From the first call, to the first in person interaction. Wendy was so bright and lively to talk to, and plan with. She helped every step of the way. We all know with planning a wedding, I was so grateful to have her as not only my minister, but a helping hand.
Highly recommend!
We are so grateful to have had Wendy with Wendy Duncan Ministries as the officiant for our wedding. From the very beginning, Wendy was incredibly professional, organized, and reassuring. Despite our short notice—only about a month and a half before the wedding—Wendy was happy to accommodate our request and made the entire process feel seamless.
Wendy took the time to truly get to know us during a phone call about a month before the wedding and carefully walked us through every step needed to officially secure our union in marriage. All of our questions about the ceremony were answered clearly, and we felt completely at peace knowing this part of our wedding was in such capable hands.
The ceremony itself was absolutely beautiful and the perfect length. Wendy thoughtfully catered to our preferences, and the result felt personal, meaningful, and heartfelt. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
Thank you, Wendy, for being such an important part of our special day!
