    My husband and I are so happy with Julia and her services. She was an excellent officiant and had good communication with us. I strongly recommend her services!

    Wonderful!

    Julia was absolutely amazing to work with. From the beginning, she was incredibly helpful, honest, and patient. We spoke over the phone, explained our ideas and what we wanted/didn’t want and she created amazing drafts of our potential ceremony. We were able to change and add anything we wanted, however, it was not needed. I am still receiving compliments from our ceremony from four months ago. My husband and I agree that our ceremony was the best part of the wedding and felt like a dream. We still talk about that part all the time. We are so grateful.

    Julia is a great officiant!

    We could not have had a better experience with Julia. We were looking for a non-religous ceremony with a combination of traditional and contemporary elements. I had a really good feeling about Julia and Your Wedding Belles when we spoke on the phone to go over our ideas. Julia took notes about everything and seemed interested in and connected to our ceremony. She gave us a few suggestions and had the perfect wording for every part, and was able to incorporate some of our own story into the ceremony. We were so happy with how everything turned out, and many guest commented on how beautiful the ceremony was. Julia was professional and communicative during the ceremony writing process, and delivered a beautiful ceremony on the day of our wedding. Highly recommend!

    Wonderful Ceremony!

    Your Wedding Belles was recommended to us by our venue and Julia was amazing. She wrote up the ceremony drafts and allowed us to edit them however we saw fit. She did such a great job and everything flowed so well and felt so natural. She responded to us right away, was so engaging, and arrived early. Highly recommend going with her and her team!

    Easy to work with

    We hired Julia and her team to help us with officiating the wedding of our dreams. After talking to Julia on the phone and hearing her passion we knew it was a fit. Easy to communicate with and really impressive
    options for how and what was said during the ceremony. We felt it was perfect .

    Lucky to have Julia!

    We are lucky to have had Julia on our special day! After two postponements due to COVID-19, we ended up losing our original officiant that we had planned due to retirement. He suggested someone else, but we didn’t quite feel like we fit, so the search continued. I ended up putting out a PSA on Facebook bridal page which is where I found Julia and Your Wedding Belles. She was quick to respond and we met up quickly to discuss our options. It was so great meeting her and felt like we connected immediately. She listened to our story, took notes, and felt genuinely interested in performing our wedding ceremony.

    We hired her and loved our ceremony. She is quick to respond and took in all our considerations for the day. We wanted to make sure we had her and no one else after our meeting, we wanted to incorporate a group champagne toast at the beginning of the ceremony, and have hand-fasting ceremony (big Scottish Outlander fans here). She did it all and it was beautiful! She sent over 3 different outlines of ceremonies to gage which direction we wanted to go in and then she personalized it from there. It was fantastic!

    The only downfall I would say is that I wish she went over both of our vows to see how they matched up in timing. My vows were much longer than my husbands which got us really behind schedule so that would have been helpful to stay on time. However, I guess I could have asked, but I didn’t think about it at the time.
    At the end of the ceremony, everything was very organized in getting everyone to sign. Then, she took all the documents and sent them in herself and we didn’t have to worry about it. We are very pleased with our services and highly recommend Julia!

    Ron and Joanie's desert wedding..

    I would hire Julia Satterlee from YOUR WEDDING BELLES again in a heart beat..she was the best..professional, friendly, went the extra mile to provide helpful hints and then her follow up was amazing. We traveled 563 miles to meet her and it proved to be so much more than we could ever imagine a person/company to give to her clients. Yes please consider Your Wedding Belles for you special day.

    Poised and professional

    Reverend Julia now has a small team of officiants. She does all the writing, and we had Reverend Jill officiate. I was impressed by Reverend Jill's poise, professionalism, and confidence. She projected just fine with her mask on for a 9 person ceremony. She showed up on time looking very sharp and ready to go. My impossible to please family was raving about how great she was! She traveled to OC for no extra charge.

    Julia was amazing. Communicated well. Listened to our needs and wants. Helped us with making the ceremony our own with the perfect vows. Made the ceremony sound flawless. Would recommend to all my family and friends. Worth every penny.

