A Soulful Commitment

.

s great. My husband and I were able to write our ceremony with the packet she provided, and it ended up being beautiful. She has so many options and it was so fun to pick and choose what to put in! We had so many compliments that the ceremony was personal and well-written. Dina was prompt in responding to all emails and was on time for our rehearsal and wedding ceremony, and she is overall just a joy to be around. We had such an amazing experience with her and I would recommend her and her company to anyone seeking an officiant.

r Zoom call, it appeared he forgot about our call. I didn't feel they wanted me to have a rehearsal, although I was more than willing to pay for it, thought it was important, and wanted to give everyone the opportunity to practice. I was told it wasn't really necessary, and it would be fairly simple and easy to follow. We had one anyway. However, the most distressful matter was the filing of our marriage certificate at the courthouse. I didn't legally change my name until after the honeymoon due to the reservation and plane tickets being made in my previous name. Our honeymoon was in April. In March, I sent paperwork to the courthouse to obtain 4 copies of my marriage license. When they came, I thought nothing of it and didn't open the envelope. When I returned and took the envelope and require documents to the register of the Willis, there was a problem. My marriage certificate was filed with the incorrect date. I had to have a motion typed for the Judge to sign and approve to allow the Register of the Willis to change our marriage date to the correct date in the county records. Then, I had to get 4 new marriage certificates with the correct date. I emailed Rev. Larson with this information. He asked how I'd like him to rectify the situation. I said just don't let it happen again to someone else. Rev. Mike was on time for both the rehearsal and ceremony. He was dressed nicely and pronounced my name correctly, which was important to me. He is a very nice man.

when we got stuck, and made sure we were well rehearsed the day before. We had lots of guests tell us it was the best ceremony they had ever seen. Highly recommend booking her for your ceremony!

nd unique. She's also great if you want to do any special ceremonies such as handfasting, unity candles, or roses to the mothers.

glad we decided to go with Dina as our officiant. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody looking for a unique and personal wedding ceremony!

fit our personalities. Dina took the time to know us as a couple and made our ceremony meaningful for us. Our guests loved our ceremony and we received many compliments on thoughtful it was.

at we wanted that day. I would highly recommend her to anyone of any religion!

needs for our special day. Not only that, but she was flexible and easy to work with when we had last minute detail changes. I would highly recommend her! She made our wedding ceremony a perfect reflection of our relationship.

on time with our ceremony outline and was even more amazing to work with! please consider her as your officiant!

rfect fit. Our guests repeatedly told us how beautiful the ceremony was and what a great job Reverend Dina did. I highly recommend A Soulful Commitment!

ng ceremony. The whole ceremony was honest, sweet, and the happiest moment of our lives. We are eternally grateful to Dina!!!

and so many options to choose from, and the help of writing our own vows, we could not have asked for anything more in an officiant. We requested a not so popular "celtic tying of the knot", and of course, the only thing I forgot that day was the ribbon for it! Dina handled the situation and found a back up ribbon, performed the ceremony wonderfully, and helped us awe our guests with this unique version of signifying an eternal promise in love. Dina is a pleasure to work with and have officiate your wedding - we would recommend her to anyone!

she was available for our date! Our wedding ceremony was so special and personalized for us, it made us laugh and cry. Our audience too! It was so emotional and special- I appreciate the time Dina took in getting to know us. One suggestion- do the "Things I Love About You" section if you can. We were soo smitten with each other's letters. We were over the moon! I also have a bit of social anxiety, and I was soo nervous having to be in front of so many people. But Dina made me feel so calm and I was able to stay in the moment. Thank you Dina!!

bride can't move their time. She refunded me but kept $50 and said it was her right. Do not hire this woman! She will screw you over

ame is John and forgot to mention and had to ask during my ceremony for my deceased family member’s names when we were doing the tribute to them in the ceremony. I would not recommend her at all. I will say thi, pre ceremony wise, she was great called and gave us many option as to what could go into our service. And was willing to customize it to us, But unfortunately on the day she dropped the ball big time and it’s something we will all never forget. Could have over looked if it was one thing, but my video of my wedding has everyone correcting her about my husbands and she brushed it off like it was nothing. We reached out to her after expressing our feelings and she offered to send back $100, that we would have it in 30 days…. It’s been 7 months. She charged us $400 I paid almost $1000 in extra expenses due to her tardiness, our photographer had to come back the next day and take photos of us as a new couple, and pay her more, plus we had to pay our musicians more too for staying longer. It was in the 30’s this day too and it was an outside wedding, no one was happy about that. It also pushed back our whole reception. All in all I would stay away. She read off her iPad the whole time and apparently it didn’t update right for our ceremony. In my opinion for the money we spent, we could have had someone else who was more attentive to detail on the day.

onal ceremony. Dina was always available to answer any questions we needed and to guide us as we moved through our engagement and into our marriage. She is sweet, smart, and made everyone feel at ease. We knew at our first meeting that she was the perfect officiant for us. She led our rehearsal which was efficient and made everyone feel ready for the day of. On the wedding day, she arrived early, 1,000% prepared, and led us into our marriage feeling confident and happy. We love Reverend Dina.

I wanted a secular ceremony that was short, yet meaningful and personal. Rev. Dina provides templates to create your own ceremony and you are able to add any personal touches that you would like to add. Our ceremony turned out perfectly! It was exactly what we wanted.
