Taya was great to work with - very professional, did a great job with keeping everything organized and helped us have a great ceremony. The planning process was super easy and it was great to see how she was able to take things important to us and put them together in a script that flowed great, mentioning our top memories, while adding in a sense of humor that allowed everyone to share the special moment with us. Her ability to keep things organized helped us with a peace of mind that throughout the day, leading up to the ceremony, we knew we would be in good hands and everything would go very smooth. We had a wonderful ceremony and day - thank you Taya!

We were recommended Rev Taya through an industry contact. We could not be more pleased with the service provided. We did her semi-DIY package and received SO MANY scripts and prompts from Rev Taya to use to create our own ceremony and vows. Her knowledge, resources, and personal commitment was beyond what we could have hoped for.

Amazing!! So easy to work with. Taya was simply amazing. She helped us every step of the way, was great with communication and did an awesome job incorporating handfasting into our non-religious ceremony. We couldn't have "tied the knot" without her!! Highly recommend as a wedding officiant.

Taya was so easy to work with! The questionaire she had us complete was very detailed but our ceremony was perfect and described us and our relationship to a "T" and I know it was because of all the details she asked for. We found out 5 weeks before our wedding that we were going to have to reschedule it (Thanks COVID). Taya came and performed a small ceremony for us on our original date and was so flexible with our multiple reschedules. The script she created for our ceremony was perfect and tied in so many personal connections to our lives that it truly did tell the story of our relationship and the important characteristics, traits, and activities that we share and enjoy together.

We could not have picked a better officiant for our wedding!! Taya was very organized and overall a great person to work with. She genuinely cared--she wanted to get to know us as a couple and made the process of planning less stressful. Her rate was also very fair and within our budget. Our wedding ceremony was beautiful, and we owe a lot of that to Taya! We can't express enough how great Taya was---we would recommend her to anyone!!!

Taya was so very cool and laid back and was so into our unique and funny ideas for the ceremony! She has some great templates as well to help guide you when picking ceremony style ideas.

Taya was wonderful to work with. She performed a lovely service and was very personable and professional. She stayed calm, cool, and collected - even when I realized I grabbed the wrong copy of my marriage license! She performed the service and even helped us set up some nice photos while my Matron of Honor ran back to the house for the correct license. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant they can rely on. Thanks again Taya for making my wedding day perfect!!!

Taya took our deposit and we went 2 months without hearing from her again. She doesn't answer her phone and her voicemail is full, and she's extremely lax about responding to texts and email. When we finally got ahold of her we discovered she had us down for the wrong ceremony type b/c she didn't look at the final contract. 4 months till our big day and we're out an officiant and threatening legal action b/c she won't return our deposit. STAY AWAY!!!!
