"We had the absolute pleasure of working with Joana as our wedding celebrant for our symbolic ceremony in Portugal, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our guests were split between New York and Portugal, with one group speaking only English and the other having very limited English. It was incredibly important for us to find someone fully fluent in both English and Portuguese, and Joana handled this seamlessly. She made everyone feel included and connected throughout the entire ceremony, which meant so much to us. Joana crafted a ceremony that was beautifully personal and perfectly balanced. It was meaningful and heartfelt, while also lighthearted and full of moments that had everyone laughing, which was exactly what we had hoped for. Her delivery was exceptional; she has a natural cadence and warmth to her voice that made the ceremony feel even more special and engaging. So many people came up to us talking about how beautiful the ceremony was and how awesome Joana was. We’re so grateful for the care, thoughtfulness, and professionalism she brought to our day. We would wholeheartedly recommend Joana to any couple looking for a bilingual or English or Portuguese celebrant who can create a truly memorable and inclusive ceremony."

" We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Tonigar. He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely personable, which made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. He took the time to truly get to know us on a level that felt more like we were friends than clients, and that personal connection made all the difference. He helped us personalize our ceremony so it perfectly reflected who we are as a couple. He was kind, attentive, and always responsive, answering our questions promptly and guiding us through every step of the process. The ceremony was meaningful, heartfelt, and beautifully delivered. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, professional, and caring ceremony experience."

Dear Veronica and Zach, thank you so much for your beautiful words. Truly. You two were incredibly kind throughout all the months of preparation. Your trust, your warmth, the way you made me feel appreciated, and your simplicity and spontaneity helped me so much in connecting with you and in feeling like a real friend of yours, not just your celebrant. Celebrating your ceremony was a joy from beginning to end, and I’m grateful for the journey we shared. Thank you again, and I wish you both a wonderful life together. With affection, Toni

"We truly could not recommend Timothy enough as a celebrant - he played a huge role in making out day so special, and made us feel warmly supported from the moment we engaged well before the wedding, to even a few weeks after the wedding (when we bumped into him as we were sipping margeritas on the beach 🙂 ). If you're getting married on Ios - or another Greek Island even - you are probably like us; we didn't want a super formal, regimented vibe, we wanted a ceremony that felt personal and relaxed, yet still meaningful. Timothy conveyed exactly this - he managed to delier a ceremony that was reflective of our personalities, our relationship, and the love we have for eachother, and we honestly couldn't have imagined it any other way. Thank you Timothy - we will never forget your part in our special day ❤️ "

"Best officiant ever Dr. Kelsey Graham married my husband and me and it was the best experience we could have asked for. He is so kind and knows how to make a joke as well. He also made the legal marriage certificate a breeze by bringing our filled-out paperwork to the wedding and notarizing it for us. Our guests all LOVED him and thought we had known him for years because he was so personable. 1000000/10 would recommend using him over any other officiant."

" Fantastic We met Tony through the owner of the villa where we got married. Our first meeting was via video call, and even then we were deeply impressed by his professionalism. On our wedding day, September 4th, 2025, our feelings were fully confirmed—his professionalism and empathy truly stood out. Both we and all our guests were moved by his warmth and simplicity. Everyone complimented the beautiful work Tony did. To this day, we would recommend him a thousand times over to anyone looking for someone to celebrate the union of two people—because the way he does it truly touches your heart and makes you feel unique and special. Thank you so much, Tony, for your wonderful work, your heartfelt words, your passion, and the emotion you brought to our wedding day. Lorenzo & Antonella 💖 "

"Cerimonia emozionante e divertente Con Demetrio c’è stato subito feeling. Ha capito fin da subito che tipo di cerimonia volevamo, semplice ed emozionante e così è stato. Ha scritto un discorso molto bello su come fosse nata la nostra storia e vari aneddoti che hanno fatto commuovere, ma anche divertire, noi e i nostri invitati. Consiglio vivamente Demetrio perché è un grande ascoltatore, simpatico e professionale. Lo ringraziamo ancora per la cerimonia perché è stata esattamente tutto ciò che volevamo!"

