Rachel was more than we could have hope or asked for. She really took the time to get to know us and our story and asked intentional questions to help her write a beautiful ceremony that was personal to us. We could tell immediately that Rachel was someone who did this because it was a passion of hers and not just to make a little extra money on the side. It was obvious that she cared about us and making our day special. She went above and beyond - she even made us a special certificate to sign during the ceremony (Canadian tradition). By the day of our ceremony we felt like we had known Rachel for years and she exceeded our expectations in every way possible. If we could do it all over again would choose Rachel every time. Thank you for doing your part in making our day the most special day of our lives.
Rachel was the officiant for our wedding & she did a great job! She worked with us to build our ceremony, made great suggestions & handled all the paperwork to file our marriage license. Definitely recommend adding a rehearsal with her. That was a big help for us. She is very reasonably priced & really strives to give her couples the ceremony that works best for them. Can't say enough good things about her!
I would recommend Rachel from From This Day Forward to anyone looking for officiant services! Rachel took the time to meet with my now husband and me to discuss our relationship and what we wanted from our ceremony… she wrote us a beautiful ceremony that exceeded our expectations… and when something came up that made her unable to perform the ceremony, she had a backup officiant, Liz, ready to go! Liz did a beautiful job performing our ceremony! We could not have asked for a better team!
My husband & I really loved working with Rachel. She truly seems to care about making your ceremony special & personal. She also really helped me out when, in the middle of the ceremony, I realized I left my vows in the Bridal Suite (oops!) She kept her cool & tried to distract the guests while the wedding coordinator looked for my vows lol It is a funny story that I will always get to tell & I truly appreciate Rachel for making it into a good story & not a horribly uncomfortable memory. Rachel really did make our day special & we are so lucky that we got to share it with her.
Rachel was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful and listened to everything we wanted/didn’t want in the officiant speech. She mailed off our license and kept us in the loop during the whole process. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant.
We absolutely loved having Rachel as our officiant for our wedding! She built the most lovely ceremony and took the time to get to know my fiancé and I to include personal notes. She was extremely responsive, flexible, and an overall joy to work with. She also made sure to handle all logistics of getting our wedding certificate, which we received with ease! We couldn't recommend her enough!
My husband and I are so thankful to have found Rachel as an officiant for our wedding. We were not interested in reciting our own vows, however also did not want the traditional ceremony. Rachel personally created the perfect combination for our family. She incorporated all the elements of our personalities and the concepts that we expressed were important in our family morals and values. We wanted to incorporate our three children in our ceremony, including a sand ceremony. Rachel flawlessly created a beautiful piece that exceeded our expectations. She is kind, personable, and exudes passion for her work. We had ample communication with her during the planning process. Additionally, she provided information for all the legal aspects of changing my name. She took care of all of the paperwork filing for our marriage license which allowed us to enjoy our honeymoon worry free and one less task on our list when we arrived home. Our entire extended family and friends have made comments to us regarding the unique and momentous ceremony. Rachel will be remembered forever by our family. We give her the highest recommendations and are grateful for her exceptional ceremony.
Rachel was absolutely wonderful and sweet to work with! She wrote the most beautiful vows for our ceremony and made our day the most magical! Thank you so much Rachel! I can’t thank you enough!
Rachel was amazing. Twosday 2/22/22 was a very popular day for a wedding, so we were very grateful when Rachel took us on. Even though it was her fourth wedding for that day we felt we were given special treatment. Rachel is professional through and through; excellent communication, attention to detail, totally reliable but in addition to all this she has a warmth, sincerity and genuine caring which shines through every time we talked with her. We were struggling to find venue and photographer because the wedding was put together at such short notice on a popular day, and she helped us out with suggestions for both. We cannot recommend Rachel highly enough!
Rachel made this process so easy and stress free! Helped in so many ways, communication was the best and made our day so special!!! Such an amazing ceremony and couldn’t have asked for a better day!! I thank God that she was brought into our lives for this wonderful occasion and I would HIGHLY recommend her to perform any special occasion you might need!! Rachel, thank you so much!!! 🌹💜
Rachel was perfect for what we needed. Thank you so much for taking part in our special day! 💜💜
Rachel was amazing and accommodating with every little details we wanted. She took the time to get to know us then write the ceremony. We were able to pick and choose parts of the script that we wanted and build in our own vowes as well.
We had to change the venue, yet Rachel still made sure everything worked out the way we wanted to.
I would highly recommend her as she will help your big day become even better!
We held a very relaxed back yard blended family wedding and Rachel was perfect! She was timely, understanding, and sprinkled in the perfect amounts of humor and seriousness for our ceremony.
Rachel was a wonderful officiant for my wedding. I have no reservations recommending her to anyone looking for an officiant! She took our wants in consideration for the ceremony and wrote two possible scripts. We were able to chose/ modify the script. Along with this, Rachel was very accommodating when we decided to add a sand ceremony and rehearsal dinner last minute. Rachel delivered the script beautifully for the ceremony. She was so sweet, reliable, and easy to work with. I would highly recommend Rachel to any soon to be bride!
Rachel just officiated our wedding this past Saturday and I cannot stress enough just how great she is. We connected from the moment we spoke and created a bond that’ll last a lifetime. She’s so professional, so sweet and caring and so very helpful. I will never not recommend her to any couples looking for an officiant for their big day.
We had asked Rachel to officiate our wedding and she did an absolutely amazing job. From the day we met her we felt she was a great fit. She put our true feelings and love for each other into the most beautiful words.
She’s very caring, thoughtful, kind and personable.
We highly recommend her to anyone who’s getting married. She makes you feel at ease on the big day and takes her time so your able to process your wedding ceremony and vows.
Rachel was an absolute treasure to work with! No one could have been more helpful, kind, or all-around wonderful. Rachel takes the time and effort to get to know you as people, and get a full sense of your story as a couple. She is completely receptive to what you want, and incorporates your personality into the ceremony. She actually wrote two versions of our ceremony for us, and would have changed and reworked either one we chose with any of our feedback (which we didn't even require, because the version of the ceremony we picked was absolutely perfect to begin with).
Rachel is fully engaged with you and the event from start to finish, and beyond; she is always available for general advice (not even necessarily pertaining to the ceremony itself), and after the wedding, she sent me a helpful list of steps to take for changing my last name. She also performed the ceremony so beautifully, and with little dashes of humor that made it all the more right and personal for my goofy husband and me. If you're looking for an officiant who is sweet, fun, professional, communicative, talented, and a pillar of support, do yourself a favor and book Rachel! She made our ceremony absolutely perfect, and was a guiding hand along the way as well. No one could have been better!
