Positively Charmed! Custom Ceremonies

morable than I ever could have hoped.

ding (aka beautiful). Everything including Leslie was wonderful. I wouldn’t have changed anything. :)

ten, and it only needed a couple little tweaks. Leslie was incredible to work with at our rehearsal, and the actual ceremony went great! Everyone commented on how beautiful it was!

to mind are intuitive, adaptable, accommodating, transparent, sincere, and profoundly educated on the topics that are essential in creating a personalized, mutli-dimensional, deeply meaningful wedding ceremony. Not only does she hold a deep respect for numerous spiritual and philosophical beliefs- she also possesses a thorough understanding of each of their practices and intricacies, and an appreciation for the ways in which these beliefs are distinct, as well as how they intersect with one another. Our ceremony (which was entirely customized based upon the sincere lengths to which Leslie went in understanding mine and my husband’s character traits and personal beliefs, both as individuals and as a couple) was rich with unity, integrity, and celebratory love. In a consultation with Leslie, one will feel that she is a psychologist, a profound author, a theologian, and a very dear friend, all rolled into the same human being. My husband and I will forever cherish Leslie’s brilliant, integral role in our beloved wedding day.

our day SO special!

nted to stay true to our thoughts and beliefs while still accommodating our families more religious nature. We received great reviews from our families as well; everyone was very pleased with the ceremony and loved how personal and special it was. Leslie was a joy to work with from the very beginning. The process of hiring and scheduling was very easy. But more importantly she had a special way of making us feel at ease and opening us both up to a beautiful conversation about our relationship. After our initial meeting with her my husband and I both felt like we had been through an uplifting therapy session. Fun Fact: Leslie also officiated my dad and stepmom’s ceremony in Duluth, MN in 2013. Something we didn’t realize until after when booked and had our first meeting with her!

would need and was the perfect combination of leader and encourager for our big group. She also helped decorate for the day of the wedding making sure the focal point for the ceremony was as beautiful as we’d imagined. She went above and beyond coming to help take down, too. Thank you, Leslie!

ether so far, as well as framing up the values we want to have throughout our marriage. We were really impressed with Leslie from the start when she took over an hour to get to know us before we had even booked with her! She made us feel really comfortable though out the entire planning process and we had so much fun in our counseling sessions with her. We received so many compliments during and after our wedding on how beautiful our ceremony was and it is all thanks to her!

slightly different beliefs on religion, (which stressed me out in regards to how we were going to perform our wedding ceremony) but she made us realize that no matter what our beliefs, we could still have a beautiful and meaningful ceremony that made us both feel comfortable. After meeting her we decided to see her for some pre-marital counseling that she offers as well and we could not be happier that we did it! She gave us "homework" to practice at home that we are still using months later! Best of all we now have someone we can turn to if needed in the future that we are very comfortable talking with. Back to the ceremony, she prepared a beautiful personalized script for our ceremony that she let us read over beforehand. It was amazing to hear what she had gathered about us as a couple that we didn't even realize! We decided to write our own vows, and Leslie read them over before the wedding to make sure that they weren't too different from one another. She gave us advice for the wedding day such as tucking away for 10 minutes of alone time after the ceremony, and making a plan for guest greeting so we didn't get pulled away from each other. She truly thought of everything! All evening our guests were raving about how beautiful and personal the ceremony was, that they have never witnessed one so intimate. Your search for an officiant should stop here!

ything flow the day of.

re - the wording she used throughout the ceremony was neutral and made everyone happy. We couldn't have been happier with Leslie going the extra mile on our special day and meeting a few times before with us. We got a lot of compliments about her and loved the ribbon hand holding ceremony that my Grandma helped with during! <3

and Leslie was able to give us that and so much more! During our first meeting, before we had signed any contract, she sat with us for almost two hours getting to know us and our story. She has an extensive knowledge in premarital counseling, theology and religious studies. Her background gave us a perspective on marriage I didn't expect. We went through several premarital sessions with her before the big day and it was worth it! She dug deep into our history and gave us ways as to how we can work even better together. On our wedding day, Leslie was very professional, calming and genuine. Our ceremony was completely customized, and our friends and family absolutely loved how personal it was to my husband and I's relationship. We decided to write our own vows as well and Leslie gave us several tips and tricks for getting the best results. All in all, our day was truly about us as a couple, and I couldn't have been more pleased with our experience with Leslie as our officiant. She was perfect!

