Perfect Day Celebrations

se the way she writes and reads for the ceremony makes it sound like she’s known us forever! The entire time she was so bright, cheery and calming making us feel soo comfortable during the ceremony! She is the reason the ceremony was our favorite part of the entire wedding! Denise was an absolute blessing to us on our wedding day, we could not have asked for anything more! Excellent communication the entire time, always on time and seemed like she was genuinely happy to be there with us! Denise will always have a special place in our hearts for starting our marriage in such a beautiful and calming way just like we hoped for! Thank you Denise so so much! Xoxo Lacey + Jeff

own Denise, she made it that personal! She takes the time to get to know you as individuals and as a couple. She was timely and patient. I actually was 45 minutes late to our rehearsal the evening before due to weather/flooding of freeway and she waited and never made me feel pressed (although I was freaking out!) She has such a calming demeanor, made both of us feel comfortable and relaxed on the wedding day. She is a pleasure to work with and can say with full confidence that you will be so happy you chose her for your big day! Thank you again Denise!

nd months prior to our wedding. We got so many compliments on our officiant, with many being shocked that Denise wasn’t a close family friend, that’s how personal our ceremony was! We highly recommend Denise to anyone looking for an officiant!

l we booked her as our officiant!

her heart into creating the perfect ceremony for her couples. And her delivery of it was so heart felt, it felt like she truly cared about us and knew us.

, and felt an instant connection with Denise. We hired her the next day, and were not disappointed! She is easy to communicate with, gracious, kind, and the best people-person I’ve met in a long time. She was patient with us when we couldn’t make up our mind about vows, and had a wonderful presence at the rehearsal and the wedding ceremony. We cannot thank her enough for a beautifully written and meaningful oration. She is deserving of “The Best Of The Knot”!

remony for us. She was quick to handle the unexpected in our wedding like our dog whining. I had guests come up to me afterward to tell me how beautiful our ceremony was and what a wonderful job Denise did. I highly recommend Denise and I know she'll do an amazing job for anyone!

call with Denise, she exuded such warmth and kindness and we knew that she would be the perfect woman for the job. Denise responded very timely to all of our email and did an amazing job helping us to customize our ceremony to make it feel intimate and personal- even for a 120 person event. Our ceremony was our favorite part of the entire day, thanks to Denise, and we had so many guests coming up to us to ask how long we had known her because of all the personal detail she included in the ceremony.

chatted on the phone, you got the feeling that she truly cared about getting to know us before the ceremony and personalizing for us. My husband and I didn’t want to write our own vows and she had different vows for us to choose from. We had no problem picking out our vows and sending them to Denise and having us do a repeat after her vows in the ceremony. She was absolutely incredible going through how the ceremony would go and the things she would talk about. She sent a Q&A for us to fill out so she could understand us as a couple. She also filed our paperwork and coached us through the process. I am so grateful I found Denise and I couldn’t be happier that she was our officiant. She gave us so many wonderful pointers for the ceremony and the paperwork that I wouldn’t have known before going through the process. And for those wondering, we had a mixed ceremony (Christian and Jewish); she was able to chat with us about the things we wanted from our religions incorporated into the ceremony. It was wonderful. Can’t thank Denise enough.

ting that before telling me how stunning I looked (like HELLO priorities, people!) Honestly the time Denise takes to understand you as a couple and the help she provided with making sure our vows were perfect and most importantly, made sure they were EQUAL (so one of us didn’t outshine the other too much!). Our guests were shocked to find out Denise wasn’t a close family friend or relative the way she talked about us throughout the ceremony! Cannot recommend her enough, and cannot thank her enough for making an already special day even more magical!

bout our relationship that we shared with her. Several guests approached me after, and stated it was the best ceremony that they’d ever been to. Not only was the ceremony brilliant, but she also helped give suggestions on fun touches to add to involve family members, assisted in making sure I had everything in order with the marriage license, filing the marriage license, and running our rehearsal smoothly. Her expertise in this was so helpful during all of the crazy wedding planning . I can’t thank her enough for making our day so special.

