Faith is AMAZING! It is a month after our wedding, and people are still raving about how beautiful our wedding was. They said they felt honored to have witnessed the most beautiful ceremony. There were tears, there were laughs, it was everything you could possibly want in a ceremony, and more.
As a wedding vendor myself, I knew I wanted to work with Faith. She is highly recommend by so many, and it is for good reason. She meets with you and customizes the whole ceremony. She gets to know each couple in detail. You will be blown away by how prepared, and professional she is. And she has the most calming presence. Standing in front of your family and friends saying your vows isn’t the easiest thing to do, but Faith puts you at ease and makes the whole process easy, and enjoyable.
Our wedding was perfection, and Faith is a big reason for that. I will recommend her to any one and every one moving forward. Thank you for taking such good care of us Faith. You really are a gem in this industry.
Sincerely,

Rev. Scott Kuenzel Elliott was absolutely wonderful. He was a pleasure to work with. Rev. Scott was personable, professional, and detail-oriented. We had multiple guests approach us at the wedding to comment on how great he did. I would highly recommend him to couples. He made the whole experience such a breeze. We met with him on multiple occasions to ensure we knew each step of the way for our ceremony. My husband and I enjoyed the time spent together filling out his survey and it was fun to read the Rev. Scott's rendition of our love story and such. We genuinely enjoyed working with him. Highly recommend!

We received so many compliments on our ceremony and we give all the credit to Rev. Lavender! We couldn’t have been more pleased.
She works with all types of couples, including LGBTQ families. I would highly recommend Rev. Lavender for anyone looking for an officiant!

Faith did an amazing job at our wedding and leading up to it. She helped to walk us through all the fine details before the day and made us feel very prepared. She did a beautiful job capturing our story for our guests and she is so easy to work with. She is warm, friendly, kind, and caring - exactly what is needed on wedding day!

Faith was our officiant for our 9/14 wedding and was so kind and easy to work with leading up the wedding. We met with her over Zoom several times and felt very prepared the day of the wedding. However, there were a few big mistakes made when she was reading our ceremony (mixing up names and important dates) that we were disappointed about. For a 25-30 minute ceremony, it was important for us that it ran smoothly and stuck to exactly what was on the proof that we reviewed, and that wasn’t the case unfortunately.

We couldn’t have been happier with Faith as our officiant! From start to finish, she was a dream to work with. Her organizational skills and proactive approach made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. She checked in with us multiple times well in advance of our big day, ensuring that every detail was perfect and aligned with our vision.
What truly stood out was her dedication to crafting a personalized ceremony. She prepared a draft based on our preferences and welcomed our feedback, making thoughtful edits to ensure it was exactly what we wanted. On the day of our wedding, she was eloquent and poised, delivering a ceremony that was both heartfelt and memorable.
If you’re looking for an officiant who is not only professional but also genuinely invested in making your day special, we highly recommend Faith. She played a key role in making our wedding day perfect!

Rev. Faith Lavender was such an important and special part of our wedding. Her personality is warm and attentive, as she spent a lot of time with us on zoom calls and reading our personal information and love story. She personalized our ceremony as if she had known us for years. Many guests commented on what a special and unique ceremony it was. Guests especially liked listening to Rev. Faith tell about how we met and what we love about each other. They also loved passing our rings around, holding them to their hearts, and imbuing them with their love and prayers. Rev. Faith is one of those special people that knows how to touch the hearts of others. I am grateful to have found her- she made the most important part of the day magical for everyone.

Faith officiated our wedding in 2021, and her creative ideas and warm, enthusiastic presence made our ceremony truly memorable. Her ability to blend tradition with unique, personal touches ensured that our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more.
When we faced the heartbreaking loss of our baby daughter this spring, we turned to Faith once again for support. She guided us through our grief with incredible sensitivity and grace, helping us create a beautiful ceremony to honor our daughter and the life she should have had. Her comforting words and compassionate demeanor brought solace to us and to everyone who attended. Many of our friends and family who attended both our wedding and our daughter’s memorial service have told us how outstanding they found Faith to be as an officiant. We cannot recommend her highly enough for any life event that requires both professionalism and a deep personal touch.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Faith officiate our wedding, and the ceremony she put together was nothing short of magical. Faith’s personalized approach, attention to detail, and genuine warmth made the process as smooth and enjoyable as you’d hope writing vows and planning a ceremony would be. She was able to pull together elements of our history and experiences that have shaped us into who we are today while still maintaining a focus on the present ceremony and future to come. We highly recommend Faith to any couple looking for a ceremony that reflects who they are and their unique love story.

