August 2023 wedding

Working with Barb Peters was a pleasure. She provides great advice to make the wedding go smoothly and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderfully pleasant, cheerful and professional person to perform their ceremony.

Barbara was an absolute pleasure to work with! We wanted our friend to perform the ceremony, but still needed an officiant present on the day to make everything legal. Even though Barbara did not perform our ceremony, she was always available to answer questions, and still helped me write my ceremony, providing guidance and templates, and ensuring all of our pre and post wedding paperwork was taken care of. I would absolutely reccommend Barbara! She was also way more pleasant to deal with than some of the bigger local companies we looked into.

My husband and I were married on NYE during the day and Barbara made it extra special! She really got to know both of us and was very accommodating in all areas of the wedding ceremony itself! We were given choices that fit exactly what we were looking for and felt so comfortable with her officiating our wedding. We could not have asked for anyone better!!

Barbara was amazing, her professionalism and ability to work with our ambitions on our wedding day made it so easy!
From the first contact, to greeting myself (the bride at the car) everything just flowed perfectly.
We cannot express our gratitude enough, our wedding would not have been the same without her and we cannot recommend her enough for anyone considering her services for their day.

Phenomenal Service and Amazing Experience

Barbara wed my mom and her fiance in June 2023 in at an outdoor ceremony. She was excellent to work with from beginning to end. She was very informative and responsive through out the process and made the experience very seamless. I would highly recommend Barbara to anyone looking for an officiant in the Ottawa. Thank you for making my moms wedding so special Barbara!
