Amazing Ceremony

There is no one else I would have rather had conduct our marriage ceremony, and I can’t speak highly enough of Cathy! The ceremony was personalized, light hearted yet totally full of love. So many of our guests said it was the best ceremony they’ve seen. We appreciated all of Cathy’s guidance and support leading up to our wedding day, on the day, and after.

Perfect officiant!

Cathy was so organized, kind, professional, and did an amazing job tailoring and personalizing our wedding ceremony. We received many compliments from our guests about how great she was and we 100% agree! We would also recommend hiring Cathy for the ceremony rehearsal as she took us through all the details step by step and everyone knew what they were doing perfectly on the day of.

Beautiful Personalized Ceremony

We had interviewed a couple officiants and then we met Cathy! She was so sweet, attentive, professional and accommodating, immediately we knew she was the one we wanted to be apart of our special day. Planning a wedding even as small as ours was so stressful but the one thing we didn’t have to worry about was the ceremony. Cathy was so amazing, she took the time to get to know us and incorporated our life and love story in a simple 20 minutes ceremony, everything was personalized! She spoke what was in our hearts…in a way that we weren’t able to express ourselves. The ceremony was the best part of the entire day, something we will never forget. Cathy also made sure we would never forget by gifting a little package which included a booklet of the ceremony. In the future when we decide to renew our vows, Cathy will definitely be the first and only choice! She offered way more than what we could’ve asked for ♥️

Wow wow wow Cathy!

It was an absolute joy to hear the beautiful words that you put together for our mini-mony. We loved all of the details that you put towards our keepsake box and ceremony booklet that we have shared with loved ones who were not at our wedding. A very heart-felt thank you from both Michael and myself.

Can't recommend enough

Cathy is super accommodating, we live 8 hours away in Saskatchewan. We did many meetings over zoom, and she explained EVERYTHING to us.
Very professional and organized. She will go over every detail she could possibly need (even what colour your wedding party is so she doesn't stand out)

One of our guests said, "Just when I thought she was about to make me cry, she'd bring me right back in with a good laugh."

If the price point is scaring you off, Cathy is totally worth it. So worth it that we asked our photographer to take a picture of us together, and we gave her a wedding favor for helping us make our ceremony so perfect 💕

Absolutely spectacular!

We met Cathy via zoom amid the chaos of Covid, and she did not let down. She was and absolute pleasure to work with from day one. When we finally got to meet with Cathy 2 weeks before our wedding to get a glimpse of what our ceremony would look like, she had me falling in love with my husband all over again. She is and incredible story teller, she made us laugh, cry and truly painted the most beautiful picture of our relationship. I would recommend working with Cathy 1000 times over.

Perfectly personal and heartfelt

Cathy was so amazing while working with my husband and I on our ceremony. She really made the effort to get to know us both right from our first meeting and then dove deeper throughout the whole process. We feel so honored to have had her do our ceremony. The ceremony she curated was heartfelt, and even our guests could feel it. We had so many compliments from those present in person and even through our video stream! It felt so perfectly us and we are so thankful to have found her. We cherish our booklet which was especially helpful when reading it to my grandparents who couldn't make it/are not tech savvy enough to have watched the stream. It was like they were there with us and gave us the opportunity to relive that magical day.

Thank you so much Cathy!