quick with emails & we did our pre-maritial counseling. She was awesome to work with and great on the wedding day and took the time to help us out with small things on the day of.

her close friends or friends of friends. The officiant was the only role we weren't able to fill from among our close circles. Nearly all of our guests commented after the ceremony that it felt like she had known us for our entire relationship, when in fact she was the only one who hadn't! We spent just 1.5 hours with her in preparation, and from that she was able to create the most personal, beautiful and intimate ceremony of our dreams. She even enthusiastically lead an "Everybody say LOVE!" shout out with all of our guests a la RuPaul's Drag Race per our request! Her big smile throughout our ceremony was a steady and warm reminder to enjoy the moment we were in and not let our nerves distract us. We could not recommend her more. Thank you Leslie!!!

us and listened carefully to what we wanted for our ceremony. She told our story so beautifully on our wedding day that the ceremony ended up being the most special part of the wedding for both me and my husband. We also rented some decor pieces from her shop and she generously offered to transport them to and from the venue. We would recommend Leslie to any couple looking for an officiant who will deliver a unique and meaningful ceremony on their wedding day! We love watching the video from our ceremony and remembering this special time. Megan & Andrew

y husband and I are both communications professionals, and we did not have a single edit to her moving ceremony. She absolutely encapsulated our love story and the spirit of "us." I would highly recommend registering for Leslie's pre-marital counseling sessions too. It's a wonderful time to connect with your partner, share a vision for your future and learn tools to maintain a healthy, strong marriage. Leslie made both of us feel incredibly comfortable. Plus, this quality time allows her to get to know you as a couple, so you have a bond going into your big day. Leslie, we are so grateful for you.

th her as our officiant, she let us know all the details that we needed to know way ahead of time so then we could have everything in place like our Marriage License! She also understood what our love meant to each other, and she wrote up a wonderful ceremony that fit perfectly! On the day of, she lead the rehearsal well and explained everything so our wedding party knew exactly what to do! Working with her as our florist, she understood our vision for our flowers and came up with excellent ideas to match our theme. Our theme was "Elven Woods", so she picked a fantastic collection of moss, ferns, and some succulents. Her rates were also not too bad compared to other florists. For us, there was no transportation costs (which I think some florists charge) because the mansion is her office! The candles and other pieces that she had were great and made the day feel magnificent! Leslie's attitude has always been a supportive and open one! She has been so flexible in changing plans or themes for either the ceremony or the decorations! It has really been a pleasure to work with Leslie on our Wedding day and I strongly recommend that future couples check out what she has to offer!

lm presence and speaks so well to a crowd. We had so many people tell us that our ceremony was the best they had ever seen and we owe so much of that to Leslie!

dy begun the process of mapping out our ceremony. She spent our meetings getting to know us as people and as a couple, and used that knowledge to tell our story to our guests. It was an easy process, and Leslie is fantastic at what she does. You can trust that on a day where everyone has the tendency to be stressed and anxious that you will not have to stress about Leslie or your ceremony! You will be in good hands with Leslie at Positively Charmed.

for the ceremony, and she truly expressed us in the ceremony. She also did some decor for us and set up candelabras for our reception at the Semple Mansion - they looked absolutely stunning on the reception tables!

akes you feel like we've known her forever. She really listens to what we wanted for the ceremony. Bonus, she also provided and decorated our ceremony space. It was absolutely beautiful! Leslie is the absolute best!!

