Kathy Vass, Wedding Minister: Ever After Memories LLC

ceremony that captivated our guests and kept them engaged throughout each section, from readings, to cultural rituals, to our personally written vows. We were able to bounce ideas with her throughout our entire wedding planning period and adjust the ceremony until it was just right. Our guests have continued to compliment our ceremony as one of the most remarkable they have ever attended. We both grew up with religious backgrounds and wanted the ceremony to still seem special, and well thought-out, but at the same time that it was 'us' and reflected our personalities. Kathy knocked it out of the park and we can't thank her enough for being a part of our day.

emony. She helped us to incorporate important aspects and people into our ceremony that made it much more special! Planning a wedding is already a stressful process but with having Kathy as our officiant it made the process go smoothly. Thank you so much Kathy!

nd meetings in order to tell our unique love story. Our guests loved each element of the ceremony, from the love story, to the vows, to the unity ceremony. The ceremony ran smoothly, and we couldn’t have asked for more. I never felt concerned throughout the planning process with Kathy in charge of the ceremony. She is the best!

her personal details and then crafted a story that was just beautiful. I cannot recommend her enough!

out her work and invested in making your wedding ceremony personalized to reflect the couple on their big day. Kathy made us feel that we were in charge and she was there to reflect our love story and she made it magical. Our ceremony was everything we wanted and was the exact representation of us. Please book Kathy, she will connect with you and make sure your love story is shared the way you want!

ic and special — nothing about what she does is “cookie cutter.” Our guests were blown away by how personal our ceremony was, to the point that they thought Kathy was a friend of ours. You will not regret trusting Kathy with your special day!

in our lives, which makes standing with her on the wedding day that much more special (I just couldn’t stop tearing up during both ceremonies). We sat with her for hours to talk through our ceremonies and love story, and she sent us an amazing video of our love story to us on our 1st anniversary that was so cute! After our ceremony, so many of our guests were gushing about how amazing she was during the ceremony! Kathy is so organized with her planning of the ceremony (who’s walking when, who’s standing where, who’s sitting where, who says what, when does music play, etc) and that helps so much! Additionally, she had so many fun ideas and options for different things to add into the ceremony, this year we did a vow renewal for all of our guests and they absolutely loved it! I will definitely miss getting to chat with Kathy now that everything is over! ❤️

iends catching up. She wrote the most beautiful ceremony we could have imagined. Every detail was so perfectly crafted to match our personalities and who we are as a couple. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. Family and friends expressed that it was the most special ceremony they have ever seen. Our parents were especially impressed and can't stop raving about her professionalism and warm delivery. We chose to write our own vows and purchased her hand-made vow books, which we highly recommend. Thank you, Kathy, for the most special day that we'll always remember.

and fun! Guests who have been to 20 plus weddings said that this was the most memorable ceremony they had ever attended. She even went out of her way to research Bulgarian traditions we wanted to incorporate. Kathy was a memorable and amazing part of our special day.

new she was “the one.” Not only could we immediately tell that she was passionate about what she does, but she felt like an old friend right off the bat. Kathy wrote us the most amazing ceremony that fit us and our personalities perfectly. Given that we are both not religious or extremely serious, the ceremony she wrote for us was sweet, simple, funny, and overall amazing. Our guests all raved about her and felt like she was a familiar friend they already knew. Leading up to our day, Kathy met with us in advance and conducted an interview of sorts to get to know us better. She recorded the video of the interview and will send it to us on our first wedding anniversary so that we can look back on it for years to come. After our interview, my husband commented that he wish he could talk to Kathy more often! This interview lead her to write such a personalized ceremony. Not only did she write our ceremony, but she contacted our vendors in advance, was prompt with all communication, and went above and beyond to make sure my grandmother was included in our ceremony by setting up a personal Zoom link for her. Words cannot express how grateful we are to Kathy!

came to our house to learn more about our love story- it was a natural conversation that she videotaped- we can't wait to see it on our one year anniversary! On the day of the wedding, Kathy did an amazing job. Multiple members of our families asked if we knew her personally. I would recommend Kathy to anyone!

