Such a great experience!

My husband and I were married on Anini Beach on 2/14/20. Dale was fabulous and so professional. She was very responsive when we had any questions. We are so pleased with the ceremony. Thank you!

A Perfect Experience

Dale provided my husband and me a a beautiful wedding. I contacted her only 10 days earlier and asked if she could perform a same-sex Jewish ceremony on a beach at sunset and do it on such short notice. She did. We felt completely comfortable with her from the first time we spoke all the way through the ceremony. She was flexible and responsive to all of our requests. The ceremony was joyous, spiritual, personal, deeply meaningful, and fun. We highly recommend Joyful Ceremonies.
