Best ever, hands down!
Dear Bettina,
As you know picking a wedding celebrant can be difficult, as it can be hard to distinguish one from another and you also really want to make the right choice and find that perfect fit. When you started our wedding ceremony, you said “welcome friends and family” and that is exactly how both Kristin and I felt while working with you—like friend or a family member.
We are writing to say thank you so very much for helping us create such a wonderful and unique wedding ceremony. We received many, many glowing compliments on how beautiful the ceremony was. Literally every guest asked who you were and how long we have known you because it was so personal and they felt like you have been in our lives for years. That is a testimony to you and the care that you put into what you do.
Words can truly not express our gratitude for making our day so special. We both feel so lucky to have had you officiate our wedding. You exceeded our expectations and we know the calls and meetings we had with you beforehand really made a difference. Not only did it give you a sense of who we are but we got to know you and see what an incredible person you are.
Your process of having both Kristin and I answer all these wonderful questions before you came up with a draft really helped to personalize the process and make it a direct reflection of who we were. You really helped bring our story and our love come to life for all those who shared in our day with us. The emotion in the room was palpable.
Working with you as our celebrant was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! If there is anything we can ever do in the future to support your business please let us know. We are happy to act as a reference for future couples to let them know about the wonderful experience we had working together. We’d love to keep in touch!
Wishing you all the best with the coming busy season!
Your ever thankful groom and bride,
Dan and KristinWeddings by Bettina's reply:

Thank you for having me in your beautiful home…I have to get that daily jeopardy calendar! ♥️♥️♥️ -

Jolene Sent on 09/23/2021Amazing Officiant
Bettina allowed my husband and I to have the most beautiful, perfect ceremony we could have ever dreamed of. From our first interaction with Bettina, it was nothing short of positive, optimistic, and so, so lovely. She has such a beautiful way with words, and better yet, her presence in a room is captivating. We had so many guests, family members, and friends ask us how we got in contact with Bettina, because she was so amazing. If you want to have the ceremony of your dreams, I could not recommend Bettina enough! -

The warmest, charismatic, professional officiant!
Bettina gave my husband and I the most beautiful, personal wedding ceremony. Literally every guest asked who she was and how long we’ve known her because it seemed like she had been in our lives for years. All of our guests said ‘SHE WAS AMAZING!’
Her charisma and warm personality hooked us from the start. We knew we didn’t even have to interview others because we got a gut feeling right away that she would do a wonderful job. She made the whole experience - from our first meeting through the official ceremony - so special and so easy for us. HIGHLY recommend, you’d be so lucky to have her officiate your big day.Weddings by Bettina's reply:
Pitch perfect day in every way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart… and now the real silver lining is we get to hang out again in September for your sister Lindsey!
Already in the final stretches so I’m really looking forward to seeing you and your family again soon…
♥️♥️♥️ -

Victoria Sent on 03/29/2020Absolutely perfect ceremony
My husband and I met with a few officiants before we met Bettina. We were really looking for someone we connected with and felt comfortable with.. Bettina's warmth made it impossible not to connect with her. She had us in her home for our first meeting where we went into a lot of details about our relationship, our families, and our life together. It was like a mini therapy session which was amazing. She was very clear about everything that would take place prior to our wedding, and sent us a questionnaire that my husband and I were to fill out independently and she would create our ceremony draft from there. She was more than willing to incorporate any religious affiliations, if any, which we didn't have but it's great to know she is accomodating for everyone. The draft she sent us was pretty much perfect and we were so thrilled to have her officiate our ceremony. On our wedding day, everything turned out perfect. Everyone laughed, cried, and enjoyed our ceremony as much as we did. Bettina, you are fabulous and we hope to meet again soon! -

Tory Sent on 12/06/2019Absolutely the best
Our ceremony was our favorite part of our wedding, and Bettina is the reason behind this!!!
Bettina told our story in the most beautiful way and helped us format our ceremony so that it was completely personal. We met with Bettina in person a few times before the wedding, and were in constant communication with her prior to the wedding. We consider Bettina a true friend and we could not recommend her more!!!!Weddings by Bettina's reply:
Awwww Tory. You are one special person to me and you know it. Thank you for these lovely words.
Only hoping that our paths may cross again sometime soon. -

Roslyn Sent on 10/30/2019We love Bettina!
Working with Bettina as our celebrant was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Coming highly recommended from our wedding planner, Bettina is not only an utmost and experienced professional who made our ceremony truly unique and personal, but also an incredibly kind and genuine individual who went above and beyond to get to know us as a couple to celebrate our love. From our very first call with her, we knew it had to be Bettina! By asking us thoughtful and deliberate questions to understand us individually and as a couple, she drafted a beautiful script that reflected our different heritages and shared values, and incorporated the message of love we wanted to share with each other and our friends and family - better than we could have otherwise shared ourselves. Following our wedding, we had so many guests tell us that it was the most touching and unique ceremony they had ever witnessed, and gave particular praise for the wonderful Bettina. Our families were also overjoyed by the celebration, and could not have imagined anything better for the two of us. Thank you, Bettina!Weddings by Bettina's reply:
Perhaps a little belated. But better late than never. Thank you for these beautiful words.
Long live your love! -

