Samantha was a wonderful officiant for our wedding ceremony. Her readings were beautiful and touched many hearts. She is full of joy and kindness. I could feel the positivity emanating from her being. She took time to know about us as a couple and we submitted our self written vows for her to review because we trusted her and her opinions. From support to fun distractions from stress to the importance of the legal marriage certificate, Sam was there every step of the way. She is an awesome human and I can't say enough good things about her. I will attempt to come back with photos when we get them 😊🥰

Samantha did an amazing job officiating my wedding. From the first phone call, I knew she was going to be great and captured my vision perfectly. I love that I was able to see exactly what she planned to say ahead of time and she did such a good job, it took the stress out of this task. Samantha showed up early and my ceremony could not have gone better. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone hand down! Thank you, Samantha!

Our experience working with Samantha was amazing. I was so nervous choosing an officiant and had no idea where to start but as soon as I read about Samantha, and chatting with her, I knew she was right for us. She was exactly as expected, warm, welcoming, and overall an amazing source of support during an extremely emotional and chaotic day. I highly recommend booking Samantha as your officiant!

She was very understanding about our late start to the wedding. Her including our style into the ceremony and our special declaration of intent was perfect.