e met with, we knew she was the right one for us, and she did not disappoint. I think back about that first meeting and find myself blown away by the level of detail she was able to collect. Since our wedding in July, we continue to hear from our guests saying that our ceremony was so special and fit us perfectly. One of my friends thought that Leslie must have been a family member because she seemed to know us so well! We will cherish the ceremony that Leslie put together for us for the rest of our lives. If you’re looking for an officiant to put together a well-crafted, customized ceremony, look no further!

quests (we had many), and kept us on track during our wedding day. We took a risk having one vendor as our officiant, decorator, and day of coordinator but Leslie far exceeded our expectations with everything she did. I highly recommend that you hire Positively Charmed!

beautiful and thoughtful, it felt to me like she had known us for years. Everyone at our wedding raved about her and how great she was! I would recommend her to any couple getting married!

l which was a HUGE relief for me. I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to do the ceremony. :)

brought a wonderful energy to the ceremony and I can't imagine a better fit for us. The best part was receiving a copy of the script she used for the ceremony. Truly, thank you for doing such a great job!

emony planning process which was helpful given we were planning from out of state. She also met with us in person a week before our wedding when we finally arrived to town to get to know us in person before our big day which was so appreciated. She was very organized and helpful throughout the entire planning process and provided us many suggestions and resources throughout our time working with her. She was a wonderful choice for us and we are still getting compliments on our ceremony which was a month ago!

amazing at the rehearsal the night before the way she took charge, organized the group, and told us exactly how to walk, stand, hold our hands, etc. etc. The manner in which she communicated was so professional and orderly yet really made it fun for everyone (lots of laughs) and put everyone at ease! Leslie constantly had a smile on her face, very warm and welcoming, and you can clearly tell she loves what she does. The photographer sent my daughter and her husband a few preview photos from the wedding and I noticed Leslie made a point to step to the side for the bride and groom "kiss" shot because it was just the two of them in the photo. It is the subtle little things that Leslie did like that where you know you have a true professional who knows what they're doing! I can't thank Leslie enough! It was so very nice meeting her and I hope our paths cross again sometime in the future! I highly recommend Leslie! Sincerely, The Bride's Mom

ly Charmed has a wide selection of decor for any special event. Leslie is fun to work with and her passion for decor and design is evident when you work with her. Leslie blew away our expectations as a day of wedding coordinator and I cannot begin to explain how grateful we were to have her on our wedding day. Leading up to the wedding day was stress free because Leslie was doing all last minute coordination between vendors and even the wedding party. On the wedding day she was the point of contact for all vendors coming in and out of the venue with deliveries and ensuring that set up was done in the correct way. Leslie went above and beyond to make our wedding day flawless. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and is definitely an expert in her services. I would highly recommend Positively Charmed for any wedding or event.

o know us as individuals and as a couple and ensured that we had the day of our dreams.

married. Leslie being an enlightened and spiritual soul also is talented at bringing the things in the heart and soul to light during the ceremony to really say things that will touch everyone in the room. Spend the time with her and you'll quickly know your wedding is in good hands.

ighly recommend that brides check her out and see her inventory because she has beautiful rental pieces. She also works with your budget and gives excellent suggestions. She did an extremely thorough job and executed my vision perfectly keeping any eye on details which was something very important to me. Thank you so much Leslie!

y through your ceremony you will not regret choosing her.

ing. We also completed premarital counseling with Leslie. She did a wonderful job crafting the language for our ceremony and we couldn’t have been more pleased! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and creative officiant.

ame is 4 whole days for the same price as most places charge to have just for 2 days. They have lot's and lots of choices to make your event as special and one of a kind!!

ch!!! Leslie provided delivery and assisted with set up as well as take down of the rentals. Her passion for "celebrating" each experience shows. I would highly recommend using this vendor for any décor rentals!

h and took it to the next level!! She did everything for our head table and it was stunning!! So glad we hired her, it wouldn't have looked so beautiful without her help!

eriod. She made the day so much more magical. She not only managed every item of decor we requested but creatively and beautifully implemented it all. Her collection of decor items is amazing. She was a delight to work with and I expect we will keep in touch.

