Nichole Bertucci, Officiant, Ordained Minister

we met, what we think of each other and wrote perfect vows around them. She embedded couple of readings in them as well. She was available for rehearsing on the day before. Ours was an inter-cultural wedding and half of the wedding party was clueless about the traditional American wedding. However, she was very patient with all of us and rehearsed us well. On the wedding day, the ceremony went beautifully and set up a high bar for the reception thereafter. She even helped us in applying for marriage license and its signing, right after the ceremony. For all the engaged couples looking for an officiant, we would highly recommend Nichole.

on my wife's side and her family thought she was a family friend from my side. She really made it a truly special day.

say that it was the most thoughtful, funny, and tear jerking ceremony they had seen outside of the movies! Thank you, Nichole!

nd the rehearsal, she was very detailed as to who did what and where they went

her a few hours prior to the ceremony. People assumed she'd been a close, personal friend due to the amount of detail and personalization involved in our ceremony. I cannot sing her praises enough! She is simply the best!

bly heartfelt and personal with all of the emphasis placed on how much love my wife and I have for each other. Every one of our guests commented on how amazing Nichole was and how they wished they had someone that great as their officiant, 5 stars isn't enough to fairly rate her services, highly reccomended!

a one-of-a-kind ceremony incorporating Persian and Jewish traditions was not crazy and instead, very much doable! Throughout the whole process, Nichole got to know me, my fiancé, and the things that were important to us. Her attention to detail was even more evident when I first read a draft of our ceremony. Her words brought me to tears and it was then that I knew the ceremony of our dreams was an imminent reality. On the day of our wedding, Nichole was such a calming and familiar presence. In fact, it was as if she's known us and we've known her our entire lives. She told the story of our love, beautifully. She allowed us to remain in the moment and savor every second. She didn't miss a beat! I cannot be more appreciative to her for flawlessly executing our ceremony from start to finish. Not only are my husband and I so extraordinarily pleased with Nichole, but so were our guests! Our friends and family were so impressed with Nichole and extremely complimentary of her. We've been told that our ceremony was a "real life fairytale," and I couldn't agree more. My husband and I are SO grateful to Nichole and I'm over the moon to have hired her to officiate our wedding ceremony. I would highly recommend Nichole - you cannot go wrong!

nalized and special our ceremony was.

xperience. She made us feel so special in a room of 200 people. Look no further, Nichole handles everything of your behalf and makes you feel so taken care of! 10/10- no, actually 100/10! xoxo

worked well with us and our other vendor. We appreciated her recommendations and thoughtfulness. Highly recommended.

e was able to send us samples and ideas to work from and helped us not only design the perfect ceremony but performed it beautifully!!

! Our ceremony was amazing in every way, and Nichole painted the picture of our love story to our family/friends and delivered it perfectly (almost as if she had known us for years)!! We received multiple compliments from family members afterwards about Nichole, which made us super happy! She made getting married feel easy and stress-free, and she always had a smile on her face! If anyone asks us who we would recommend, we would recommend Nichole in a heart-beat!! You will not be disappointed :)

joyed what she said. Not only was it an extremely beautiful ceremony, but Nichole helped us before the wedding, at the rehearsal, and on the big day to keep things running smoothly and stress-free!

erfect ceremony- finding beautiful readings, incorporating our suggestions and most importantly personalizing the ceremony with elements of our journey and love story. She was always quick to respond whenever we had questions. While she was great to work with during the planning phase, she exceeded all of our expectations during rehearsal and our actual ceremony. She went out of her way to make sure my husband and I felt relaxed the day of our wedding. She also encouraged us to be in the moment during our ceremony, reminding us it was OK to just be engaged with each other and to forget about everyone who was watching. She was organized, an incredible public speaker and above all, an incredibly genuine person. If there is one moment I want to relive the most from our wedding day, it’s the way I felt during our ceremony. There is no one else I would have wanted officiating our wedding. Hire her if you have the opportunity! I promise, you won’t regret it.

t reminder emails every step of the way which helped me remember to get everything done on time like getting our marriage license. Overall she was very friendly and professional and we just loved her.

you will be so grateful.

