  Rev. Barbara Kawa is an Angel

  Rev. Barbara is an angel. She was so easy to work with, professional, showed up on time and flexible whenever we had any changes. Before our big day, we had sent her our personal vows to look over and she reassured us that it was perfect. On our actual wedding day, her voice and demeanor helped calm us both down as we were super nervous walking down the aisle. She lead our ceremony with ease and it turned out amazing as we had incorporated our fur babies as part of our vows. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a fun and easy-going officiant! Thank you Rev. Barbara!

  Efficient and Accommodating

  Rev. Barbara was accommodating and welcoming from day one. Her professionalism and humouress delivery made our day so special. We were so blessed to have her as part of our ceremony. I would highly recommend her if you want a efficient service and peace of mind that everything is being handled appropriately.

  Pandemic Wedding

  Barbara was a sweetheart and from day one was attentive to our needs. We wanted a simple signing ceremony which was originally supposed to be in our home with a few friends. That quickly changed last minute with the lockdown to a park as no one was allowed inside. We chose a last minute Kariya Park venue and added the exchange of rings last minute, she was able to accommodate everything! Feedback from my family is she truly made the day with her humour and was the perfect officiant for our day! It was also the first snowfall of the year but nothing stopped us! Thank you Barbara for everything :)

  You are so welcome! I truly enjoyed officiating your wedding, it was so magical. Who knew that a wedding during a snowfall would be so perfect, and it was.

  Wonderful experience with Barbara

  The Mindful Choices process was easy and worry free from start to finish! We chose Barbara to officiate our COVID wedding. It was simple wedding. I emailed her last minute to change ceremony timing and she accepted it right away. Her presence and professionalism elevated our ceremony. Her confident, yet calming demeanour put everyone at ease; bringing out laughter, big smiles, and fun talking amongst us. It was absolutely wonderful to have Barbara there with us - thank you!

  Thank you so much Barbara!

  Barbara was so accommodating and kind. She made the process so effortless and stress free. We had a hiccup during our actual wedding date and she was very understanding and helped us a lot. She's super respectful of all cultures. The best choice for an officiant!

  Thank you so much Mahe for the great review! I am grateful to have worked with you too. I love different cultures and was glad I got to witness a complete Hindu ceremony.

  Barbara was absolutely amazing!!

  Barbara was fantastic! She was outgoing and her personality really matched ours which was nice. She was also very open so that our personalities could come through during the ceremony. Barbara was punctual for the ceremony which was great. She was also a very easy person to work with, pre-ceremony. A communication took place via email, she sent the vows and allowed us to pick specifics to cater to us and to make it personal, she was very prompt with her replies and so open to customizing and changes. It was a pleasure to work Barbara, weddings can be stressful and she made it very easy.

  A wonderful ceremony

  We were very happy with the service that was provided given that we got married during the pandemic, and all our needs were met. Our wedding officiant Barbara Kawa was professional, funny and sweet. We were happy we had Barbara lead our ceremony and highly recommend Barbara's service

  Wonderful, accommodating, and just what we needed

  Barbara officiated our wedding at our home. She was accommodating when things did not go as planned and was very pleasant. She had great communication with us leading up to the date and everything went as planned. We really appreciated her variety of sample vows and rings exchanges to personalize our ceremony and loved all the suggestions she had. She was great and you will be very happy having her officiate your wedding!!!