whelming at all. Her floral work is absolutely beautiful but also extremely affordable.

ting where she let us read through the ceremony, both my husband and I were teary-eyed. Leslie truly captured who each of us were, how our love story played out, and how we wanted it to continue being created. She put humor into the ceremony which is perfectly us :) During the rehearsal, she took charge and made it quite seamless (which was great because our nerves were quite high at that time). And day of, she was that soothing rock when emotions were heightened in anticipation of the ceremony. She took care of sending in our marriage license which was helpful since we left a couple days later to go on our honeymoon. She also provided us with our ceremony typed out on some really nice paper that we plan on making some sort of wedding collage with. All in all, you can't go wrong with Leslie as your officiant :)

for a customized, non-traditional/non-religious ceremony and she highly delivered! She spent a few sessions doing marriage counseling and getting to know each of us individually and as a couple. She truly knows how to personalize her ceremonies, and if you don’t like something in her draft she will gladly make changes. By the time the wedding day came, Leslie felt like family, which was such a great feeling. Since her office is at Semple Mansion, we also loved to see the décor she had for rent and decided her décor was a perfect fit for our venue. We wanted a romantic, Gatsby look, so we rented beautiful gold chandelier candelabras and mercury glass votives. The reception décor was simply breathtaking and we received so many compliments on both the ceremony and décor. I would highly, highly recommend Leslie for décor rental or ceremonies! She is truly a fantastic person and made our wedding and ceremony an extremely special day!

d ceremony. It was special to us to have something unique. We received a lot of compliments after the ceremony ended! We would also recommend working with Leslie for premarital sessions. She did a wonderful job of talking through some of the challenges we were having. She played a major role in ensuring our day went smoothly and we would highly recommend her.

to involve in the ceremony. As well as what was not as important. She took time to get to know us and help us plan over the miles. She recommended our wonderful piano player, who we may not have found on our own. She was always quick to respond and so lovely to be around when we would meet. Our ceremony was so meaningful because of her words and what she learned about us. We wanted traditional but modified to represent our love. She nailed it. We heard so many guests comment on how beautiful and unique our ceremony was. That was wonderful to hear because we did not do much. we focused on the message and the love. We skipped some traditions but our ceremony certainly was not lacking. It was perfect. We LOVE Leslie. We are so thankful to have had her involvement in our wedding.

a ring box and popping 'the question' as the whirling world slowed and the magic set in. Floating above the concrete on our way back across the bridge, we called Leslie and asked her to marry us. The three of us cried in celebration as we cemented the time and the place. Knowing Leslie as we do, and keeping the wedding very small and simple, I was prepared for a casual approach to the planning, but Leslie took every detail of our special day very seriously. She was so wholly present. And on that very hot and humid day in June, on the Stone Arch Bridge, she wove a spell that drew all of us in. At once playful and witty, deeply spiritual and wise, Leslie conducted our nuptials with grace and eloquence as the Mighty Mississippi roared beneath us. None of us will forget that beautiful day, with Leslie at the center of our celebration of love.

hip, etc. After our first meeting with Leslie, we knew we wanted her as the officiant for our wedding. Leslie was extremely flexible in terms of her approach to our particular worldviews, which helped us settle down a lot considering it was a non-religious ceremony. She provided us with a number of resources for inclusions in the ceremony, readings, and general tone of the ceremony. She was even open to us incorporating some of our own ideas for readings and tweaks to different parts of the ceremony. When it came time to the final version of the passages used in the ceremony, Leslie crafted a beautiful set of personalized lines that were unique to both of us. She didn’t just rehash stock passages, but really took the time to write things up based on all the little chats we had had during our meetings that gave her some insight into who we were. Leslie was also instrumental in designing the ceremony. After discussing how we wanted to incorporate our families, Leslie showed up to the rehearsal with some unexpected, but wonderful ideas (like hugs for the wedding party as they entered the venue). And lovely little details, like preparing a small journal-like book for the wedding day itself. Every piece adding to the moment and setting a wonderful tone for the day. And during the ceremony, Leslie was great at delivering all of the passages with patience and warmth. She was so very pleasant from start to finish, and we cannot thank her enough for helping to make our day something unique."

