Cecilia was fantastic!

We loved working with Cecilia. She was kind, patient, professional, down to earth and organized. Our guests noticed and commented to us how wonderful she was! We are a queer couple and she was informed and thoughtful as to how to make the wedding reflect us as individuals and as a couple uniquely. We would highly recommend her!

Cecilia was just what we wanted and needed!

We had our wedding this last spring at Hatley Castle. Cecilia was so warm and great to work with. She met with us multiple times on Zoom before the event, and in the end basically built our whole vows that we absolutely loved. She saved us basically! Highly recommend. Very flexible and took the time to get to know us and what to come up with just for us.

Cecilia officiated our wedding in April 2023. Cecilia was great when it came to communication, she was able to meet all of our requests and made us feel so comfortable during the ceremony. We highly recommend Cecilia and are so thankful that she was able to be apart of our day!

Cecilia is Wonderful!

I'm very overdue on writing this review, but one year ago, Cecilia was our officiant for our wedding at the Pendray Inn. Coming into Victoria from Alberta, she met with us virtually months in advance to get to know us and guide us throught the process of getting married in British Columbia. She was amazingly warm and genuine from day one. My husband and I appreciated her fun, light hearted approach and guidance to work on our vows. On the big day she was perfect and a wonderful addition to our wedding day. We are very happy to have found Cecilia!

Professional, knowledgeable and caring vendor

As an wedding coordinator, it is essential to have a professional and knowledgeable officiant to guide and organize the couple on their journey. Cecilia fits this category completely.

So lovely and calming presence.

Cecilia was so great to work with! She made us feel so comfortable. She also printed our vows that we wrote ourselves on beautiful paper with a cute wax stamp on it. Little things that make amazing keepsakes.

Would HIGHLY Recommend!

There are so many wonderful things to say about Cecelia! She is a genuine, kind-hearted, and passionate woman. She radiates joy and love as she eloquently addresses a crowd. She is witty and knows exactly how to create the perfect flow to her words. The biggest impact was the time she took to get to know us before creating our ceremony. It’s incredible how she captured the essence of our family, life situation, spiritual preferences, language, and love story in such a short time, turning it into a deeply personalized ceremony . She was made for this line of work!

It is with our sincerest gratitude that we say THANK YOU CECELIA for the most incredible day of our lives! We would highly recommend her to any couple as they embark on the journey towards their wedding nuptials.
