Once Upon A Vow

Karla, what an amazing job you performed for myself and my now husband Garry. You made the whole experience fun and emotional, your words spoke to our hearts and minds in a way we never expected. Thank you taking the time to ask the questions you did, with surprising consequences, because we couldn’t have had our day without you. What a magical and heart felt ceremony you performed and it will remain with us for the rest of our lives. Your words of, it doesn’t matter how young or old one may be - when you find a love - keep it. And to have you in the photos as well as the kids, will be forever cherished. Thank you - and trainers win the day in our hearts. 🤣😂❤️❤️

We were so honored to be married by Daniela with Once Upon A Vow! She guided us through the whole process, taking our jumbled word salad and crafting a beautiful narrative of our love story that felt so right and personal. Her questions were thought provoking, deep, silly, and really brought forward the aspects of our relationship we wanted to highlight. She is a masterful storyteller and shining light of a human, exuding warmth and care for her clients and hopping right on board with any idea to run with it. We couldn't be more grateful and recommend this team any more highly!

We cannot thank Daniella from Take a Vow enough for making our ceremony so perfect. Although we were at opposite sides of the world before meeting for the first time on our big day, she knew from the first video call who we were and what we were about which resulted in her writing the most perfect ceremony for us. Thank you it would not have been what it was without your support and attention to detail. Laura-Anne and Chris Morrison x

There will never be enough words to describe how grateful we are to have had Dani be apart of our wedding day. Our family and friends have not stopped talking about how perfect the ceremony was which was all down to her. We only had 1 zoom call beforehand and it really felt like we had known her forever. Highly recommend if you are looking for someone to create a bespoke, personal and memorable ceremony.

We cannot stress enough how amazing Dani is! The compliment we’ve heard the most since our wedding is how much our family and friends loved the ceremony and our officiant in particular. From the beginning, Dani invested a lot of time getting to know us and hearing our story through three very fun sessions. This resulted in a very personalized ceremony, with lots of fun anecdotes included. The ceremony was so tailored to us, many of our guests thought that Dani was a close friend. She even did portions in Spanish, for our non-English speaking relatives. Dani was also a very helpful and calming presence, walking us and our wedding party through the entire process before guests arrived. We truly could not be happier with Once Upon a Vow. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an officiant to throw away the typical template and perform a ceremony that you’ll always remember!

Words really cannot describe how fantastic our experience was with Once Upon A Vow. Karla took the time to really get to know my husband and I and our story. As our officiant she created a beautiful speech for our ceremony. Everything far exceeded our expectations and we could not have been happier.

No words can capture how incredible the experience of working with Daniela was. Daniela far exceeded our expectations and did so much more for us than just being our officiant. Everything that Daniela did was thoughtful, intentional, and professional. From the very beginning, Daniela went out of her way to get to know who we are as individuals, and also to understand our story. From filling out a love questionnaire, to diving deep into our story over multiple video calls, Daniela was able to tell our story better than we ourselves could have once the wedding day finally arrived. On our wedding day, Daniela put together a story and a ceremony that felt personal, loving, funny, relatable, heartfelt, and entertaining. We had so many people ask us where we found Daniela and tell us how they had never witnessed a ceremony as beautifully done as ours, all thanks to her! One side of our family is Dominican, and Daniela was able to gracefully bring Spanish into our love story without directly repeating every line word for word. This made it accessible to Spanish Speaking only guests, and not repetitive for others. More than one person came up afterwards with tears in their eyes expressing how appreciative they were to have been able to take part in the Ceremony because it was also in Spanish. Daniela went above and beyond more than once. Daniela coordinated our rehearsal onsite the day before the wedding. We had more than 20 people in the party, including children and parents, and she did such an amazing job at making people feel comfortable and prepared for the ceremony. We both agree that the ceremony was our favorite part of our wedding. The vibe, the emotions, the story telling... All of this came together to create the most special moment of our lives. We highly recommended Once Upon a Vow and Daniela as an officiant for anyone who is looking! You will be in great hands! -Erica & Neal

My husband and I are so grateful and lucky to have come across Once Upon A Vow. Dani was amazing and exceeded our expectations in every way. Dani made our ceremony enjoyable, thoughtful, and perfect! Thank you again. I highly recommend Once Upon a Vow to everyone!!!

