We are so thankful to have had Rev. Anita Gordon officiate our wedding. She is so easy to connect with and after our first meeting we felt confident she was the perfect choice for us. She has some beautiful ceremony templates to choose from and edit, and we couldn't be happier about how everything turned out during the ceremony. She made our wedding ceremony fun and so memorable. Anita was so amazing at providing wedding advice, and even connected us with one of our vendors when we were having trouble finding exactly what we were looking for. We would 1000% recommend reaching out to her if you are looking for a wedding officiant!
Anita was PERFECT. She was so easy to work with, she was incredibly professional and confident in her organization and ceremony delivery. She easily organized and delivered a very meaningful ceremony. We had tons of guests comment on how great she was, how beautiful the ceremony was, and how professional and kind she was. Personally, she is fun and easy going to work with, and professionally, she is very organized, very clear in her communication, and gave us the peace of mind that she had everything handled. I cannot recommend her enough - she is a FANTASTIC person and wedding officiant!
Within the first couple minutes of chatting with anita over the phone, I knew she was the perfect fit for my husband and I! She’s the perfect combination of sentimental and funny, she’s super personable and down to earth and she made the planning part of the ceremony sooooo easy! Its easy to get so wrapped up in planning the reception, that the ceremony planning goes on the back burner. Anita made the process so seamless and we were able to customize it exactly how we wanted it. I got so many compliments on Anita from my guests. She’s the best!!!
Anita was so amazing from the first phone call we had with her to the wedding day! She included our pup, Leo, in the ceremony in so many ways and made us feel loved and supported during our wedding day! She had 4 different ceremony outlines you could pick from or piece together to make it your own. Everyone, including us had amazing things to say about Anita on the wedding day! She is very professional and sentimental!
I hired Anita in August for my December wedding. My husband is an attorney and adamant about contracts and when I asked Anita for one she said "In 21 years, I have never worked with a contract. I either show up, or I don't, and I've never not shown up." I liked her and I believed her so I didn't write our own. Well wouldn't you know, LESS THAN 2 WEEKS before my wedding Anita emails me backing out and providing a vague explanation that something came up, but "don't worry" her funny husband is available to officiate our wedding. I don't want a funny person doing my ceremony, especially someone that doesn't know us or our guests. That humor generally doesn't go over well. Anyways, Anita DID REFUND our deposit which I appreciate. The final blow for me was seeing on Instagram that she officiated A DIFFERENT WEDDING ON THE DAY SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO OFFICIATE MINE. I guess she liked the other bride better or was offered more money.
I will add that when I booked Anita she did send a really awesome ceremony worksheet. We were able to easily build piece-by-piece our ceremony to read exactly the way we wanted it. I absolutely loved this and we gave what we wrote to the new officiant and we got a ton of compliments on it.
All that being said - GET A CONTRACT :)
We knew immediately after chatting with Anita that she was the perfect choice for our wedding day. She is so kind and provides such a comforting energy to an otherwise nerve wracking event. She made it so easy to compose a ceremony that felt personal to us and reflected our relationship. All of our guests gushed about how incredible she was and how absolutely beautiful and unique the ceremony was. The ceremony turned out to be my absolute favorite part about our entire wedding day. I just wish we had filmed it!
Anita was wonderful to work with. She made the day so easy and effortless. We loved that she allowed us to customize our ceremony and vows, making the ceremony as quick and easy as we wanted it. Additionally, her natural humor made the ceremony that much more enjoyable and special.
We loved Anita! She was the perfect fit to our ceremony. She made choosing the right ceremony easy for us, she has a great personality super fun! Very prompt, We would definitely recommend her!
Rev. Anita Gordon was so amazing!! She had the perfect balance of outgoing personality and professional leadership. She made the whole ceremony and my day flawless. My family absolutely adored her. She was super easy to work with. I only plan on getting married once, but I would recommend her without a moments hesitation. In one word, Rev. Anita was flawless!!
We loved having Anita as our wedding officiant. She was so professional and helped us throughout the planning process. She helped give us recommendations for other vendors that we were still looking for. You can tell that she knows what she is doing and will help make the event smooth and easy. She was quick to get back to us when we had questions. We met with her to go over the different wedding styles she has to offer and we were able to mix and match to find the right one for us. You will definitely have a unique wedding ceremony because she has so many options. During our ceremony it started to rain and she helped direct everyone to take cover until the rain passed and then we went back out and continued. I would highly recommend Anita to be your officiant for your wedding. You won't regret it.
Anita is amazing! Our ceremony was flawless as she made us feel comfortable and at ease every step of the way. Response time is quick and she is very professional and fun at the same time! I highly recommend Anita for your wedding day!
Anita was wonderful to work with!
Anita was friendly, witty, and very professional. She helped us narrow down some options, gave her recommendations, and had out ceremony prepped and ready to go a week before the big day. Needing something affordable was a large priority, she even took the time to meet us personally to explain here process and let us do our thing with reminders closer to our big day. Thank you again Anita, our day was beautiful and our ceremony was everything I thought it would be and more!
Anita was so amazing to work with! Picking out a wedding ceremony and officiator seemed very burdensome to me until I met Anita. She is so experienced and gave so much help in making the ceremony really fit your personal needs. She's also just an awesome person and I felt like I had a friend marrying me instead of a stranger. We love Anita!
I eloped in Moab, UT and started looking for great officiants, and BOOM, landed on Rev. Anita. My God, am I glad I did. I can't image our ceremony (and my mental state during said elopement) without her.
From our first conversation about booking and planning, to our last about the ceremony itself, I relished her warmth and calm disposition. She is the type of person that makes you sit back and think about what a good person she is (even after just talking on the phone!). Rev. Anita helped us create a ceremony that was truly unique and our own. She was so open to input and feedback and wrote in the things we really wanted (including a prayer from each of our families and two passages we really liked). She never pressured me or hurried me along.
