Heather was great!! She was professional and definitely a great addition to our wedding! I highly recommend her for yours!
Heather was such a pleasure to work with. During our initial meeting, Heather asked us a few questions to get to know us as a couple. We felt so comfortable with her that we ended ...
up signing a contract that day. She sent us a document of options for the ceremony which made planning our ceremony a breeze. She attended our rehearsal to run through the details with our wedding party which was extremely helpful. On our wedding day, our ceremony was everything we hoped it to be and more! We received many compliments on how beautiful our ceremony was by our guests. We would highly recommend Heather!
My husband and I met or spoke with seven different officiants before we met Heather. We had a difficult task of trying to please our parents, who wanted a religious ceremony, when ...
we did not. Heather was flexible, helpful and informative. I felt very strongly that I wanted to write the ceremony, and Heather gave me the tools and resources to do just that. Then she met with us to go over what we had come up with and provided constructive and helpful tips for improving it even further. It ended up being exactly what I wanted and met our parents' wishes.
On the day of the wedding, Heather showed up on time and was extremely helpful. She took charge and made sure everything ran smoothly -- including pinning all the groomsmen's boutonnieres when they had no idea what they were doing. During the ceremony, Heather's mic briefly went out, and she didn't miss a beat. She spoke louder and clear until it was resolved. Most people didn't even notice. We've been to weddings were the officiants have forgotten to tell the guest to sit, or did something out of order or forgot a part -- Heather was a pro.
We did have one issue with our marriage license. She put the wrong name of the city and it was sent back to us (something she says she has always done and it has never been a problem) but she apologized and quickly helped us fix it.
For what began as an extremely stressful process, Heather made it simple and did a great job.
Back at the beginning of April I reached out to Heather. I looked at reviews on The Knot and I checked out her website. She was very nice to deal with in email, until today. Bac...
k in April I ask if she was free on my wedding day and she was. I let her know I was looking for a very simple Ceremony. Let her know the location. I ask for a price quote and she gave it to me. We sent up a meeting for May 31st to meet. Today (May 27th) I receive an email from her that she signed a contract with someone else on my date. When I agreed to meet her, not once did she state that if someone signed a contract before we met that I would basically be out of luck. I am 2 1/2 months from my wedding day. I think that is very poor customer service.
Before the wedding, Heather provided us with a lengthy document filled with more common ceremony options. We removed things we didn’t want, and added a few things we found online ...
that we liked.
On the wedding day, Heather helped guests find the location of the ceremony at the venue. She also kept us on schedule without being pushy. She stopped in as I (the bride) was getting ready, and helped me feel more confident about standing up in front of 100 people.
If Heather had not been there, I think it would have been total chaos.
Heather did a great job at my wedding and was very responsive to question before and after the ceremony.
Heather was amazing!!! She came highly recommended from our wedding planner Elle from Elle Ellinghaus Designs. Our wedding party consisted of myself (bride), groom and our 4 year o...
ld daughter, so we decided we didn't need to have a rehearsal. We wanted a very personal and intimate ceremony between the 3 of us. Elle was able to communicate exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. Heather gave us a great a starting point to plan our ceremony and was completely open to our ideas. We met Heather on the day of the ceremony and she made us feel completely comfortable. We just love the way she guided us in our ceremony. Everything turned out perfectly even without any rehearsal. We received so many compliments on how romantic and beautiful the ceremony was. We couldn't have done it without her!
We are honored to have had Heather Saul officiate our wedding and be the first to introduce us as husband and wife!
Heather is absolutely wonderful. She makes writing your ceremony a breeze. She has pre-made templates for each part of the ceremony and you just pick and choose what to include (or...
write your own)...the wording of our ceremony was just beautiful. She was very accommodating too. She worked with me on payments and met me before the wedding day to go over our ceremony since I couldn't afford for her to be there for the rehearsal.
We called Heather just 2 days before our wedding after our scheduled officiant cancelled. Not only did she save the day by offering to officiate on such short notice, but she put u...
s completely at ease and conducted the most beautiful, personal ceremony for us! She was easy to work with and graciously incorporated all the rituals we hoped to include. Her presence was one of the highlights of our special day and our family continues to compliment our choice in officiant.
Heather officiated at our December wedding and we could not be happier with her performance! She was with us every step of the way to provide advice and guidance to make our cerem...
ony perfect. She was patient and professional at the rehearsal dealing with our rowdy bunch and the ceremony went off without a hitch. She is wonderful and I would highly recommend her services to anyone!
Heather was so great and easy to work with. She helped me decide how to have the ceremony flow with the wording since I had no idea what to do. She gave me a lot of options to ch...
oose from that also inspired me to do some personal touches. I had a same sex wedding and she was completely supportive, treating us no differently than she would a heterosexual couple. When we were announced as married to our guests, she told us that she thought what we were doing was so brave and she was very happy for us, which was very touching. I would 100% recommend Heather to be the officiant at your wedding!
She was easy to communicate with. However, she has serious control issues and what she wore to my wedding was inappropriate. She had on a cream and nude colored sweater dress, that...
came above her knees and she had on knee high tan suede boots. She was slightly disrespectful during the rehearsal and shushed my groomsmen like they children and said it was "her time". Yea... Never again.
We went through a few wedding officiants before we finally settled on one...come to find out a few weeks later that the one we had decided on was pregnant and her due date was arou...
nd our wedding date. We had to find a new officiant in a relatively tight time frame (a few months, which in wedding time is critical). Many people were booked already, but luckily Heather wasn't! She's awesome. Heather is super nice, very genuine, and has such a sweet nature about her. She really put us at ease with her calm approach to everything. Heather is a pro and knows her stuff too! A few minutes before the ceremony, she re-adjusted our groomsmen's boutonnieres (since they had no idea how to put them on) and had them looking spiffy just in time for the ceremony. Overall, Heather is a wonderful addition to your wedding day -- you'll be blessed to have her marry you!!
Heather made our wedding ceremony very organized, beautiful and simple. She is very professional and offered a lot of help before, during and after our wedding day.
Heather did a good job officiating and was very kind to us. The only issue was that she was a little late which made us get nervous and the ceremony was a lot shorter than she pred...
icted (she said 20 mins. but it turned out to be only 10!) I would recommend her because she was easy to work with :)
Heather did a great job officiating our ceremony. With her help we were able to make it exactly what we wanted down to every word. Her guidance and advice really helped a lot.