ditional couple and we knew we wanted to really craft our own ceremony to reflect the two of us. We didn't know, however, how to do that. I also initially wanted the ceremony would be short and sweet so we could move onto the fun part -- the reception. Through various sessions, Leslie helped us put together what turned out to be the most special part of our day for me. She had so many ideas of how to make it "us." We incorporate aspects of Judaism and Christianity, non-traditional music and readings, and involved our friends and family. It was clear on our wedding day and during our ceremony that Leslie truly knew us; she didn't just think of this as another job. Her energy was also felt by everyone. She truly knows how to celebrate love. We also did the two session counseling with Leslie. I was so grateful to have a forum for an open conversation where John and I could get to know each other better, ask each other questions we hadn't before, and think about our future together. We learned so much about relationships and growing together and we know we have a stronger bond because of it. I am so thankful for how Leslie helped shape our special day and I would recommend Leslie in a heartbeat.

e was very personal, we were comfortable with her immediately. We collaborated on our ceremony script with her and it turned out better than we could have anticipated. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants the perfect ceremony. Make an appointment to meet with her today you won't be disappointed!

HER PREMARITAL CLASSES!!! I can't tell you how much we LOVED them and how much they legitimately improved and deepened our love and bond. She's a truly fascinating person with incredible insights. Our hour appointments oftened turned into two or three hour sessions because we could not get enough!! I believe we did about four sessions with her, but based on our ceremony our guests thought she had known us for years. At the rehearsal she made sure everyone knew what they were doing and had a no nonsense attitude which I appreciated. She's a beautiful speaker and really goes out of her way to write something specific to you. If you don't want a run of the mill ceremony and instead are looking for a personalized, intimate and beautiful ceremony, Leslie is your girl!! We already miss our sessions with her. Thank you, Leslie!!!

, asking questions to get to know us further. While meeting in person, Leslie was a great coach and understood perfectly what we wanted for our ceremony. Leslie shared with us the custom ceremony that she had written on our final meeting before the big day, and she knocked it out of the park. Our story was accurately captured and put on paper in the most eloquent way. The rehearsal was to the point and everyone felt well prepared in a short period of time, considering it was the morning of our wedding and there was much to be done! Our ceremony was beautiful. Leslie's delivery of the ceremony was perfect. She was engaging, always had a smile on her face, even got caught up a bit in the emotion of the evening. It was supremely evident that she cared a great deal about Renee and I and felt privileged to be the one to deliver to our audience the story of "us." Not only is Leslie a wonderful orator, she was organized and made sure that our wedding party and guests were as well. Leslie at Positively Charmed! has my highest recommendation. Thank you again for presiding over the best evening of my life! Paul Malazita

style and what we were looking for out of our special day. She was always so welcoming and so nice through out the entire process and this really put us at ease about the day to come. The day before the wedding, we had our rehearsal and things were planned out so well and flowed perfectly. The day of the wedding, she was so excited for us and her speech which she took all these notes during our 2 meetings were turned into this beautiful ceremony and I will tell you there wasn't a dry eye in that entire building, it had so many tears of joy and told such a great story about us as a couple. Leslie really made our ceremony one of the best days of our lives and I would have gave her 10 stars if I could. Thanks so much Leslie for all the Love and the great speech you put together for the ceremony, it was just beautiful!!

re looking for a personal ceremony made just for you she is the one, definitely takes the time to get to know you and work your personalities into the ceremony.

ry and she put so much time into our ceremony that I didn't have and it all turned out perfect. It was like having an extra maid of honor because she honestly helped us sort out and organize the entire ceremony and helped us stay on track the day of. Couldn't have asked for anyone better !!

