Reverend Linda is amazing!! She was the perfect fit for us. She had such a good balance of traditional religious readings coupled with more peace & love energy as well. She was so helpful when it came to choosing our vows and providing feedback...
. I didn't even know it they day of, but she had injured her leg and had a boot on and she took it off just for our ceremony. She was so kind to us and left us a sweet note in our card box. Such a lovely woman and truly cares about all of her clients. Cannot recommend enough.
Rev. Linda officiated our wedding last October and we could not have asked for a better officiant! My family is from Mexico so it was important for us to have someone who could officiate the ceremony in both languages and most importantly, do i...
t seamlessly. Although not an easy task, Linda pulled it off. Not only that, she was at the venue early and made the time to get to know both of our families. Her light heartedness, positive energy and enthusiasm were so welcomed by both my husband and I before jumping into the ceremony. She was such a valuable addition to our wedding and we would work with her again in a heartbeat!
What an incredible pleasure it was to work with Rev. Linda at a recent wedding! She is an incredibly lovely person, and her ceremonies even lovelier! Communication with her was easy, clear, and prompt. She is extremely professional and as equal...
ly personable. The ceremony she performed was sweet, authentic, and truly captured the couple's heart and vision. Everyone was pleased - the guests were filled with laughter and tears of sentiment and joy. Highly Recommend!
Any questions?
We could not have asked for a better officiant than Rev. Linda McWhorter. We do not live in Austin but she set up multiple Zoom meetings to walk us through the process, really get to know us, and made us feel so comfortable. We customized our...
vows with her help and ended up with a ceremony that couldn’t have been more perfect for us. She helped our families and bridal party practice and feel ready during the rehearsal which really made things go smoothly for the day of! And she was absolutely spectacular at delivering the ceremony. Many of our guests came up and said it was one of the best ceremonies they had been to and that was all because of Linda. She is the best!
Rev. Linda McWhorter is absolutely amazing. She is very professional, weaves your story into the ceremony beautifully. One of the big reasons that we went with Linda is because my husband’s family is bilingual and Linda did an amazing job creat...
ing a beautiful ceremony in both English and in Spanish.
Rev. Linda is a one of a kind. She is an incredibly talented human being. She met with my husband and I at a coffee shop. Little did I know that I would be tearing up that day. She asked us some very important questions (that I won't spoil) th...
at made that day so special. She is very easy to work with and she is a very good listener. She created such a beautiful wedding ceremony for my husband and I. Her words are kind and real. There was a moment during the ceremony in which she paused to take in all the love. Everyone in the chapel could feel that love. I'm so happy that I got to have such a beautiful ceremony.
I t has been over a year and a half and guests are still complimenting us on the ceremony and Linda's speech and vows. We are not religious but we wanted a ceremony that felt spiritual and that made everyone there feel included in our love and ...
she NAILED it. It was just so beautiful and she was so easy to work with. I absolutely recommend her to any couple-to-be
Linda is truly an amazing officiant. One of my main criteria when looking for an officiant was to find someone who was bilingual. I couldn't have picked someone better for the job. It was such a stressful year to plan a wedding and she truly m...
ade things smooth for us. She gave us access to her e-book which was really helpful in planning our ceremony. Linda is very professional, friendly, and caring. She was quick to respond when I reached out to her. Any questions we had she was there to answer them. We have had multiple family members to tell us how beautiful our ceremony was. Thank you Linda for making our day so special!
Linda is truly a gift. During such a stressful year, she made me feel strong and supported. Out of all the officiants I considered, Linda shone above all the rest as this incredibly radiant, positive, and loving human. Rather than a business tr...
ansaction or a simple exchange, we developed a strong bond of patience, kindness, and respect. Linda worked seamlessly with our other vendors and all our unique asks and needs. Thank you so, so much Linda!
Linda was beyond anything we could ask for in an officiant. She was immediately so comfortable and friendly with us when we first met her for coffee so she could get to know us. She was quick and efficient with writing our ceremony script and I...
loved that we could read it first and give feedback and edits. When the pandemic hit, she was flexible and supportive. Then, when we finally were able to hold the wedding, she was a calming and competent presence. We loved her, our wedding party loved her, the families loved her. I truly cannot say enough good things about her and highly recommend that any couple in the greater Austin area hire her for their wedding.
