    Genuine, thoughtful and kind

    My partner and I were fortunate to have Brittany officiate our wedding this past weekend. From our first point of contact, she was absolutely wonderful. Brittany is a joy to work with. She is so thorough and thoughtful in her practice. She took the time to truly get to know us as individual and a couple. As we were working on our ceremony, she was so flexible and responsive to feedback. A wedding is such a personal experience and she crafted a ceremony that was truly unique to us. Nothing generic or carbon copy here!

    She also brings such a positive energy and light to the ceremony. It's obvious that she loves what she does and cares deeply about her role in your big day. She went above and beyond and far exceeded our expectations. I can't recommend Brittany enough!

    So kind and so easy

    Brittany made getting married such a fun and easy process. We had a family member officiate and she helped us make the whole thing legal. She was nothing but kind and informative over the whole planning process and was an absolute delight to share our big day with.

    Brittany Shannon's reply:

    It was a pleasure meeting you both and assisting with the legal component of your marriage ceremony. I appreciated how important it was to you both to have a bilingual ceremony - and was so impressed by your friend who officiated! He did a wonderful job! Many blessings on your marriage!

    Perfect Officiant

    Brittany was so incredible to work with. From our first phone call to emailing she was so friendly, professional and passionate about what she does. She really embraced our wants as a couple and made our wedding feel like it was a reflection of who we are as a couple. Not only were we honoured to have her marry us, but many of our family/friends told us what a wonderful ceremony it was. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Brittany! She will make your ceremony a dream come true!

    Brittany Shannon's reply:

    Thank you Sarah and Brayden! You two were also an absolute pleasure to work with - kind, enthusiastic, and truly hilarious (in the best sort of ways!). You had me smiling the entire process!
    So happy that you two met one another and so honoured to have crafted and officiated your wedding ceremony.
    Wishing you both a lifetime of love and laughter!
    Sincerely,
    Brittany

    Kind, passionate, thoughtful and professional - the perfect officiant!

    Brittany officiated our wedding in July, and we couldn’t have chosen a better person for our special day. Brittany is so kind, passionate and thoughtful. She brings such a joyful and positive presence that makes you feel calm and that everything is going to be okay. On the day before the wedding, she came right to our venue and coordinated a wonderful rehearsal with us. We went over what the big day would look like, and our entire wedding party felt so confident and comfortable by the end – she relieved so many nerves for us!
    Brittany is also so professional and organized. She laid out the entire wedding process for us and we always knew what our next steps were. We wrote the ceremony script together with Brittany, and she continued to check in with us and included all of our ideas and quotes. She made it so personal, and we cried after reading over her final draft. She made us reflect on what we truly loved about one another, and we had so much fun answering her questions. She sent us examples of vows and ring vows, which was a great starting point for us, as we wanted to write our own vows. She was so supportive and was always available to answer our questions and give helpful advice. Thank you for everything Brittany – we will recommend you to everyone we know!

    Brittany Shannon's reply:

    Thank you both very much for your kind words! You two are a dream-team! It was heartwarming to learn about your journey together as a couple, and to learn how deeply you wanted this expressed during your ceremony. I am grateful for the opportunity to finely craft your ceremony script.
    Wishing you a lifetime of love!

    Brittany is truly a find!

    We knew Brittany was the officiant for us from the very first telephone conversation. She has a very warm and sweet-natured personality and this shines through even more when she writes your ceremony script. She is very flexible and happy to change details in the draft scripts, responds quickly to questions and no question is a stupid one.

    Britanny has complete understanding of all the legal requirements and takes you through step by step with what you need to do, what you can do to make the wedding day smoother and what you can leave for her. I am British and my husband, Canadian, so we needed to make sure I had all the necessary paperwork from my side.

    We were so happy when Britanny accepted our invitation to attend our traditional Chinese Tea Ceremony (prior to the western wedding). It was wonderful that she was curious about my culture and traditions. We didn't run to exact schedule time, as the Chinese part of the wedding ran over a little, which made me panic on the wedding day, but Brittany didn't mention anything and still gave the most beautiful ceremony ever! I cried, the groom cried and so did most of the guests!

    Brittany's enthusiasm for her work madd our special day even more special! She is a fun, relaxed professional that you'll want at your wedding! Plus she has a lovely smile that just reassures you that everything will be okay and you can just enjoy the day!

    We 100% recommend her services. Our family and friends also commented on how wonderful her speech was and her pace is perfect. Not too long, not rushed. We both felt that the ceremony was hand-crafted for us as she weaved elements of our love story throughout.
    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Brittany, for being a very special part of our special day and bringing your smile and warmth (along with sunshine) to us in Kingston!

    Brittany Shannon's reply:

    Thank you both from the "bottom of my heart" for letting me participate in your incredible celebration of love! It was an honour and privilege to participate in your traditional Tea Ceremony! This was an experience that I will never forget. I was also so excited to be able to craft for you the "butterfly release" you envisioned for the end of your ceremony. I wish you both an incredible lifetime of love and travel together!
    Thank you!
    Warmest wishes now and always, Brittany

    Incredible Experience

    Brittany was absolutely amazing! From the first time we spoke on the phone, to her performing our ceremony was an absolute breeze. She makes it look so easy!

    She altered the ceremony around our lives and our love story, and my husband and I couldn’t have been more lucky to have such a perfect celebrant. She was so in depth with our rehearsal to make sure everything went smoothly, and just as we would like.

    One million times I would recommend her, and have your day be as incredible as ours!

    Thank you Brittany :)

    Brittany Shannon's reply:

    Thank you so much Meagan and Jacob! You two made my job a breeze! I felt so honoured to be a part of your special day and will never forget how happy your dogs Charlie and Ripley to be a part of your ceremony too!
    Best wishes to you all, now and always:)

    Dream come true

    Brittany was the absolute perfect person for our wedding. So kind, thoughtful and caring she makes the whole scary and intimidating process feel like just another day. She’s so professional and calm, she knows just what to say and how to make sure all audiences from young to old are paying attention and knowing their role in the big day. We had a pandemic wedding and she was so thoughtful and easy to work with through the whole process. She does so much for you and goes above and beyond, so much so that when you go to other weddings you find yourself noticing the process other officiants have and realize how much more you love everything Brittany does for you. Easiest decision we made for our wedding and anyone would be crazy to not go with her, I’ll recommend her until the day she’s done officiating.

    So Happy We Had Brittany

    Brittany was quick to respond since day 1. She answered all of our questions, when when I asked the same ones multiple times! She made great suggestions and was very flexible when we made changes. I truly felt that the ceremony was personalized to us and felt like OUR ceremony and not a generic one. She was great and would highly recommend her!

    Beautiful/amazing/perfection

    I am beyond grateful that I chose Brittany Shannon to be our officiant. Our ceremony exceeded my expectations. Brittany has a beautiful soft voice, she chose the perfect words to explain the love we felt. She made the ceremony feel so personal and everyone could really feel the love. We had several friends ask us for her information for their future weddings because she did such an amazing job. I can’t say enough good words about her. She was extremely flexible. I changed my wedding plans multiple times (date, location, time…) Brittany was always willing to make these changes with us and was just a joy to talk to and work with.

    5+ starts all around. Highly recommend.