Rev. Anita drove 4 hours to officiate and my husband and I had planned on a time to meet for our ceremony. We got lost (of course) and ended up on a 2 hour detour. Anita remained so calm and composed and helped me relax when we finally made it to our location. What kind of person does that?! She had literally just driven a zillion miles and even after I delayed her trip home, she kept loving on me and making me feel wonderful.
She is such a special person and will really make an imprint on your heart. Trust me when I say that her services are worth every single penny, and so much more.
Rev. Anita- we love you and are so thankful to have met you. You are truly an wonderful, warm spirit and helped make our day so much more than we ever dreamed!
So this review isn't for Anita herself, but her awesome husband Craig. When looking for our officiant we were inquiring with Anita to see if she would be available. She was not, but Craig was. Upon meeting Craig we were immediately put at ease. He was funny, personal and great to talk with. With my husband and I coming from different religious beliefs we were concerned that we would have something that didn't reflect both of our views and beliefs. Craig was able to help us build and create the perfect ceremony for our big day. It was personal and touching. Between Anita and Craig you can't go wrong, they are a winning team.
Anita was just awesome! She is professional, witty, elegant, and fun. We feel so lucky to have her officiate our wedding at Red Butte Garden. Working with her is super easy. During the meeting she provided us with different versions of the readings (religious or non-religious), and even divided it up for each section, so you can literally a la carte your own readings if you would like. On the wedding day she made sure everything went well. We felt she always has our back. Thank you Anita!
I think my husband described Rev. Anita’s genuine character best when he said that talking with Rev. Anita felt like you were just catching up with an old friend, even though we just met. There is something about her that makes you know and feel, she is a very special person. She is incredibly personable yet a complete professional and an expert at her art. We are beyond elated with the entire experience from beginning to end with Rev. Anita as our wedding officiant. She writes amazingly beautiful ceremonies and picked out certain things when we met with her and told her our story that made the ceremony totally personal to us and our families. She also understood our love for our pup and our want to have him every bit part of the ceremony that we were and she made that happen! We wanted a non-religious ceremony focused around friendship and she absolutely delivered exactly what we wanted...but even better than we could have imagined. She also made sure we knew she was there for us during the whole process, including wedding day which was so comforting. She even jumped in and helped pin boutonnieres on everyone and made sure the timeline stayed on-track as much as possible! Throughout the ceremony, she discreetly made sure to give my husband and I queues to remember what we should be doing since everything we discussed before the ceremony just went blank in the moment and she also was able to read the audience and do some impromptu things that made it very personable and were so funny, fitting to what was going on and whitty! We just cannot thank and give Rev. Anita enough kudos for the beautiful and fantastic job she did. She is absolutely amazing and we would not change a single thing. We would recommend Rev. Anita to everyone! She makes us want to get married over and over again which, if/when we renew our vows...we know EXACTLY who we are going to ask! She is an absolutely wonderful officiant, a genuinely kind human being and we are so lucky to have been able to meet her.
We absolutely LOVED Anita. We are not religious and have a blended family and she was great at working with us to create a special ceremony. She was able to bring both humor and touching sentiment to the ceremony. She was a breeze to work with as well. I'm very type A and organized and I fully trusted Anita to be on top of everything so I could relax the day of the wedding. She is simply the best.
We don't think we would have made it through the day without Anita. When she showed up to the first meeting with a package of ceremony options with our names and date on the front, I was sold. But her help, demeanor, and advice along the way put her above and beyond anyone else! The Clerk's office screwed up our documents, and she even fixed that for us! She calmed my groom and dad down a bit before the ceremony. Love everything about Anita!
I knew Anita would be our pick when she showed up to the first meeting and handed us a folder with our names and wedding date printed on a sticker on the front AND full of all the ceremony options. She was very easy to work with, allowing us to pick a pre-made ceremony or pick and choose parts to make ours special (which is what we did). She even caught the Clerk's Office issue on our wedding certificate and fixed it without needing anything from us. Thanks, Anita!
Anita has a way with her; she is very warm and professional at the same time. I felt like I've known her for years, though we only met once to discuss the wedding, e-mailed a few times, and then the wedding day.
She has several options prepared for you in a folder, and you can mix and match items from ceremonies if you don't feel like they fit you.
Our nonreligious ceremony went beautifully, and we got a lot of compliments from family and friends about how beautiful the ceremony was.
Anita not only allowed us to customize every part of our ceremony, she also found a way to include my mother who had recently passed on into the ceremony. I could not have been happier with her services
Anita is wonderful to work with. She is willing to do whatever you'd like. She is reasonably priced and very professional. We've received so many compliments on our ceremony from our guests.
Anita was simply wonderful! She made what can be a stressful experience (writing vows and planning a ceremony), such a joy and totally stress free. She incorporated every one of our ideas into a truly beautiful day! Our friends and family continue to comment on the uniqueness and beauty of the ceremony and how impressive Anita is! We could not have been married without her and consider her to be a friend, as well. Thank you so much Anita, our marriage started off on the perfect foot because of all your care and work!
She was witty, charming, and so much fun! Personalized ceremony and all!
Anita was a dream, she was the perfect fit for us and had a great way of making everyone comfortable. The way we could make our ceremony really be about us and not the straight across one way ceremony was perfect. She is wonderful to work with, so open and friendly =)
Reverend Anita was such a pleasure to work with and she provided such a beautiful ceremony. She does all of the work for you, making it worry free. By the time we came back from our honeymoon, we had our marriage license! Such a classy woman.