Linda was AMAZING!!! She made sure she had every detail in line for your special day. We felt very comfortable with her throughout the process and very much the day of our wedding. Did I mentioned she’s even bilingual!!! WOW!! We could not hav...
e been more grateful!!
Linda was a professional all the way yet she made it fun and super easy for us. We didn't give her much to go off of but she custom created an amazing ceremony for us! She took our lack of words and made it beautiful and still us to a T.
Linda was absolutely amazing. The ceremony she wrote was so beautiful and reflect both me and husband perfectly. She really took the time to get to know us and really personalize our ceremony to us and our family. She also checked in with us a ...
few times before hand to make sure the outline was still perfect and that we were taking care of ourselves. I can't say enough great things about Linda but she really made our ceremony special!
Me and Susie were married about 4 months ago and every time I look back and think about our ceremony it still warms my heart and fills me with so much happiness. Rev. Linda conveyed our story with so much emotions it touched all of our friends ...
and family- probably our vendors too. It was true and full of love. Some asked us if we've known Rev. Linda for a long time. They were amazed of how beautiful the wedding was and how they laughed and cried. We had multiple meetings with her. We're about 5 hours away from Austin so we had to do video calls but it was really easy. She's really friendly, easy to talk to, and respectful with the traditions that we'd want to incorporate. She gave us an e-book as a resource, which helped us tremendously. She helped us with our own vows too. She's timely, easy to reach, and professional. She's diverse- she was knowledgeable of our traditions and culture. I highly recommend Rev. Linda, if we'll renew our vow, we'll for sure choose her again.
I am so happy that we chose Reverend Linda to be the person to officially marry my husband and I. We live in Houston, but were planning to get married in Austin, so we looked online to find ideas for officiants. We came across Rev. Linda and ...
had a phone call with her to see if she would be a good fit. I knew immediately that she was the person we wanted to marry us. She has such a warm and loving demeanor, and I could just tell that she loves being a part of people’s most precious day. She really put in effort to get to know us as a couple and to understand what we were looking for in our wedding ceremony. She wrote an absolutely beautiful ceremony for us and was open to any and all feedback we had in how to tweak it to make it just right for us. We chose to write our own vows, but Rev. Linda offered to review them for us to make sure we were on the same page with tone, length, etc. The ceremony turned out absolutely perfect! It was a perfect mix of serious, funny, romantic, and emotional. Rev. Linda was awesome at controlling the flow of the ceremony and “ad libbing” when needed if anything unexpected popped up (like the lapel mic not working, and her quickly making eye contact with the DJ to switch to the handheld mic). She was truly a professional and was able to execute the ceremony without missing a beat. Throughout the night we had guests coming up to compliment us on how it was one of the most personal and beautiful wedding ceremonies they had ever been to. I am so happy that we chose Rev. Linda to be a part of our wedding day and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a beautiful and personalized wedding ceremony.
We had a great experience with Rev. Linda. She was very accommodating with how we wanted our ceremony, including the bilingual parts. She conducted and delivered with the warmth and sweetness of a true friend. Communication was great from the f...
irst meeting until the big day. We're very happy to have worked with her!
Linda is a great person and we definitely clicked with her right away thinking we found the perfect match. Her books had a lot of great ideas that helped me craft the ceremony into what I wanted. That being said as we moved closer to our weddin...
g day thing seemed to be slipping through the cracks like our names being incorrect on emails and invoices. She might have gotten upset that we brought this to her attention because the day of the wedding she seemed very annoyed and bossy. She definitely brought unnecessary stress to the day of the wedding that I didn’t need and I had to get a lot of editing done to our ceremony to take away side conversations like her loudly saying she’s going to adjust her mic and then fidgeting with the mic for 30 seconds. She couldn’t even let me enjoy my “I do” first I said “I do” and she told me to say it to my husband (I guess it seemed like I was speaking to her since she was asking the question then she stopped and tried to get me to say “yo acepto” because that’s what was originally in the script. Like with everyone watching me and all the stress I’m feeling you’re going to fixate on that and not let me have my moment. I didn’t stop you when you said “3 hijos (sons)” instead of “3 hilos (cords)“.
Ive hesitated writing this review because she’s a great person but I cringe watching my wedding video and remembering how she made me feel that day.
