Apr 26 2025 Wedding Review

Debbi was our wedding ceremony officiant this past weekend and she was amazing! She helped us customize our ceremony to exactly what we wanted, met with us multiple times in the lead up to the ceremony. She guided us through the rehearsal and gave us great suggestions on how to position ourselves to get the best photos & videos. On the day, she was loud and clear and delivered a great ceremony. Even got out of frame for all of our pictures! It was a pleasure working with you Debbi!

Debbi is a true gem

Debbi officiated our wedding last weekend and we could not be happier with how it came together. She was lovely to work with from the start, provided so much info and materials to ensure that our secular ceremony was exactly what we wanted. We had many guests comment on what a beautiful job she did and we couldn’t agree more. If you want someone who is professional, reliable, communicative, a beautiful person who will make your ceremony exactly what you want it to be then congratulations, you’ve found her ! Thank you Debbi for making our day so perfect

The perfect officiant 💕

We had a phenomenal experience with Debbi as our officiant! She was extremely professional and experienced. We had complete say in the vibe and script of our ceremony and were able to completely relax and enjoy own moment with her taking the reins. She was a calming presence that I didn't know I needed, not only through the planning process but also while choking back tears during our vows. I would recommend Debbi 100 times over!

Look no further, you just found your officiant!

Debbi was an absolute gift, swooping in 6 weeks before our event (our original officiant cancelled). Debbi is not only kind and generous of spirit but incredibly organized and genuinely loves her job! She walked us through the process of designing our ceremony step by step and had so many templates/options available for customization.
There was barely a dry eye in the chapel! We are so grateful to have found Debbi through Wedding Wire, felt like winning the officiant lottery!

Wonderful experience!

Debbie officiated our wedding in September 2023, and it was just so special. She took the time to get to know us, and listened to what we wanted and didn’t want. She gave us some options to review and then built the perfect, personalized ceremony. Our guests kept telling us that the ceremony felt like US. Which is exactly what we were going for. I highly recommend Debbie as a wedding officiant!