Earlier today, Faith and her husband Scott celebrated the mass for my recently departed wife. A few days earlier, they came to my home, met with me and my step daughter and talked with us at length to obtain as much knowledge as they could about Mary and her background. The services were today, and I have to say that, although I just recently met them, they are two of the nicest people I have ever had the pleasure to meet in my life.
They are both warm, compassionte and completely understood the magnitude of the pain with which we were dealing, yet they were so patient and comforting to us both. Even at the morning service, we had a bit of a microphone problem and we were able to chuckle as Scott was 100% ready with his own equipment as Plan B.
They both exude love and peace and I'm 100% sure that God brought them into my life at this most terrible time to support us and assure me I will have the strength to move forward and honor my wife and our family for the remainder of my time here.
My warmest thanks to Faith and Scott for everything they done for me and my family.

Faith was the officiant for our wedding this past September and she was nothing short of incredible! She worked with us to build an understanding of our relationship and crafted a heartfelt ceremony that told our story and perfectly blended in all the elements we hoped for. We had so many people coming up to us during the reception to ask where we found our officiant and to compliment us on how beautiful the ceremony was. She was easy to work with and put in so much effort to give us a memorable ceremony. We appreciate all she did and would recommend her to anyone!

Planning a wedding ceremony is serious work. Being able to distill a couple's love story into an awesome ceremony must be such an undertaking, but Faith Lavender absolutely nailed our ceremony from the jump.
Faith's ceremony perfectly captured us, our love story, and how to truly convey that to our friends and family. As true wedding newbies, it was so beneficial for us to have her guiding light shine on our experience. We greatly appreciate the time that she took to hop on Zoom with us before our wedding and to also huddle up with us right before the ceremony when the jitters and slight chaos of the moments before our wedding started to set in. Faith's recognized the moment that we both needed before our ceremony like a true pro. That awareness, in addition to her spectacular preparation certainly did not go unnoticed by us.
If you're looking for an officiant to truly give your wedding the tender love and care it needs, Faith Lavender will answer the call.

If you want your wedding ceremony to perfectly capture the true essence of your relationship and love story, Faith will absolutely blow you away with how thoughtfully and intuitively she weaves together every detail, emotion, and moment into a harmonious and unforgettable experience. Like many others, our wedding had to be rescheduled more than once and Faith was SO flexible, reassuring, and positive through every moment.
I come from a family of wedding photographers and have had the privilege to witness many of Faith’s ceremonies through the years. She officiated my sister’s wedding in 2015 but I knew long before then there was no one else I’d rather have officiate mine!
She took all the care in the world to understand our journey as a couple, incorporating the romance and joy from both of our perspectives to craft the most personalized and beautiful ceremony. People have continued to tell us how moving and special our ceremony was, and have even been told that it inspired some of our friends’ ceremonies!
Faith’s ability to create an atmosphere of warmth, authenticity, and magic is unparalleled, and we are so grateful to her for sharing this important day with us. Thank you, Faith, for EVERYTHING! Love, Jocie and Riley

We were so grateful to have had Reverend Faith Lavender officiate our wedding ceremony. She was wonderful to work with — professional, kind, and understanding. Our biggest priority was ensuring that all of our wedding guests and parties felt welcome, understood, and loved, regardless of their identity, religion, etc. We wanted to ensure our officiant would also be someone who was accepting and loving of all of our guests. We were so excited when we found Faith, and we truly couldn't have chosen anyone better to officiate our ceremony.
She did a wonderful job sharing our love story and depicting our relationship through her words. The ceremony was perfectly timed and had a perfect balance of seriousness and humor, which we requested. I would recommend working with Faith time and time again!

Rev Faith Tracy Lavender officiated our wedding April 15, 2023. Our ceremony was so special, personal, and memorable! She was an integral part of guiding us through the process of how to write our love story, choosing our vows, and recommending the loving cup ceremony. She has such a calming presence. Our ceremony left us awe struck! We are still receiving so many compliments about our wedding ceremony! Highly recommend!