Response from the Vendor on 12/20/2019
Yvonne, I am heartbroken that you would write such a negative review. In 13 years of officiating weddings, I have never received less than a 5-star review. I pride myself in strong professionalism, always going above and beyond to make sure th...
e first part of the wedding day, the ceremony, is well done. It has been 9 months since your March 2019 wedding, and I still remember the day well. First, since you didn't hire an Event Coordinator, when I arrived an hour early to the venue, things were very chaotic with people bringing food and decorations trying to get everything done at the last minute, asking "what goes where", "where do i put this?" In fact, there was much left undone at ceremony start time, and I know there were people who could not enjoy the ceremony, because they were still decorating tables, etc. Also, since you didn't hire a Coordinator, and you chose not to have a Rehearsal, your wedding party was very disorganized and confused and didn't know what they were supposed to do. I was the one who pulled it all together, got everyone lined up, and tried to coordinate the Processional - even though as the Minister, I was the one to walk out first. I had to ask someone at the last minute to help the Wedding Party with their processional timings, so it would be beautiful for you. These tasks are not in my job description, nor in my contract with you, but if needed, I step up and do it, to make your day perfect. And, that's what I did. The side conversations on the video happen on all wedding videos, because the videographer always gets the Officiant (and often the Groom) mic'd up very early. So, of course, there will be lots of side conversation on the front end of the video before the ceremony begins - and your videographer should have cleaned that up before he presented it to you. Since there were those side conversations, I am sure you heard what I referred to earlier in this response - the extra work I had to do (that I was not paid for) to make sure the ceremony began smoothly, asking your guests to take their seat, getting your Wedding Party lined up and the rest. Tasks that an Event Coordinator is responsible for. And, finally regarding my Spanish - I am completely fluent in Spanish - I read, write and speak it fluently. I have lived in Mexico, I was married to a Mexican man for many years, I lived in San Diego and Los Angeles for many years, and I am not only bilingual, I am also bicultural. I have worked and lived in the Latinx community more than half my life. If you heard me say hijos instead of hilos, then that's what you heard. I would not get the two mixed up. I know the difference. I want to say again how very saddened I am that you are so disappointed with my services, when I felt that I gave 200% to try and bring some calm and order to the chaos that day. I also wish you had contacted me directly to air your grievance, rather than in a public space. Despite the hurtful tone of your review, I do wish you and Kyle many years of happiness together.
Rev. Linda is simply the best! So if you’re searching, you can relax and be at ease knowing you’ve found the greatest officiant for your special day! We are so happy we were able to book her as we highly doubt anyone else could have given us su...
ch a beautiful and customized ceremony. I’m Catholic and my husband is Christian. Rev Linda was the perfect fit for us. We really appreciate that Linda took the time to get to know us as a couple. She even makes it a point to text the couples the day of the wedding to calm any nerves, to pray before the ceremony if desired, and she even gave me a weather report. Furthermore, Linda will send off the marriage license for the couple! Shes a godsend!
She was everything we could of hoped for! Easy to communicate with, thoughtful, prompt, and professional. We had children involved in the ceremony and as you know they are a bit unpredictable but she just went with the flow and adapted. Without...
her our day wouldn’t of been as great as it was. I highly recommend her services!
People thought that Linda was a family friend or had known us for years, that is how tailored and amazing her ceremony was. She is an amazing speaker, and more importantly, a very kind soul that really takes the time to understand your own spec...
ial bond. It was such a gift to have her officiate our ceremony.
Rev. Linda did a fantastic job on our ceremony! I’m Canadian-American and my husband is Indian, so we decided to create a ceremony that reflected both our cultures. We weren’t sure where to start, all we knew is we wanted a ceremony that both s...
ides of our families + friends could identify with and enjoy. Rev. Linda has tons of experience doing multicultural weddings – she’d done many Indian weddings in the past, and as a result, she had great suggestions and was quickly able to help us identify which ceremonies/traditions we most wanted to incorporate. The result was a phenomenal, special ceremony that our guests couldn’t stop talking about. Her words were so heartfelt and even though we only met a couple months before the wedding, you’d think she’d known us both for years. She also provided a booklet beforehand that give us tons of ideas for vows, readings, songs, etc, and then after the wedding, she sent a handy guide with instructions for changing my name, should I wish to do so. Can’t sing enough praises for Rev. Linda and would not hesitate to recommend her as an officiant for ANY type of ceremony.

Linda was AMAZING! Everyone absolutely loved the ceremony. Everything went smoothly and perfect. Her guidance and direction meant so much to my husband and I. She went above and beyond to make the ceremony and rehearsal personal and meaningful....
Highly recommend booking Linda for your wedding!
