    Loved Nikeya

    We first met Nikeya at the Philadelphia Bridal Expo and immediately loved her charisma and personality. There was no doubt in mind when choosing her as our officiant. From our first meeting to the day of our wedding, Nikeya was punctual, professional and delivered with grace. During our ceremony, she introduced us and it literally sounded like she knew us for years, it was amazing.

    Amazing to work with!

    Nikeya was an exceptional day-of coordinator who provided more than just her services. She offered support and helped keep me calm during the most nerve-wracking moments. Nikeya went above and beyond to ensure that everything was taken care of, resulting in a stress-free wedding day. Even when a vendor issue arose just before the I walked down the aisle, Nikeya stepped in and handled it without breaking a sweat. Her dedication to her clients is admirable I not only had a successful wedding but also gained a new friend. Don’t hesitate to book with her she is worth it.

    Amazing! Completely thorough and detail oriented

    Nikeya was an absolute treat to work with. Everything was laid out perfectly and she was so detail oriented that we had no questions to ask her! She kept all the vendors in line and made sure the bride and groom weren’t bothered by any issues that could have possibly came up. Definitely recommend!

    PROFESSIONAL...AWESOME...AMAZING...FLAWLESS
    from the time I contacted Nikeya until my wedding day she was pleasant and accommodating, she answered al my questions and kept me calm. She offered words of inspiration. Nikeya performed my ceremony exactly as I expected and requested. She gave a ceremony reading that was uplifting and inspiring. We could not have asked for a better officiant. Nikeya also does wedding day coordinating services so we had the pleasure of her all day. The reception never missed a step...she made sure everything was on time and in order...I highly reccomend her in either capacity...you will be glad...Thank you again Nikeya for the making my wedding day FLAWLESS...

    Great Experience!

    We planned a very last minute wedding, and we only reached out to wedding officiants three days before. We were worried we wouldn't be able to find someone, but Tysha immediately got back to us and continued to be very responsive and prompt with her communication. Nikeya did our ceremony, and she said a beautiful prayer and kept the vows short and sweet, exactly like we had asked. Both Tysha and Nikeya were very professional but also personable and funny, and they put as ease before and after the ceremony. They also gave us a candle, a bottle of wine, and two wine glasses as a wedding gift!! I can't recommend them more!

    Professional and excellent

    My fiancé and I wanted a private but reasonable wedding as it was just the two of us. Other vendors were giving astronomical prices. She was within our budget and very professional and on time

    Would've been better without her

    We hired Nikeya nine months before our wedding with one initial phone call to confirm our early requests, and then we scheduled another phone call for 3 weeks before the wedding. During the second call, she said that she did not feel comfortable sharing what she would write with us before the ceremony, but I insisted. After these two phone calls and supposedly reading our wedding website, Nikeya did not understand us enough to write anything we liked. Three days before the wedding, she had yet to write the script for the ceremony, so we ended up writing the script for her entirely. She arrived late on the day of, and did not join the ceremony area until 5 minutes before the ceremony was said to start. This was after our venue coordinator had told her that people were looking for her to check the microphones for the ceremony. Even then, she messed up reading it which leads me to think she did not actually read it before the ceremony. Everyone there noticed her mess-ups, and my now-husband was fuming internally at the altar. Now we can laugh about how much stress it caused us, but I would not recommend her if you are a type A person. She frequently left me on read, insisted she had everything handled when she didn't, and did not listen to our very specific requests. We had told her on two separate occasions that I would not be taking my husband's last name, and yet she still announced us with his last name after our kiss, confusing everyone. If you are looking for a stress-free ceremony experience, I do not recommend these services. The only thing she did correctly was fill out the paperwork and send it to the courthouse.

    Just Don't

    Paid for the Lux package and didnt receive any of the services listed. My package was supposed to include
    Vow Assistance - Proofreading and editing your draft. Support start to finish with vows. Feedback and support with handwritten vows, a
    Customized Ceremony - where it was supposed to be tailored to your preferences, ensuring it reflects your unique love story and customizations.

    She says she's available for zoom or in-person meetings that never happened. Leading up to the day we spoke briefly and she said she doesn't wear black because its distracting, yeah well she showed up in black.

    Lastly, my wife and I ended up writing her ceremony speech because she refuses to share her speech as if its a surprise.

    I was so fed up by the day of, I didnt allow her to take our certificate to city hall in fear it wouldn't make it.

    Met her at the wedding expo, and it was a disaster. From failure to render services and support to non communication and missing scheduled meetings. It felt like I needed to chase her after she got paid. I would run away from this business.
