Kind Words From My Couples
“Your expertise and assistance in creating such personal wedding vows touched not only Michele and I but so many of our guests. You created a one-of-a-kind intimate sunset wedding ceremony that will live in our hearts forever.” — Michelle & Chris
“We knew we wanted an intimate wedding ceremony and we feel so lucky to have found Jackie! I always remember her saying that she would take care of all the details of the ceremony and our job as the bride and groom was simply to show up and enjoy our day which we truly did. The best part is that she brought such a great energy! She had the ability to turn our wedding into such a romantic day in which everyone could feel was filled with love. Not only did she create such beautiful wedding vows for us, but the way she read them out loud brought on so many tears of joy and happiness in the very moment she was marrying us. We are so grateful that we have such a perfect day to always look back on.” — Boravy & DJ
Frequently Asked Questions
-
After you inquire, we’ll schedule a short discovery call to get to know each other. The booking is confirmed once the contract is signed & deposit paid. From there, we begin with a consultation and send you each about 10 questions that reach to the heart of the matter. We ask you to answer as though journaling - free form style and without comparing notes. We then absorb your sentiments and weave them into a very personalized love story ceremony. Prefer to keep it Sweet and Simple? After a phone interview together, we create a personalized ceremony for you and your loved one. No long questionnaires or journaling necessary! We’ll craft your ceremony based on your story, preferences, and values. Jackie will guide you through every step, from structure to vows to the final blessing.
