Catherine was an absolute dream to work with. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and to understand our vision for the ceremony. She met with us on more than one occasion and took the time to thoroughly explain the legalities behind the marriage process in our province. She followed exactly what we wanted and did a beautiful job. She was professional and captivating for our guests to witness officiate our wedding. We were beyond pleased with her services and highly recommend to anyone looking for an officiant for their upcoming wedding.

Catherine was a dream to work with! We decided after years of indecision and changing plans to have a small, private elopement ceremony. We found Catherine online and met virtually to discuss her approach and found her to be very warm, accommodating and well-organized. She made the process easy and clear so that we were able to plan our ceremony without any stress.
Although ours was a small and casual ceremony, she helped make it special for us, providing a small table set up with some decorations to sign our paperwork. Catherine customized the service with a beautiful passage that spoke to us as a couple based what we shared with her on (through an easy to use online questionnaire) - which we really loved.
Catherine is an excellent communicator and followed up with us after the ceremony to ensure we knew everything was taken care of what the next steps would be. Thank you Catherine!

Catherine was wonderful to work with… advised us on everything we needed to do prior and after, and was incredibly flexible and accommodating to how we wanted our personal ceremony. She came to our house and was very kind and supportive. I highly recommend her to officiate an intimate at-home ceremony 🙂