sonaliz a ceremony, and made it very easy on us. She also took time to meet with us ahead of time to walk through our options and get to know each other. The ceremony was so romantic and personal, she seems truly happy for the couple and created a positive environment for our wedding. Thanks Heather!
Heather was fantastic from the start! She was so kind and patient with us. We wanted a ceremony that was unique and personal and that was exactly what we had. Heather helped us cre...

Heather made the biggest part of our day the least stressful. We were able to pick and choose from a large selection of ceremony options provided by Heather and she was more than ...
willing to make changes where we wanted them. She was willing to help me with a little surprise for my future husband and helped pull it off flawlessly. Her professionalism was top notch and her ability to keep everything simple and straight forward was greatly appreciated.
Heather Saul was an amazing wedding officient! We met her after our 1st officient double booked us by mistake and referred us to Heather. Well everything happens for a reason becau...
se Heather was a god send! She was organized, on point, and delivered our ceremony better then we could have expected. She helped us make our ceremony our own and really cared about making it a special ceremony for us. She was so friendly and caring from start to finish. She checked in with us periodically after our wedding to make sure we were having a happy marriage. We couldnt have been happier with her. I would refer her to anyone who asked. After our ceremony many people came up to us to tell us how beautiful and original our ceremony was and how heather was a great speaker. We were truly happy! I would reccomend her to anyone who is getting married!

world we were doing! We knew we could trust her immediately. She was very professional and flexible with our needs planning a wedding out of state. Heather was able to suggest other ceremony rituals we had never heard of before and made it perfect for us.
After a disaster with my original officiant, Heather was available and really came to the rescue. She performed our ceremony and was a delight to have present.

