Shari is amazing

Shari is really organized and help on repeating my vows during my ceremony because I was so nervous! But we made it through! We both have a wonderful wedding ceremony together. She brought lots of love during our vows and handfasting.

Jack and Kris Wedding- June 30, 2023

It was mid December of 2022 when I was struggling to find a wedding officiant.
One of my co-worker referred Shari’s colleagues, however, she is unavailable on our chosen date.
That is when Shari reached out thru email and introduced herself.
As an LGBTQ couple, Jack and I wanted someone who definitely understands our story and will give us comfort throughout the process.
That is how Shari made us feel right from the initial video/facetime meeting we had.
Without hesitation, we decided to ask Shari to officate our wedding the very next day.
Shari was great in communicating everything we need to know. She guided us in every tiny details regarding our ceremony.
Our wedding walk-through few days before the wedding is nothing but fun and filled with laughter.
Jack and I will always be grateful that you marry us!

Amazing experience with Shari

We were so fortunate to have Shari officiate our wedding. She is fantastic - very down to earth and has a warmth about her that made us feel comfortable and at ease. She is easy to work with, very prepared, and made the whole process a breeze for us. She also offers a run-through a week or so beforehand, which we took her up on. It really helped us feel even more prepared for the big day as she walked us through where and how to stand and all the motions. We highly recommend her!

One of the best parts

Shari was wonderful from beginning to end. During these times things changed a lot including our wedding date and Shari was responsive, understanding and hopeful. She listened to the ideas that we had and provided suggestions of her own to help. She accommodates values and ideas towards your vows and encouraged us to remember what the day is all about. She arrived on time, prepared and our guests loved her. An overall pleasant experience to work with her, and would strongly recommend to everyone.

Thanks so much Shari!

Wonderful, flexible, & thoughtful officiant

Shari was a wonderful support through the process of our micro-wedding that we planned and pulled together in a very short time period. Shari provided flexibility as we sorted through a date and location, as well as guided us through the marriage licence/certificate process in Ontario. We were very happy with the "paperwork only" marriage service Shari provided, which was simple yet kind and thoughtful.

Beautiful Ceremony thanks to Shari

We can't begin to express how happy we were to have Shari as our officiant. She was great about scheduling meetings with us leading up to the wedding including a walk-through of the whole ceremony. She was always professional and friendly. Her ceremony was beautifully written and delivered. Many of our guests appreciated how heartfelt and touching the ceremony was. We would absolutely recommend Shari to anyone getting married!

Shari is terrific!!

Shari is a very kind and welcoming individual who was super responsive leading up to the wedding. Shari also did a great job explaining all of the fine details about what to expect and making sure that we were comfortable with the plan for the ceremony and that we were prepared for the big day. We highly recommend!

Wedding Ceremony

Shari was very active in answering our inquiries. We were worried on the big day might rain so she was flexible to book us a backup date. She performed a very beautiful ceremony for us on our wedding day in our backyard.

Beautiful experience with Shari

We absolutely loved having Shari as our wedding officiant. She was so sweet and accommodating and was very flexible with changing our ceremony date (which we had to change due to bad weather). On top of being so nice and professional, Shari has the most amazing energy! We loved having her as our officiant on our special day! She is so friendly, warm and sweet and we absolutely loved having her at our marriage ceremony!