e as she did our ceremony and made it seem like she knew us forever! She was so personable and our guest LOVED her! I truly never myself complimented an officiant at other weddings, nor heard other guest compliment them, but she is still being talked about 4 days after our wedding!! That says so much! We thank you Denise for making our ceremony so beautiful!!!

at advice. She is everything we were looking for and more. We could not have found a more perfect person to marry us. We HIGHLY recommend her to anyone searching- you will be happy choosing her. Thank you so much Denise!

ooking for but also was very knowledgeable, professional, kind, and supportive throughout the entire process. This includes even assisting with getting our marriage certificate from the county. She has a natural talent of being able to meet a couple and write a ceremony so beautifully accurate that you would think she has been a friend of the family for years. We were truly blessed to have her part of our intimate wedding and would highly recommend her for anyone’s ceremony. She has the ability to adapt and accommodate to any bride and grooms visions.

dding. She is warm and endearing, we truly felt that she is passionate about her work. I even had a few phone calls and emails checking in after postponements (due to COVID-19) and she made me feel so comforted and calm that the day would come and it would be beautiful. Denise listened to our vision for the ceremony and gave helpful suggestions as well! We even filled out a questionnaire so that we could have a personalized ceremony that emulated us as a couple. We received rave reviews from all our guests about how beautiful the ceremony was, several people even asked who we had hired! She told personal stories about us and talked about who we were as a couple. It was so nice to stand there with my best friend and hear the things we love most about each other be expressed to our closest friends and family. Thank you so much Denise for being a part of our day, we are beyond words with happiness!

al guests of ours said it was the best service they have ever seen! 10/10 she nailed it. Couldn’t have fit us as a couple better! Hopefully we only get married once... but if I have to have a second wedding, I’d definitely hire Denise again in a heart beat! Haha

ding, and kind through it all. In the end, we got married in my parents' backyard, and Denise was really nice about making the journey to their house, even though it was farther away than the original venue by an hour. She wrote and performed a lovely ceremony that was very fitting to us, with many personal details that she had asked for. Denise clearly loves what she does, and she has a warm, positive presence. :)

y that the best decision that I made for our wedding day was have Denise as our officiant! She made our wedding ceremony personal to my husband and I’s love story, and our family and friends just loved her! To be honest that is one of the number one things that so many guests have mentioned after our big day, that our officiant was incredible and made the ceremony so special and flawless. She is professional, an amazing speaker and knows exactly how to make a wedding ceremony flow beautifully. We have been watching our wedding video and every time I watch it I still can’t believe how perfect everything turned out at the ceremony. I will always recommend Denise for anyone that is looking for a wedding officiant!!

s like she had known us for years. I couldn't imagine having anyone else perform our ceremony. Not only were we blown away by her but our guests were talking about the ceremony all night and how it was one of the best they have seen in years. I highly recommend using Denise for your special day!!

mony so special :-) She is very responsive and great to work with! Hire her for your wedding, you will not regret it :-)

ople I have seen goof it up before. She was very slow and patient with us. My husband and I got so many comments from our guests on how wonderful she is! Would absolutely recommend you to check into Perfect Day Celebrations before deciding on an officiant :)

erything was extra stressful with all the uncertainty but she hung in there with us and was very supportive!

) the night before our wedding...and it was perfect.! Thank you, Denise for making our wedding day even more beautiful & memorable than I ever imagined.

s throughout the entire process. Thank you so much for helping to make our day perfect!

e left the meeting knowing we’d made the right decision. At the wedding, Denise made everyone feel like she really just “knew us” and even threw in some of our humorous vow requests that were a big hit. Thank you so much Denise for being a part of our beautiful, flawless wedding!