Linda is such a warm and sweet person. We were having an elopement wedding and she did not need to meet with us, but she did. We met with her over coffee one Saturday morning, and after 1.5 hours we left feeling like having met with a long lost...
family member. She listened to our love story, asked us questions about ourselves and our feelings for one another. She carefully took notes.
After a few days, she sent us the beautiful ceremony outline which was so heartfelt and tailored around our love story and our relationship. She incorporated our ideas and inputs to it.
One the day of the wedding, she was just like a member of the family. The ceremony was beautiful, all the women, including me were crying. She stayed back and celebrated with us over cake and champagne. She was one of the last people to leave. She hugged us and wished us well for our life together. You can easily observe that she genuinely cares about true love and the couple she is marrying.
100% recommended.
Linda sat with us to hear what kind of ceremony we had in mind and offered very helpful suggestions. She also provided an e-book that help us a lot with ideas.
She also gave us the full ceremony transcript beforehand so we c...
ould review it, adapt it and get it just as we wanted.
At the end we came up with our own very customized bilingual ceremony and she just execute it perfectly. I honestly couldn't think of how we could've had this without her.
Thank you very much Rev Linda for making this very special day a success
It was a true pleasure having Linda officiate our wedding. She is very warm and comforting, which is great energy on your big day! Linda first met with us in a coffee shop and got to know our story, how we met, and the type of wedding we envisi...
oned. She really made us comfortable with the entire process and customized the entire ceremony to our specific tastes. She has done over 1,200 weddings and her experience really shows! I am so glad we went with Linda, consider yourself very very lucky if you can manage to book her. I received numerous compliments on how great the ceremony was and can't recommend Linda enough!
Linda was truly a blessing on our wedding day! From the first time we met her, she took the time to get to know us on a deep personal level. We didn't feel rushed at all during our initial meeting and she took DILIGENT notes while my husband a...
nd I talked and talked and talked about our love story. The ceremony she created from our meeting was beautiful and we didn't make any changes to the draft she sent to us a few weeks before the wedding for our review. My husband and I were so happy with our decision to use Linda and hope to stay in touch with her for years to come. We had tons of compliments about how beautiful our ceremony was, and we owe that to Linda! Thank you so much! With Love,
Sarah and Kevin
Linda was amazing to work with. When we sat down ahead of the wedding to talk about the ceremony, she really took the time to get to know us. From our conversations she crafted the most beautiful and personal narrative for our ceremony, and let...
us review it in case we wanted to tweak anything (we made almost no changes, it was great). The day of the wedding she let us know she was praying for us as it really looked like rain, and that help calm our nerves about the situation (and it didn't rain at all, yay!) Her delivery of the narrative was perfect. We can't recommend Linda enough! Thank you for making our wedding day special!
Rev. Linda was a joy to work with! We came upon her after searching for a bilingual (Spanish and English) minister. When my husband and I met with her, we got nothing but good vibes and a sense of familiarity, comfort and support! She drafte...
d the most beautiful ceremony and incorporated every element that we wanted. We wanted to do a handfasting ceremony and she offered to make the cords for us (which ended up being so meaningful and beautiful!) The day of our wedding, she performed the lovely ceremony and flawlessly transitioned from English to Spanish throughout the ceremony. Our family and friends were so impressed and touched by the lovely ceremony. Definitely recommend Rev. Linda for a wonderful and personalized experience!
We loved Rev. Linda McWhorter -- she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She made me feel comfortable the moment I met her. My husband and I are non-religious so she was able to put together a beautiful secular ceremony for us that still had...
so much heart and soul. When we met her, she asked us a lot of questions and both of us felt super comfortable with her right away. The ceremony she wrote was beautiful. We loved it, and so did all of our guests. Our ceremony was at Chapel Dulcinea and she calmed any fears I had from having so much experience. She brought a nice bluetooth speaker to play music over the chapel and helped us arrange that so neither of us had to worry. I would highly recommend Rev. Linda! She's amazin!
Linda was exceptional as our officiant for our small wedding. She was super responsive and answered my silly questions. She is super organized and allows you to out together your perfect wedding ceremony narrative. Definitely recommend her as a...

Many years of love and happiness be yours! Rev. Linda

Linda is excellent and any couple would be lucky to have her conduct their ceremony! When we first met with Linda, my now-husband and I told her all about how we met, what we loved about each other, and the ceremony we were envisioning. She mad...
e some great suggestions and helped us figure out how to include everything we wanted in our ceremony, as well as how to balance my husband's Southern Baptist family with our more secular preferences.
