| - Angie is a wonderful person and we absolutely loved working with her for our wedding.
After getting in touch with her via email (well in advance from our wedding date), we set a meet up date, time and location.
It was our first time meeting with an officiant, but within minutes, we knew that we would not be looking any further. We sat and spoke with Angie about the logistics of the ceremony, who all was going to be involved, and the timeline of what would happen. Angie was very patient as we asked our questions and she eased us with the explanations. Then.. my favorite part, she asked us about our history and how we became: us. Needless to say, our meeting was lengthy as Angie took the time to write down EVERYTHING and ensured that she had US captured. You can tell that she loves what she does and she loves: love. We gushed about how couples usually get all mushy gooshy after this meeting as they have just told their love story.
We went home that night and rightfully secured Angie for that date by signing a contract and placing our deposit. Since we decided on a wine ceremony, we wanted her there for the rehearsal as well (thank goodness we chose to). She even gave us the great suggestion of using ribbon wands for the big hooray at the close of the ceremony.
Leading up to the rehearsal date, we were assigned "homework" where we had to answer questionnaires about each other and talk about why we love one another. When we received a copy of our ceremony draft, we were in awe as it was beautiful. It was personal, so beautiful, and moving.
On rehearsal day, we were so thankful we decided to do a ceremony rehearsal with her. We went over all of the choreography for the wedding day and how to rightfully do our union ceremony with the wine. We rehearsed 3x and she was very patient as she led us to success.
The day of, she came in early to say hello and while we had no idea how to bustle my wedding dress, she was able to figure it out for my MOH. She saved the day in more ways than one!
Our ceremony was beautiful with our story told by Angie and there was not a dry eye when we finished saying our vows.
Angie sent us many follow-up and reminder emails during the process and her work was not done after the ceremony. She kindly informed us that our marriage certificate had cleared and how to pick it up.
I adore Angie and I cannot say how thankful I am that we chose her to be right there with us on the most important day of our lives.