    Julia was perfect

    Julia performed our ceremony on July 11, 2020. She was professional and extremely helpful. She went beyond her job to make our day perfect . when something needed attention, such as some outfit adjustments for myself and my husband, she was more than happy to help out. But more importantly she spoke beautifully and everyone at my ceremony felt as though she was the perfect officiant. I found her through weddingwire and she was quick to respond to my inquiry and at a reasonable price. She is also very friendly and will help guide you through this process and I highly recommend her service.

    Julia is amazing!

    Julia was amazing! We had a very simple, small wedding, but Julia made the ceremony memorable and magical. She worked with us to create and tailor the perfect processional, allowing us to make it our very own. She was a delight to work with and made us feel so comfortable. She immediately felt like part of the family. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

    Amazing!

    Julia took the time to get to know my husband and I so she could personalize our ceremony. She gave me multiple options to choose from as a starting ground and I could edit from there. I didn’t need to though because one of the was perfect from the start! When I read it I cried. I also told her that I would like a few things added to our vows to personalize them and she added them beautifully.

    Julia is amazing!

    We had a very small, and intimate elopement at our apartment. Julia was right on time, and she made the best out of our little gathering. Since the moment she first spoke on the phone with me, I felt a great connection as she's very easy to speak to and answered all my questions. We highly recommend Julia!!!

    Our wedding was set for April 25th, but of course as with everything else, it was postponed. It was on May 2nd. We had already met with Julia, she was on time, professional and friendly. She was also very accommodating as we had to change the date and venue. She agreed to come to our house and perform our ceremony during the masked pandemic!!!

    This is the officiant you want.

    Julia was an absolute LIFESAVER for our wedding. We were a part of the corona-couple group whose wedding was postponed until the fall. We really had our heart set on the date so decided to elope! I connected with a number of different officiants I could find online, and immediately felt a connection with Julia. Instead of just sending over a pre-made script she took the time to really hear our story, and understand what we were looking for in terms of our marriage. She is a wonderful communicator, and absolutely put me at ease throughout the entire process. She was professional, calm, radiated kindness... everything you want your officiant to encompass. Going above and beyond is an understatement, if you have the ability to work with her and have her be your officiant... you won't regret it. THANK YOU SO MUCH JULIA! You will forever be a cornerstone of our special day!

    Friendly, Respectful, Timely, and Affordable Officiant!

    Julia was very kind and helpful during the process leading up to the wedding. We had a casual phone conversation initially to get to know one another, and we clicked right away! She provided me a few different pieces to review (marriage vows) that helped me figure out the direction and vibe I was feeling for our big day. I even provided her with my own feedback and recommendations that she was open to incorporating! She’s very communicative, respectful, and was expressively thankful for choosing her to be part of our special day. Also, her services were under $200, which $50 of that is only optional if you need / want her at your rehearsal! Stay away from overpriced Officiants who don’t really care what you want or don’t vibe with your expectations, and simply just want to charge you $400+ to read a transcript for 15-20 min. Definitely recommend her services for your wedding. Cheers!

    Wedding Officiant

    We absolutely LOVED having Julia as our officiant. We only spoke on the phone ( per our own preference) and even still she managed to deliver the most perfect ceremony. We wanted short, sweet, and beautiful and that is exactly what we got ! 10000% happy with our wedding ceremony!

    She is the BEST

    She is very “about your day” she asked me questions and made sure everything was as we wanted it!! I did a DIY wedding and it was very stressful but having her as our officiant made that one less thing to worry about.. she came to our wedding rehearsal and arrived in a timely manner on our wedding day!! I would definitely recommend her

    Awesome Officiant!

    Julia was professional, on time and gave great guidance during our ceremony. We were both really nervous and she helped to calm our nerves down. I enjoyed her presence and appreciate the bit of advice she gave me before getting married. She's also accommodating and has some friendly humor. Bonus part was the fact that she loved the alpacas!

    Amazing Officiant!

    Julia was amazing from the get go! My husband and I wanted someone very personable, with a sense of humor and that also matched our morals and values. After a phone interview, we both knew Julia was the one for us! We wanted to include some special Psalms, Bible verses and prayers without bombarding our guests with RELIGION 101. Julia was very receptive to our wishes. Julia had such technique in making the entire ceremony flow while hitting each one of the marks flawlessly. We even experienced a small family issue right before the Big Day and Julia was so relaxed and reassuring that it was no problem to make any changes - even 5 mins before the ceremony. Thankfully she talked me off my ledge! We had guests complimenting us all night on the ceremony. She was quick per our request but it did not feel rushed by any means. It was truly one of the most beautiful magical moments that I will remember for the rest of my life. Thank you Julia for sharing in our incredible day!