We are so happy we hired Scott Kuenzel to officiate our wedding - he met with us a number of times to get to know us on a more personal level, which made for an incredibly meaningful and intimate ceremony.
My husband and I are not that spiritual, so we also appreciated how flexible he was regarding religion as it pertained to the language used during the ceremony.
We felt like he really understood our needs and communicated our love story to our family and friends in a unique and thoughtful way.
We would recommend Cape Cod Ceremonies time and time again!

We had Rev. Scott for our wedding ceremony at the Ocean Edge resort on the Cape. Scott was amazing! He prepared a personalized story for us that made the ceremony so much more meaningful and beautiful. We were a bit nervous about our big day and had no idea where to start but Scott made us feel so comfortable and made it very easy for us to get through the entire process. He was a very professional, kind, and confident presence which was exactly what we needed. We have no regrets at all and would recommend him to everyone! Thank you again Scott. You were wonderful!

My husband and I had Rev. Scott Elliott officiate our wedding and we cannot express how thankful we are to have chosen him! Not only does he take the time to personalize your ceremony, he will revise and work with you to make sure its perfect. He was so personable and his aura was incredibly calming on the day of our wedding. He really did ensure that we felt at ease on a day that can be quite stressful. If I were planning my wedding all over again, I would choose him in a heartbeat. I would highly recommend Rev. Scott to anyone looking for a wedding officiant!

Scott was absolutely incredible, we could not recommend him more. Prior to our wedding, he took the time to get to know us to make sure he captured our personalities and our story in our ceremony. He took the time to explain everything we should expect out of the ceremony and helped us feel as prepared as possible. The flow of the ceremony was amazing and he really made it feel personal. All of our guests were moved and blown away by his words and have told us it was the most touching ceremony they’ve ever witnessed. Thank you, Scott!

We were referred to Rev Scott by our wedding planner. From the first moment we had the opportunity to speak by telephone, our experience was nothing short of amazing. Rev Scott is genuinely sincere about helping provide a ceremony that is tailored to the couples’ interests. He invested in us and wanted to get to know us personally so that he could in turn design a ceremony that would exceed our expectations. Which is exactly what he did. I feel as is we’ve made a lifelong acquaintance with Rev Scott and we’re both looking forward to reconnecting with him on our next visit to the Cape. A test of making any choice or decision is would one make the choice all over again if given the opportunity to do so. We would gladly hire Rev Scott and we would encourage anyone seeking his services to allow him to provide you with an experience of a lifetime. Thank you Rev Scott!!! Peace and love always!!!

Rev. Scott crafted a beautiful ceremony that helped make our Wedding day so special! He took the time to meet with us beforehand, listen to our requests, and ensure the ceremony would go smoothly. On the day of the Wedding, he arrived early before the ceremony and met with both of us separately, which meant a lot on such an emotional, exciting and nerve-wracking day! We received many compliments from guests stating it was the best ceremony they had ever heard! Rev. Scott has such a warm and welcoming spirit and we are grateful he was part of our Wedding day.

We will be forever grateful to Faith for making our ceremony so special. She is such a warm person and was a joy to work with. She made it easy to personalize the ceremony and made sure we were comfortable with every element. She is a true professional and was able to remind and help us with every detail along the way.
Her personal touches on the ceremony were perfect and moving. Our guests let us know that they were also moved — yet she still worked in bits of humor we were hoping for.
Thank you, Faith, for making our day so special!

We owe so many thanks to Faith. She was fantastic before, during, and after our wedding.
Before the big day, she scheduled multiple zoom calls with us to explain the entire ceremony process, understand what we wanted ours to be like, and get to know us to add personal touches to the ceremony.
The day of the wedding, everything went great and Faith facilitated a beautiful ceremony. She was flexible too, and cut down the length of the ceremony (after discussing it with us first) to get our guests under cover before they got soaked by the fast-approaching rain clouds.