Danni was amazing. She has such a genuine nature that made our ceremony that much more special. She met us super early with a big smile that instantly put us at ease. She spoke with care and passion, telling our love story in such a beautiful way. Danni even stayed later than booked, taking some pics and helping with our bags. Overall 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Danni

My husband and I can't put into words how grateful we are for Dani’s kind, thoughtful, heartfelt and sweet words which captured us perfectly as a couple and made us feel very at ease for our special moment. In the months leading up to our elopement she kept us informed with many wonderful emails and also walked us through the marriage license process! We felt like we had known Dani for years as she was so personable and kind, yet extremely professional. If you are eloping and need an officiant, please choose Once Upon A Vow! Best experience, best officiating, for the best day ever.

Dany became our family when we found ourselves alone on our elopement day. She is a master at what she does! She was a counselor making sure we were mentally ready to wed, a wedding planner putting all the pieces together, an author creating vows that fit us perfectly… she’s EVERYTHING you need!

Daniela’s energy and personalized touches made our ceremony extra special, fun and all around awesome. She helped make our day even better than we hoped. Highly recommend!

Daniela at once upon a vow. Dani has been amazing along the way and wrote a truly wonderful service for us which was just perfect in every way. I really couldn’t recommend her any more as she really brought tears to both of us in her words of our Story

Dani was our officiant for our wedding this past October and words can’t even describe how amazing she did. All our guests were absolutely raving about how emotional and beautiful our ceremony was, and we absolutely agree! There were parts of our ceremony that as she was reading them, felt like they were synced up perfectly with our private vows, which was so serendipitous. Leading up to our wedding day, she had done zoom consults with us to get to know who we are as a couple and what’s really important to us. She truly got us in a way we never expected, and in a way we even got to know each other more as a couple throughout those calls! Something also really special to us was that she did parts of our ceremony in Spanish. This meant a lot because my husband’s parents only speak Spanish, so they were able to follow along as well, while also allowing us to add a nod of appreciation to his heritage. Finding someone who could make us laugh, cry, and feel all the feels was so important and she absolutely nailed it. We’re so grateful Dani was our officiant and we’re so happy to call her our friend :)

Dani was such a pleasure to work with throughout our wedding ceremony planning She was very attentive from the beginning and helped us reflect on our relationship to develop a very personalized wedding ceremony. We were absolutely touched by the ceremony she was able to create for us because it really captured our values. Our wedding guests would not stop raving about how lovely our ceremony was. We HIGHLY recommend you hire Once upon a vow.

Dani officiated our wedding in NYC and it was the best decision we could have made to have her wed us. Once Upon A Vow's method of crafting the love storytelling for your wedding is so unique and special. Dani took the time to truly get to know us as a couple and ask the deep questions that have you appreciating the journey you and your soon to be spouse have had. The process was very inclusive as well, we got to see a rough outline ... to keep an element of surprise and we could not have been happier. The impact Dani had during our ceremony was incredible. The room was filled with love and our guests left amazed with the work Dani had done. I've been constantly asked how was it that they were able to depict such an amazing picture of our love journey and I have to say this is Dani's superpower. Thank you again for such a memorable moment that will forever be in our core memory <3

We are so happy with how Karla told our story! Karla shared who we are and how we met in the most beautiful and fun way. Our guests continue to tell us how captivating it was for them to learn more about my wife and I. Karla was also gracious enough to throw in some Spanish which made me and my family feel represented and included in so many ways. Thank you Karla, we can't wait to rewatch our wedding videos specifically for the ceremony.

A genuine pleasure to work with!

5 stars does not come close to how amazing once upon a vow was. I searched for a bilingual officiant due to my heritage. It meant a lot for my mother to be involved in one of those most important days of my life. Not only were they supportive and open to our ideas, but they were very consistent! The day of the wedding we met with Dani and she honestly made us feel like she was family. We felt so comfortable and even though we were in front of strangers in NYC she made us feel like we were the only ones in that moment. She related to us she made us laugh and cry and I instantly knew she MADE that day memorable. We did not want her to leave ! Haha I will 100% recommend once upon a vow to everyone.!

