CoCreative Journeys, Paul Paiva

riends comment on how beautiful and unique our wedding ceremony was. Paul is the best!

lie and Leif which was critical. Paul worked very hard prior to, during, and after the ceremony ensuring everything went just right! Best wedding ever so thanks again Paul!

on to detail in the planning process: I thought I would have to bring my laptop and give him notes but he took care of EVERYTHING. My mom and sisters and some of their husbands commented on how the ceremony was so incredibly unique - he is not only a great officiant with a great artistic sense but really he knew how to work the crowd and entertain us. My guests were laughing and crying and laughing again. I was a bit of a "perfectionistic" bride and everything exceeded my expectations. 30 minutes before the wedding was to start Paul peeked his head head in to check in with the bridesmaids and I, which reassured me that he knew everything was going to go smoothly - just the way we planned it! Paul stayed through the reception, which was such a wonderful touch - he fit in so wonderfully with our friends and family that many of them were surprised to learn that we had only met a few months before. Thanks Paul and keep in touch! Anna

ut the entire ceremony, and you gave us good ideas and directions on things we weren't too sure about. And we still get comments to this day on how beautiful the ceremony was. Actually rekindled some broken relationships with the words that were said! They said they could just feel the love and the happiness throughout the entire wedding. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day and we were so glad that you could be such a special part of that! You have an amazing personality and wonderful ideas/resources. We enjoyed getting the chance to meet you and wish you the best! Ryan and Miranda

I like? I liked to hear that you spent time with them before the wedding, asking them questions and having them tell you about themselves and what they liked about each other and challenged them to think about the very important step they were about to take. Couple counseling. 2. While meeting with them you assisted them in planning their wedding not only the way they wanted it but you took into consideration the families and friends so the ceremony would be inspiring and meaningful for all who attended. 3. I liked that you listened to them and incorporated what you learned from them into your remarks. Your remarks were well planned, informative, funny and you spoke just the right amount of time. Not too short, not too long. You were also open to the change in your plan, incorporating the “family scarf presentation” into the ceremony. 4. Your organization of the entire ceremony very much impressed me (us). I also appreciated that you kept us on time, coming to the bus to get us started and to finish preparations with the wedding party. Your communication and organizational skills were greatly appreciated. 5. I also know Beth and Rob appreciated the meal they shared with you. An excellent way to make them feel comfortable with you and you with them. They were fortunate to find you. 6. I really do not know what could have been changed or left out. Everything was perfect in our eyes. As I wrote to you last year, if anyone wants to follow up on your references, send them to me. 7. Thank you also for taking the time to share dinner with all of us at the reception. Time is precious and we were honored that you stayed. Thank you for your email. By taking the time to consider your request I was able to review and relive the beautiful wedding day for Beth and Rob. Thank you for being a part of that day. Sincerely, Phyllis (and Jim) (mother of bride)