I highly recommend Rev. Faith Lavender! She married us in September and truly made us feel like we had a partner for our very do-it-yourself wedding. She was incredibly professional and very patient with us as we struggled as a couple to see eye to eye on how we wanted the ceremony to go. In the end, she helped us compromise and it turned out beautifully! Faith did a great job putting our 10 year love story into lovely words that touched everyone, even though we had to cut it a bit short after a sudden rain shower disrupted our ceremony! Faith was super professional guiding us all under the tent to continue the ceremony. I was so grateful for her calm demeanor and ability to adjust on the fly during a pretty stressful situation. This was after she had already been so patient during our terential down-pour rehearsal! She was also so patient with our 24-person bridal party. You could say that we put her through quite a lot that weekend, but you wouldn't have been able to tell! I highly recommend Faith!

I was so impressed that you were able to just roll with it, where some brides might have lost it! Once we got settled inside the tent and restarted your ceremony it was an amazing thing that happened! You could feel all the love there for you, almost as if it were all being held inside the tent. it became a magical moment. The vows you and Keiley wrote for one another were some of the most beautiful I have ever heard in my 20 plus years of officiating ceremonies. It truly was a wedding I will never forget! Thank you for taking the time to share with others your experience. I appreciate it! Keep in touch....

Faith made our ceremony extremely unique and special to us as a couple. We worked with her over the course of two years due to having to reschedule our first wedding date due to Covid. She would check in with us regularly over the two year span. We were able to meet with her both in person and on Zoom, which was extremely convenient. She was also very easy to get in touch with via email. She spent time crafting a ceremony to fit us and what we had always hoped for. Being both Catholic and Protestant, Faith worked to find the right balance between religious and spiritual. Our guests said our wedding was the most intimate ceremony they have ever been a part of and this is all thanks to Faith!

Wedding planning may be stressful, but working with Faith was anything but! I can’t write enough positive words to describe our experience. Faith brings a beautiful spirituality to the ceremony without pushing any particular religion or mindset. She puts her heart and soul into crafting a personalized ceremony for each couple. She met with my husband and I multiple times on Zoom and took the time to get to know us so that she could put together a ceremony that represented each of us perfectly. Not only were the words beautiful, she also provided helpful tips on how to stand and speak during the ceremony, which was much appreciated! The energy and experience Faith brings to the table is priceless. I highly recommend working with Faith if you dream of having a unique, meaningful ceremony as a part of your wedding day.

If you are getting married in Cape Cod, you need Faith as your officiant. She is truly incredible. She really took the time to get to know me and my husband throughout the whole wedding process, from meeting in person in 2019 to zooming when the pandemic hit. She officiated our microwedding in May 2020 with just our parents and siblings, and her ceremony was incredibly beautiful. You could tell how much time she spent on crafting our story, and how much she cared about us as a couple. To this day, our parents continue to talk about how amazing the ceremony in 2020 was. We postponed our larger wedding party several times, and Faith was so patient with us, and provided support every step of the way. She continued to keep in touch via email and zoom, so we never felt any distance leading up to our October 2021 party. She even spent additional time updating our ceremony and after our wedding, guests came up to us commenting on how masterful she was in capturing who we are as a couple. She helped us celebrate two momentous days and we are so grateful for the role she has played (and will continue to play) in our lives.

I was so happy for you and thrilled to hear how much your guests enjoyed your ceremony!

My husband and I were married by Reverend Scott. We had a wonderful experience with him, from our initial meeting, through the day of the wedding. Many of our guests told us the ceremony was their favorite part of our wedding- and it was ours too. Rev. Scott wrote a beautiful ceremony for us and was such a calming presence as we stood together. Highly recommend!

Rev. Faith Lavender is one of those people you meet and instantly feel comfortable. She is easy to talk to, professional, and efficient. In the early days of Covid, we decided to make the decision to postpone a year out and she made the rescheduling process easy and stress free for us. When we began planning our ceremony she gave us all the tools and guidance we needed and we had so much fun creating it with her! What we loved the most was how we made it unique to us and our love story. All of our guests raved about our ceremony and how beautiful it was! We loved being able to share our story with our guests, which they really appreciated and it made it feel extra special and intimate. Working with Faith was one of the best experiences we had in our wedding planning process!! Thank you so much Faith!!

I loved working with Rev. Faith Lavender! She is absolutely incredible! So professional and so kind and understanding when we needed to move our wedding in June 2020 due to COVID! The night before my wedding she unfortunately hurt her back and even though I know she was in pain, you couldn't even tell! So many guests talked about how they enjoyed listening to Faith and loved the love story she put together for us! THANK YOU SO MUCH FAITH!!