ind, caring, soft and so easy to talk to. If you want her to help decorate your special space, we also highly recommend that as well! I lived in Minneapolis for over five years and worked on a lot of weddings myself...have BEEN to many, as well. Leslie is by FAR the best officiant I have ever heard, spoken sith, dealt with. We obviously, just love her and want everyone else in MPLS to feel the same about their special day:)

mmended her to 2 loved ones!

stood what my fiance and I were looking for and she was extremely accommodating. Additionally, I also didn't have to worry about little details with her, especially on the wedding day, she took care of everything!!! Finally, her prices are the best in town, as my fiance and I found out after visiting various other companies. My fiance and I would definitely recommend Leslie to anybody!!! Kate

important to us. Her workbooks and methods taught us a lot more about each other than we expected, and helped improve our communication and lessen the stress of wedding planing. Leslie also made sure to truly integrate our passions into the ceremony which was important to us. I would highly recommend to any couple who is looking for counseling and a uniquely written ceremony. We would have been lost without her.

would be perfect. We met with her twice before the big day and she was SO helpful in creating a custom ceremony for us. She truly took the time to get to know us as a couple and her message on wedding day reflected who we are perfectly. Thank you, Leslie!!

fferences. She has an extensive knowledge on different religions and their histories. When it came to our ceremony, we wanted to ensure that it respected both of our families' religions. Leslie did an amazing job at making sure the ceremony blended important aspects of both religions. She also made the ceremony flow incredibly well and all of our guests said it was one of the most beautiful ceremonies they have experienced!!! It was definitely our favorite;) Leslie is respectful and wants to see your vision come to life. She is so very skilled and is an excellent resource throughout the planning process. We are so happy that we found Leslie Johnson and chose her to be our officiant!

d us a great space to learn more about our relationship and allowed Leslie to get to know us better which really shined in our ceremony. Leslie not only crafted the most beautiful ceremony that fit our relationship, space & families she also armed us with a lot of knowledge on how the flow of a ceremony should be (she has so much experience in the wedding industry!) so our ceremony was stress-free the day of! I cannot recommend her enough.

lie we knew we wanted her to do our ceremony! We connected on so many levels and I felt like she really understood what we wanted. The best thing about her services is she makes the ceremony so personal and relate-able to the couple. She ties in common themes of your relationship to other elements like nature, the space you're getting married in, etc. to really bring everything together eloquently and personally. She has a very calming vibe and it was very helpful to have that in the midst of wedding day chaos! I got many compliments on the ceremony from friends and family who loved her style of really bringing the couple and their story into the ceremony, as opposed to common language used at most wedding ceremonies. We would definitely have Leslie marry us if we could choose all over again.

ting was supposed to last, but I do know that we were there over two hours, talking, laughing, and feeling as if we were catching up with an old friend. Walking out of Leslie's (gorgeous) office, we were sold. We met with a few other people to do our due diligence, but there was no question. Leslie truly LISTENED to what we wanted for our ceremony; we had (what we felt were) a few unique requests to balance our preferences with family tradition. Leslie understood and incorporated them beautifully. Not only did Leslie listen, but she also provided suggestions and advice. We appreciated that - she is the expert! She has a fantastic arsenal of quotes, ideas, etc. that really do come together to create a customized ceremony. Throughout the wedding planning process, we also identified the need to rent decor. As our "wedding MVP", of course, Leslie was our choice! Again, she listened to our vision and executed it beautifully. Leslie met with our florist to ensure consistency and alignment with all decor elements - truly going above and beyond. We loved our meetings with Leslie preceding the wedding day. As I stated before, it was as if we were meeting with an old friend (but also a wise mentor and truly incredibly spiritual guide). Leslie was thorough, organized, and simply "on it". Leslie's execution on our wedding day was flawless. Our decor was perfect and the ceremony was a dream. EVERYONE raved about her afterwards and wanted to know "how we knew her", because it was so personalized. We joked afterwards that Leslie and her team were ninjas - when we went to check on the decor at the conclusion of the wedding, it was already cleaned up! We have no idea how they quickly and quietly took care of tear down without a single person noticing --- fabulous! I was a bride who looked at all reviews, so I've racked my brain to see if there is any "constructive criticism" I can give.... I've got nothing. I would recommend Leslie to anyone and everyone.

