Chanelle is the best! We are so glad we picked her to be our wedding officiant. She not only helped us create a beautiful ceremony script that was very personalized and explained our love story perfectly, but she was also very patient with us t...

hrough the process. My husband is not a man of many words, but was able to open up with her in a way that felt natural. Chanelle texted us often, checked up on us, and when talking to her, she was able to calm our stress down. Planning a wedding is tough work, but she made the process very easy for us. She also offered to translate the ceremony script into Spanish for my few Spanish speaking guests. SHE IS AMAZING!!!

We planned our wedding in Iowa and got married in Okanogan, Washington. Chanelle came highly recommended by friends of ours who also live in Washington, and who were also married by her. My husband looked her up on Facebook and called her. F...

rom that first phone call we both really liked her, she was super friendly, charismatic, and very personable. The months leading up to the wedding she did a great job at keeping in touch and putting all my worries to rest through this pandemic. The week of the wedding we went to Washington, and mett up with Chanelle and her husband Bill. They are seriously the nicest people, we talked for hours like we all have known each other for years. The day of the wedding, we got married in her beautiful backyard with gorgeous scenery in the background. Chanelle wrote vows that were tailor made to match both our personalities to a T. I would't change anything about the ceremony she was absolutely perfect!!!

Chanelle was able a willing to perform our elopement ceremony on about a 6-week notice, and she traveled hours to accommodate our location in Snoqualmie Pass! During the weeks leading up to the event, Chanelle was available anytime we needed to...

confirm something, run an idea by her, or simply say “hi” and check-in. She was open, honest, collaborative, and extremely easy to work with, which allowed her to connect with us in a short amount of time and include important parts of our lives into the ceremony. She provided ideas for thing we hadn’t considered like seating or a rain canopy, and she offered and brought her personal canopy just in case! She arrived early to the event and was extremely patient when we had to push back our start-time to accommodate forgetting our bouquet of flowers and had to pause the ceremony to get our rings, which created great moment that we’ll remember forever. Lastly, she surprised us with a special gift that was so thoughtful and wonderful. Thank you! We are so grateful you took a chance on us!

I am a lover of life and love. I have traveled the world, lived in Ireland for nearly a decade and now live in rural Okanogan County, Washington, USA. Some of my favorite things are Fall, Christmas, orange kitties (Griffey), dachshunds, traveling, hiking, time with my family and enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning while the sun rises or a glass of wine while the sun sets. I also LOVE helping couples celebrate their love in their own, unique style and believe that life and love should be celebrated every minute!