e everything run smoothly. She kept napkins on her at all times to comfort us when our emotions began to take over and my guests could not stop raving about the ceremony and Nichole's soothing voice that calmed everyone down My sister will be using her for her ceremony and I would absolutely look no further than Nichole when choosing an officiant.

as waiting for us ready to go woth a big smile not only was she happy but she was also excited to celebrate this moment with us. She treated us to a beautiful yet simple ceremony that left us so delighted. She happily guided us with the paper and filed them in a timely caring manner. She was our officiant, our supporter and our friend which we've had the pleasure to work with. Nichole is someone who will do the job without treating it like a job and celebrate along side you on that beautiful day. 11 stars 🌟

ike she had known us for our entire relationship. She was always available to answer questions. She ran our rehearsal smoothly and calmly (despite a fourth of the bridal party missing or late). When it came to actual wedding day, she kept us all calm (despite a high chance of rain) and married us in such a loving, personal way.... our ceremony was the highlight of our day. We received so many compliments about how personal our ceremony was and about Nichole's calm presence. Our perfect wedding day would not have been nearly as perfect had Nichole not been there!!!

f the ceremony. She wrote an absolutely beautiful script that mentioned our long history as high school sweethearts, our late loved ones, and our families. She made sure to accommodate our slightly offbeat requests, like having our parents stand and state their support (instead of my father "giving me away") and including specific sayings, even telling the crowd about our proposal. It was like she had known us for years! We also wrote our own vows and she looked them over and took great care in making sure the tones matched and they fit the mood. We got SO many compliments about our ceremony, even from the more old-fashioned guests. It's been over a week and people continue to tell us how beautifully done it was and how they could feel the love and warmth. We are so thankful for Nichole and we highly recommend her!

hat to Nichole.

ested. We received SO many compliments on our ceremony and she made our day so special. We were told by several people that she made it seem like she knew us for years leading up to the big day. We truly could not have made a better choice when it came to choosing an officiant for our wedding day!

remony. Highly, highly recommend Nicole.

through everything with me and assured me that everything would be ok. The day of, she took charge and made sure everything went smoothly. I cannot say enough good things about her. I highly recommend her! Thank you Nichole!

getting married Nichole had each of us fill out a questionaire about what we wanted for our ceremony and a little bit about each other. With out ever meeting us she drafted the sweetest and most personal ceremony I have ever heard. I was soo impressed I even asked my husband if he had secretly chatted with her on the phone, he hadn't. A month before the wedding we sat down with Nichole and she walked us through the whole ceremony and what to expect and asked if we wanted any changes ( which we didn't, It was perfect). Then came the wedding day... Nichole touched bases with me and my husband before the ceremony and even went above and beyond to ask if we wanted anything. During the ceremony she was well spoken, loving and full of life but took great care to ensure that we were the center of the show. She even stepped aside for our first kiss 😀 so that it was truly a special moment. During the reception we got endless comments about how beautiful and personal the ceremony was. I will continue to recommend her to everyone. Thank you Nichole for literally making our wedding day the most special day of our lives. You will always hold a special place in our hearts.

ts of there ceremony until it was perfect. I'd recommend Nichole to anyone looking for a unique and memorable ceremony.

my wife and I wrote about each other. She was able to accommodate two different cultures into her work as well as a hand fasting ceremony. Afterwards, she handled filing our marriage license and even followed up to make sure we requested the certified copy. Nichole responds to all forms of communication timely and efficiently. We received multiple comments from guests complimenting her work as well. Simply put, we highly recommend!!

your officiant. She's a very efficient officiant ❤️

of our suggestions and wishes for the ceremony, and let us incorporate two special readings. We had so many compliments from friends and family members about our officiant, Nichole, and some people thought she had known us for years. I would recommend Nichole for anyone looking to have a special unique ceremony written specifically for you.

have a complicated family dynamic and she was there with suggestions on the order of people and even seating during the ceremony. On the day of, Nicole was almost like a wedding planner. Anything and everything we needed she was there and helped us out. She helped keep us on time, kept nosey relatives at bay and helped keep both myself and my husband calm. Nicole took care of sending in everything for our license and made sure everything was correct. We did not have to worry about a thing. We could not have asked for a better officiant for our big day. She truly helped make the day and ceremony memorable! I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a wedding officiant.

