Our Perfect Officiant

It was an absolute joy to have Srishti officiate our wedding, from start to finish, we felt extremely taken care of and in the most competent hands. She has a soothing presence, is a beautiful writer, and took great care in preparing and officiating our ceremony. We had no concept of what kind of ceremony we wanted, and Srishti managed to come up with an elegant, beautiful and thoughtful wedding that fit perfectly with who we are. Even small touches, like checking over our marriage license and reaching out to check on us in the weeks leading up, to reassuring words while the groom stood nervously at the front of the room and pausing to let a crying baby settle, we couldn’t be happier with how she performed. We feel incredibly lucky to have had Srishti marry us, and we can’t recommend her enough. It was perfect, thank you Srishti!

Feeling at ease with Srishti

We interviewed a few recommended officiants in the Ottawa area that were recommended for LGBT weddings and Srishti Hukku made us feel so incredibly comfortable. They have been so easy to deal with and the process was so smooth. Not a single blip in the speech on the day of. Our ceremony was 100% customized to us and our guests ranted and raved about it. Every idea we had Srishti welcomed. We incorporated a ring warming ritual which was so special to us. two days before we had to completely change from an outdoor ceremony to indoor ceremony. Srishti immediately called us to see how we were doing mentally and offered to help, they also verified if our ceremony needed to be changed at that time.

Srishti has been extremely invested in us as a couple and this is the experience we wanted from our officiant. Someone who wanted to mingle with our guests and see the community we have created to support us through this life.

We absolutely loved working with Srishti and we cannot wait to share more moments with them.

The Perfect Modern and Loving Officiant

Srishti was more phenomenal than we would have ever expected. The amazing thing about Srishti is that she will be as involved as you would like her to be. She plans ceremonies meticulously, gives great suggestions when asked, will edit your vows and ideas for you if that is what you would like, but she can also be extremely flexible when you want to change things or let you do most of the planning if that is what you would like...all the while keeping a loving eye on you to make sure that everything is being planned properly. My wife and I had two ceremonies with Srishti and experienced both. She suggested great ritual ideas to do for our first one and we ended up designing one together with her about cutting and eating pancakes! (my wife and I confessed our feelings to each other in a pancake shop). In the second ceremony she kept digging to find a reading that fits our story and found the most wonderfully befitting one that made us cry instantly! She also edited our vows for us and rehearsed with us both times as well as sharing her screen with us so that we can all edit the plans together.

Srishti is very smart, calm, and extremely kind. She also cares a lot about social justice issues, inclusiveness, and is an ally of the LGBTQIA2S+ communities. She became our friend throughout our journey and gave us love and support when we needed it too. She's the perfect modern and loving officiant.

Srishti is amazing

Working with Srishti was amazing. She took the time to get to know us, was easy to work with, and both guided us and wove our ideas into the perfect ceremony. She goes the extra mile to ensure every detail (including brining our dog into the ceremony!) is accounted for. If you're looking for a secular officiant for your wedding we guarantee that you will be thrilled with Srishti.

Incredible!

Our experience with Srishti was effortless from start to finish. She was vey open and flexible, and tailored the ceremony to fit us which we really appreciated! She walked us through the process and legal requirements which made it a breeze. On top of her professionalism, Srishti was incredibly kind and it was a pleasure having her as part of our ceremony. Highly recommend to everyone!

So thankful we found Srishti

We interviewed a few officiants before making a decision and during our meeting with Srishti, my now wife wrote over our notes “she’s the one” and circled it a dozen times. We are so happy with our decision. Srishti was there for all our questions, to run us through a practice, and to greet our guests before and after the ceremony. Srishti delivered the ceremony so calmly, which in turn helped keep us brides calm. They were enthusiastic about all of our ideas for the ceremony, such as our ring warming. Srishti was so invested in our union. We got videos of our first kiss and I love seeing Srishti get all giddy off to the side. It really goes to show how much they value the couples they choose to marry. We so hope we get to stay in touch and share our life’s milestones with the best officiant we could have chose. Thanks a ton, Srishti!
