Christina was great to work with and we are very happy to have chosen her to officiate our wedding. She was quick to respond to any questions or updates to our ceremony. She was very helpful and checked in regularly. We highly recommend her for your wedding day!

Working with Christina and having her as our officiant truly made our wedding day extra special! After our plans to have a friend officiate our wedding fell through, we found Christina and reached out to her just a little over a month before our wedding. Even with such a short timeline, everything came together so seamlessly. We first got to know Christina over an introductory phone call and then met in person, and from the very beginning, she was so sweet, warm, and friendly. She was an absolute pleasure to work with! We felt completely comfortable sharing our love story with her, and she took the time to really understand who we are as a couple. From that, she crafted a ceremony that beautifully captured our relationship, reflected what we want for our marriage, and most importantly felt completely like us! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect person to help us celebrate such an important moment. We are so grateful to Christina for making our ceremony so personal, meaningful, and memorable. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple looking for an officiant who truly cares about making their wedding day special.

Creating Ceremonies that Tell Your Unique Love Story. I am always extremely happy and honored every time I receive an inquiry from a couple who is considering having me stand alongside them on one of the most important days of their lives. I have been performing weddings, elopements and vow renewals for over 20+ years. I have performed literally over 100's of weddings, and it is still my passion and what I love to do! your ceremony should be about your relationship and your commitment to each other. I want your ceremony to be personal, memorable, and most importantly, reflect your authentic selves. As your officiant, my role is to guide, support, and celebrate your union in a way that feels intentional, inclusive, and truly unforgettable. I view your ceremony as a sacred rite—not necessarily religious, but deeply moving and meaningful. Whether spiritual, secular, or something in between, I will tailor each ceremony to honor the unique bond that brought two people together. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a grand celebration, I aim to weave your journey into the ceremony so that every word feels true to who they are. I began what I call my "labor of love" in 2005 on the beautiful gulf beaches in Florida. I would meet couples and sometimes families and preside their wedding ceremony or vow renewal. I've had the honor of presiding 100's (literally) wedding, elopement and vow renewal ceremonies, on the gulf beaches of South Florida. In 2014 my husband I made the move to North Carolina which I lovingly call "Home". It is now my honor and pleasure to preside over wedding, elopements and vow renewals here in the beautiful Piedmont/Triad. Instead of the beaches, it's breathtaking vineyards, stately estate homes, country weddings on farms and barns, country clubs and many more. The words we say at a wedding are like no other. They are spoken from the heart and touch all who hear. They should be meaningful and memorable. Whether you prefer a sacred or civil ceremony, I will provide sample vows, readings, and blessings for you to choose from and we will work together to create a ceremony that is unique to you and your love story. I can't wait to hear from you! Please Visit my Website Blog Page for updates on package details, new features and timely advice. https://www.everaftervows.com/blogs.

Owner

I envision a ceremony that radiates warmth, authenticity, and love. From the moment guests arrive, I want them to feel the significance of the day—not just as guests but as cherished witnesses to a powerful union. My role is to tell the couple’s story with devotion and heart. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a grand celebration, I aim to weave their journey into the ceremony so that every word feels intentional and true to who they are.

officiant, photographer, and florist all together. The florals were done by Christie at Bow ties and Blooms, Pete Wright was our photographer, and Chris Tollette was the officiant. Chris helped us to create a special ceremony. Christie setup the ceremony decor and provided beautiful arrangements. We even booked and used her for our reception florals too. Pete took amazing photos. We ran into unexpected weather and the team was super accommodating to our last minute venue change and went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. I highly recommend the team!

mmediate family there, and Christina had a package that was perfect for our special day. The officiant, Chris, was amazing and she was so down to earth and made the ceremony extra special. Our photographer, Paul, was great and we can’t wait to see the photos! He was so easy going and helped us with posing for photos. Christina also offered advice on a bakery for a small cake and a salon for hair and makeup that day as well as how to obtain our marriage license since we are from out of state. We couldn’t have asked for a better day and everything went off without a hitch thanks to Weddings by Christina!

nique and perfect. We had several people that came up to us afterwards telling us how much they appreciated how unique it was. Christie had the perfect colors for our decor and the arch was even better than what I envisioned. Jake was patient as our photographer and worked with us to get the perfect wedding pics as well as family pictures. Trying to round up people when you’re in a timeline isn’t always easy but he was great and double checked that we covered all of our wishes for family pics. I will be honest that I wasn’t sure what to expect but it FAR exceeded our expectations! We definitely recommend the team.

Skylar L

Booking our elopement was a very painless and professional experience even 1100 miles away. Our officiant Chris was a doll. Very comfortable, easy going and straight to the point. ...

Our photographer Paul was personable and very patient with us and our 6 month old baby. Both of them played a huge role in making our special day wonderful. I highly recommend.