"We couldn't have asked for a more perfect celebrant for our wedding in Crete than Elizabeth! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in good hands. She was absolutely fantastic and undoubtedly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding ceremony. Elizabeth carefully curated questions that delved deep into our journey as a couple, resulting in a ceremony that felt truly personalised and meaningful. Elizabeth made everything super easy for us, from choosing our vows to guiding us through our sand ceremony with grace and ease. Our guests couldn't stop raving about her, and we couldn't agree more. Without hesitation, we would recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a celebrant who goes above and beyond to make your special day unforgettable. Thank you, Elizabeth, for making our wedding ceremony an absolute dream!"

"Absolutely Incredible! We cannot recommend Susanne highly enough! From our very first meeting, she took the time to truly get to know us as a couple. Because of this, she was able to tailor the entire ceremony to our story, making it deeply personalized, incredibly entertaining, and beautifully emotional She is such a lovely woman and is completely trustworthy. We felt instantly relaxed knowing the ceremony was in her hands, which allowed us to just look forward to the moment without any stress. If you want a ceremony that feels uniquely "you" and an officiant who brings pure warmth and professionalism, look no further!"

"lucy higgins 3 months ago Kay was the celebrant at our wedding at the end of August and she really made the wedding. Almost every single guest commented on how personal and lovely the ceremony was.

"Demetrio è spettacolare! Cercavamo per il nostro matrimonio un celebrante che fosse sia simpatico, sia coinvolgente per gli invitati ma anche romantico nei momenti giusti Demetrio è stato tutto questo, siamo stati assolutamente fortunati ad averlo trovato ed è piaciuto a tutti, ci ha rappresentato completamente!! Ha fatto divertire con le battute e ha fatto emozionare nei momenti opportuni, persino gli altri fornitori ci hanno detto che è stata una cerimonia pazzesca! Grazie Demetrio, grazie di cuore da parte mia e di Luca perché sei stato eccezionale e hai esattamente fatto la cerimonia che speravamo di fare ❤️❤️ ti risveglieremmo altre 1000 volte"

"I wanted to share a heartfelt reflection on our recent ceremony in Sevilla, which was wonderfully personal and intimate. Our children played a special role, each taking the opportunity to say a few words, which added a beautiful touch to the event. Initially, we considered incorporating different languages into the ceremony, given our fondness for Spanish. However, we ultimately chose to use our native language to ensure our guests could fully appreciate our expressions of love for one another. The entire planning process was a breeze, thanks to Diana's invaluable suggestions and expertise. She provided a simple yet effective framework that allowed us to personalize our ceremony uniquely. One of the highlights was a Spanish tradition we adopted, where my husband's mum walked him down the aisle – something we weren't previously aware of but absolutely cherished. Diana's availability for face-to-face and virtual meetings made everything so convenient. Even eight months after the ceremony, our children, family, and friends continue to talk about how wonderful and memorable the service was. They often mention how intimate, personal, and romantic it felt, perfectly capturing who we are as a couple. One small regret we have is not having the ceremony videoed, which we highly recommend considering as a worthwhile investment. A standout moment for us was the time capsule, where we chose a red wine that surprised our guests as it was a unique element none had witnessed before. In five years, we look forward to opening the time capsule and reading our love letters to each other, which will undoubtedly bring back fond memories. In addition to this was the vow booklets Diana provided us to write our special word to each other Thank you for being a part of our special day and for your continued love and support."

"It has been a real gift to have Père Antoine officianting at our wedding at the Grand Hôtel des Sablettes on August 2025. Père Antoine helped us to combine the French and English cultures and everyone in the audience (from different countries and cultures) have appreciated the ceremony that we wanted to focused on spirituality. Père Antoine found the words to create the perfect atmosphere for us (based on the discussions we got in preparation of our wedding) and our guests. Thank you again Père Antoine for your kindness, availability and listening. We are really happy to have crossed your path and met you. All the best, Xavier and Jenna"

"Più che una professionista, una persona di famiglia! Emilia è una persona straordinaria, con un'anima dolcissima e una incredibile capacità di comprendere le persone che le stanno davanti. Con pochi incontri e dalle letture che sposi e testimoni le hanno inviato, è stata in grado di scrivere un discorso e delineare la nostra relazione in un modo così accurato da permettere agli invitati di conoscerci come coppia. Ha assecondato le nostre richieste strampalato per un matrimonio a tema è non si è tirata indietro davanti a nulla. Tutti gli invitati ci hanno fatto i complimenti per la cerimonia, stupidi e emozionati per questa celebrazione. Se dovessi rifarlo, sceglierei ancora una volta Emilia. Grazie ❤️"
