About

Rev. Rachelle Foster is a non-denominational legal Officiant based in Pembroke, who offers personalized wedding ceremonies, ranging from traditional to non-traditional. She believes your wedding ceremony ought to be a reflection of who you are as a couple. It is a way of expressing your love and devotion to one another in your own unique way. Rev. Rachelle has three basic types of service; just the paperwork, elopements and full weddings.

Services Offered

Rev. Rachelle is approachable and open-minded. She has one goal in mind; to provide a meaningful and memorable experience for you and your guests. She also offers commitments/pledges ceremonies (spiritually binding, not legal), which are based upon the established wedding packages.

Full wedding service includes personalization of the ceremony, help with finding/writing vows, and assistance with figuring out the logistics of ceremony itself within various venues. Rehearsals are not usually needed but are available upon request at an additional cost.

Elopements are for couples who do not want a large wedding, or for couples planning a destination wedding and want to make their marriage legal here in Canada. Elopements involve the couple and two witnesses, and there is no formal script; only basic service is provided which makes things legal. If you choose this option it is your responsibility to advise your guests things will be short and sweet.

Just the paperwork involves meeting at a location of the Officiant's choosing (usually a cozy coffee shoppe) and signing papers. The couple is "pronounced" and that's all there is. This service can be performed on short notice depending upon availability.

How She Works

For some couples saving money is very important but they still want the full wedding. A compromise might be to consider doing "Just the paperwork" or elopement to make things legal, and then have a close friend or family member "Officiate" your wedding ceremony where guests are present. This can often be a more intimate, fun and memorable way to go and might even be coordinated on the same day depending on availability. It is her mission to find the best option that works for each couple so that they can have their wedding, their way, within a price they can afford.

Arun's recommendation

Mrs. Foster was very helpful, proactive and responsive and guided us in the right manner to ensure a smooth marriage. She was very flexible with her time and was available on a very short notice as well as guided us through the ceremony in a very soothing manner to put us at ease and addressed all our questions expertly. I would highly recommend Mrs. Foster.

Beautiful Soul!

Rachelle was very professional from the beginning and executed our wedding ceremony very beautifully. Rachelle was punctual and organized with her work (loved her colourful sticky tabs). She was very kind and friendly towards us and our family. I am so happy we had the opportunity to have her be apart of our special day. Highly recommend her services! :)

Wedding ceremony

She was very punctual in regards to time and very patience. She completed all the formalities so calmly and easily that our wedding ceremony seemed so easy. Thanks to Ms. Rachelle, for the excellent service. I would recommend to other Bride or groom if they are getting married sooner, Ms. Rachelle is the best fit.

Rachelle was awesome working with me to deliver an intimate ceremony customized just for us. Rachelle showed up very early on the day to observe the space and meet everyone. She is very friendly and professional. I highly recommend Rachelle's service.

John and I contacted Rachelle through Wedding Wire, we were instantly impressed with her as she was friendly and professional. We had a telephone interview, face to face interview as well as a rehearsal with Rachelle, which gave us the opportunity to get to know her as a person, as a friend and as our officiant. Rachelle is punctual, personal, a great listener, and open to knew ideas. She is a funny, eager to please and overall, warm and friendly. Sometimes meeting new people for the first time is uncomfortable, but Rachelle went out of her way to let us know that our wedding day was "Our Day!" and she added great value to the event! She has a warm, soft melodious voice that makes you feel calm on what could have been a very stressful day. Knowing some family background Rachelle took the opportunity to take a couple pictures of John fixing my father's tie prior to the wedding, these pictures will forever be kept as special. Thank you Rachelle for a wonderful day!