Brittany S

Chris and Paul helped make our wedding day super special!! I was weary reaching out and booking online when I haven't met Chris or Paul in person but they were both very responsive...

and helpful with questions. On the day of our wedding, it started to storm - we had a back up plan just in case but Chris kept an eye on the rain and was able to let us know an hour in advance where we would be able to have our wedding. Chris and Paul were so kind and funny!! Book through them, you won't regret it!!!

Although I was upset about my family not being there due to COVID-19, I appreciated Weddings by Christina for our day as beautiful and romantic as it was. Chris was just as sweet and beautiful in person as she was on the phone and through email. Jake had great energy and made us feel and look gorgeous in our photos. Thank you all for your outstanding work and dedication to our very special.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

s from home, you need all the help you can get! I’m so glad I found this wedding service, they helped me plan every aspect so we could have the perfect day. Christina was very helpful and informative, she responded to my emails in a timely fashion, and always picked up whenever I called. Chris Tollette officiated our wedding. She was a pleasure to work with. She did an amazing job performing our ceremony! We chose Chi Photography with our package, and Paul photographed our ceremony. He was also a pleasure to work with! We haven’t received our photos back yet, but I have confidence they’ll be beautiful. I also have to mention how accommodating Chris and Paul were. The week we traveled to Anna Maria it rained daily. As I’m sure any bride does that’s having a beach wedding, I watched the weather forecasts very closely that week. We had planned for a sunset ceremony, but Mother Nature had other plans. Our ceremony was planned for 7 pm, and at 10:20am that day I contacted them to see if we could possibly do it between 1 and 3pm when there was supposed to be a break in the rain. I heard back from them in less than 15 minutes and our ceremony was moved to 2pm. I couldn’t believe they made it happen! Our ceremony was perfect. Paul even offered to come back again later in the day to do sunset pictures with us if the weather permitted. I should also mention how affordable their services were! Thank you so much Christina, Chris, and Paul for helping Matt and I have our perfect wedding ceremony!

Then, she was great at the rehearsal and kept everyone organized. Finally, she was perfect for the actual ceremony. We really appreciate the work that Chris did. Our families can be overwhelming, but Chris handled them very well. We cannot recommend them enough!

f the way with promptly answered phone calls and emails. When the big day came we could not have asked for a more sincere Minister than Chris Tollette or a better photographer than Sally Ullman. Chris preformed the ceremony with the emotion and depth of someone who had known us for years. She seemed truly happy for us. Sally put us at ease the moment we stepped out of our car. She was bright and professional. We have gotten numerous compliments on all of our photos. I couldn’t recommend a better team or a better organization!

n was the photographer and I just can't say enough great things about them and the whole process! First of all, it was a surprise for my husband, and everyone was SOOO helpful planning every detail so that we pulled it off perfectly!!! Chris even helped me orchestrate everything from last minute bouquets(Ms. Scarlettes) and finding somewhere to get me in to do my makeup (Nicole at Acqua Aveda)...I don't know how I would have done it on my own! The ceremony was better than I dreamed...it was so personal and incorporated everything I asked for. I think it's important to note that she was so good with the kids, and I have 5 so that can be a challenge! All in all I was very impressed and had the genuine feeling everyone was just as invested in making the day as AMAZING as I was! Thank you again to all who helped make such a great memory for us!!!

as our officiant! She customized our ceremony and vows exactly how we wanted it which was great because we wanted a short and sweet ceremony and that's exactly what we got. We really appreciated that as it seemed to fit us so well and didn't seem like a generic ceremony. We have gotten a lot of comments on how beautiful the ceremony was!

Our minister was JR Carrel and our photographer was Courtney Dembek. We cannot thank them enough for their help with rearranging our ceremony last minute to accommodate our needs. Even changing our ceremony time the day before our wedding, while we at a family outing! Unfortunately our wedding day came on the eve or hurricane Irma, but both JR and Courtney ensured that we had a lovely ceremony, and our pictures are absolutely stunning. I have already recommended Christina and her services to two friends looking to elope, and I sincerely hope they choose to work with her. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

rds to the style of the ceremony. She provided us a few examples of wording for different ceremony options. We were able to make adjustments to it and then during rehearsal she made sure we were happy with the flow of everything. Christine has a very calming effect (which is what every bride needs) and made sure we felt comfortable and at ease. If you have your choice of officiant, I would recommend if Christine is free for your event. She was amazing and made our day even more special :)

