hiring Colleen as your officiant
We truly enjoyed having Colleen be our officiant for our small covid wedding back in 2020. She was punctual, professional, friendly and warm, and made us feel very comfortable. Whe...
n we walked down the isle, it was an emotional moment, and she did a great job of helping us calm down so we could be present and enjoy the moment even more. When my little 2 year old nephew ran up while we were hammering a box shut with our favorite wine in it, she just said “do you want to come closer? Come on up!” To which I loved as I was able to give him a sweet hug and then he ran back to my bro in law. She was great and I’d highly recommend using her!!
Colleen was a God-Send! She is delightful, professional, Christian, organized, punctual and versatile.
After a brief online meeting we knew what she needed to preform and orchestra...

he was very helpful since the first day I got in touch with her and her guidance was key to having a successful ceremony. A very profesional officiant; I would recommend her 100%. In fact, if I had to repeat this wedding I would choose her again! THANK YOU Colleen!!
Colleen is the best officiant we could have ever had. She made this process so easy. It was our first ever wedding, so naturally we were clueless. We pushed off the process of find...
ing an officiant, and we were worried we wouldn't find a good fit. Then we found Colleen. She is incredible. She calmed our nerves immediately. The planning process was so smooth, and she was even more amazing on the actual day. It ended up raining during our ceremony, and Colleen made the best of the situation. She hit the highlights, and we had a perfect ceremony. I cannot recommend Colleen enough. (She and her husband also provide a premarital counseling program, so please look into that! It is also an easy, beneficial process).
I called Colleen a week before our wedding. I had been worried I wouldn't be able to find someone to officiate due to everything going on with the Coronavirus. Luckily, Colleen sai...
d she was available! Everything was set, when the Shelter in Place was ordered (and due) to be in effect 2 days before our our original date (4/5). I messaged Colleen to see if, by some miracle, she would be able to come the next day (4/2) instead. She was, and even though it was short notice, she had everything together and ready, and preformed a beautiful ceremony! Thanks you, Colleen!
Colleen is very kind, thoughtful and great! She did a wonderful job for our family and we would highly recommend her from counseling to officiating your special day!
Colleen did such a great job as our officiant. From speaking before the ceremony to learn what we wanted, to everything during the rehearsal and ceremony, working with Colleen was ...
one of the best and easiest parts of our wedding. Many people told us that the ceremony was one of the most meaningful and significant they had ever seen, and I think a large part of that is due to Colleen's planning and execution. Highly recommend!