at we wanted to go with her services. Leslie makes a real attempt to get to know you, both as individuals and as a couple, and she uses those insights to write a beautiful and personalized ceremony. In addition, we found her premarital counseling to be extremely helpful, she is a great listener and is able to help you find common ground in areas that might not be your strong suits as a couple. It was a nice feeling to walk down the aisle and feel like the person marrying us really knew us! And our friends and families all commented on how much they enjoyed the ceremony. I would highly recommend her services and I'm so glad she was part of our wedding day.

e suggested a 'ring warming ceremony' which was perfect for our group size and something most of our guests had never heard or experienced. On our big day, my biggest concern was crying through the entire ceremony, but Leslie's steadfast and calm presence just allowed me to be in the moment without becoming overwhelmed with emotion. Thank you, Leslie! You are a blessing!

rovide a dream wedding for one military couple a year. Leslie signed up to donate her service as our officiant. Upon meeting her, I felt connected. I can sense energy and hers was the sort that draws people and holds them close. Kind, open, genuine, brilliant, creative….these are Leslies virtues. Not to mention, humanitarianism, as she donated her service and most of all, her passion, time and energy to us. Building a ceremony with Leslie was never a chore. It was a fun journey. She wanted to know us so she could tell us OUR story from OUR hearts. She often referred to it as "translating" our feelings and "braiding" them together. Through our meetings I found myself learning more about Ben and how we viewed our union spiritually and emotionally…in regards to energy, family, life, etc…I will never forget when Leslie handed us our 1st draft. We read it together, tears flowing. She took the feelings in our hearts and put them into words. She encouraged our journey of writing our own vows. She counseled us both so that we could stay at an even keel. She led our rehearsal, guiding the wedding party, empowering us to show our emotions and be unique. This was OUR ceremony and she was instrumental in making it a true reflection of us. The ceremony was the best part of the entire wedding. Many tears, and so many people felt inspired by what we shared through Leslie. I have the desire and inspiration to rewrite my vows to the love of my life every year. Thank You Leslie for being the vehicle that drives me to be a better and more expressive wife and not being afraid to share my feelings with the world. Leslie has a special place in my heart and I look forward to having her at our 10 year renewal.

at my wife and I wanted in our ceremony and did it in a very personalized way. Overall, she did a fantastic job officiating our wedding and we would highly recommend her!

officiate, but decided that was a lot of pressure. We ended up finding out about Positively Charmed from our venue and decided to set up a meeting. From the moment we sat down, we instantly felt comfortable with Leslie. She took a lot of time to meet with us and get to know us and our relationship. She laid out her process with us and said we could meet with her as many times as we wanted in the months leading up to our big day. After that first meeting, we instantly knew we wanted her to officiate our ceremony. In the near months leading up to our ceremony we met with Leslie again and she put together the most amazing, customized ceremony for us. We were blown away. We read her script together at home. We laughed and cried and I think we only had one tiny edit in the entire thing. When it came time for our rehearsal, Leslie did an amazing job leading the dry run. She kept it simple yet informative. Everyone knew what they were supposed to do. It was short and to the point so we could get back to having fun with our loved ones. The day of our ceremony, Leslie was absolutely perfect. Our ceremony was the most beautiful, true, insightful, loving event. She did such a good job of capturing our relationship and describing it to all that were in the room. We were so fortunate to have discovered Leslie of Positively Charmed. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant and a truly personalized ceremony. She's the best! And it was nice to have someone in charge of the ceremony details who is a professional. Having a loved one do the ceremony would have been memorable, but having Leslie manage the details and not have to worry about them was worth so much more and we will have the best memories of our ceremony forever.

pected. Thank you Leslie; thank you Positively Charming.