I'm so glad you and your guests enjoyed the ceremony ! I always strive to make it the highlight of the day! Thank you for taking the time to write me a review. I so appreciate it! Wishing you all the best! Faith

Rev. Faith Lavender was amazing to work with, right from the beginning! Ceremonies are such a huge part of the wedding and something that people don't know very much about, but Rev. Faith was able to help Connor and I with the entire process. Whether that was showing us examples of vows we can use, walking us through step-by-step the ceremony itself a few days prior to our wedding, guiding us with the marriage license, and even providing me with a checklist for how to change my last name! Connor and I are so happy we chose Rev. Faith to be part of our special day.

Faith was absolutely incredible and gave the best ceremony we could have ever asked for on our wedding day. She worked with us throughout the year to get to know us via zoom calls and she captured our love story perfectly. She was so organized, kind, and patient throughout the entire planning process and her delivery on our wedding day was spot on and beyond our expectations. Jon and I, along with ALL of our guests were filled with so much love and happiness. Everyone raved and came up to us afterwards to tell us how special the ceremony was. She is absolutely a 5/5!!!! Thank you again, Faith!!!! You made our day so special!!!

Rev. Faith Lavendar made our ceremony so very special! Workin with Faith from the very beginning was an absolutely pleasure. She was processional, kind, and gave us fantastic tips for the day of to ease our nerves and create a seamless ceremony. It was such a personalized ceremony and we got so many compliments for that.

I had SO much fun meeting you both and sharing in your special day! You two are the kind of couple I LOVE working with! When I left your ceremony I was on such a "love high", I was smiling from ear to ear! Your family and friends were so happy for you and so engaged during the ceremony. I'm so glad to hear you received so many compliments! That's what I love to hear! You two are a very special couple. I hope your wedding day was everything you hoped it would be!
Thank you so much for your generous gift! I was so grateful and also appreciate you taking the time to share your experience in a review!
Best Wishes to you both!

Rev. Faith was absolutely incredible and one of the best decisions we made when it comes to our wedding. My husband and I both come from families who would have preferred a big church wedding but that didn't quite line up with our beliefs. We were able to have honest conversations with Faith about what deterred us from the Church wedding and what we still wanted in our own ceremony. The ceremony was meaningful, personalized and religious in our own way. The next day my devote church-going Dad said it was his favorite part of the wedding and even admitted we had made the right choice!
Any Advice? Pay the extra amount to have a personalized ceremony - we will cherish our video forever.

Rev. Scott (Faith’s husband) officiated our wedding in June of 2021 and was fantastic to work with. In the weeks / months leading up to the wedding, he worked with us to craft a personalized ceremony that helped tell our story. During wedding week, he was a calming influence who made us feel comfortable with the ceremony helping us savor the special moment. After the ceremony, our wedding guests raved about Scott’s soothing delivery and soulful ceremony.

Our wedding day was exactly what we dreamed of and that was largely in part to Faith making our ceremony so special. My husband and I connected with Faith over the phone in order to provide her with some background and talk through what we wanted for the ceremony. Faith was super present on the call, took the time to get to know us and even suggested some ideas for our ceremony that really made it special. Faith was easy, and fun, to work with and we definitely recommend her.

My husband and I had NO idea what we wanted in a ceremony. Faith patiently talked with us and coaxed out what we would like then wrote a ceremony that was completely perfect. It was beyond anything we had hoped for. Many of our friends and family commented on how much they loved it. We cannot recommend Reverend Faith Lavender enough.

Faith -Officiated our wedding at the Wychmere Beach Club on October 20 2019
Faith made the entire process, from our first meeting to discuss our plans to the ceremony itself very enjoyable and stress free. We knew from our first meeting we were in great hands.
Our guests complimented on how lovely and personable our ceremony was. We are blessed to have met Faith!