Karla was everything my wife and I hoped for in an officiant and more. She immediately got us and our story and worked with us to refine the ceremony into a beautiful, meaningful reflection of our values and love for each other. We have received so many compliments on how heartfelt, personal, and joyful the ceremony was. Many of our guests thought she was a long-lost friend! Karla made the whole process so stress free, easy, and fun and her energy helped our loved ones appreciate the ceremony as much as we did. Highly recommend!

Due to some poor planning on my part, my partner and I found ourselves without an officiant less than three months to the big day. We hadn't asked the person close to us that we had planned and then ended up not wanting to burden them with the task on the big day. Our planner recommended Once Upon A Vow, and we reached out around 11 weeks out from the ceremony. We heard back immediately from Dani, and she immediately got to work. Following one questionnaire and maybe 3 hours together total, Dani put together one of the most beautiful ceremonies and knew so much about our story and our relationship. As a queer couple, we didn't have a ton of ideas for the ceremony itself, and we had so many questions / uncertainty about what we wanted the ceremony to be. Dani guided us through this seamlessly and gave us countless ideas to help shape the story and the event itself. All of our guests complimented Dani and thought she was a family or friend due to how much she "got us." I didn't know what to expect / was unsure about hiring an officiant and not using someone in our "circle," but honestly, Dani was the best choice we could have made, and I am so grateful for her and Once Upon A Vow. Truly the best person, the best officiant, and a must have at any wedding / ceremony.

My Husband and I were so lucky to come across Once Upon A Vow when we were looking for an officiant. Dani is REALLLLYYYY good at what she does!!!! Dani truly made our ceremony so perfect! Everyone loved her and her amazing work. We all had a great time! Words cannot express how much we appreciate all of her kindness and guidance during this journey! Dani personalized our ceremony based of a questionnaire and information she gathered when we met virtually. It was truly a beautiful surprise to stand by her and hear her say our story in the personalized ceremony. Many guests thought Dani knew us for years! Many were touched by it all and most importantly, my husband and I truly felt the moment so real and the love beautifully. We owe that to Dani. Everything went amazingly well and we cannot express how appreciative we are for everything that Dani did for us! We HIGHLY recommend Once Upon A Vow to anyone that needs their services.

Dani deserves the highest possible rating ! She is incredible! We first got in contact with Dani in November 2020. Due to visa difficulties and the pandemic we had to change our date three times! Our first date was booked for July 25 2021. We were finally married June 14 2022! Throughout this time Dani was extremely helpful and understanding! She made the wedding side of our visa application stress free! When it came to the day and ceremony, Dani was AMAZING! We couldn’t have hoped for anything better! She had listened to everything we had said and incorporated it into the ceremony! Our families were shocked at how amazing she was!

We cant recommend "Once Upon A Vow" Highly enough! Karla was our Wonderful Wedding Officiant and she made our day so special! From her funny, full of love and encouragement, emails - to the reorganization of our elopement many times due to covid - Karla was always there! We eloped from the UK and Karla was super helpful and officiant at providing information and answering our questions, we felt so at ease! On the big day we were so pleased to finally meet her in person, and her words touched us so much! Our children were welcomed with open arms to join in our ceremony, they also loved her! KARLA - Thank you again - so so much! You will forever be part of our Wedding Day!

My Fiancé and I were planning a small intimate ceremony and really wanted to get the atmosphere right. Dani was personable and very easy to work with. We had a meet and greet virtual session where she asked us questions about our love story. We had a blast revisiting our cherished memories and sharing them with her. Although some questions really made us think, they were critical to her getting a personalized ceremony created for us. It was well worth it. We had an inter-faith, multilingual wedding where we blended our Mexican and Jewish heritage. Dani did an amazing job combining our story while honoring traditions that echoed our upbringing. The ceremony felt elegant and made some of our guests tear up. We wholeheartedly recommend Dani for your wedding, she will truly make your wedding feel special and one-of-a-kind. -Claudia and Paul

Where to begin! Dani exceeded any expectations we could have possibly had - she was amazing! Truly made our ceremony so incredibly special, filled with both laughs and tears and oozing with personality that fit exactly with our style. She was a total pro while being fun and brought the most positive, magnetic energy! Could not recommend her enough. <3