Linda provided a reference for some possible readings to include, and some options of vows we could use. Though we decided to write our own vows, we were able to choose some ring-exchange vows to include as well. Throughout working with us, Linda provided several drafts of our ceremony, and made all of the (nitpicky) changes we requested. She included a couple readings we had found, and in the final draft even snuck in a quote from Winnie the Pooh (which I had mentioned wanting to include, but never chose a specific one). That little touch made me realize that Linda had really listened to us and wanted to create a beautiful and personal ceremony for us.
Finally, on our wedding day, Linda went above and beyond! Realizing that I had never specified what we wanted her to wear, she provided multiple options for me to be able to choose (though her assumption was already spot on). Shortly before the ceremony, Linda caught up with our ceremony musicians, to make sure they knew their cues and there were no mishaps. She also, thankfully, came prepared with copious tissues for all of my crying throughout the ceremony. Thank you for being so thoughtful, Linda!
All of our guests raved throughout the reception about how lovely our ceremony had been, and that t really moved them. I am so glad we chose to go with Rev. Linda McWhorter to officiate our wedding, because I know anyone else just would not have quite gotten it right.
Response from the Vendor on 05/22/2018
Sweet Anna! Thank you so much for the wonderful review! Your wedding was symbolic of the love you and Caleb share every day! Filled with love and good wishes of your most beloved family and friends (myself included!) I will hold the memory in m...
y heart always!
Rev. Linda is absolutely lovely in every single way, and made our quaint little wedding pure perfection. She is articulate, loving, kind, compassionate, and was the perfect jewel to tie everything together on our special day. The work she put ...
into the ceremony before the wedding was profound, and it truly made us feel special. One of our biggest request was to incorporate our children (ages 10, 10, 15, 18) into the ceremony, and she had amazing heartfelt ideas. Our day was perfect because she is so wonderful, and we highly recommend her. Rev. Linda is doing exactly what God has called her to do, as she truly is an angel!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Linda! From the first time we met her I knew she was the perfect person to officiate our wedding. We talked with her for a few hours, telling our story and listening to her own love story. She put toge...
ther the most beautiful wedding ceremony, and you honestly feel she is honored to be a part of your day. Her happiness for you is genuine. We had a slight hiccup in our ceremony ( a slight delay in finding the rings!!) but she kept everything lighthearted and flowing. I would highly recommend Linda if you are looking for an officiant for your wedding. You will not be disappointed!
We were so blessed to have Rev. Linda McWhorter officiate our wedding. Neither of us are originally from Austin and did not have close ties to a church, so we were in need of someone who could bring a sense of spirituality to our marriage, whi...
le maintaining a light-hearted sensibility. Linda could not have been a better fit. From our very first meeting, she really honed in on our personalities and was able to express the type of vibe we wanted for our ceremony. She was very professional and was able to guide us through the ceremony with ease. On day of the wedding, there was a delay in the arrival of guests, to which Linda was very accommodating. Throughout the entire process, she made us feel like we were in good hands. Even though we had only met a few times, it felt as though we were being wed by a family friend. We would highly recommend her to any couple in need of an officiant for their wedding.
Linda was the biggest blessing to our wedding. She was so wonderful, professional, and kind. We were having the hardest time with picking an officiant. We wanted some one who would understand our story and not just be some one talking at the al...
ter, but some one who could put our love in words. Linda was the perfect officiant for our wedding. After our first meeting with her we were just amazed at how well of a fit she was for us. Linda just had a wonderfully sweet way about her that made us feel like she knew us. The day of the wedding she was very professional and very very I stress VERY helpful. The service she performed brought me to tears! She put our story and our life into that ceremony. I wasn't just a generic ceremony any one could get off of google, it was ours and ours alone. Linda even involved our kids in the ceremony and it melted every ones hearts. If you want a personal ceremony done by some one who takes the time to get to know you Rev. Linda McWhorter is your officiant. Linda will forever be one of the best blessings to our wedding and we could thank her enough
After our wedding guests asked us over and over "Where did you find your Reverend". Let me say I feel truly blessed to have had such great vendors and Linda is apart of that. My husband is born and raised in Chicago and our wedding was followin...
g the World Series win. Did I mention that Rev. Linda is a Cubs fan? We told her that we wanted to incorporate the Cubs win into the ceremony and boy did she deliver!!! She even had a Cubs decal on her binder during the ceremony and everyone LOVED it. It was great. The ceremony she delivered overall was special and heartfelt and we will never forget this. She was absolutely AMAZING! Such a blessing to have met her and have her a part of a day we'll remember for the rest of our lives. Thank you Rev. Mcwhorter it was such a pleasure to have you on our wedding day. We will be forever grateful for the beautiful ceremony you provided us with.
