Book with Ceri!

I cannot recommend Ceri enough! She was extremely professional, personable, and detail oriented. The wedding package she put together was curated just for us. She made sure we were happy every step of the way and was always available for questions we had.

She helped at the rehearsal ensuring everything would go smoothly the day of. On the wedding day she was the first to arrive making sure no delays would occur. She dealt with all the paperwork taking the stress away from us.

Our ceremony would not have been the same without her. Thank you Ceri for making our wedding ceremony something we will cherish forever.

Mr. And Mrs. Smith

Ceri went above and beyond what we were expecting as far as her attention to detail, her professionalism, and her great personality!
She was very detail oriented, very open to our ideas and needs, and it's a bonus that she made our ceremony just for us. We would hire her again in a heartbeat. She tailored every detail about our love story and made it perfect. There wasn't a dry eye in the crowd. We can't thank her enough for being part of our day, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services to any (soon to be) newly weds who are looking for a more cultivated, more non-traditional, and perfectly unperfect ceremony. She made herself available for us with our crazy work schedules, and everything in between (mind you, we also wernt the best at keeping track of our schedules, but she made it possible). She does it all! She can make your dream ceremony, wether it be traditional, or not, she is a magician. Please reach out to Ceri for your ceremony needs, she will help guide you through the process as she did for us! We can't recommend her enough!
Thank you again Ceri! You made our ceremony perfect!

Understanding, creative and well written.

Ceri officiated my ceremony this past weekend. She approached the work with a level of empathy as well as candour necessary to write a ceremony that captured our experience as a couple and created a blue print for love.

Ceri, was easy to speak to about our changes and happy to write new ideas often right in the moments we told her, she would live edit documents with us. She was on the ball and we never had to wait days to hear from her. I appreciated that as some vendors do not seem as eager to work with you.

Simply an easy going process, I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone in the area looking for an officiant. Especially to people who are looking for a more unique and expressive ceremony. I had guests compliment our ceremony that it wasn’t the “run of the mill” ceremony, and that they appreciated it wasn’t boring, and showcased us.

Another point to note is we had some issues come up, and Ceri made sure to help us through them in a way that can only be best described as full of compassion.

Most comfortable celebration ever!

We loved having her as our officiant. She was the ‘border collie’ of wedding with her flexibility, keeping things on track, responsiveness, and her professionalism. It was an all around great experience. She was able to customize our ceremony based off life questions we answered in a surgery for her. It was very intimate and precious. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone.

Amazing service

Ceri was phenomenal! She helped us so much and created such a wonderful ceremony for all of us in attendance to enjoy. She captured our story perfectly, and we loved all the added humor throughout the ceremony--it truly helped calm the nerves too! We couldn't have asked for a better celebrant and we are so happy with the way everything turned out. If you are wanting a celebrant who takes the time to learn your love story, get an idea of who you are as people and captures your guests attention, Ceri is your person!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