It's hard to put into words how amazing Daniela was for our ceremony. We planned an NYC elopement just the two of us and as soon as we spoke to Dani it was like speaking to someone you'd known for ages. We did an online call initially where we told Dani about us and our relationship and got to meet her initially. From there we had endless support in applying for the licence and even when I had a last minute panic that I might not have the right details, Dani was more than happy to have me send it all over and reassure me. On the day of the ceremony itself Dani was there waiting for us, and she just radiated the happiness we felt. The vows were beautiful, so much more than the traditional and felt so personal and the ceremony itself included so many of the details and information we'd shared during that initial call and was so us it was perfect. After the ceremony Dani stayed with us a while for some photos (she let us have a photo with her) and even carried my bag for me, whilst making sure I was Ok in my by that time, painful shoes. If you are looking for someone to give you a personalised beautiful ceremony, look no further, added bonus of how lovely Dani is. Thank you Dani! <3

We cannot thank Dani enough for making our ceremony so special. From the minute we first emailed to start planning our ceremony it felt like we were chatting to a life long friend. Dani made us feel at ease straight away and done the perfect job shaping and conducting our ceremony. We could not have wished for anything better it was truly amazing. From planning in 2020, having to postpone for 2 years, waiting not knowing if our wedding would even go ahead due to the pandemic Dani was there for us throughout. From updates on how things were in NYC, watching how Once Upon A Vow adapted weddings around the pandemic, to posting a beautiful Instagram story on what would have been our original wedding date in May 2020 right up to our wedding on 24th March 2022! Dani has always been so friendly, supportive, personalised, fun, full of ideas and very responsive. We eloped from Scotland, UK - so were unfamiliar with the marriage process in NYC - Dani made this so simple. She gave us step by step guides on how to apply for our marriage licence and everything else in between right up to getting married and sending off our completed marriage license. No question was silly and Dani responded swiftly with all the answers. Our ceremony was beautiful, we could not have asked for anything better. The way in which Dani tells your love story and conducts your ceremony was so special and we will cherish this forever. Dani took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted this in to something beautiful. We cannot thank Dani enough for this. We are in awe of your work and will be forever thankful for everything you done to make our day so perfect. Thank you so much, Riah & Steven

I don't even know how to express how wonderful it was to have Karla (and Dani) as a part of our big day. Karla transformed a simple ceremony into something truly personal and special. My partner and I went into this process looking for something basic to mimic a City Hall ceremony (in lieu of going to city Hall due to the high demand and worrying we would not secure an appointment.) From my initial interactions with Dani and Karla, we knew their vibes were a good match, so we sealed the deal immediately! What I was not expecting was the incredible care and communication that Karla put in to learning more about us to then craft such a perfect officiant speech and vows. Her check-ins leading up to our wedding day were well-timed and made us feel totally prepared and excited. I thank them both very much for being a part of our wedding and going above and beyond to give it a personal touch along with mountains of enthusiasm and excitement for us :)

We were so lucky to find Karla, and Once upon a vow, It was meant to be!. We had to change our plans last minute due to a blizzard, and Karla was so flexible and willing to walk to us and face a snowstorm to get us married if needed. Not only that, but Karla went above and beyond and performed a beautiful ceremony, half in English and half in Spanish. She made sure (even on short notice) to learn about us and our relationship and include all of those little and meaningful details on the ceremony. She made us feel so special that we really can’t express how thankful we feel to have connected with her. We can’t recommend her highly enough!!

I don't even know where to start with reviewing Daniela at Once Upon A Vow. She was absolutely fantastic! We started our journey with her in 2019 with a scheduled elopement date of 12-12-20 in front of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree...which was postponed due to covid and rescheduled to 12-12-21. From start to finish she went above and beyond. We met with her in a coffee shop to answer some questions and so she could just get a feel for what we were looking for, the conversation flowed like we knew each other for years! She made us feel so warm and comfortable with the whole experience and I couldn't wait for her to perform our ceremony. The attention to detail was outstanding and her enthusiasm was a shining light having to plan a ceremony from Florida. As the date got closer, she sent an outline of what she was going to say and sent us instructions on getting the marriage license. It was all a very painless experience and I have to give that credit to Daniela! As the day arrived, we had a couple hurdles with location, and she actually went out early and sent us pictures of alternate spots. In the end it couldn't have been a more perfect location! She even surprised us with some additional details in the ceremony that we didn't even remember mentioning to her and it melted our hearts! Not to mention the extra personalized touches and nods to my favorite Christmas movie Elf! I would choose her over and over again!!!