She met with us at times that were outside of her typical meeting times. She made our ceremony so personalized that our guests asked us how long we have known her...they thought she was a family friend. She made sure to get to know us and shared our personality traits based on her getting to know us. We cannot say enough about Denise!

ind out that we had spoken on the phone twice and met in person for the first time at the rehearsal. We also had an interfaith ceremony (Agnostic and Jewish) and her explanation of the breaking of the glass were very helpful for my side of the family to understand the significance of the moment. We are so appreciative of Denise! We highly recommend her as an officiant. She will make your day extra special!

ceremony. She felt like family up there with us. Denise is a natural at the “altar”. We would recommend her to anyone needing an officiant who is experienced and truly loves what they do.

was comfortable and relaxed. She has excellent experience and was organized with her questions and discussions. So many family members and guests were impressed with our short and sweet ceremony. My wedding ceremony was memorable and genuine. Thank you Denise! I highly recommend her services for your wedding.

ny question or concern we had. We were a little nervous prior to the big day, as she does not share her script, but we were very impressed by how well Denise told our story and made our ceremony truly something special. We had several guests tell us that they assumed we were old family friends with her because her story was that personal and heartfelt! Thank you for helping to make our big day so special!

ted. In the words of my husband- "she made it easy and calming". Thank you for being wonderful, Denise!

imagined. We highly recommend her, especially if you’re as lost as we were in what to do during the ceremony.

out of the rehearsal and wedding day for us. Our venue did not have anyone assisting us the day of our rehearsal, which made me quite nervous, but Denise directed the rehearsal and I left feeling so prepared for the wedding day! She was always quick to respond to my many emails, and willing to meet up to discuss details.

emony. Denise worked hard to create a unique ceremony incorporating both of what my husband wanted and what I needed. She was even able to incorporate my valued Filipino wedding traditions into the ceremony! She is personable, fun, and not so serious. Yet, she is professional and focused on making the day exactly how we imagined. I truly felt our ceremony went off without a hitch, and I believe it is because of Denise's hard work.

etting her know the vision we had for our wedding. Denise truly LOVES what she does with a PASSION you can tell from the moment you start to talk to her. She was absolutely perfect!

favor and contact her today! We contacted Denise via the knot inquiring to her availability for our planned date. Denise was quick to respond and immediately we knew she was the right choice. We met up to meet in person(local Starbucks), talk though logistics and make sure everything was a "fit". It was. Immediately my partner and I both felt at ease. From the time we first made contact to meeting in person we did some self reflection and decided to change nearly everything about our day, including the date. Being prepared to explain our change Denise made it clear from moment one that this day was about us and us only. She was flexible, warm and understanding and we got lucky that she was available for our new date. She shared with us, if her schedule would allow, we could count on her, and we did! We decided on an intimate ceremony with just our parents. Something Denise shared with us stuck with me, she said whether we had a ceremony with 4 people viewing or 500, she would help create a ceremony that reflected us just the same. That she did! Our ceremony was absolutely "us" and she guided us each step of the way. Denise helped create a day that was perfect for us. For anyone going though wedding planning I'm sure you can already relate to how stressful it all can be. For me, it quickly felt like the wedding process was about everyone else. Denise made it about us. Every aspect of our wedding that involved Denise was made better because of her kindness and experience. Lastly I'll share that my father, who has seen his other 4 children's weddings, said it was the best ceremony he has ever witnessed. It doesn't get any better than Denise. She made our day absolutely perfect. Contact her right now!!

put that all into amazingly beautiful words to share with our friends and family. It was unique to us and that was important. She walked us through each step and was a huge help the day of! She was wonderful!

and friends raved all night about our ceremony and how personal and perfect it was! Don't hesitate to book her for your own wedding, we are so glad that we did!

a close friend. All of our wedding guests could not stop talking about the ceremony she performed for us. It was everything I could of ever asked for. She is such a lovely and wonderful lady and I would definitely recommend her to fellow brides and grooms!

