Best officiant ever

Bonny officiated our wedding on September 9th, 2022 and the day would not have been the same without her. We can’t recommend her enough! From the first connection, we resonated with her warm, relaxed and authentic style. She was beyond helpful with helping us organize the flow of the ceremony and ensured we stayed present. The rehearsal and ceremony both went seamlessly! The readings were beautiful and felt so “us”. We felt so at ease and it was reassuring that she was able to read our nature so easily. She knew exactly what kind of ceremony we were hoping for… and absolutely nailed it! She supported us in having an authentic, lighthearted, and loving wedding.
Bonny, you are so special and we appreciate you endlessly.

Wonderful and fun!

Bonny was wonderful. She made our special day exactly that. She was easy to speak with and understanding.
I love that she met with us prior to make sure we felt comfortable with everything. She provided me with her phone number should I need anything, I could ask.
Thank you Bonny!! I would highly recommend her to anyone getting married within the areas she attends to. :)

Detailed, Accomodating, great ideas

Bonny is A+++ !! She is a very WARM, accommodating, energetic, detail oriented officiant! We had a video chat session with her prior to the ceremony. She laid it out in microscopic detail, down to how the groomsmen place their hands together while standing at the side, to how our rings are placed on our fingers before we finish our vows...basically things I appreciated she noted that I had not thought about. This made it easy for us to concentrate on organizing the celebrations. With the ceremony process ironed out and discussed, we had a well thought out plan to implement. She has lots of good ideas, recommended the perfect photographer for us, and just made the whole wedding ceremony experience PERFECT!!

She was even immediately so accommodating when 5 of our immediate family was flying in late and suggested pushing the ceremony an hour later so they wouldn't miss it.. that is above and beyond I say!!

I would definitely recommend her to any of my friends and family who are getting married!

Thank you Bonnie for making our day so wonderful with your charm, big smile, and cheerful demeanor!!

Bonny is the Best Ever Wedding Officiant!

Consider yourself extremely lucky if you can land Bonny as your officiant for your chosen wedding date. Right from the start, I resonated with Bonny's grounded warmth, love, and kindness. She was not only incredibly professional - but also very friendly and fun! I could barely hold myself together that day as I was so overwhelmed marrying the love of my life, but she gently guided us through the entire ceremony with her soft direction. We are so lucky to have had Bonny be a part of our special day - thank you so very much, Bonny! - Michelle + Steve

Bonny is absolutely wonderful!

Bonny was sweet & lovely from the moment I contacted her! We had 1 planning phone call and 1 FaceTime before our wedding day. This was perfect cause we got to know her and also went over all our details. She’s very thorough and makes sure your ceremony is exactly what you dream it to be. And when we had to change our date due to covid restrictions she easily accommodated us. We can’t recommend Bonny enough! She’s just a wonderful person!

The best experience for our special day

Bonny made the experience so magical and intimate. We couldn’t have picked a more perfect person to make us man and wife, her positivity and her nurturing attitude made us feel like she was part of our family. She went above and beyond what we expected and we are forever grateful.

Made our special day very memorable

Bonny was perfect for our intimate ceremony — she was patient, sweet and understood the sacredness of weddings. She guided us every step of the way. We exchanged vows in a tranquil space with no music, and she brought radiant energy to the venue. She recited our personalized poem with ease, a piece she encouraged us to write beforehand. Bonny, thank you for helping us prepare for our big day and for sharing your expertise with us. You've made our special day extra memorable!