OK!!! Daniela literally blew us away with how amazing and personal she made our ceremony. We got married 11/20/21, and SOOOO many of our guests asked us "where did you find her???" or. "how did you meet her, she knows you two so well!". Welp, I didnt know her. I knew her as the wonderful officiant who married my sister and brother in law back in 2018. She is so calming and certain of herself and it makes everyone in the room feel at ease and as a family. We wanted a love story as our ceremony. We didnt want religion at all, but we do believe in how energy and the universe connects us, and she made us feel so connected and loved in this ceremony. We did a beer mixing ceremony which was her idea and SO FUN!! I also wanted to incorporate my mom in some way since my dad had the opportunity to walk me down the aisle and have my first dance; so she suggested we do a ring warming ceremony, which was BEAUTIFUL. If anyone is looking for a good vibe, loving human who can tell a love story while legally marrying you and your best friend - please please PLEASE consider Daniela from Once Upon a Vow. <3

When I found Once Upon A Vow, I was simply looking for a bilingual officiant. Karla was simply amazing and exceeded expectations I didn't even know I had for my wedding ceremony. Karla had us fill out questionnaires to get to know us before we met over video chat. It was such an organic conversation with her getting to know our story and what made us the couple we are. Once we received the outline for the ceremony it all felt so real and it was beautiful. A perfect blend of English and Spanish without sounding repetitive. She captured our sense of humor and importance of family. I thought I knew what to expect for the big day. I WAS MISTAKEN! Karla snuck in some gems that had everyone laughing and crying and really making the ceremony personal. You could feel the work she put into making our day unique and special. I can't stress enough on how perfect she made our wedding day.

Karla was our officiant on our very tiny minimony ceremony. When planning our little gathering, we actually went back and forth a few times, discussing if we needed an actual officiant or not. Well, I cannot tell you how beyond thankful I am that we not only decided to have one but that we found Once Upon A Vow. From the first email exchange, Karla was incredibly friendly, warm, and supportive. Answering any questions we had and offering advice. When it came to the day of, to say we were blown away by her speech would be an understatement. From just the email exchanges alone, she managed to craft a speech that encapsulated our relationship and values in such a way that it left our family members asking if we had known her before the wedding! They couldn't believe this was the first time we had met in person! Her words were touching, hopeful, funny, and so beautifully poignant. She helped ground us in a way that allowed us to truly appreciate this wonderful, intimate moment we were sharing while also connecting this personal experience to the larger universal realities we all share. I cannot recommend her enough and we cannot thank her enough for helping make our day truly memorable!

Daniela was absolutely amazing. The survey she sent over created great conversation between us and she was so personable, even over video call. She was receptive to our ideas and feedback. Our ceremony was bilingual and she made it really inclusive. Our guests legitimately thought she was a good friend of ours because of how personal our ceremony was. We’re so lucky to have had her on our special day!

Karla was our officiant on our elopement day - and she was everything we wanted and more. Karla was friendly, personable, slightly goofy in the best way, and did an incredible job capturing our relationship and personalities (seriously, it's like she knew us for years!). She had us genuinely laughing and tearing up during our ceremony and radiated positive energy and warmth. We can't thank her enough for making our day so special and meaningful. She was also so helpful with answering questions about logistics and communicated everything really clearly with us. 100% recommend!

Daniela is incredible! She truly cares about every couple she works with and is very passionate about her job. She even stayed after the ceremony to mingle with our guests and take pictures! She met with us multiple times to learn about us and our story and made the ceremony so personalized our guests thought we wrote her speech for her. It honestly felt like having your best friend officiate your wedding. She made our day more special than we could have imagined.