My husband and I didn't want anything too long or fancy for our ceremony and Heather worked well with us in our time frame and our choice of ceremony options. She's very thorough ...
and attentive, and we were very happy with her service. Her pricing was out of our price range (as are most of the other officiants in the area), but her quality of service was what we needed. I recommend Heather for any wedding or vow renewal ceremony.
I just can not say enough great things about Heather. She was a pleasure to work with and I received so many wonderful compliments after the ceremony. Heather was very sweet, had...
a calming demeaner, and was very well spoken. She was organized and made sure I did not worry about a thing. The ceremony selections/readings were exactly what I was looking for and I couldn't have asked for a better person to officiate on my magical day.
We were so happy that we chose Heather Saul to marry us. She's extremely professional, yet flexible and laid back. She doesn't add any additional stress to your wedding day. My hus...
band and I vary religiously, and Heather was able to accommodate both of our wishes for the ceremony. She is bright and upbeat, and we would recommend her for any ceremony!

r day so special. You only get this one day to get married and it's a day you never want to forget and we are so lucky to of had Heather bring us together!!! Thank you Heather for all the memories we will never forget!!!
We found Heather after having to move our wedding up 3 months and our other officiant was no longer available. She was receptive to the ceremony we had already written and also of...
fered many suggestions, which I found helpful and actually liked some of her readings better than the ones we had already picked. Since we did not have a lot of time to plan we communicated through email and Heather never took longer than 24 hours to respond. It was very reassuring. On our wedding day she was on time, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Everything was perfect and she gave us her copy of the ceremony to keep, which is a nice keepsake.
I highly recommend Heather. She will be as much or as little involved in writing the ceremony as you like. She is very helpful and makes at least one part of the planning process stress free.
Heather did a beautiful job in not only officating my wedding ceremony, but offering a helping hand with the planning along the way. She offered great advice, reliable vendors, an...
d true compassion for our special day. She will help to make any wedding day extra special! We are so happy and lucky to have found her!
Heather was exactly what we wanted in an officiant for our non-religious wedding ceremony. She was extremely warm from the first time my husband and I met her, and made us both fee...
l very comfortable with her. She was extremely willing to answer any and all questions that we had, not only those that were specific to our own ceremony, but also about marriage in general. She arrived on time and processed all paper work effectively on our wedding day. One minor problem though - when recording the time of our 11am ceremony on our marriage license, she circled "PM" instead of "AM". I have not had to use the marriage license for any official purposes yet, so hopefully this minor error will not cause any problems for us. Other than that, she provided an abundance of ideas for readings/poems that could be incorporated into the wedding ceremony, but also gave us the flexibility to add readings of our own that we wanted to include. It would have been nice if she asked us more about ourselves when we met with her (e.g., how long we've been together, how we met, etc.) so that she could incorporate personalized elements into the ceremony; however, I'm sure that she could have done something like this if we specifically requested it. Basically, she did everything that she promised to do and we got exactly what we were expecting from her services. I would definitely recommend Heather Saul for any couple who is hoping to have a non-traditional/non-religious wedding ceremony.
I communicated with Ms.Heather Saul via email. She answered my questions very fast and she is very helpful. The ceremony was very touching. Thank you, Heather Saul, for being a par...
t of our wonderful day.
Thank GOD for this wonderful , kind & professional person !
We were SO LUCKY to have found her - we had many special requests for an alternative / non-traditional type of c...
eremony ( 2 of them, actually ) & her input was irreplaceable.
She NEVER failed to respond to any of my MANY emails & MANY questions ( almost immediately ) those emails from her REALLY kept me on track !
We had quite a few " personal hurdles " as we were planning our ceremonies ~ so she was a true beacon of light & hope for us both ; our (2) ceremonies were ABSOLUTELY PERFECT.
She was / is professional , polite, kind, helpful , expressed positive, loving energy while conducting our ceremonies & was everything that we needed her to be in order to have exactly what we had envisioned ~ for our ceremonies .
Any couple who books her is LUCKY!
We had only spoken to Heather through email up to the day of the ceremony, and met her 30 minutes before the ceremony, but we were absolutely blown away by how well everything tur...
ned out. We knew we were taking a real chance but after the second we met her, it was a huge sign of relief. She listened to everything we wanted - our vows were perfect. She knew exactly what to do, she was on time, she was so friendly and very easy to work with. We both felt so relaxed working with Heather. We got even more than what we expected and we wouldn't trade her for another wedding officiant. I would definitely recommend her to anyone getting married.
Heather was wonderful! She worked with us to create a ceremony that truly reflected our beliefs and values and that was much appreciated. Then, the ceremony we wrote was flawlessly...
delivered and beautifully spoken. I highly recommend Heather!
