Made the day so special!
We contacted Tammy to officiate our wedding on a friend's recommendation; I had been in the friend's wedding party several years prior so I already knew how lovely she was. We arranged for a Zoom meeting to discuss what we were hoping for, bounce some ideas around, and for her to get a feel for what we were like as a couple to help with personalizing our ceremony. She drafted a few options for our ceremony and left it entirely up to us to pick and choose which parts to keep so that it would feel meaningful to us. We were actually surprised (in a good way!) at how meaningful her words ended up being to us both as people and as a couple right out the gate.
The big day went off without a hitch - Tammy was SO supportive onsite, checked in with both of us prior, and her big smiles and positive energy helped calm our nerves. We wrote our vows in a book that she held onto until it was time (so we didn't have to worry about losing it) and she handled everything with our paperwork. We just had to get our marriage license, and she sorted everything else, even including some keepsakes (printed ceremony and wedding certificate).
But even beyond that, the thing that floored me most was that Tammy was able to incorporate an unexpected addition to the ceremony - as we'd mentioned we are both huge science nerds, she snuck in closing remarks that combined the concepts of love and science in such a beautiful way. It was a wonderful surprise for us.
The kicker was finding out she'd actually married several couples who were guests at our wedding - a testament to how highly recommended she comes. I will also add that the value of her services was fantastic - in my researching, I found other officiants charged far higher fees for far less value than what we had going with Tammy.
Thank you for making this day so wonderful and easy for us! Your name will be first on our list if we are ever asked for recommendations in future.Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
Thank you for your incredibly kind words Ashton! They mean so much to me. So many things to love about your ceremony - seeing couples that I have married was such a treat. I was thrilled when you and Jesse shared that you were science nerds when we did your ceremony consult ha! ha! Being able to add something about that in your ceremony was so fun for me! My goal is to always create and perform unique ceremonies that are a true reflection of my couples :). Wishing you and Jesse all the very, very best!

Perfect Officiant
Tammy was such a wonderful officiant, we couldn't have been happier with our choice to hire her. She was professional, punctual, and had a wonderful aura about her. Our ceremony went seamlessly with her guidance, I can't recommend her enough!Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
How nice to hear from you Veronica and Brody! Hard to believe your ceremony was almost one year ago. I thought New Beginnings Greenhouse was the perfect backdrop for your Fairy Garden Vibe - so unique to the two of you! -

How lovely!
Tammy was very respectful and helpful with the flow of our ceremony. She made sure that we had the ceremony we were dreaming of and even added our cats in the ceremony. It was an absolutely wonderful time and we are so glad that we chose Tammy to marry us! Thank you!!Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:

5 ⭐️ review
Tammy was amazing from start to finish at our wedding. From the very first consultation call we immediately felt comfortable and confident in her abilities. My husband and I had a mixed culture wedding, we also did our ceremony and reception in the same evening so there was ALOT going on. Tammy made the process smooth, seamless, and she kept such a positive and radiant attitude during the entire event. She was easy to work with, responsive, and respectful. We were so grateful to have you there to experience our nikah with such an open heart and mind as well as step up and officiate our civil ceremony. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts TammyMeaningful Ceremonies's reply:
Talha and Caitlyn - thank you for your kind words. I so loved being a part of your culturally diverse ceremony. The pageantry of it all was stunning! What stands out most though was the sweet energy between the two of you throughout. Really lovely!! -

Incredible Officiant
We couldn’t have been more grateful for Tammy’s help and expertise in marrying us. She was incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and supportive throughout the entire process. Her guidance during the rehearsal helped our whole wedding day run so smoothly and made us feel so confident going into the ceremony. Tammy brought such a calm, professional, and caring presence to our day, and we truly appreciated everything she did for us. Highly recommend Tammy!!Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
Kristine and Brandon - your intimate ceremony at the Pendennis Building was just so lovely from beginning to end surrounded by truly thee most important people in your lives. It was my absolute honour to have married your sister Kathleen to Dustin in 2019 and then be asked back to perform your ceremony! There is no greater compliment!
Wishing you and Brandon (+ 1) all the very best :) -

Tammy Banting
Tammy was absolutely incredible as our officiant. She was responsive from the get-go and had lots of helpful tips for our ceremony! She was able to customize our ceremony exactly how we liked it and was super personable throughout the process. I would highly recommend her services!Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
Joanne and Carson - what I loved most about your ceremony is it was a perfect blend of humorous and heartfelt! Carson's joke on his best man regarding the rings was so funny :). Warm, lighthearted ceremonies are always a pleasure to perform when that is what bride and groom want. Bell in Scona was a lovely backdrop for your meaningful ceremony! -

Beautiful Ceremony!
Tammy was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was so kind and down to earth, we connected right away. Our zoom consultation was so easy, we had no idea what to expect or how to plan a ceremony but Tammy flawlessly walked us through everything. Just with that conversation she came up with 2 options of to use for our ceremony, both were lovely, but one just fit us perfectly. Tammy showed up early to meet us and see the venue. She preformed a beautiful intimate ceremony for us and our small family, she even included a small shout out to our one cat who had made an appearance in our zoom consultation in the ceremony. She took care to step to the side during our vows and for the first kiss so both those moments could be just for us and we received a lovely copy of the ceremony along with our temporary marriage certificate. Tammy really helped make our small ceremony just that little bit extra special, I would 100% recommend her!Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
Danielle and Chad - your intimate ceremony in that beautiful garden was just so lovely. It was so obvious how your ceremony was just about the two of you and that made it such a pleasure to perform.I loved the warm and sweet energy between the two of you. You really did look like a storybook princess Danielle. Beautiful! -

A very special day
Tammy was amazing from the start of our experience working together to the finish. In our first meeting she got to know each of us and create the perfect ceremony that seemed so fitting for our personalities. Everyone told me they were so moved. Thank you Tammy for being apart of our special day!Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
Cornerstone Wedding Venue was just the perfect backdrop for your ceremony Amy and Brayden! I loved the gorgeous photos of the two of you capturing the joy that your ceremony was bringing you! You and your wedding party look amazing! Adding in the First Nations Dancer made your wedding day incredibly special I am sure. Your sweet energy made my role such a pleasure! Thank you -

Tammy was amazing
Tammy was the perfect officiant. She gave us multiple options for ceremonies and provided a lot of flexibility if we wanted to customize things. At the time of rehearsal she gave clear direction that everyone understood, and the wedding day went smoothly. Thanks Tammy!Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
HI Blair and Ashley - thanks so much! One of the things I most enjoy is creating ceremonies that really are a reflection of my couples. You two were so easy to create for because your personalities were so light and fun! Ashley really did look like a storybook princess and your families were so lovely. I thought your ceremony was perfect from the very funny start to the end! -

Brent and Carley October 2024
Tammy was so great. She was fun, professional, not too sappy and she has a nice voice too! I know a lot of wedding officiants can be control freaks too, she is not. Super laid back and will do whatever you want her to do for your custom ceremony. :)Meaningful Ceremonies's reply:
Carley and Brent - it was so much fun being a part of your wedding day! You were both so laid back yet all the details of your day were perfect! Easy to tell that your big day was about sharing it with great friends and family that you love. My number one goal is to reflect the vibe that my couples are looking for - for me, it is always about what my couples want in their ceremony. All of the small things that make a ceremony memorable! -