cial to us. We had so many friends and family members compliment how great she was and how they loved our ceremony. All of her hard work, expertise and preparation made our wedding day the perfect day! Thank you so much Denise!

e for the ceremony and made us feel at ease during a really hectic day. Thanks Denise!!

le questions, she wove such a lovely speech and seemed to nail it. She just has a way of telling your story. We were blessed to have her join us for dinner and she gave such a lovely blessing in honor of my late father. We had so many complements all night about how touching her ceremony was. I highly recommend Denise and she is truly a beautiful person inside and out. Thank you so much for participating in our special day, you truly made it special.

if we’d known her all our lives. We are queer and secular, and she was sensitive and knowledgeable about the issues that come with both of those. At every step she made us feel at ease, and she made all of our guests feel at ease too. We got a lot of compliments afterward on what a great job she had done.

day special and memorable. We recieved many compliments on Denise's ceremony and what a great job she did - everyone kept asking "where did you find her?" We couldn't have asked for a better officiant. Thanks again, Denise!

asked for her information after our wedding because he really liked the way she officiated our wedding, and said he will refer others to her. Denise was also very helpful with any questions we had in regards to filing paperwork for the marriage license. Overall, she really made the whole experience very enjoyable and memorable, for us and for our guests as well. I would highly recommend Denise to anyone!

ortable leaving such an important thing in her hands. At first, we did not know what we wanted for our ceremony, but after talking with Denise, she offered SO many great ideas and helped us customize our ceremony to exactly what we wanted. As the bride, I was so nervous for the ceremony and just wanted it to be done and over with, as I don't like a lot of attention on me. However, I absolutely LOVED our ceremony and it was one of my favorite highlights throughout the entire day. Not only was it such a beautiful & romantic ceremony, but my nerves went away quickly as I was standing by my husband and had Denise guide our ceremony with her soothing voice. She blew our expectations away with the ceremony she created for us, and we will never forget that special day. You won't regret hiring Perfect Day Celebrations for your ceremony!

, happy and on schedule during the rehearsal, and she will explain all the steps of the ceremony, and even provide tips on how to ensure great photos are captured. She radiates love and peaceful happiness and genuinely cares that each couple has a ceremony they will cherish.

tive, welcoming, and warm, and Denise is all of those things and more. Denise made us feel so comfortable from the first phone call and in-person meetings that we had with her, we couldn't imagine finding anyone better to officiate our wedding. And she did not disappoint. Not only did Denise craft a custom, personal, and heartfelt ceremony for our wedding, she also helped us by reviewing our vows to make sure that our lengths and tones were similar and complimentary. I found this to be comforting to have someone else check out my vows before reading them in front of all of our friends and family. She also takes care of mailing off your marriage license to make sure that you're all good to go with the state. We had so many people come up to us after our ceremony to compliment Denise and comment on how wonderful the ceremony was and what a GREAT job she did. Numerous people told us that it was the nicest wedding ceremony that they'd ever been to! Denise was an absolute joy to work with and we feel lucky to have met her. I would recommend Denise to anyone. THANK YOU, Denise! xo

r friends and family kept asking the rest of the night... “Who was your officiant? She was awesome!”. If you’re looking for someone special for your big day, you will find it in Denise. Cheers!

ory. Her responsiveness to our questions was timely and thorough, and she provided a well written, beautifully facilitated ceremony on the wedding day. We couldn’t have been happier with our experience with Denise.

should, too!

vent coordinator was awful, but overbearing and wouldn't let Denise do her job. Meanwhile Denise handled it all perfectly, with grace and was 100% prepared! The day of the wedding she was on time, walked me through everything, made sure I was calm and ready and everything went wonderful. Just her smile will help your whole day go better. She also handled the marriage license! I can't thank her enough for making our day even that much more special to us both :)

nds are going to have them as their officiant now for their wedding next year!