ractions, and her calm and relaxed nature really helped both of us chill out and remain very present during our marriage ceremony. We're very grateful we found Nichole and were 100% satisfied with her efforts!

ails I wanted, including some specialized readings. She was well-spoken, enthusiastic (but not overly so), and you could tell she not only has the experience you want in an officiant, but she also just loves what she does. I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Nichole. So glad you could be a part of our day!

on of knowledge! We wanted to incorporate religion somehow into the ceremony to please hubbys family and she found a very tasteful and meaningful way to do that. She was very responsive to every message or questions I sent and was on time and smiling the day of the rehearsal and the wedding. We had hubbys godfather do a reading and the day of the rehearsal I realized I never told him which one or printed it for him to rehearse, immediately Nichole pulled out a copy with large print for him to have and we we're all so shocked and I was so appreciative she saved me that stress. Our license was mailed and received very timely and we were provided with a tracking number to watch it. She also sent helpful hints all along the way regarding the license, name changing etc. If I had to do it again (which I hope never happens) I would make sure to get Nichole immediately!

ite having only met her a few minutes prior. I could not recommend her service enough for anyone wanting a short, sweet, accepting (ours was non religious), and truly special wedding.

. Nichole was easy to contact, quick to respond, and met at our convenience in beautiful downtown Holly. She was respectful and thoughtful in meeting our needs (and even let me practice signing my new name a few times beforehand ;) !) However you choose to go about signing your license, I highly recommend Nichole Bertucci! She will make the process simple and pleasant.

y. Throughout the whole process Nichole sent numerous updates and walked us through everything... our vows/ceremony, how to get your marriage license, how to change your name, etc. She is the definition of what every bride is looking for in an officiant! We also booked her for our rehearsal and I'm so glad we did, it put me at ease and everyone knew exactly what to do. Thank you again Nichole!!

to it that we requested. Throughout the time that we worked with her she always responded quickly to emails and was more than happy to help us in any way that she could. On the wedding day she arrived early and immediately met with me to ask if there was anything at all that she could do to help. I was incredibly nervous but her relaxed personality and confidence made everything seem easier. During the ceremony she spoke so beautifully, my husband and I immediately regretted not putting more in her tip envelope! There is honestly nothing she could have done to have given us a better experience. I'm so thankful that our venue suggested her and we will be suggesting her to anyone with future weddings. Thank you Nichole!

flexible with our moonlight night wedding. It was truly a relief to feel like we were completely supported and understood. She made everything very easy and incredibly enjoyable! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

our big day and Nichole being a part of it. Throughout the process, she provided an incredible sense of calm. Both my husband and I felt completely at ease with her. Moreover, we loved her unique and personal approach to writing our ceremony. It was everything we wanted and more. She completely understood what we were asking for. Finally, we had so many compliments from guests on how meaningful the ceremony was. We even had a bride- to-be ask for her contact information. We are SO happy that we found Nichole!

tly reside in Colorado, and she was so easy to work with based here in Michigan where we got married. Nichole wrote the most beautiful ceremony - her first draft was the final draft. On the day of the wedding, she was on time (even early), professional in dress and demeanor, and was a huge help in getting our processional in order when the last intense minutes before walking down the isle happen. We were complimented all evening on how sweet and lovely our ceremony was, all I could do was relay what a wonderful job Nichole did in providing the canvas for our vows and marriage. Her style of officiating respects the traditions of marriage while remaining non-denominational and poetic. Honestly, I could probably go on for an hour of all the great things Nichole brings to your day, but I'll let these few highlights and the rest of the 5 star reviews speak for themselves. I would highly recommend Nichole - she is an outstanding officiant, and sweet sweet wonderful person.

new us on a personal level. She is very flexible and a great speaker. Thank you!

l I came across Nichole with A Simple I Do. I immediately knew she was the one! Nichole makes everything so easy, I liked that we were able to do everything via email and that we had a copy of our ceremony to review well in advance before our wedding day. I loved that she was able to run the rehearsal so smoothly and it put us at ease knowing everything would be perfect for our wedding day. We received so many compliments from our guests, many thought that we knew Nichole personally, and it was so touching to even hear our friends and family say it was the best ceremony they had been to...she definitely painted a picture of our love for one another. Nichole will always have a special place in our hearts and we can’t thank her enough for making our ceremony everything we ever wanted it to be.

