I unexpectedly became an officiant to help a friend with her business. And I fell in love...with brides and grooms.
Although I have worked with brides and grooms for many years as an event planner, I did not know that down the road I would actually be playing such an important and personal role on the day of their marriage.
I love the first time I meet a couple. You are excited, sometimes nervous and maybe you don't know what to ask or expect. No need to worry, I am here for you! I will answer questions you didn't know you had.
I will help guide you and create your dream ceremony!

You want this officiant! Sandra was AMAZING with our wedding and made it truly unique and special with us. 100/10 recommend!!! She has fabulous ideas, her communication was great, and made it such a stress free experience. Just do it and book her, you won’t regret it! We had a week or so to pull it all together with her and she exceeded our expectations. We wouldn’t have had the wedding we did without her.

Sandra was an absolutely wonderful officciant who we'd suggest to anyone! My partner and I were doing a small wedding at the very last minute and were looking for an officiant only a week before. Sandra responded promptly and worked with us to create the wedding ceremony of our dreams! She worked with us over video chat to understand what we wanted and helped walk us through the process. She shared her speeches with us and allowed up to many any changes we wanted, up to the very last minute. She took a lot of time to get to know us and our story and make our wedding ceremony specifically detailed towards us. And it felt like, by the end of the ceremony, that we had made an incredible connection with an incredible human being who helped make our last minute meeting a very special day. She was so flexible, kind, and willing to work with us in our chaos. I'd recommend Sandra to anyone!

She had so many great ideas and took the time to get to know us and to tailor the ceremony to us and our interests.

Sandra was absolutely LOVELY to work with. We decided to have a secret wedding literally in two days, and Sandra pulled it off with ease. She met with us via a zoom call to get to know us and make recommendations. She has a marvelous sense of humor and her ability to read people is spot on! She nailed out personalities and put together the perfect ceremony just for us. (She even had a tissue at the ready for when my waterworks turned on! 😊) Sandra, thank you for being so accommodating and making our dreams come true! Much, much love, Mr. And Mrs. Drummer 😉❤️❤️

We are so grateful to have found Sandra to officiate our wedding. It could not have been better and we received compliments and very positive feedback on the ceremony. Sandra helped us make our union memorable, meaningful, and genuine with minimal stress and fuss. She provided an excellent variety of resources to help us create our ceremony and really listened to us, our story, and helped create a ceremony that represented us as a couple. Sandra was independent, resourceful, demonstrated leadership and coordiation skills, and was a reliable cornerstone of our special day. Could not have asked for better. A million thanks Sandra!

Sandra was absolutely amazing for our wedding! I was originally worried having someone that I didn’t know, would leave our wedding feeling generic. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Sandra met with us several times to get to know us. She made our ceremony so personal, as if we had known her our whole relationship. She provided us with so much guidance, and was great at communicating. I couldn’t have imagined a better person to marry us!

Sandra is AMAZING!! My wife and I literally planned our wedding in one week. Sandra responded to us fast, she really got our ceremony planned out in a VERY short notice. She was thorough and asked us questions to get to know us a bit and how we had met. She sent us options to pick from, beautiful poems and readings. She was just awesome and amazing to work with. Her communication was GREAT and she's Soo nice!! It was a pleasure working with Sandra, I cried almost the whole time and the ceremony was just more than I expected. You can't go wrong working with her she's GREAT!! She also recommended a photographer who ALSO was able to book us in on a very short notice. Sandra made everything so stress FREE.

Sandra is a God send. I did not a lot about what I was doing when planning my wedding before I met Sandra. I read a lot of good reviews and ultimately decided that I wanted to her as my first choice. Sandra gives so much more than only a wedding officiant. She gave me ideas and suggestions for the ceremony that I would have never thought of. I didn't have a photographer a planner, or a lot of money, but Sandra made some recommendations and helped me make our wedding day beautiful and memorable. Thank you so much Sandra! You'll always be my first recommendation for anyone seeking an officiant in the Colorado Springs area.

Sandra was absolutely amazing on our wedding day. We had a destination wedding from Florida to Colorado in July and she met with us a few times on zoom, and put together a beautiful ceremony for us. I felt so bad that she was waiting for us the day of as we were all running late but she very graceful and patient with us. If anyone is looking to get married in Colorado she is your lady.

Sandra could not have been a more understanding and creative person to officiate our wedding! From the first meeting, we knew we had found the person to make our dream ceremony come to life. In the little time, she had to get to know us, she really got it right and created a ceremony that truly reflected our personalities, even our little quirks. Sandra even grounded us during the ceremony to make sure we stayed in the moment with each other. You won’t be disappointed to hire Sandra as your wedding officiant.
