Amber was a spot of sunlight on our cloudy wedding day! We unfortunately left our officiant booking to wayyy to light in the planning process, but Amber came highly recommended by our venue and she managed to squeeze us in! We wanted a short and sweet ceremony that was less traditional. She came back with a powerful and unique script that we felt truly reflected the kind of commitment we were making - a life of love and teamwork between equals taking each other as they are and will become. Amber was endlessly professional but always kind and cheerful. If you're looking for a flexible and positive officiant who will add more to your day than a just boiler-plate speech and a signature on your marriage license, you've found your woman!
Amber gave us a beautiful ceremony and eliminated lots of stress from the day. She was easy to connect with, insisted on our input for readings/rituals, and made it all very personal. Our guests gushed over everything she said and how well the ceremony flowed. She even held my bouquet since it wouldn't stand up on its own!
Amber was so lovely to work with! She is professional and organized and knows just what to do and say to make the ceremony go right. I worked with Amber as an officiant, but I am sure she is also amazing as a day-of coordinator. She is amazing at helping you sort through what you do and don't want said during the ceremony, and provides multiple options of pre-written ceremonies for adjustment and inspiration.
Amber was THE BEST day of coordinator! Kept everything running smoothly, helped a ton with the table decorations, and it was such a treat having all the vendors know each other; they worked efficiently all together. She is such a lovely person. It makes me want to throw another party just to have her around! Love love love Amber.
When I started the search for an officiant, I had a couple wants in mind - #1, someone with a great voice; and #2, preferably a woman with a fun and friendly vibe. My husband and I wanted a ceremony that was different and unique, yet short and sweet so all guests could head to the reception for drinks and merriment. Amber really helped to make that happen!! We chose the "Uniquely You" package in which we worked with Amber to create a ceremony all our own, with her expert guidance, samples, and suggestions. We sent her a rough draft of excerpts we liked from previous ceremonies she shared with us, along with personal vows and touches we wanted to incorporate. Amber transformed these bits and pieces into a cohesive and fun ceremony. At the rehearsal, she arrived promptly and even stayed much longer than requested when the mother of the groom and one groomsman arrived quite late. During our wedding ceremony, she read some silly and sassy personal vows my groom and I wrote for each other, all the while expertly posing at the alter so that our wedding photos looked amazing and the focus remained on the groom and me. Amber made our ceremony entertaining, full of laughter, love, and happy tears. She was very reliable, had great communication with us, and brought so many creative ideas to the table. Many of our guests said that our ceremony was the best ceremony they have ever been to! Thank you Amber!
Amber was so nice & helpful & totally on the ball. She made it a point to incorporate our every wish into our ceremony. She is fun to be around & I enjoyed just hanging out with her during her our consultations. Price wise, she is very reasonable & she has a lot of good ideas to help you get the kind of ceremony you are hoping to have. Each time I met her, I was more more glad than the last that we chose her to perform our ceremony.
Amber is a bride's dream come true. She knew what I wanted in a ceremony after one quick meeting. She made the process of creating a ceremony easy and painless. She was accommodating when I realized (the day of the wedding) that I forgot to tell her our ceremony time was changed. She handled our scary venue wedding coordinator with grace and humor. I received many comments from my guests on how great she was! I can't say enough wonderful things about Amber. I couldn't imagine our wedding without her.
Amber was an amazing minister to work with. She worked with us well and was able to create a ceremony that described myself and my new husband. She had a large selection of wedding ceremonies, pomes, and vows that we could select to create a unique ceremony. Amber was more than willing to piece things together, and make suggestions. Amber’s energy was a great addition to our wedding day! I would highly recommend Amber as a wedding ceremony minister!
