Highly Recommend Tade for All Your Ceremony Needs!

We LOVED having Tade do our wedding ceremony!!! She was easy to work with throughout the process of planning, which was amazing especially with all the other wedding tasks we were having to plan. From getting a script she had initially written to hearing our (very minor) edits on our wedding day, Tade was able to make our ceremony flow really nicely.

We wanted a traditional ceremony along with a handfasting ceremony and Tade managed to seamlessly fit in every detail we wanted without making it feel too long and drawn out.

Highly recommend Tade if you are looking to add meaning and lightness to your wedding day!!

Warm, Thoughtful and Personal

We’re so happy we chose Tade to officiate our wedding! She was an absolute delight to work with from the very beginning. She took the time to really listen to our story and get to know us, and personalized our ceremony in a way that felt meaningful and true to us.

We especially appreciated her thoughtful suggestions for incorporating cultural elements into the ceremony, which made it feel even more personal and special. She also gave us lots of helpful, practical advice leading up to the wedding to make sure everything would run smoothly on the day.

Tade brought such warmth and care to our ceremony, and we’re very grateful she was part of such an important moment in our lives. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice!

The Marrying Lady is the Best Choice for Your Wedding

The process with Tade was so smooth, and the day went over so well. Guests still tell us how great she did for the ceremony. Tade also went out of her way to incorporate my wife's Korean heritage into the ceremony, which we both really appreciated.

Highly recommend!

Best officiant of Toronto!

I couldn’t have asked for a better person than Tade to officiate our wedding. We were running 20 mins late for our appointment and she calmly waited along with our family. She explained us the entire process and it was done within 10-15 mins. She’s funny, kind, courteous and a joy to talk to. Very reasonably priced and knowledgeable about the marriage documentation. Highly recommended as the best officiant to start your married life!
