About this vendor
Your wedding vows are the reason for all the hoopla, excitement and preparation. They should be among the high points of your wedding day for they tell the world you are not two people, but now one. Performing a wedding requires presence, reverence and experience. You do not casually read words; you must stir up emotions among the couple and those in attendance. It becomes a joyous communal affair between those being united and the guests; all must be in accord and celebrate the miracle of love they are witness to.
The weddings I perform require a lot of writing and effort on my part but it is well worth it. Because every couple is unique, so is each of my wedding ceremonies. I include the guests with my sand ceremony because they were invited to be participants, not just to dine and dance. When family members compliment me after an event, I am humbled but feel my job was well done. The New York Times, who never mentions officiants, quoted me each time they covered a wedding I performed. But, even after thirty years as a photographer or officiant, knowing I have provided a precious memory for the rest someone’s life is a thrill I never get over. Let me do that for you.

We wanted to find an officiant that didn’t seem like the ceremony was off of a general script. When we met Paula for the first time, we knew she was the one. Her character and energy was on par with ours and we’re thrilled that we chose her for our wedding. We didn’t want our guests to start falling asleep during the ceremony, and she most certainly kept them entertained from our entrance all the way to our exit. She is beyond amazing and is now family. It’s a week after our wedding and people are still raving about her. Reach out to her now!!!
Paula is so great, she is straight forward and goes above and beyond to give you exactly what you want in your ceremony. My husband and I aren't very religious so our ceremony was on premises at our venue location. She has a way of taking your personal relationship story and general knowledge about the couple and just turns it into such a beautiful personalized ceremony!! If you get the chance she is a wonderful officiant!!
Where do we begin? I knew from the 1st moment that I met Paula at a Bridal Expo that she was meant to marry Rob and I. Ironically enough, at that time we weren't even engaged yet, but she knew to approach me and asked me when I was getting married. I had bumped into her again at another Bridal Expo show on a very cold, icy & wet winter day a year later after the engagement finally did take place and I said to myself, "Yep she's the one who is going to marry us".
Once I spoke to Rob about her, he insisted that he meet her as well. One night we met up at a diner and discussed how we met, why we are meant to be with another and why we should get married.
Rob fell in love with Paula and her personality such as I did and the rest is history.
Everyone who came to our wedding totally enjoyed the ceremony and Paula and asked where did you find this fantastic woman to marry you? I said FATE found us such as FATE found Rob & I.
We totally recommend this fantastic woman to marry you. She does such a phenomenal job with putting your story together and with such charisma!
We love you Paula!! Thank you again for making our day even more memorable!
