Mitzi McInnis
Owner
Though I'm a native of Seattle, WA, I've lived in VT since 1990. In those early years I was an owner/innkeeper in Stowe, raising two sons at the foot of Mt. Mansfield. With direct access to hiking and skiing, our lives were full of fresh air and very active.
My siblings and their families all live out west in beautiful places such as, CA, ID, WA, MT, CO, and AZ. However, my grown sons are here! I have two lovely granddaughters, we're all still active in the outdoors, and life keeps on blessing us!
Travel, ski, hike, walk (more than few Caminos under my feet), read, cook & be with my family!

We wholeheartedly recommend Mitzi for any couple seeking a truly meaningful wedding ceremony! She is an exceptional officiant who goes above and beyond to create a personal and int...
imate experience.
What sets her apart is how she takes the time to genuinely get to know you as a couple. Through thoughtful conversations, she learns your story, your values, and what your love means to you - and this understanding shines through beautifully in the ceremony she creates.
Our ceremony felt so personal and heartfelt because she crafted words that truly captured the essence of our relationship. She created an atmosphere that was both sacred and joyful, allowing us to be fully present as we exchanged vows. Our guests were moved by how perfectly she expressed who we are together.
The words she shared about love, commitment, and our journey together will stay with us forever. She made our ceremony so much more than a formality - she helped us begin our marriage with intention and the most beautiful foundation.
If you want an officiant who will create a ceremony that reflects your unique love story and leaves a lasting impact, she is absolutely perfect.

Mitzi is an amazing officiant! She is warm, professional, and was truly invested in getting to know us as a couple. She took the time to understand our love story and what mattered...
most to us for the ceremony, and it showed in every detail.
Mitzi was organized and incredibly helpful during the rehearsal, making sure everyone felt comfortable and knew what to expect. On the day of the wedding, she led the ceremony beautifully. She had a calm presence and made sure the focus was on the two of us the whole time. She incorporated everything we wanted into the ceremony seamlessly. We felt so supported throughout the entire process, and we’re so grateful to have had her as part of such a meaningful moment in our lives!
We highly recommend Mitzi to anyone looking for an officiant who truly cares and will make your ceremony unforgettable!!

, professionalism, and genuine care for our special day were evident in every detail. She crafted a ceremony that was heartfelt, personal, and truly reflected our love story. She also rolled with the punches when my small child joined us at the front way before her planned time. We are so grateful for her role in making our elopement so memorable. If you're looking for someone who will make your wedding day (big or small) truly special, we wholeheartedly recommend her!

Highly recommend hiring Mitzi for your wedding! She is truly amazing. She took the time to get to know my now-husband and I upon hiring. As the wedding approached she took the time...
again to go over details and tell us everything we needed to know. She arrived for the rehearsal early and gave us some great recommendations and helped smooth out the process. We truly could not of had our wedding run so smoothly with out her.

I am so grateful that Mitzi married us amidst the beautiful fall foliage of Vermont last month. From the first time I spoke to her on the phone, I knew that she was the perfect off...
iciant for us. She spent a hour talking to my now husband and I, getting to know us and then on a later date another hour planning our ceremony with us. In the world today, that time and attention is rare and shows that she truly cares about getting to know you to provide you with the ceremony of your dreams. There is no pressure to be anyone other than yourself with her. The day of our wedding was the first time I met her in person and she continued to be caring, calm, enthusiastic, and genuinely engaged in the event. She obviously loves what she does. She makes the legal paperwork side of the marriage a breeze as well. You'll be glad you hired her. Thank you Mitzi, we will never forget you!

I am so incredibly grateful that we found Mitzi! She was the perfect officiant for our wedding day. I’m Jewish but more culturally not religious, and my husband’s parents grew up ...
Catholic but he wasn’t raised with religion, so it didn’t feel right to have either a rabbi or priest marry us. We also didn’t want a friend to get an internet ordainment. Mitzi brought the perfect balance of gravitas and elegance to our ceremony. With her guidance and helpful collection of excerpts (magic packet!) we built a beautiful and meaningful ceremony script. Mitzi guided us through the rehearsal and it was truly so helpful. You think walking in and out takes five minutes and it’s no big deal but believe me you want to rehearse!! Mitzi carries a natural sense of authority that we really needed to corral everyone. At both the rehearsal and the day of the ceremony I was so comfortable knowing that she was in charge, keeping everyone calm and keeping things on track. We had put so much energy into planning a perfect reception and a few weeks before the wedding that we were worried that we hadn’t given much thought to our ceremony, but with Mitzi’s help it all came together in such a beautiful way. She will take care of everything and ensure that you have a meaningful and memorable experience. She also really cares about the aesthetics and details, which I very much appreciate!! I can’t say enough great things about Mitzi and I’m only sad that I don’t get to hang out with her again!

She provided a wonderful packet so we could really make the ceremony our own. Was extremely helpful and calming during rehearsals. We had the most beautiful day.
We can’t thank her enough for everything!
