Friendly, professional, fantastic!

Choosing a wedding officiant was one of many overwhelming wedding tasks, but we were in good hands with Cheryl. We were really pleased with how much effort she puts into making sure that the ceremony reflected us as a couple. She took the time to ask thoughtful questions to really get to know us before writing her portion of the ceremony, and she also gave us the opportunity to read it in advance and provide feedback. She is very articulate and her ceremony was well written and sincere and we loved everything she prepared for us.

She made us feel super comfortable throughout the entire process and her spirit and energy is uplifting and contagious. We could not have asked for a more wonderful officiant at our wedding and we are so happy we chose Cheryl for such an important role for our special day.

Warm, professional, passionate, perfect officiant!

We love Cheryl!!! Cheryl officiated our wedding on New Years this past year and we couldn't be more grateful for her warm, reassuring, graceful and kind energy on our wedding day! We had an interfaith ceremony with lots of moving parts, and it was important to us to find someone who would convey the right balance of professionalism and youthful, joyful energy, and work with us to incorporate my wife's religion in a western-style ceremony. She also helped us coordinate our vows at the very last minute, and even offered to go above and beyond and get us candles when we thought it'd be too much stress. We would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a professional, patient and charismatic officiant for their wedding. Yay Heart Strings! - Geoff

Thank you Cheryl

Cheryl did a splendid job in making our wedding ceremony an unforgettable experience. It was a small yet intimate event and I could not ask for more from the ceremony, to the pictures and flowers. It was perfect. Cheryl was very accommodating and has a warm aura that it feels like we have known each other for years. -j&j

Amazing beach elopement with handfasting

Cheryl and her family did an excellent job with our wedding ceremony. We wanted a private elopement, with a Celtic handfasting tradition. Not only did she help us do this, but she also scouted a beautiful spot on the beach in Tsawwassen. She provided us with help from her family in the form of witnesses and photographers. Everything was perfect- from prayers, to handfasting, to vows. Thank you Cheryl!

Perfect officiant for our simple and meaningful ceremony

Cheryl was the perfect officiant for our simple and meaningful ceremony.

Finding the right officiant was the hardest vendor for us to hire. They play such an important role on the day of the wedding and we didn’t want to feel uncomfortable with the person leading that moment. We needed someone who we felt matched our energy and who could capture the the moment in the way we wished. I don’t think words can describe how relieved we felt when we met Cheryl. She was kind, thoughtful and had a calming presence to her that we knew we wanted and needed for our wedding day. She guided us through writing a script that aligned with our wished to keep the ceremony short while conveying the emotions we wanted to share with our friends and family. She also joined us for a rehearsal the night prior which helped us feel more prepared for the following day. On the day-of, she arrived early at the ceremony and officiated beautifully.

We were so glad Cheryl officiated our wedding and could not recommend her enough.

Our Senior Moment Made Special by Cheryl

Cheryl, you made our private wedding a perfect memory for Karol and me. We are 2 seniors from Arizona and you took care of everything beautifully, even providing Frank and Yvonne as witnesses. We were married in the park across from Vancouver's train station in a drizzling rain before surprising our 12 friends arriving later on the train. We instantly felt we had known you for years, and you made our "senior moment" so very special. We will never forget you or the best day of both our lives! Thank you so very much Cheryl.

Thank you so much Cheryl❤️

So grateful to have met Cheryl. Everything was phenomenal on our day. She was instrumental in explaining us and our friends the whole event, because being Indians, we did not know much about the ceremony. She brought life to the ceremony with the choice of words. The day could not have been any better❤️. Thank you so much for being a part Cheryl, we will forever cherish these moments- Varshdeep and Manjinder

Thank you...Cheryl

Cheryl accommodated our needs beyond our expectation. She legalized our marriage with such a love and warm aura. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to do so. She made us feel so special regardless of how casual and small it was. She truly made the moment memorable.
