Denise was so wonderful to work with. She has such a warm personality, and really wanted to help us personalize our wedding ceremony. We wanted a non-denominational ceremony, and she was able to provide us with lots of different wording ideas. We picked bits and pieces and put them together, and she filled in the gaps. We planned a destination wedding, but we were able to meet with her once during the planning stages when we visited California. But she made the planning very easy and was open to lots of back-and-forth in editing the ceremony wording. She also has a very calming presence and truly seems to enjoy what she does. It was so special to have a wedding ceremony tailored to our relationship and what we wish for in our marriage. I really am glad we found Denise!

Denise was amazing. Great attitude, amazing personality, great nature, and joy for the celebration of love. Overall we are very pleased, she presented us with plenty of options and we had fun picking out our vows together. We were planning our wedding in a rush and this was no problem for her, our only regret is not getting to know her more beforehand.

We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Denise! She is so warm and friendly and now could not imagine anyone else as our officiant. She was so helpful and we could feel that she loves what she does! Such a pleasure working with her!

Denise has a great combination of professionalism and warmth in the services she offers. She was very helpful in helping us complete our vows and preparing for the wedding. We had run out of time and needed some extra ideas for performing a sand ceremony. Denise provided some examples and offered advice in the order of events for the wedding. We had left some blanks in the ceremony and she very professionally filled them in with a style that totally suited us and our ceremony. She handled all the little details that we missed, did not know about or just didn’t have time to do on the wedding day. Little things like tracking down the best man and maid of honor to have the license signed and then sending in all the paper work make all the difference when your wedding day is rushing by.

There is something about Denise that made us feel very comfortable and at home with her the first time we met her. She is very warm and friendly, and injects just the right amount of humor into everything. Having not been to many weddings ourselves, we also found it very helpful when she let us know of all the legal things we needed to take care of prior to and after the wedding. Denise also provided us with scores of passages and ceremony ideas that we could mix and match to our pleasure, and with her help we were able to craft a ceremony that we felt represented us pretty well. Only partway through the wedding rehearsal, one of our groomsmen told us that he felt we made the right decision in selecting our officiant. A couple of weeks after the wedding now, we still feel the same way.
