We had such a wonderful experience with our officiant, Starr. She brought so much warmth, positivity, and heart to our ceremony. She also writes so beautifully. She truly captured exactly what we wanted to say and made everything feel personal, genuine, and full of love. The whole process was easy from start to finish, and she helped create a moment we’ll never forget. We’re so grateful she was a part of our day and would absolutely recommend her to any couple looking for someone with great vibes and a beautiful presence!

We hired Starr with less than a week before our wedding, and when I tell you she showed up and showed out, she truly did. After talking to several potential officiants, some were out of our budget and others were just… absolutely not. But from the moment we connected with her, we knew she was the right fit. Even with such a short turnaround, she delivered a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony that felt tailored just for us. She did the absolute best with the little time she had, and it honestly exceeded every expectation we had. Her professionalism, her calm energy, and the intention she brought made our day even more special. We are so thankful for her and forever grateful that she stepped in during one of the most important moments of our lives. If you need someone who can deliver with grace, warmth, and excellence, choose Starr.