JR did our ceremony and it was perfect...Bill was our photographer- he had great ideas for pictures and listened to ours as well. Planning a wedding from Ohio to Florida, within a month, and durning the holidays...sounds impossible? Not at all! Thank you so much Christina, Bill, and JR for making our day so special!!~Ty and Heidi

d email and connected us with the perfect officiant for us. We got married two weeks ago now, and not a day has gone by that a wedding guest hasn’t complimented him when talking to us about our wedding. We had a destination beach wedding, and did not get to meet Pastor Mason until our rehearsal the day before, but he far and above exceeded our expectations. Pastor Mason was incredibly easy to work with via phone and email, and arrived early for our rehearsal and wedding. When he assured me that our beach wedding was still going to turn out beautiful despite Hurricane Matthew (which hit Florida the day of our wedding), I felt much more at ease. He was very warm and friendly to our bridal party at the rehearsal and to all of our guests at our wedding. Our ceremony was incredible, there wasn’t a dry eye on the beach, least of all ours. He had asked us to answer some questions about one another via email so that he could include them in the ceremony, (favorite thing about one another etc.) and he perfectly recited what we had said about one another- capturing the tone and our words perfectly. The ceremony was so personable that guests assumed he was one of our family members. Pastor Mason hit just the right tone and made our wedding formal and traditional, but at the same time very personable, and even made our guests laugh a couple of times. Our ceremony was absolutely perfect and just what we wanted, but better! We can’t thank Pastor Mason and Christina enough!

Laura S

Oh my goodness where do I even start with how incredible Chris Tollette has been? First, she is incredibly attentive. She always answered calls and emails promptly. She is so ea...

sy-going yet also has a take charge attitude which is desperately needed sometimes during a wedding. But probably her best asset is her ability to problem-solve at the drop of a hat. We had a wedding where the flowers and mason jars were way too heavy to go on the shepherds hooks. She quickly came up with a solution to hook up smaller jars with twine and some of the flowers. Not to mention, everything was difficult because we were dealing with 50 mph wind gusts from the hurricane! Thank goodness she was there to help guide everyone along and keep the process going smoothly. The wedding turned out absolutely beautiful and I kept thanking my lucky stars that Chris was there with me each step of the way. I can't say enough about her and what an asset she is to the wedding planning process and the actual wedding day. If you are planning a wedding anywhere near Bradenton or Sarasota, you definitely need to hire Chris T. from Weddings by Christina. She is absolutely the best in the business!!

Hayley S

I planned my wedding in the backyard of our newly purchased home in a matter of two days. Needless to say, it was a very busy week! Christina and her team not only made it possible...

for me to pull off the most important event of my life on such short notice but made it completely stress-free. She and her team were incredibly professional, responsive and an all-around pleasure to work with, providing the kindness and warmth that should accompany any quality wedding service!

Tracy P

My husband and I travelled to Bradenton from the UK for our wedding. I found Weddings by Christina on a web search and from the moment I found them they were so helpful. I got an a...

lmost instant response from Christina who gave me all the info I needed for organising a wedding from so far away. Our wedding officiant Christine got in touch with us nearer the date and was a pleasure to deal with. Even late night emails the weekend before the wedding weren't a hassle for her! Even though we had a very simple ceremony with just the two of us, I'd have no hesitation in booking a more elaborate ceremony with Weddings by Christina as I have every faith they could pull it off and make it look effortless! We had Lisa as our photographer and she was fantastic! As we were leaving to go home the following week, she went out of her way to have the photos ready for us and even called by the house we were staying at to deliver the CD so it didn't get lost in the post! The photos came out better than we expected and couldn't have asked for a more patient and knowledgeable photographer. One final note on the cost of the ceremony, I found it to be very good value for money given the level of attention to detail and communication I had with Christine, Lisa and Christina. I only wish I could do it all over again!! Perhaps for our 10 year anniversary! Thank you again for some very special memories xx

We were married on Anna Maria Island on July 14th, 2015. Christina was so helpful and took care of every detail. We had never been to Anna Maria and she gave us excellent recommend...

ations for local vendors. I was nervous not being able to meet the vendors, but each one that we worked with provided excellent service. Our initial choice of photographer was not able to photograph our wedding. Christina arranged for a photographer on short notice and we were so pleased with her work. She also had a backup officiant on-call when ours was injured the morning of the wedding. Christina clearly has a relationship with the local vendors and takes care of every thing needed. We were so thrilled with how our wedding was stress free and perfect for us and our family. Cheryl and Eric

Our wedding was on April 17, 2010 at the Tradewinds Resort and we hired Christina early on to help us with all of the planning. That was the smartest move we made. She was wonderfu...

l right from the beginning and was there for us every step of the way all the way to the end of the reception. She went with us to help pick out flowers and decide on cakes but she never tried to sway us, she just sat with us, gave suggestions and helped us remember to ask the right questions of the vendors. We received so many compliments on our ceremony and reception and I told everyone that it was all because of Christina. We loved her!!