Rev. Linda was WONDERFUL! She was absolutely wonderful! My friends and family talked about how great of a job she did and how much they enjoyed the ceremony. (someone even said she was the best they had ever heard). She made the ceremony one of...
the most memorable parts of the day- which is hard to do as the whole thing is practically a blurr. :) She worked with us beforehand to customize our ceremony and vows and provided a huge list of example readings and vows. I could not have asked for someone else- she did even better than I had wished. I would definitely recommend her!
Linda was such a joy to work with! She was dependable, attentive, and caring. We didn't have a wedding planner, but Linda kept us on point and made sure our ceremony was truly unforgettable! Thank you Linda!
Linda is phenomenal! The ceremony was absolutely perfect and moved some people to tears (but not in a sappy way!) Several people said it was one of the most beautiful and intimate ceremonies they have witnessed and Linda made that happen.

Linda talked to us both extensively to find out who we are -- to find out exactly what we wanted to say about our love -- and helped us figure out how to say it. She made our ceremony perfectly personal and suited to us. She made it feel just right.
Aside from the awesome ceremony, she brought out all the extras. She helped us stay on track with deadlines, with writing our vows, and even with getting our marriage license (she sent it back for us, which is one less hassle to do ourselves after the wedding!) She even created beautiful, personalized, hand-made little booklets for us to read our vows from. We now have those momentos to cherish for the rest of our lives.
I'd recommend Linda to anyone, hands down!
Linda made our ceremony truly unique and special! She took the time to get to know us and ensure our ceremony really reflected us and our love. She brought a wealth of wonderful ideas and words and helped us craft a beautiful ceremony. An added...
perk is that she is bilingual so we were able to have our ceremony in both Spanish & English! I highly recommend Rev. Linda if you are looking for a truly special ceremony!
Linda is fantastic. We met with her beforehand and she's very friendly and easy going. Throughout the process, she was very helpful and reminded us about deadlines and things we would need for the ceremony. The cost was affordable as well for s...
uch great service. So happy we chose Linda and she was a part of our big day!
Linda was so kind and patient as we put together our ceremony. We had some specific expectations about exactly how religious our ceremony would be, and she helped us put together a perfect ceremony that met our and our family's needs. We rece...
ived SO many compliments about the service! I highly recommend. She is flexible and open minded to all needs.
We had such an emotional, fun, personal ceremony and we owe it all to Reverend Linda! From the first time we met her we knew she would deliver a memorable ceremony for us as she was very personal, heart felt, and a great communicator. She liste...
ned to what was important to us and worked with us to guarantee all those things were incorporated into our ceremony. I don't think there was a dry eye amongst the guests and people have been commenting on how genuine & emotional the ceremony was. Thanks, Linda!
Linda is a wonderful, caring person and will make sure you have a lovely wedding ceremony. She worked with my fiancé and I on making sure our ceremony was tailored to our beliefs, but felt reverent. She is extremely professional and sends you a...
copy of the ceremony well before your wedding day. If you need to make any changes she immediately makes note of it and is extremely accommodating. The Irish blessing she had at the end of our ceremony was used in my cousin's wedding and he was so taken aback she knew of it. Little touches like that really help make for a special wedding.
Linda is so great. I live in Dallas so it was hard to get to Austin during her business hours but she was ALWAYS accommodating. She skyped with my husband and I so we could save a trip. Our vows were beautiful, my husband could hardly speak be ...
was so overwhelmed with emotion. Linda really takes the time to get to know you and knows just the right things to say.

I officiated my first wedding in 2006, and thus began my love affair with weddings! Why do I love weddings? Let me count the ways -
I delight in learning a couple's love story and creating a ceremony that expresses that love in every word. I enjoy meeting the families and the wedding party. Feeling the joy and love that the guests bring with them, experiencing the happiness of the occasion, and being part of the couple's wedding day memories makes my heart sing!
What can I say? I am thoroughly smitten with weddings!
