Carol was our officiant for our small and intimate wedding ceremony last weekend and she was amazing! Friends and family alike commented on how nice and friendly she was and how heartfelt her words were. The laughter throughout the ceremony was non-stop and she made Aaron and I feel comfortable and calm. She was very flexible and accommodating with us and was very professional. Pricing was very reasonable as well. Choosing Carol to marry us was the best decision we made and we would without a doubt recommend her.

Wonderful ceremony!
Carol officiated our wedding and she was perfect! My mother even commented, saying what a wonderful job she did, and how she set the tone for the rest of the wedding. It was a beautiful ceremony, complimented by our very personable officiant!

We were extremely impressed with the service provided. Our ceremony was very simple, at our request, and the quick response time was very comforting, being that most our planning was somewhat last minute. Our officiant from Royal Weddings was exceptionally patient, and accommodating, and our guests had only pleasant things to say, at the end of our day.

Unique and beautiful ceremony
Carol did a fantastic job both creating our ceremony and performing it on our wedding day. She met with us ahead of time to get to know us, and we knew right away that her ability to inject some humour into the conversation while still preserving the seriousness of the ceremony was something we wanted. Our ceremony was uniquely us, and felt very authentic and genuine. It is my favourite moment from the entire wedding day. My mom even commented after the wedding that it felt like Carol had known us for years! Carol was amazing to work with and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a sincere and beautiful ceremony.
