This was the most perfect short and sweet ceremony! Marlene was very professional and helpful throughout the entire process from booking a date, decorations and allowing me to get ready at her Airbnb! Our day was stress free and the house and property are absolutely beautiful! Marlene definitely went above and beyond our expectations!

Marlene is a life saver!

Marlene was absolutely amazing with helping us with our wedding. We had to reschedule it and replan a wedding in 3 weeks due to Covid and she was so responsive and helpful from the get go. She did an amazing job performing our ceremony. She went above and beyond and let us use her property for the ceremony and she even decorated it for us. 2 days before our wedding was a goth/ Halloween themed wedding and she absolutely transformed the space! She was so kind and supportive through the whole thing and really eased my mind.

Dream wedding!

We were incredibly lucky to find Marlene's small and beautiful chapel and her venue! Marlene has done a fantastic job in planning and conducting our wedding ceremony. It was as beautiful and well organized as we could only imagine. It was a real dream wedding. We are extremely happy and satisfied with Marlene's service. She is very professional and pays attention to every detail of the whole ceremony. She even surprised us with a fantastic setup in the barn for an after-ceremony party. Her charm and personality also contributed to the happiness we experienced during the whole event. We hugely recommend Marlene and her services!

Above-and-beyond

From our very first point of contact to our wedding day, Marlene went above and beyond to make our day exactly what we wanted it. We used her AirBnB to get ready, the beautiful vineyard as the backdrop to our wedding ceremony, and the on-site event barn for our 30-person reception. In the planning stages, Marlene took the collection of photos we compiled as inspiration and brought it all to life and coordinated the amazing catering and staffing. It's evident that she's been doing this for many years!

Marlene has a huge collection of wedding decor and materials to complement the theme of anyone's wedding as she certainly did with ours. She took care of everything from the reception table settings, to our ceremony altar and surrounding decor. Some of my favourite items that Marlene supplied were the champagne wall, the rustic wine barrels used throughout the reception space, and the LED "Mr. & Mrs." sign that was set up above our sweetheart table.

All in all, I cannot thank Marlene enough for making our day nothing short of perfect!

Beyond Expectations

We reached out to Marlene when we decided to postpone our religious ceremony to a later date but still wanted to get married in the spring. Not only was she very responsive and follow up quickly, but she also wore multiple hats, including officiant, and wedding planner. She was very understanding and worked with our budget. She was also very accommodating, as when Ontario put in their 4 week lockdown in April 2021, she was very understanding and allowed us to move it to a few weeks later.

The ceremony itself was very beautiful and she did a wonderful job officiating. She was also able to say a few words in Spanish during the ceremony, which meant a lot to my now wife.

The venue itself was very exquisite, with the barn and the vineyards in the background.

We can't thank Marlene enough for making our day exceptional!