ny - we cried when we first read it!! We received so many compliments on the ceremony that Kathy wrote for us. It was so personalized and so well done. Everyone including my husband and I were so impressed :) she is so kind and helpful and professional. We can’t thank her enough! I HIGHLY recommend selecting Kathy as your officiant!

lationship and that showed in the ceremony she wrote. She took our opinions into account, and added some wonderful surprises for our parents. Kathy is also a wonderful person. She is easy to get along with and makes people feel comfortable (including my husband, who doesn't like to talk very much). We are looking forward to seeing part of our interview with her in 11 months, on our first anniversary! We would definitely recommend Kathy Vass as an officiant!

mportant to us though, was that the ceremony was personalized to us as a couple. Kathy did just that and more. We met her in our home (her suggestion so that we were most comfortable, an hour away from her own home, on a weekend) where she set up cameras to interview us about our relationship journey. Though honestly, I quickly forgot about the cameras, and it just felt like a natural conversation with her, and it went on for hours! It was fun to reminisce about things we had almost forgotten about over the years, and especially in the thick of wedding planning. I found myself loving my fiance more during those hours while hearing what he had to say. By the end, Kathy truly felt like a friend, and an advocate for our marriage. After she officiated our ceremony, we had several people come up to us to ask how we were related to or knew Kathy... it was that personalized. Even two months later, so many of our family and friends have told us how beautiful the ceremony was, and that is all thanks to Kathy and her dedication to getting to know each and every couple that she marries. Our ceremony was my favorite part of our wedding day (and I really thought the reception would win). Not many people can say that they love their career and that it is a perfect match for them, but Kathy was made for this. Her passion for helping to perfect a couple's biggest day of their lives is evident, and more importantly - it is truly genuine. We would recommend her to anyone. And we can't wait to see our video on our 1 year anniversary!

were bummed but knew we couldn’t let this put a dent in our plans. We met Kathy at a wedding expo and were first intrigued by the time capsule video she offered. We had a video meeting to have an official “meet” and it felt like we knew her forever. She reassured us that the ceremony was about US and our union which really put my husband and I at ease. We scheduled our ceremony detail meeting to record our video and I think we exceeded our timeframe but within good reason lol Kathy spoke to us like a friend, not someone who was in the business to just marry people. She helped us open up a dialogue that I think we hadn’t tapped into in a while ~wedding planning is hectic and at times blurs the purpose of the day and what it really means~ She helped us remind each other why we are getting married and we needed that. In return, our meeting helped create one of the most beautiful ceremonies ever. We received so many compliments on how personal and emotionally beautiful it was and it felt like everyone there was in tune with our union. We highly recommend Kathy to everyone looking for an officiant bc I guarantee you will walk away with an abundance of love and more excitement about your special day after sitting with her :)

Kathy. She is very easy to talk to and be open with. We were very comfortable sharing our story with her from the moment we met. In fact, we stayed with her for over 4 hours chatting and getting to know each other. Kathy is unique among officiates as she will record the sharing of your relationship story so she can put together a video for your 1 year anniversary! What a cool idea! Kathy is clearly in it for the celebration of love and partnership that a wedding should be. She was happy to make the wedding feel it was ‘ours’ and not completely based in traditions; she suggested some less common traditions/ wordings that highlighted the special moment but matched our personalities and relationship as well. We are so happy to know that our wedding was a reflection of us. It makes us both so happy to look back on that day, surrounded by our closest friends and family, and know that we were shepherded into our married life by such a wonderful and kind person. We recommend Kathy to all our friends and anyone who wants to have a wedding focused on a celebration of their love.

personal, beautiful ceremony. Our guests commented on how genuine our vows were and that is was BEAUTIFUL day! My husband and I recommend Kathy. She will make your wedding day very special.

orking with us, getting to know us and customizing our ceremony. We received so many compliments on our ceremony, and it was all thanks to Kathy!
