Katherine worked with us to tailor our special day to our wants and needs. We had a very unique wedding, and she was on board to make it as special, and as "us" as possible! She was a joy to work with.

Simply perfect!
Katherine is so wonderful, she worked with us to build a custom ceremony that worked for both of our families. She speaks very well and clear. All the feedback from our friends and family was positive. The best part was provided us with our vows on beautiful paper as a keep sake and took care of all the after the wedding paper work for us, which really is the best! We had a rehearsal with Katherine as well, which was super helpful. Overall, a great wedding experience with Katherine!! Thank you for making our day perfect!

Fantastic Officiant
Katherine officiated my wedding on October 12 2018. She was very responsive, showed up on time, offered very helpful advice, was so patient and calm when I was being pulled all over the place during the rehearsal and day of. She was excellent at arranging everyone for photos and made sure everything ran smoothly. She was exactly the presence I wanted at my wedding and she made the whole ceremony perfect. My only regret was that I didn't have more time to spend with her. I would highly recommend her!

Amazing! She is a very sweet human.
Katherine helped us arrange a location date and time for our wedding during the pandemic! We were so stressed and sad because we had to cancel our big Indian weddings that were planned for may 2020 long weekend. But we just wanted to be married, and finding an officiant to legalize our marriage during the COVID-19 pandemic was difficult. However, as soon as I spoke to Katherine she was so sweet. She found potential places for us to have a discreet beautiful ceremony. We got married in Guelph across the road from the house we met at. She helped us with our vows, personalized our wedding ceremony and was so quick and efficient to get all the signatures before we got caught! Even though no one hugged or shook hands, our wedding was beautiful. We can't thank her enough and highly recommend her to anyone looking to get married. She is amazing and super helpful! 💕

Saved the Day!
Katherine helped us out last minute for our non traditional ceremony. She was incredibly kind, patient and flexible during the process and completley eased our minds during a stressful time.
Her ceremony was lovely and she made sure things were just as we liked them. She went the extra mile with beautiful touches like printing our vows on a lovely cardstock that we will keep forever!
We are so grateful for her help and would highly recommend to any and everyone.
Thank you Katherine!!
Love, the Wynia’s.
