    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!

    I was blessed to be your officiant. The ceremony was intimate, so loving, in a stunning space. Our friendship is dear to me and you and Andrew have a special place in my heart.

    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.

    Bonny Thorne's reply:

    Thank you for such kind words, they mean everything to me. I loved our immediate connection when we chatted, and you made it so easy to work with you and I am pleased you loved your customized ceremony! You are both such kind humans, and I really hope our paths cross again soon. With love, Bonny

    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. :)

    Bonny Thorne's reply:

    You had such a beautiful romantic wedding and I loved your energy, and your family and friends were so ‘over the moon’ happy for you two! Sending my heartfelt appreciations to you for the honor of being your wedding officiant. Bonny 💫

    Mariel + Jordan,
    I loved everything about your rehearsal and wedding!
    You have the most easy going and fun wedding party, they were so kind and it was really apparent, how much you two are loved!

    Your grandmas were gorgeous and the young ring bearer was amazing walking down the aisle.

    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 Thorne's reply:

    I loved being your wedding officiant in every way! We connected immediately and I was teary eyed when it worked out that your beautiful mum ended up in the 9th hour, able to walk you down the aisle! I send my warmest appreciations to you both for including me in your nuptials!

    A true joy and light on our special day

    Oh what to say about Bonny… She was such a delight in every way. From coordinating our ceremony with us (and working through a cheeky toddler in the background), to being an instant comfort upon her arrival at our wedding day, Bonny’s ability and dedication is evident in everything she does. We are so happy with the way our ceremony turned out, as were all those in attendance. We are so thankful for the light she brought to our life, and will cherish the memories for a lifetime.

    Bonny Thorne's reply:

    I felt we resonated immediately, Emily, and then I fell in love with your wee family! I have a soft spot for farm weddings, and the land set up for your nuptials had a natural beauty we all witnessed and felt, what a blessing to all be together, celebrating love! I can’t wait to see the photo on the tractor, well all of them:)
    Sending BIG bundles of hugs and love 💕

    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 Thorne's reply:

    Aww thank you for such kind words. I’m touched.
    I loved being your officiant and it was super special with your kids in your wedding party!
    I wish you a lifetime of peace and happiness.

    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!

    Bonny Thorne's reply:

    Tammy + Mike,

    You are such an authentic warm loving couple! Yes, Covid restrictions were part of the planning challenge, but the silver lining was how precious and heartfelt your beautiful elopement was and the deepest gratitude you beamed at each during the ceremony!
    Sending my warmest wishes xo

    Excellent Wedding Officiant!

    Brett and I highly recommend Bonny Thorne as your wedding officiant. From our first meeting till after the wedding she helped us every step of the way. We could contact her anytime we had a question. She walked us through a great rehearsal which made our special day seem flawless! Thank you Bonny for your expertise and beautiful work. Our ceremony would not have been the same without you.
    - Rochelle

    Bonny Thorne's reply:

    Rochelle + Brett, I really enjoyed working with you both over the months before the wedding and we sure did laugh a lot at the rehearsal:) Beautiful wedding- I felt so much love abound for you both by your guests and incredible wedding party!

    Could not have imagined it any better!!!

    Bonny Thorne was our officiant for our wedding on May 9, 2020 and we are SO glad we found her!! Yes, we still got married during the pandemic and Bonny was 100% on board with everything and anything we wanted our day to be and ensured it was so special no matter what. If anything, she made our day feel even more special than we could have ever imagined! She helped us navigate our 170 person wedding to a 15 person wedding and ensured every detail was thought of and perfected. We weren't even able to meet in person before the wedding due to the pandemic so we had all of our meetings on Facetime and from the first moment we "met" we felt like we had known her forever! Bonny is so passionate about her work and will do everything to make your wedding perfectly suited to you and what you have envisioned for your big day. She brings so much positivity, love, and energy to everything she does and every single one of our guests, including the 150 people watching our wedding on Zoom, commented on how absolutely wonderful she was. We could not have done it without her and I will recommend Bonny to every single person I know who is getting married! She is the BEST! If you want your wedding to be light, romantic, full of laughter, smiles, and hugs and someone who will work so hard to personalize your day for you in every way possible she is your gal!!! We love you Bonny!

    Bonny Thorne's reply:

    Katie + Blair,
    Oh my goodness, thank you for such a kind, generous review, I’m truly grateful!
    I felt an affinity with you immediately and I was so inspired by you both as such caring kind beautiful people inside and out.

    Your nuptials were elegant, authentic and I must admit, I was teary eyed during those heartfelt vows. I think everybody was so moved by your words and touched by your love as a couple during the ceremony.

    I consider myself blessed with two new family members that I feel exceptionally close to.
    Sending my love! XO
    Bonny
