Working with Sheri was such a privilege. From the very start, she was super responsive, and she answered all of our questions. She went on vacation twice during our planning season...
, but she even answered our questions on here time away, which was incredible, and certainly unexpected. Sheri brought our love story to life for all of our family to hear. How we met, how the first date went, the engagement and everything leading up to the wedding. Sheri will always hold a very special place in our hearts because she made our ceremony absolutely perfect. If you want your wedding to feel intimate and close knit, Sheri is the person you want. You will not regret choosing her. She made our life so much easier.

Sheri Maines was the absolute perfect addition to our Wedding day! In addition to being a great officiant, she is one of the kindest, funniest, professional and most helpful people...
we could have asked for on our day.
Before officiating, she took the time to get to know us personally and tailored her part exquisitely. She takes feedback well and made sure that we got what we wanted. It was funny, loving, sweet and saturated in the moment. Everyone commented about how wonderful it was, even into the weeks after our wedding. It was fantastic how "us" it was and she made that possible. We cannot recommend Sheri enough.

Sherri was our officiant for our wedding on 10/11/25. From the very beginning Sherri was so warm and welcoming. She listened with curiosity to our ideas and even helped us form...
a better idea of what we were looking for in a customized ceremony. It was really important for us to include our dog in our ceremony and Sherri was not only understanding, but she was so excited to help us figure out ways to include him.
We were beyond impressed with her work and time that she put into crafting our love story to be shared on our wedding day. We filled out detailed questionnaires about our relationship from beginning to what lead us to marriage. She was able to take pieces from each of our questionnaires and create a story that we will cherish forever.
Not only is Sherri warm, welcoming, and creative but she is also very communicative with her clients. We were able to message Sherri whenever we had a thought pop into our heads and she would get back to us in a timely manner. She provided us with copies of the ceremony script so we could review and change things as needed. I couldn’t recommend her work more to anyone looking for a sentimental and truly unique ceremony.
Thank you so much Sherri for the amazing work you did to help us create a ceremony that was truly our own!

Sherri was wonderful! She listened carefully to what my daughter and her fiancée wanted to share on their wedding day. My daughter chose to have their love story shared at the cere...
mony. Sherri did not miss a thing. From how they met to when they got engaged, she had all of the guests engaged and included moments of sincerity and comedic relief. I couldn’t be happier with how the ceremony fell into place. I would highly recommend her to enhance your ceremony on such a special day.

Sheri went above and beyond every step of the way to help us craft and execute the most special, meaningful ceremony. Her warmth, attention to detail, and genuine care brought our ...
story to life. She was well-organized, professional, and thought of every little thing we hadn't even known to ask. We heard from several guests that this was the best wedding ceremony they had ever attended because of how genuine and beautifully Sheri conveyed our story. I cannot recommend Sheri more highly for your special day!