Went above and beyond for our wedding ceremony, and made it happen with two weeks of notice. Dani truly SHOWED UP for us, and our wedding that took place AFTER MIDNIGHT. They we so easy to communicate with, and so lovely and easygoing - and they helped made our wedding flawless. <3

Daniela was our wedding officiant, and did such an amazing job! Multiple friends and family members specifically complimented Daniela and our ceremony. One uncle mentioned how comfortable we were (which was largely because of Daniela's expert guidance!), and how many moments of joy there were throughout the ceremony. Someone even asked if she was a friend of ours, because it seemed like she'd known us for years. The ceremony she wrote perfectly encapsulated our story, and wove in so many elements that really laid the foundation for how we envision our future together. She showed a great understanding of who we are individually and as a couple, including our mixed-faith backgrounds and cultural heritage, and helped us create moments in our ceremony that felt perfectly customized to us.

Daniela was our officient for our civil ceremony wedding. She did a fantastic job. She received the very lovely compliment of people coming up to us after the wedding asking how we knew Daniela!! We had a session or two with her prior to the Big Day where she really got to know us with her deep-dive questions. She also has a certain open, friendly style that we really liked. She wrote a ceremony script that was true to our love story, light-hearted, and poignant. Highly recommend!

My fiancé and I were looking to have a low-key, secular microwedding/elopement in the midst of COVID uncertainty this year. We loved Dani and Karla's energy and ethos right away upon stumbling on other reviews for Once Upon a Vow, and our first communication with Dani sealed the deal. Although we didn't meet Dani in-person until the day of our wedding (and then it felt like meeting an old friend), we kept in touch throughout the 3 months from booking to event, and every communication was professional, responsive, and full of excitement for us and our day. You can really tell that Dani loves her work and her couples! But beyond crafting a personalized ceremony full to the brim with details of us (Dani even practiced some Polish for it and refereed a thumb war over the vows!), what makes us recommend Dani and Once Upon a Vow to everyone is the way that Dani kept the focus on us and our love. Although this seems obvious in a wedding, our day was actually thrown off-course by immediate family tragedy; a hurricane blowing through NYC the day-of; and multiple venue and plan changes within 12 hours of the ceremony; and still Dani managed to make the day feel like a dream come true. She was extremely responsive, understanding, and flexible leading up to the ceremony, with great recommendations for each obstacle that cropped up. At the end of the day, our wedding day was a full celebration of our love, and thanks to Dani's skill, talent, and absolutely perfect ceremony, neither we nor our families remember anything other than us getting married that weekend. If that's not fairytale magic, then I don't know what is! We can't thank or recommend Dani highly enough to anyone looking for a love-filled, personable, and stress-free experience.

Karla was so lovely to work with! She took the time to get to know us even though we're from out of town and made our ceremony personal, almost like a close friend was performing it! She was so enthusiastic and helpful, I would recommend this personalized experience to everyone!

Dani was amazing! With only a few small details she completely personalized our ceremony. It was perfect and so “us”.

Dani es una persona que le encanta su trabajo, pues hizo una ceremonia inolvidable para mi y mi esposa no tenemos palabras para describir su profesionalismo, paciente, humilde y alegre. Le agradezco q a pesar de no que nosotros no sabemos mucho de tecnología ella se tomó el tiempo para ayudarnos 😘😘😘

Dani was absolutely amazing. Her love story telling touched every nostalgic moments in our relationship. Me and my husband appreciate her god blessed talent. She will guide you every details that you need and provide you one of the most memorable moment in the most successful way. I was very surprised that she was so responsive and I was the one that slow. Definitely trustable and I will recommend her to my friends who need a wonderful officiant!

Dani was our A-MA-ZING officiant, and my husband and I don't have enough words to thank her for all the fantastic job she did with us before, during, and after our wedding. She guided us during every step of the way via phone, email, and video, answering the gazillion questions that we had, no matter how small they were. Dani wrote the most personalize and intimate reading for our wedding, and she went far and beyond by making it bilingual for our guests whose primary language wasn't English. Everyone in our party (us included of course!) was absolutely enchanted by her energy, and all the love she poured in our ceremony. She even took extra time to take photos of the BTS pictures, and shared them with us the same day. If you are trying to find an officiant, look no further and PLEASE book them!

