Hands down, the best decision!

Rev. Claudine was our minister for our Sept 2023 wedding. We went with the custom ceremony package and it was the best thing we did. She was available with quick responses and customized and tweaked our ceremony so it was perfect and 100% represented us. She helped us fix our vows that we wrote and found a way to understand our sarcasm and wit and put it into moving words. Our entire group of attendees (80 ppl) were in tears and had so many compliments about our minister. She attended our rehearsal and did a fantastic job getting our wedding party to focus and be in line. She goes above and beyond for communicating with vendors to make sure you get the perfect picture, and the DJ knows what's going on.

I cant say enough positive things about Rev. Claudine, I am sad you only get married once because she is fantastic and wish we could do it all again with her!

Loved her sense of humour

Reverend Claudine was such a joy to work with. She made the entire process of planning the ceremony script, our vows and our readings super easy. We asked for a quick, simple and light-hearted ceremony and she delivered just that. We were extremely pleased with how she delivered our ceremony and we highly recommend her.

Excellent!

We would highly recommend Rev. Claudine. She was very warm and friendly and it was clear from the questions she asked that she wanted to write a ceremony that was personalized and in keeping with the vision we had for our wedding. She also provided cue sheets for the photographer, wedding planner and DJ. We are so grateful that we found Rev. Claudine. She really helped make our wedding day perfect.

Lovely intimate wedding!

We got married at Clarity Ranch on August 1st, 2021 soon after some COVID restrictions were lifted. Our families aren't in Canada so, we couldn't go back home any time soon so, we decided to invite our friends to our special day and have a short and simple marriage ceremony right here in Canada. Rev Claudine and her husband both have kind and beautiful souls. They hosted us in their wonderful farm with all the warmth we could possibly expect. Rev. Claudine made sure we got all we wanted in every step of the process. The wedding day itself is an amazing memory for both of us, we and Claudine were closely monitoring the weather forecast and figured there is going to be a thunderstrom on the wedding day. We had already planned so many things so, we couldn't really move up the date. They had set up a beautiful waterproof tent for us. Once we got there, the sun was out so we and the guests started photographing as much as we could, then the pouring rain started, thank god we had a beautiful tent to keep us nice and dry. Rev. Claudine performed our marriage with beautiful words and we also got a copy of the keepsake after that. Everything including the marriage ceremony went smoothly and we experienced three different beautiful weather conditions. If you ever decide to get married at Clarity Ranch, I assure you Rev. Claudine and her husband will do whatever they can to make your special day memorable for you. Right from the beginning, you'll just enjoy having a conversation with them and you feel like they are part of your family. Helia and Sobhan

Lovely Ceremony

We had our ceremony on their property and everything went as planned. Rev. Claudine is a very welcoming, hospitable, and professional officiant. Although we had many concerns because of the Covid situation and constraints in place, we worked together to address all the concerns and make it a very special, beautiful, and memorable wedding.
Since many of our family members could not make it to our wedding, Rev. Claudine made it possible for us to live stream our ceremony, and it was a great idea.
We searched a lot for finding the best officiant and place for our ceremony, and now we are really happy with our choice.

Best Wedding Ever

Very personable and loving atmosphere. Couldn't have asked for more. Rev. Claudine wrote our ceremony by telling our story, and gave our family a beautiful and special day we will never forget. Be sure to say hello to Ryan Gosling if you visit the Ranch!

Vow renewal

Claudine performed an intimate vow renewal ceremony for our 20th wedding anniversary with my husband and I and our two daughters. She met at Chateau des Charmes where we were married 20 years ago. During the ceremony Claudine spoke beautiful words to all four us and it was an emotional ceremony. I have already recommended Claudine to friends and family. She also presented us with a beautiful gift basket and a keepsake copy of the ceremony! Claudine really added such a special touch and made this a beautiful day that we will cherish forever!

The best you can get!

We had Rev. Claudine officiate our intimate wedding ceremony in Niagara and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was great to work with and perfectly executed what we were looking for (an elopement style ceremony with a small group of guests). She went above and beyond in putting together a beautiful script for the ceremony and making our day even more memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our day!

Wedding Officiant

“I love love!”

Originally from British Columbia, Rev. Claudine spent many years traveling and experiencing different countries and cultures. Although she called BC her home, she never truly felt as though she belonged there. It wasn’t until following her heart to a new city that she began to feel herself becoming the woman she was meant to be. Happily settled in Ontario since 2008, Rev. Claudine has never looked back, and can’t imagine living anywhere else than the quaint hobby farm she maintains with her husband in Wellandport.

Commonly referred to in her community as “The Duck Whisperer,” a few moments with Rev. Claudine while she introduces you to her team of ducks, horses, cats, dogs, and the newest addition to the family—Ryan Gosling (the vocally boisterous African goose), you’ll know what kind of a down-to-earth person she is.

Love and animals aren’t Rev. Claudine’s only passions, she is also a writer. Her blogs on family, marriage, relationships, mental health, and current events are continually added to her website while she continues penning her future novel and children’s series.

A few short moments on the phone (or at your first meeting) with Rev. Claudine, her compassion and sincerity will make you feel like you are with a close friend or family member. (The kind of family member you actually like to spend time with.) Rev. Claudine’s huge heart shines brightly through her eyes, and her love of painting pictures with her words makes her ceremonies unforgettable.
