I cant say enough about Kristen Olynick! She was amazing! She made our wedding unique and very special. She customized our ceremony to reflect who we are as a couple and helped us to create vows that were relevant to our lives as well as to sound nice. I loved her suggestions which helped to make our day even more special, like our Wine box ceremony after our vows. If you are lucky enough to be wed by Kristen, your marriage is off to a great start!

Kristen was one of the best decisions I made when it came to my wedding! She was personable and very professional... she made me feel relaxed and comfortable every time we talked on the phone or met up in person. You can tell she really cares and treats every wedding as if it was her own! She personalized our ceremony and really made it about my partner and I... which is exactly what we wanted! And... all of our guests LOVED her! I received comments like "that was the best ceremony I have ever witnessed!" I was still hearing really positive comments weeks after the wedding about Kristen! I would recommend Kristen in a heartbeat to anyone... and did I forget to mention how beautiful she is? ;)

Our wedding officiant, Kristen, was outstanding! Kristen took on the challenge of adding some Spanish to our wedding ceremony and it was way beyond what we asked for. She really did an amazing job and our Spanish-speaking guests were delighted. Kristen took care of us from the start and made everything go so smoothly and stress-free. We were able to personalise a lot of things for our ceremony and it made it extra special. We feel lucky for having Kristen be a part of our wedding day. She is awesome!

Absolutely Wonderful!
Kristen Olynick was absolutely wonderful! We could not have asked for anyone more perfect to officiate our special day. She made our ceremony easy to plan and responded very quickly to emails. She did an amazing job customizing our ceremony and the flow and length was perfect! My husband and I were extremely nervous the day of, but Kristen's warm, calming presence put us both at ease. Thanks to her, our ceremony will always be an unforgettable, special moment for us