Alexandra Sent on 10/27/2019Bettina was incredible!
Bettina has a warm, positive energy, and the confidence to lead the ceremony creation process AND take charge on the wedding day by guiding your family and bridal party so that you can step back and relax! Bettina created the most beautiful, PERSONAL ceremony for my husband and I. She was there for us each step of the way and made us feel so taken care of. Our guests couldn't get over how much our ceremony just felt like US. Her upbeat presence, warm smile and genuine delivery made our ceremony absolutely perfect. She is the perfect mix of reliable/efficient/detail oriented and kind/thoughtful/warm. She was definitely one of the major highlights of our wedding day and planning process! I can't imagine having done it without her!Weddings by Bettina's reply:
Awwww, I will never forget the two of you! From the moment we met on my couch to the moment you bot said 'I do' I felt like it was the three of us, were meant to be! See you on instagram. -

Karen Sent on 06/19/2019Best celebrant ever!
Bettina is the perfect choice for a celebrant. We are so happy we chose her for our big day, she is amazing! We felt comfortable with Bettina right from our very first meeting with her. She is such a friendly and warm person. As a couple travelling from Ireland to New York for our wedding she was key in making our day as special and relaxed as it could be. She gave us amazing recommendations for anything that we asked for, from flowers to photographers to restaurants. She was so helpful and was flexible about everything.
Bettina created the most beautiful personalized ceremony for us based on information that we provided, she gave us total input and control. It was this that made our day so special and memorable. She really picked up on what was important to us as a couple, we ended up with a bespoke wedding ceremony to suit our personalities. Without Bettina we would never have written our own vows and we are so glad that we did. We could not have wished for a better ceremony.
We were really lucky to be able to use her rooftop for our ceremony, it was so private and had the most stunning views of Manhattan. We are still talking about how amazing our ceremony was, it was personal, relaxed and so romantic. Our day was prefect and it was thanks to Bettina…she honestly made our day. We cannot recommend Bettina highly enough. -

Bruna Sent on 06/09/2019The best celebrant you could find!
Our wedding day wouldn't have been as wonderful and flawless if we hadn't had her as our celebrant. Bettina was so amazing, always helping us since the beginning of our planning, and on our wedding day she was so excited for us, as if she was part of our family.
She was everything and more what we were hoping to find in a celebrant and in a friend on our special day.
We couldn't recommend her enough! -

Eric Sent on 05/25/2019Perfect personal wedding ceremony
Bettina is amazing! We were doing a small, non-traditional ceremony and we wanted it to be very personal but didn't have clear ideas about how to put it together. Bettina really helped us shape it into a coherent flow, inject it with humor and personal touches, and give it profound and personal meaning. Her spirit and energy are incredible. So many people have told us how perfect our wedding was (and how great she was), and we wouldn't change a thing about it. Bettina is absolutely the right person to trust for officiating your wedding day.Weddings by Bettina's reply:
As if I am ever going to forget this day in history? There was too much love in the air and the sky was that blue that makes your heart soar. I know I don't see Eric on Insta, but I do love my Thea there. -

Tevon Sent on 10/16/2018A+ Wedding Celebrant!
We were so lucky to have found Bettina! After seeing her perform a friends ceremony, my now husband and I knew that she was the perfect person to marry us. Professional, eloquent, and personal - she made our wedding ceremony one that we will never forget.
From our first meeting, Bettina walked us through the ceremony and what to expect on our wedding day. Bettina helped us navigate tricky family dynamics and traditions. Bettina listened to us and our story and created a beautiful ceremont that spoke to us as a couple. She was also available for us throughout our engagement, and traveled to Nantucket to perform our ceremony. Everyone loved getting to know her!
Our guests are still talking about her sweet words, thoughtfulness, and the care she took in officiating our ceremony. We are so thankful to Bettina and appreciate all she did for us! -
![Nicole]()
Nicole Sent on 12/23/2016I cannot even begin to properly thank Bettina for making our wedding ceremony more than we could ever ask for. From day one, we felt so comfortable and at ease. Bettina asked us many questions to get a good idea of our family dynamic and was very considerate of the personal issues in our families. When it came time for the wedding day, Bettina was incredibly supportive during a few family issues that came up prior to the ceremony. At the ceremony, she did such an amazing job keeping the audience engaged and catered the ceremony to exactly what we wanted - lighthearted, sweet, and humorous. I am so used to wedding ceremonies being rather boring and drawn out, but all of my guests told me that it was the best ceremony they had ever been to. Bettina managed to have the guests in tears and laughing simultaneously. Once again, thank you Bettina, for making our day extremely special and unforgettable. -

Simon Sent on 05/26/2019Second to none!
Bettina was a superstar from the start to finish of our wedding planning.
From our first meeting, Bettina balanced good humour and outstanding professionalism to put us at ease.
Back that up with her incredible performance at our ceremony, and you've got one heck of a celebrant. Our guests couldn't have sung higher praises for the comfortable, romantic, and meaningful ceremony that Bettina was such an integral part of creating.
We are so blessed to have been married by Bettina, and would recommend her services to anyone looking for a marriage celebrant who cares as much for your love and wedding day, as you do.