Where do I start with Faith? She was so lovely to work with and really made sure to take the time to get to know my (now) husband and I before writing our ceremony.
Our first meeting with Faith, she asked us each to fill out a questionnaire which I thought was very unique but a great way to get to know us and our love for one another better. She had asked for our vision, what we wanted in a ceremony, how much or little we wanted to incorporate certain things and truly captured who we are as a couple in our ceremony. A few days after our wedding, we had people reaching out to us telling us it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to and it started out with the perfect ceremony, thanks to Faith! We highly recommend her for any Cape weddings!

My husband and I were married by Rev. Scott Elliot, Rev. Faith’s husband. He was amazing! My husband and I were very nervous and Rev. Elliot made us feel so calm and allowed us to focus on one another. From meeting with him before hand to standing at the alter he thought of every detail and made things go so smooth. We would recommend him to anyone looking to get married!

Faith was exactly the person we needed in our lives and in our ceremony for our wedding. I honestly don't know what we would have done without her. She was the most perfect person for us and we're grateful to have found her. From the very beginning of the planning process Faith was professional, understanding, flexible and accommodating. She was very organized and guided us the entire way through. Faith made sure we were more than prepared for the big day and even offered some tips and tricks in case of wind and my vail (which I used!) We got SO many compliments on our ceremony and I know it wouldn't have been nearly as successful without Faith. If you are looking for a personable, professional, loving, kind, gentle and down to earth woman to officiate the best day of your life, choose Faith.

Faith was amazing! My husband and I didn’t real know what went in to making a ceremony but Faith walked us through the process and collaborated with us to create a beautiful ceremony. We had many family and friends come up to us after the ceremony saying that she was amazing and they thought she has known us for years. It was such a special day and she really played a big role in that!

We were married by Rev. Scott Elliot--the husband of Rev. Faith Lavender on September 7, 2019. From our very first encounter with Rev. Scott, he was warm and attentive. He was invested in getting to know us so he could personalize our wedding ceremony. We completed his wedding questionnaire and shared with him "the story of us". He then took this information and created a meaningful ceremony that reflected who we were as a couple. He added his own elements that we would not have thought of on our own but were touching and made the ceremony even more special. Many of our guests commented on the heartwarming wedding ceremony provided by Rev. Scott. We highly recommend you use him as your wedding officiant.

Faith was literally one of my best decisions during the wedding planning process. Not only was she super accommodating and personable, but she made the entire process less stressful. She incorporated somethings that we wanted to include from the Jewish faith and explained them to our guests so everyone knew what was going on. She even sent us what she was going to say on the wedding day and we got to approve it before meeting with her to go over it. She really got to know and understand us and described our love in ways that I could never make into words. Faith was incredible and we recommend her for everyone.

We are SO happy with our decision to have Faith officiate our wedding ceremony. We have gotten so many compliments from our guests on how much they loved our ceremony and how special it felt. Faith has such a calming demeanor and great delivery. She's extremely experienced and knows how to make the ceremony flow effortlessly. We chose to add-in the piece about our love story and it really added a nice personal touch. Faith does a great job at walking you through the process and letting you know what to expect. She is super professional and responsive and makes you feel like you've known her for years! She was incredible to work with and we are so grateful to have had her as part of our day.

My husband and I got married in Dennis Port 2 weeks ago. Faith was our Reverend and killed it! She played such a crucial part of our wedding day and we are so happy we chose her. Everyone came up to us after our wedding saying how great our ceremony was. I even had people say " I usually zone out during ceremonies but I actually paid attention to yours and was totally captivated and even got emotional."She captured everything we wanted. I wanted a shorter ceremony but still wanted it to be meaningful and intimate. People assumed she knew us for years, to their surprise we had just met her a couple months before and only met in person twice. If you're looking for the best, look no more. Faith is your person!

I wish you both all the best, and be sure to send me a photo!

Rev. Scott Elliot was absolutely fantastic to work with! My husband and I knew from our first encounter with Rev. Scott that he would be the perfect officiant for our wedding. He has a very calm and soothing presence. He really made us feel at ease. He conducted an absolutely beautiful ceremony and my guests were truly impressed by his words. Our wedding was a combination Persian and American ceremony. He really helped us keep everything organized and smooth. Before the wedding, he reached out to our "Persian ceremony" officiant to make sure the 2 ceremonies would transition smoothly/flow well together. He went above and beyond! He walked us through everything before-hand and really got us ready for the big day! I am so thankful we worked with Rev. Scott!! Highly recommend him!