s perfect. We have received so many compliments on how sweet our ceremony was. She sends little email reminders on when to get your license and even handles the mailing for you. Taking some work and stress away from the couple. If I had to go back I would pick Nichole a million times!!!

roactive about communication (much appreciated!). She sent out email reminders to submit for a marriage license (life-saver). She was promptly on time for the rehearsal and ceremony. I would definitely recommend having her run the rehearsal- depending on your venue location. She made the process painless and quick. I cannot say enough about her. Even after the ceremony she sent an email with tips for changing your name. No detail went overlooked. Book Nichole for your ceremony!!!

would highly recommend her.

ly recommend!!

at. I found Nichole on the Knot and saw she had great reviews, so I thought, why not? I had no idea that we had fallen into the arms of by far the most talented and caring officiant I have ever met (or witnessed). She takes the time to meet you in person and then will take your love story and turn it into the most heartfelt, unique and personal ceremony. The day I received the draft of our ceremony, I sat down and read it and cried. This was honestly the first time I was emotionally excited about our wedding and it wasn't over material things it was over love and the idea of becoming husband and wife. Throughout the night of our wedding we had just as many people telling us how beautiful and heartfelt the ceremony was as people commenting on food or venue. I assure you that you will not regret hiring Nichole!! Thanks Nichole!

with. She is quick to answer e-mails, and keeps in touch with reminders (believe me - with everything to keep track of during the planning stages - you'll need this!) During the ceremony, I felt like we had a longtime friend marrying us. And when my husband began to tear up, she pulled out a tissue for him without missing a beat! I highly recommend Nichole Bertucci!!

o have no religious references as well as incorporate our own readings and ceremony touches. I have received endless compliments of how beautiful the ceremony was and how wonderful Nicole was! She also made all the paperwork extremely easy to complete and follow through with. Thank you Nicole!

e best ceremony we could possibly have and it showed. She responded very quickly to all of our questions, and was happy to help edit the ceremony until it fit our personalities. We had so many compliments on how meaningful and sweet it was and plenty of comments about what a great job she did with everything. She managed to handle my big hectic family and bridal party beautifully and truly helped make it a day we will never forget. I can't even begin to recommend her enough.

ect ceremony. We also had a friend perform a prayer during the ceremony and she had no problem with this - worked it right in for us. I'd absolutely recommend Nichole's services!

y recommend. Thanks Nichole ;-) from Lisa & Carl

ur big day! Thanks for doing such a fabulous job Nichole! Sincerely, Mr. & Mrs. Kyle McIntyre

emony. We would definetly recommend her a million times over!

t of you.

oke of how great of a job she did. We were very happy and thankful we found her! Thank you Nichole so much for making our day so perfect!-Victoria Bobola

verything I hoped it would be. She was punctual, professional, enthusiastic, and warm. Although we had only had a few discussions via email and phone it had felt like we had known her for years. You can tell that this isn't just a 'job' for Nichole, in every look and word she is passionate and sincere. I cannot think of one negative thing to say, not a single thing. I would highly recommend for any couple, especially anyone who is seeking an officiant who really cares about you and your personal preferences, someone who knows how important the commitment that you're making is and that the day is all about the love shared by the bride and the groom.

e also went over and above to make sure everything went smoothly on our wedding day. We had endless compliments on our ceremony. (Our ceremony was held on July 20, 2013- Ceremony Option: Custom Ceremony) Thank you again for everything Nichole, Jessica and Adam

very sweet and has a great energy about her. I definitely recommend her for any kind of wedding or vow renewal. Thank you so much!!

ly. We even had a rehearsal and I am so happy we did because she made all my pre wedding day nerves go away. The day of the wedding we had nothing but great compliments from out guests on how lovely the ceremony was. It was so heartfelt and she made fit us perfectly. We had written our own vows and Nichole based our whole ceremony around what we wanted and we couldn't have asked for anything better. We will definitely be recommending Nicole to any new couple planning on getting married! Our ceremony was so beautiful and there is nothing I would have changed. married- june 22, 2013

y made us feel at ease. She has 2 ceremony options, a simple prewritten ceremony (what we chose) and a personalized ceremony for a bit more. The ceremony was very simple yet thoughtful and touching and the guests enjoyed it.