    Mother of the Bride

    I got in touch with Julia the week before my daughter's wedding. She was very understanding and accommodating of our situation, which was unusual. We ended up needing her the day if the wedding and as promised she showed up, early. looked beautiful and professional. She delivered our ceremony with the ease and comfort of someone who's born to be in front of a mic. She was pleasant, organized, well presented and friendly. I would highly recommend her to be a part of your special day.

    Over & above my expectations

    Last minute call for help after San Diego cancelled my outdoor ceremony. Found Julia on Thumbtack and she was perfect. We spoke on the phone over 3000 miles away and she had the sermon down perfectly!

    Executive Consultant

    Julia was amazing!! From the minute we met her, we knew she was the one to officiate our marriage. She created a beautiful blend of our faith, love for one another and who we are as a couple into words that made our vows beyond perfection. Without hesitation, we would recommend her and consider her a friend.

    Outstanding

    We had to move our vow renewal three times. February 14 it was raining and many rodes were flooded. Despite all this Julia made her way through and did a great ceremony right in the middle of a restaurant! Outstanding

    Absolutely Amazing Officiant!!

    Julia was nothing short of AMAZING during the entire process of providing my wife and I with our wedding ceremony. From the very beginning, she was open, flexible, responsive and she LISTENENED to what we wanted, and needed, for our special day. She was very creative with the wording that she used for our ceremony and it was so beautiful, and inspiring, that we actually even had two guests who asked for her information just so that they could get a copy of it to have for later! Additionally, we had a tremendous amount of stress in trying to get our rehearsal started, on the evening before the wedding, to the point that we almost didn’t have one. Long story short, Julia came out and performed our rehearsal with us at 12:30am on the morning of the wedding even though it was supposed to have taken place hours earlier in the evening. Julia had already settled in to her room, and was fast asleep, when we (apologetically) woke her up to ask if she could help us to do a quick walk through. Not only did she immediately get up to help us, but she provided such a SOOTHING comfort to us, calming us down from what had, up to that point, been a nightmare of an evening. Words cannot fully, or adequately, express how much that meant to us, and how grateful we were. We HIGHLY recommend Julia to anyone who is looking for a wonderfully, creative, professional and flexible officiant to help make their wedding day beautiful!!

    Julia does an amazing job!

    Julia did an amazing job! She made things extremely easy on me. I highly recommend having Julia marry you. From our very first phone conversation, where she spent her time getting to know about me and the groom, to the follow up emails, with some suggestions as far as vows were worded and written. She had a bunch of different types of vows to use and considering we did a very non traditional-non-religious wedding she made it very spiritually special. Julia was always great on getting back to me and was very punctual and efficient the day of the wedding. Thanks so much for making our special day even more special Julia!

    Great, personalized ceremony

    The officiant was one of the areas that I knew the least about, since most of my friends were married by their various churches. However, my fiancé and I wanted a non-religious ceremony. I did speak with multiple officiants/celebrant, but Julia was by far the most friendly and experienced. She clearly explained her role as the officiant and the process of writing the ceremony. During our initial phone call, she also asked a lot of questions about me and my fiancé, so that she could get to know us and our relationship and work it into the ceremony.

    A couple of weeks before the wedding, Julia sent us 3 different drafts for the ceremony. We were able to mix and match til we found a draft that we liked, and she was more than accommodating when I asked her to add in some more personalization.

    On the day of the wedding, Julia was prepared and set up our wine ceremony box to look good in photos, handled our vow books, and help up the microphone during our vows so we wouldn't need to fuss with anything. She was also great at giving us cues, like when we needed to taking a half-step back for photos or hold hands. Like a pro, she immediately stepped to the side during the first kiss, so that she wouldn't photobomb.

    Amidst all the post-ceremony buzz, she walked our witnesses through signing the marriage license. Unfortunately, Julia forgot to sign herself. Luckily, we caught the mistake a few days later, and Julia was quick to respond and fix the issue.

    I would definitely recommend Julia as your officiant!
