Courtney made our wedding day the best we could have hoped for. She was very active in the process leading up to the wedding taking mine and my fiancées asks into consideration. She tailored the script to exactly what we had imagined on the first try. She also helped at our rehearsal with guiding everyone in the wedding party to make the day of go as smooth as possible. Our wedding went exactly how we wanted it to and it is thanks to Courtney. We cannot recommend her enough.

Where do we start? A better question, is how the heck do you start looking for an officiant, how do you know when you've found "the one"?? Let me save you energy and time and tell ...
you, look no further! Courtney is pure magic. You found your officiant. She radiates true joy and exudes passion in everything she does. Everyone at our wedding was in awe. Just like you, I did a Google search on officiants in Southern AZ. and got so lucky in finding and connecting with Courtney. I cannot begin to describe Courtney's professionalism and her sincere passion that shines through her work. When we first connected with Courtney we had a phone session to get to know about one another, and instantly we knew she was someone that needed to be part of our memorable day. She not only listened to our story, but made it extra special and suggested the most amazing touches to make our wedding extra personalized... and on top of that found the most beautiful ways to include our loved ones in the ceremony. I cannot recommend her enough!! Seriously, she made me feel like the most special person, ever. Thank you Courtney for being YOU, and for being a big part of making our special day perfect <3

Courtney was a dream to work with! We had put off selecting an officiant for quite some time out of concern that we would be disappointed with our options. I have to say, Courtney ...
did NOT disappoint. From our brief phone call she was able to gather relevant information about us and really understood what we were looking for (and not looking for) in our ceremony script. She made it short, sweet, and modern, just like we wanted. The reading she selected for us could not have been more perfect. She was even open to attire requests! The other vendors involved in my wedding even mentioned how her voice and demeanor was so soothing and her face was so kind.

rom the very start, she was so responsive, even setting up a zoom call while out of the country just so that she could learn more about us. She checked in often before our wedding and provided clear communications on when we could review the wedding script, etc. She allowed ample time for us to revise anything that we wanted. However, there was no need because Courtney captured everything beautifully. She must have some special intuition because the ceremony she planned was exactly what we had hoped for. Her reading made me cry the first time I read it because it reflected our relationship so well. During the ceremony, Courtney was so attentive, kind and authentically caring. She made our wedding so very special. Everyone who attended commented on how wonderful she was and how perfectly she tailored the ceremony to us. THANK YOU, COURTNEY. You are truly amazing!
