Sonya, you were the perfect match for Peter and I. Everyone was talking about how special the ceremony was and how the following phrase really resonated with them, “ Marriage isn’t...
about perfection—it’s about presence. And these two show up fully, joyfully, and authentically.” I appreciate you taking the time to get to know Peter and me as a couple and structure the most meaningful ceremony for our special day. Thank you for the military discount and for your son’s service. I’m so glad he’s home safe.
Any questions?

Thank you again Sonya!

It was an absolute pleasure to have Sonya as our officiant. From the start, she took the time to get to know us, learn our story, and understand exactly what we envisioned for our ...
ceremony. Throughout her writing process she was responsive, thoughtful, and tailored every detail to make it uniquely ours.
When a sudden thunderstorm rolled in right at our ceremony time, Sonya was calm, flexible, and accommodating, which made what could have been a stressful situation completely worry-free. She delivered a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony that we loved and our guests did too.
If you’re looking for an officiant who brings genuine warmth and care to such a meaningful occasion, we wholeheartedly recommend Sonya.

r, she was quick to get back to me and immediately scheduled a phone call to get to know me, my fiance, figure out what kind of ceremony we were looking for, and answered all my questions with ease. I only gave her less than a month's notice of our elopement and she handled it like a professional. We communicated via a Google Doc in which she had already prepared a script of what readings for our ceremony based on our previous phone conversation. We would message back and forth with my suggestions and edits and she would make them accordingly. The day of our elopement, she was early, was well prepared, and got our marriage license quickly sent in and made the whole process super easy.
I could not recommend Sonya enough! Definitely reach out to her for any of your JP needs!
