Carla was truly incredible to work with! From our very first conversation, she was warm, thoughtful, and completely invested in making our ceremony feel personal and meaningful. She took the time to get to know us, guided us through every step with so much care, and crafted a ceremony that felt exactly like “us.” Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how heartfelt and beautifully delivered it was. We’re so grateful for her calming presence, her professionalism, and the joy she brought to our day. We couldn’t have imagined a better officiant!
Every single person we spoke to after the wedding brought up the ceremony first. Carla did an incredible job as our officiant. We were flooded with compliments and love during our cocktail hour and throughout the entire evening. She customized the entire ceremony to include our values and things we love most. It was heart-warming, poetic, funny, and full of personal details about our lives. She took care of the entire timeline of the ceremony and was at our rehearsal to ensure we knew where to be and when. Oh, did we mention she stepped in ONE WEEK BEFORE THE WEDDING? Our original officiant became ill and our wedding planner, Sholeh Munion, found Carla who magically had this one day open in all of September. We cannot be happier with how or ceremony turned out and HIGHLY recommend having Carla as part of your big day.

We knew we wanted a professional officiant for our ceremony, and Carla was the perfect choice. From our first meeting, she impressed us with her thoughtful approach and personalized process. She had us complete a detailed survey and crafted a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony that felt true to us. Carla was communicative, considerate of details like our dress code, and even handled the marriage license for us. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant!
Carla was really incredible throughout the whole process. She was always available for questions, and really made us feel special. Our wedding was only made better by her. She really rolled with the punches when some things didn't go to plan (important people showing up late / some not at all) and made it seem like everything was going along smoothly. Our ceremony was so special that several people have asked for copies of it. It was really unique to us and our relationship. We cannot recommend Carla any higher.
I can't recommend Carla more highly as a wedding officiant. The amount of detail and care she takes with each client is really special and goes such a long way when executing a heartfelt ceremony. So many of our guests commented on how intimate and special, yet lively, our ceremony was - and that was all because of Carla. We are a non-religious couple, which left us with a 'blank slate' of sorts when it came to planning our ceremony. Carla came with great ideas and a structure that perfectly fit our personalities and was just overall the perfect representation of our love. You are in great hands with Carla, no matter your ceremony wants/needs/wishes!
Carla is an incredible officiant who made things very easy for us while beautifully incorporating our story into the ceremony. She was communicative, professional, and more than willing to implement what was important to us.
Carla is incredible! She went above and beyond to get to know us and make our ceremony so personal. We loved every word, quote, and message she wrote. It was such a wonderful ceremony and day, we wouldn’t have changed a thing! You won’t regret working with Carla, she’s the best officiant and such a sweet person!
Carla is amazing! She went above and beyond to make our day so amazing and special! No one else will go the extra mile like she does.
You immediately know when speaking with her that this is her passion, her calling, and it’s not about the money. She truly loves uniting couples and witnessing their love. There is no one better to make it unique and amazing for YOU.
Carla is one of a kind! She’s kind, easy to talk to, dedicated to making your day so special.
If I could give her 10 stars I would!
Carla, thank you, again, from the bottom of our hearts.
Hire Carla!!
Our friends and family keep telling us that our wedding had the best ceremony they had every seen. Carla described our love story perfectly with joy and a warmth that brought laughs and tears. Months before our wedding we researched to find a wedding officiant in Chicago and we came across the Forever Incredibles Ceremony website. After meeting Carla we knew we knew she perfect for our big day. She communicated well through the whole process and had us fill out a questionnaire to learn more. Carla took this information to create the beautiful ceremony. We did not have a rehearsal (only 4 in our wedding party) so Carla made sure we knew what to expect for the ceremony and even went over a few things on the wedding day. Everything went smooth including the readings, vows and unity candle lighting. We can't thank Carla enough for making our wedding day so special!
Working with Carla was a dream! From our initial meeting, it felt like we had known each other forever, like we were family. She is professional, honest, compassionate and really helped to put us at ease during the entire process of putting together the perfect ceremony for our big day (April 21, 2023)! We cannot express enough how happy, blessed and lucky we are to have had Carla by our side and share in the most incredibly special day of our lives. If we had to make the decision for our wedding officiant again, we would choose Carla.
Our wedding ceremony was the most memorable part of our wedding day. Carla crafted a beautiful ceremony for us that felt personal and reflected our values. She wrote a love story based on the surveys we filled out that captured our relationship and made us laugh, helped us pick out readings that spoke to us, and helped articulate the role we wanted our wedding ceremony to play. The process of working with Carla to create a ceremony prompted a lot of reflection on our relationship, and that reflection made our wedding day more meaningful. We'll remember it forever.
Carla customized our ceremony and made it feel personal and unique. She was a great listener, very understanding and she made our big day the most memorable.
Carla from Forever Incredible Ceremonies wrote and gave my wife and I a beautiful thorough wedding ceremony. We are so happy with her celebration of our love & wedding day. She really helped make our wedding such a special day that everyone who attended enjoyed, especially us as the couple getting married. From her survey to learn about us to asking us what was important in our wedding whether we wanted secular, religious, or just other parts of our personality to shine through the ceremony Carla covered it all and helped fill in the gaps in the areas we were unsure/indecisive on. Her long time work in the wedding industry and the connections she made also helped us fine great vendors, since she gave us a list of photographers, videographers, caterers and more that she has worked with and her clients have had good experiences with. She was a complete professional helping us cover all the important bases to get married. We highly recommend Carla (Forever Incredible Ceremonies) to anyone else looking to get married.
We loved working with Carla! She clearly cares about the people she works with and put a lot of effort into getting to know us before our ceremony. Her service was really nice and felt very personal, and I appreciated the opportunity to review it beforehand. I still cried! After the ceremony, she stuck around and talked to our guests, which we really appreciated. Multiple guests told me how much they enjoyed the ceremony. I'm so thankful we found her!
Carla was so present and there for us on our day. She managed to squeeze us in during this crazy wedding season and she delivered! She was slammed but still managed to create a memorable and personal ceremony that had our guests in tears (to include the groom!). I didn't have little extras for our unity ceremony and she was so kind to bring everything for us! Everyone at our party had nothing but positive things to say about her and I was proud to have her marry us. I highly recommend her, she is a lovely person with a tender heart.
Carla was fantastic to work with for our intimate wedding. We had numerous guests compliment the thoughtfulness of our ceremony. If anyone is in need of a wedding officant, Carla is it!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Carla. She took the time to really get to know us and created such a personalized experience for the two of us. She really made our little ceremony intimate and beautiful. I highly recommend!
Carla was amazing. She met with us talked all our desires over with us and also provided a thought provoking questionnaire. She made our ceremony uniquely special. It was truly something I had never heard before and was specific to Ed and I. I would hands down recommend Carla for your ceremony if you desire a truly unique to you experience. It was clear it was a judgement free zone and she was so compatible with our wedding that was anything but traditional. Thank you Carla for making our day 'Forever Incredible'!
