    Helped us make the magic happen ☺️

    Kathleen was excellent to work with. She helped guide us just enough so that we were able to make our special day ... special. She made sure we covered all the bases, put our own personal touch on the ceremony, and made it all very easy for everyone.

    Great officiant

    Kathleen was awesome to work with. She took the time to ask questions and listen to ensure the experience was as we envisioned. She was also very helpful with ideas and suggestions to make it all come together

    Wonderful Officiant!

    Kathleen was a fantastic officiant! She was efficient, organized, and made sure the ceremony went smoothly from start to finish. Everything was thoughtfully written in advance, which took a lot of stress off our shoulders. Highly recommend working with Kathleen!

    Perfect Choice

    Kathleen was the perfect choice for us! She was very patient with all our questions and our indecision on everything from vows to ceremony site, and was even able to recommend a beautiful site for our very simple ceremony. This was a late life wedding for two people who have been married previously and she understood what we were looking for vs younger people doing their first big ceremony. A pleasure to work with in every way!

    We would highly recommend working with Kathleen!

    Kathleen was wonderful to work with. She is so attentive and organized and also a lovely person who made us feel at ease (especially for two people who don’t love to speak in front of crowds). When we first started wedding planning admittedly we were focused on so many aspects other than the ceremony, but once we began working with Kathleen she helped us make the ceremony so personalized and special to us. It ended up being our favorite part of the day and we will cherish those moments forever. We would highly recommend working with Kathleen! Thank you so much, Kathleen!

    Highly Recommend!!

    Kathleen could not have been a more perfect person to officiate our wedding just a couple of weekends ago. From the beginning, Kathleen spoke to us and we really felt connected to hear ideas and thoughts about love. Kathleen's communication is timely and she is very reliable. Kathleen is very open to feedback and truly wants the best for her couples - we felt seen, heard and taken care of. We knew that our ceremony would be extra special with Kathleen, and we were so right! Can't recommend her enough - our ceremony, was elegant and beautiful, as anyone could wish! :) Thank you Kathleen!

    Simply amazing

    You can tell that the years of experience that Kathleen has, pays off. She was able to help us create the perfect vows and incorporated our ideas for our ceremony beautifully. She ran with the ideas during our consult and was able to send over our vows after very few revisions. She absolutely captured our vision with what seemed to be very little effort. I highly recommend Kathleen to any couple looking to customize their vows for a truly unique ceremony.

    A beautiful and personalized ceremony

    Kathleen was the second officiant we talked with and we knew right after speaking with her (via zoom) that she was the right fit. She listened to what we were hoping for our ceremony and then crafted something that felt like us, asking for our input along the way. We felt like partners in the process and her warm and friendly demeanor make her so easy to work with. My one regret is not getting to spend more time with her in person! (We have a toddler who was needing a little extra attention when she arrived and then we were whisked away for photos right after the ceremony). I highly recommend Kathleen - you won't be disappointed!

    Kathleen brought our dream ceremony to life!

    Kathleen officiated our wedding on 10/15/21 and we cannot say enough good things about her! She guided us through the process with her kindness and warmth, and helped us build a touching, personalized ceremony. She truly felt like a friend throughout the process - and many guests commented on how touching our ceremony was. We could not be happier. Highly recommend Kathleen!

    Couldn't have asked for better

    With a Covid wedding a lot of our plans had to change in terms of the reception, however I wouldn't change a single thing about my ceremony thanks to Kathleen. She made it easy and stress-free. We spent 2 hours in person going through things and she captured exactly what we wanted. Every request we had, she met. Professional but yet gentle, she made us feel like she wasn't a stranger intruding on one of the most intimate moments of our lives.

    Kathleen is wonderful!

    Kathleen was knowledgeable and helpful from the beginning of our journey with her! We first chatted with her about a year before our wedding, she asked great questions, got to know us and shared a bit about herself. When we hung up the phone from that conversation, we knew that Kathleen was it for us. It was so clear to us that she loved what she did, even from a 45 minute phone call. She put us at ease, had great suggestions about flow and timing, and really worked with us to make our ceremony unique to us and special. Fast forward a year, Covid becomes a reality and we needed to change things up. Kathleen was communicative, adaptable and flexible with what our new plan was, which was super helpful as we navigated uncharted waters of getting married during a pandemic. Kathleen was communicative throughout this process, and led us through a rehearsal Zoom call that was informative and succinct, helping to lay out the day ahead. On our actual wedding day, Kathleen was lively and bright, smiling with us and engaged in making our day special for us. We would not have had the day we did without her. We hands-down recommend her to any couple looking for a JOP that will bring knowledge and expertise, while at the same time creating a ceremony that is personal, intimate and reflective of the couple. We couldn't be happier with Kathleen's help throughout this process!

    Wonderful Officiant. Responsive, Thoughtful, Graceful

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kathleen. She worked with my partner and I, to construct an incredibly personalized ceremony that was truly US. She made the day beyond special, with her thoughtful touches and graceful delivery. I highly recommend Kathleen for anyone that wants a truly personalized and memorable wedding ceremony.

    Simply amazing

    Kathleen saved our wedding! After a nightmare situation when our original officiant became MIA, I scurried around searching for an alternative literally a month before the wedding. Fortunately, my husband and I were introduced to Kathleen through our venue coordinator and it was meant-to-be. Communication with Kathleen was nothing short of perfection from the first email to the wedding day. We planned the ceremony primarily via email. She was responsive, understood our vision, and the final ceremony was exactly what we dreamed of. She is truly a hidden gem in the sea of wedding vendors and anyone would be lucky to select her to officiate their big day!

    Unbelievable!

    Kathleen is just superb in every aspect. So many people commented how awesome our ceremony was and how much they loved it. Kathleen was just tremendous. We all got together and chatted and from this she created everything with her magic. She is one of a kind & we will always cherish and remember her for all she did to make our day so special!

    A wonderfully, fantastic officiant!

    Kathleen is simply amazing! She is quick to respond to any questions. She was very organized and kept us on a timely schedule. She had many options to choose from so that we could compile a unique wedding ceremony that fit us and was responsive to any edits. Not to mention she was accepted the challenge of officiating a mix of a Thai/traditional ceremony (something very uncommon). Her experience shows in her presentation and our day was seamless! I highly recommend Kathleen to help make your big day complete and worry free.

    A joy to work with

    Kathleen did an amazing job writing our ceremony and sharing it on our wedding day. Everyone complimented how nice and sincere she was. Kathleen took the time to get to know us before our ceremony which really meant a lot to us. Highly recommend!

    Kathleen was the perfect fit to marry us on our wedding day! She was SO organized, which made planning with her an easy task. She did a wonderful job creating vows that suited our personalities, and made it a point to travel in order to join us during our rehearsal dinner. She is professional, kind and organized! She was truly a pleasure to work with!

    Kathleen was by far my favorite wedding vendor. She really took the time to get to know me and my husband as couple and truly customized the ceremony to fit us. She kept us on schedule so we weren't trying to write last minute vows. She offered books to help us write our vows and read through them and made helpful suggestions. I think most people prefer the reception, but the ceremony was my favorite part of the day- we laughed, we cried and shared so much love. Additionally, the bridal party took portraits at her house before the ceremony. It was the most beautiful lake backdrop for all of my photos. Kathleen is organized, sweet,flexible and compassionate- she is everything you would want in an officiant. Kathleen played such a huge role in the ceremony of my dreams and I KNOW she will do the same for any future brides!
