Exactly what we were looking for!

We are still blown away by how incredible Margie was. From our first interaction to the months leading up to the wedding, she took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple, and ensured that our ceremony was exactly what we had envisioned. She kept us calm and on track, and sent us many helpful ideas and suggestions along the way. On the big day, Margie was the perfect mix of funny, wise, and loving, and all our guests were raving about her all evening. Margie, you are incredible and we are so grateful you were the one who joined us in marriage! Thank you so much!

Don’t hesitate to Book!

Margie was amazing. We had to change our location due to covid and she was so flexible! She was super responsive with all my questions and helped iron out the logistics of our ceremony! She sent options for our ceremony wording early on so we could review and set up a meeting for us a week before to go over everything! Day of, a few changes were made but she just adapted with us no problem! She was warm and inviting during the entire process and she felt like family during the ceremony! Absolutely amazing! Book her!

Great wedding ceremony!

Margie was great to work with and provided plenty of options to choose from for our ceremony script. We added a love letter ceremony and it was beautiful! We also wrote our own vows making it so emotional! Thank you Margie for guiding us through the process, highly recommend you to our friends! I’ll share pictures once they are ready!

Margie went above and beyond. She was wonderful to organize the day with. She made us more then comfortable with the entire experience. Margie helped us customize a ceremony that was perfectly suited to us. We were running.l slightly behind and Margie made us feel calm about the situation. She is graceful and lovely. We wouldn’t have changed a single thing ! Thank you again !

Simply Perfect!

We can’t say enough about wonderful things about Margie. She was professional, helpful, compassionate, and reliable. Margie went above and beyond to help our special day become a reality. We highly recommend using Margie; her level of expertise was extremely reassuring and certainly helped this jittery bride feel more relaxed and at ease. Thank you for giving us a wedding to remember forever.

My name is Margie VanEden-Olsthoorn and I am a wedding officiant licensed by the Province of Ontario. I am a Pastoral Chaplain with the Community Catholic Church of Canada, which is a fully inclusive church.

I am also a Master-Instructor of Integrated Energy Therapy®, a meditation facilitator and a Body Memory Recall® practitioner.

I live in Waterdown, Ontario with my husband of over 40 years and our cat Ruby. 3 kids, one grand daughter... a full and beautiful life!!

I hope you will allow me to help you create a memorable and meaningful wedding ceremony.
