Small Backyard Wedding

First of all, I cannot recommend Rachael highly enough! I reached out to her about a month before our wedding, and we quickly worked out scheduling and details! She was SO easy to communicate with, and quickly got us on the right track. We had a Zoom call with her a few days before the ceremony so we could get to know her a little bit and work out more specifics for our ceremony, and she definitely went above and beyond with helpfulness! On the ceremony day, she came in and we all instantly loved her! She was very professional, but we also felt like she was genuinely excited for us. Her ceremony was short and sweet, and the thought she had put into the vows was so apparent. We absolutely loved our experience with Rachael!

Simply Amazing!

From start to finish Katie was amazing to work with. Everyone at the wedding commented on what a beautiful, professional, and heartfelt person Katie was at the wedding! They wondered if she was a friend. Rachel was also a supportive player in our plans and both were extremely flexible and accommodating.

We loved her!!!

Rachael is amazing! She was fun, bubbly, and easy to talk to from the beginning of our wedding journey. It was just me and my husband‘s luck that we were able to find her as she was the officiant in my sister-in-laws wedding. She brought the vibes we were looking for and everyone at the wedding loved her. She is a breath of fresh air and is very easy to work with. What i loved about Rachael is she is on top of everything, gives you detailed instructions and is always there if you have any questions. She is absolutely amazing and I would highly highly recommend her! Thanks for everything Rachael,

Love- Jessica & Eddy Castellon

When we photograph a wedding and hear that Rachel is going to be officiating, we know that the ceremony is going to fun, whimsical, and sweet! She has a natural talent for engagement with both couples and guests and it's the little things she does that make photographing ceremonies with her so rewarding; from the moment of reflection where she has the bride & groom stand together and just gaze into each others' eyes to the way she steps back for the first kiss so we have a photo of just the bride & groom, her consideration and attention to detail is remarkable. Everyone loves Rachel, especially us!

You can tell that Rachael really cares about her clients and puts a lot of time into ensuring that the clients are getting what they want out of their ceremony. As a fellow vendor, i really appreciated how Rachael worked collaboratively and made sure that the couple have the perfect moments for us to capture during the ceremony. I highly recommend Rachael if you’re looking for someone who truly goes above and beyond!
