I smile thinking back on our ceremony and how perfectly she shared Dan and my love story. After getting to know us, our story and our thoughts on the ceremony, she weaved in aspects of our relationship, special verses and quotes, inside jokes, and advice from friends, all while capturing who Dan and I are - both individually and as a couple! She told our story so beautifully that our guests assumed she was a friend of ours or our families. They were surprised when we told them she was not, but lucky for us had become a friend that we were grateful to have stand beside us!

Sepideh made our wedding day so special and the rehearsal and months leading up to it seamless. Throughout the process she was very helpful & knowledgeable, talking us through the process step-by-step, answering questions, sharing suggestions and examples and ensuring that our ceremony came together better than we could have ever imagined.

I cannot recommend Sepideh enough! She is a wordsmith extraordinaire, and beautiful human with a kind heart and passion for weddings.

Sepideh officiated our wedding at Summerhill Pyramid Winery in August. There is a reason why she (Vida Ceremonies) has 5 star reviews. This woman is incredibly talented and just simply the best at what she does. I’ve attended a lot of weddings and I’ve never heard a ceremony performed quite like hers. She will take all your wedding ceremony wishes and make them come true!!! We were overjoyed with what was said and she brought a lot of us to tears (happy tears, of course!). If I could give her more stars, I would!! You will not be disappointed – this is the most personalized ceremony you can have!! :)

Sepideh created the perfect speech for our unusual wedding location and ceremony. She was funny and professional. I would definitely recommend her to anybody looking for an intimate, personalized wedding. She was just great!

Everything we had hoped our ceremony would be and more!

Sepideh was fantastic as the officiant of small, intimate wedding in July. She was incredibly professional, well-spoken and easy to work with along the entire process. We decided pretty late in the game to have a rehearsal for the day before the wedding and she was able to accommodate us which was really awesome because I feel the rehearsal answered a lot of last-minute questions I was having as a first-time bride. I’m really thankful we had this time to go over everything (although there were also many points along the journey to connect with her and ask questions).

My guests continue to tell me how beautiful the ceremony was and how great our officiant was in bringing everything together. I definitely recommend Sepideh and Vida Ceremonies to anyone looking for an officiant in the Okanagan (and anywhere else she provides her services)!

Sepideh is kind and sweet and caring and a joy to share our most special day with

Our dear Sepideh, from the moment we found you online over 6 months ago, we immediately felt a connection with the wonderful person you are and the beautiful energy you carry.

Thank you, from the deepest place in our hearts, for making our wedding ceremony this past Thursday June 24, 2021 feel so sacred and so blessed as we feel it, for us, for our dearest family and friends present, both in person and over Zoom.

Your care to get to know us and our Kiddo, our story and our history, made us feel so safe and so loved in your care, it made our ceremony one of pure joy and laughter with your wonderful stories of us, and of many many tears of joy, shared by all!

Thank you Sepideh for coming into our life to create this most beautiful memory of the blessed day we came together, for always & forever - you will be eternally in our life, in our hearts, in our thoughts and prayers, with ALL of our gratitude and love for you!

We look forward to having you officiate at more of our family’s and friends’ weddings, so this is not a goodbye, but rather a see you soon dear Sepideh!

Most sincerely,
Craig & Joana

Sepideh was wonderful to work with and made our ceremony memorable for us. We were uncertain as to which package we should go with (standard, semi-personalized and fully personalized) but decided to go with a fully personalized ceremony. Sepideh reached out to several close family and friends on both bride and groom’s side to really develop a story for our ceremony. She was kind and eager and a sincerely wonderful person to have as our officiant. Further, Sepideh did most of this on fairly short notice after we re-scheduled our wedding to early September. She really stepped up and one of the most consistent areas of feedback we received from our guests was about how personal the ceremony felt and how it seemed like she knew us outside of the wedding. That was really special for us. She also went above and beyond to add a ritual to our ceremony that was perfectly suited to us (it was her idea and she coordinated the whole thing).

We would recommend Vida Ceremonies to any one considering a wedding in the Okanagan!

Thank you Sepideh! You were sweet and professional, and led our ceremony with love and laughter. We could not have been happier. Thank you!

I don’t even know where to begin. Sepideh literally saved our ceremony. My husband and I had someone lined up and to keep things short, it just didn’t work out. It was a week before our wedding and we had no one to marry us, I was nervous, sad and emotional. I put out a plea on Facebook to see if anyone would be able to help with such short notice, to my surprise she was available, I called her immediately and we chatted for some time, she was so sweet and wonderful, totally put my mind at ease and was willing to give my husband and I the ceremony we really wanted for our special day. She knew we wanted simple and to the point, as we had written our own vows. My husband and I had a call with her about 3 days before the wedding tsp she could get the feel for the both of us, within 20 minutes of our phone call she has written up a draft for what the ceremony would entail and it was PERFECT!!! She blew us away. The day came and it was everything we had imagined and she made it so simple and easy for us and the ceremony was exceptional, we had people commenting on how perfect it was. She really made our day special and I just want people to know how incredible she is, I would 100% recommend her and will be doing so going forward. Thank you Sepideh, we appreciated you more than you know and I’m so happy it all worked out this way.