hings were feeling a little unorganized at the rehearsal. And Denise's smoothness and humor were perfect while conducting our ceremony! Everything went off without a hitch. Thank you so much for being amazing at what you do--you are truly a gem!!! 💛💛💛

mfortable she made us and her natural storytelling ability. I can't thank her enough for making our ceremony flawless, even when my brother forgot our rings!!! Only a true professional could have handled that with the grace she did. We would choose her again in a heartbeat!

can write a ceremony that will be deeply personal and unique to you! Hiring Denise was one of the best decisions we made to ensure that our wedding day was the best day of our lives. She has so much experience officiating weddings, and she was happy to walk us through every step of the process to make sure we had nothing to stress about. She is easy to communicate with and get a hold of with any questions. She is knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to interact with in every way. I had to change our rehearsal location, date, and time several times, and she remained fully flexible and always kind (even though I was mortified!). She even had recommendations for other vendors that I was looking for! After our ceremony, and even weeks later, we had guests rave to us about how beautiful and personal our ceremony was. We know that we would not have had such a wonderful stress-free experience, or such a perfect ceremony to represent us, if we had hired anyone else! Hiring Denise will be the best decision you make to turn your wedding day into the perfect day!

still receiving compliments on our wedding ceremony. In fact, we have even had people say they wished they had her as their officiant! Would highly recommend.

aving the type of ceremony WE wanted. Denise uses an awesome questionnaire form that allows her to get to know each couple personally and then carries that over into the ceremony. As a result, there were many intimate details incorporated into our ceremony and it felt as though she had know us for awhile. I received many compliments on her services and we are so happy to have had Denise officiate our ceremony. Thank you Denise!

sted in what we wanted. She was also dedicated to getting to know us as a couple so she could write and perform the perfect ceremony. Truly the best decision we made for our big day!

g the ceremony. She is punctual, communicative, professional, and knows this business so well. She made some great suggestions to help customize our ceremony and took the time to get to know us beforehand. Her pricing is also more than fair--she doesn't nickel and dime you for things like mileage or a custom ceremony piece. Most importantly, she helped us have a ceremony that had us both in tears of joy. We got so many compliments from our guests as well--could not recommend this rock star vendor more.

our rings and hand them to her DURING the ceremony because we had completely forgot with all of our anxiety! Yes, you read that correctly.. we walked down the aisle with our rings already ON...but we were lucky to have Denise who helped disguise it.. none of the guests even had a clue :) I would recommend using her if you want a beautiful ceremony, that is stress free and with well written vows!

de our ceremony even that much more special. She takes the time to ensure every detail is spot on and I am forever grateful for her!

and made us feel like we were her top priority, even though we knew she was managing several clients. She was in contact with our other vendors to ensure that everyone was on the same page – this took a huge weight off our shoulders the week leading up to the wedding. Based on the questionnaire we completed, Denise crafted a beautiful ceremony that was a perfect representation of our relationship. We felt that we were in great hands our entire wedding day, and we were able to relax and just enjoy the time with our family and friends. We are so thankful for all of Denise’s hard work in helping to make our wedding wonderful!

If you are looking for an officiant that will make it seem like she knows you then Denise is for you!

oing, and full of energy. We felt like we had known her for years. My husband and I are not very religious so we did not want a religious ceremony. I love that Denise provided us with a questionnaire to fill out about ourselves and our relationship to help her write our ceremony. She did such a wonderful job personalizing our ceremony to fit us. All of our guests were ranting and raving about how great Denise was. Several people even asked if we knew her before because of how much she knew and shared about us. I cannot recommend her enough! She was FANTASTIC! Choose Denise... you will not regret it!

couple, she created specific prayers that would be well-received by both families. She also suggested a handfasting ceremony, which was absolutely beautiful and touching. She easily commanded and enthralled the crowd during the ceremony and we had so many people after the wedding asking us how we found such an amazing officiant! I would 100% recommend Denise to anyone planning a wedding.