My wife and I were married a month ago and we still can't stop talking about how memorable our ceremony was thanks to Dani and Karla. They got to know us over the course of a few months while we planned our elopement. They were our wedding planners, officiant and on some days out therapists because wedding planning, life and a pandemic can be stressful. But with patience, calmness and humor they helped us plan a day that we will never forget. Karla was our officiant and she showcased her talent of story telling by curating our love story in a way that was honest and thoughtful.

Daniela is absolutely fantastic. We feel so incredibly lucky that she married us and made everything so personal and special. She helped make our wedding ceremony a highlight of the day and we will always cherish Daniela's passion, humor, and creativity during wedding preparations, and on the big day.

We are so glad we were able to find and book Once Upon A Vow, we highly recommend them!!! Our officiant was Karla, and she did an absolutely incredible job of distilling our love story, identifying our values & what is important to us, and crafting that into a beautiful, intimate, funny, and heartwarming ceremony. Karla checked in with us about what she was thinking regarding the ceremony and was super receptive and responsive when it came to feedback. Plus, they made everything so simple for us by walking us through all of the steps necessary to get married. So, so happy that we went with Once Upon A Vow!!

I can’t say enough about our experience with Once Upon A Vow and the amazing Daniela! I had a feeling as soon as my Google search for Brooklyn wedding officiants brought up the webpage I had found our officiant, my initial phone call confirmed it! Daniela’s excitement about our Coney Island nuptials only a few short weeks from this call was amazing. Our zoom call to work out the details was absolutely lovely; it was like talking to an old friend. Her enthusiasm and attention to detail were remarkable, every interaction fantastic. Sadly my brother passed the day before our wedding. When I called Daniela to let her know I wanted to add a remembrance of him to the day she didn’t hesitate to offer her sincerest condolences, genuine support, and the last minute change was beautiful and exactly what my family needed in that moment. She completely captured my husband and me in the ceremony so much so friends and family thought she had known us forever. We will forever be grateful to Daniela and Once Upon A Vow for making our long awaited nuptials all we ever dreamed of and more! We would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Karla was amazing! We felt an instant connection with her when we had our one and only Zoom call before our wedding. She made us feel comfortable and was so easy to talk to when we were talking about our love story. James and I fell in love with each other all over again during our call and we couldn't wait for our wedding day after ending our call with her. Our guests near and far loved how Karla spoke about our love story. There were tears and laughter. Karla was also very helpful with editing our Vows. She made our vows exchange very seamless. She had also thought about a Moment of Presence for those that had passed. We loved having her as our wedding officiant. We're so grateful for the Universe to bring us all together. Thank you Karla!

We had Dani as our Officiant and let me start with how truly amazing she is. Dani came early to help set up the zoom component of the wedding and found a solution when the hubby forgot to bring a stand for the iPad. She’s a problem solver and very quick on her toes and is completely committed in making your day perfect. The ceremony itself was beautiful and used comedic relief which was very helpful to relax my nerves. I would highly recommend her to any one else that is in search of a wedding officiant.

Karla was simply amazing!!! If you are interested in a business that is professional, responsive, yet passionate about what they provide, then Once Upon a Vow is the place to go to for your wedding. Karla took the time to get to know me and my now husband. She provided such a vibrant energy for my ceremony that was felt by everyone in attendance. I was apprehensive about my nuptials and Karla's delivery calmed any fears I had about my wedding. I've already recommended Karla to a few couples who may dive into marriage and expressed the level of happiness and satisfaction Karla provided for me and my family. You will not be disappointed!!!!!

Daniela was amazing! My husband and I eloped in NYC a few weeks ago and Dani was our officiant. She was so great to work with and easy to communicate with!! She made our ceremony fun, thoughtful, and specific to our relationship. It was a beautiful ceremony!! She even took some behind the scenes footage our our first dance which we are so grateful for! We highly recommend Once Upon a Vow and Daniela :)

Daniela from Once Upon A Vow was a dream to work with! She was super easy to communicate with and was very accommodating. She personalized our City Hall elopement by including special touches that highlighted our relationship perfectly throughout the short wedding ceremony. We absolutely would recommend Daniela and Once Upon A Vow!
