Wonderful!

Irene was absolutely amazing and our ceremony was perfect! She helped us out beforehand making sure we knew what to do and was extremely organized and on the ball which made everything run smoothly. Her ceremony was so beautiful and we could not have asked for a better officiant to marry us and be a part of our special day! Thank you so much Irene!

We highly recommend Irene she is amazing!!

We highly recommend Irene to be your marriage officiate for your special day. She is professional, reliable and courteous. Irene has a very nice personality and will put a smile on your face. She married my husband and I on August 12,2022. She also married our son 2yrs ago. Irene even made little certificates for our grandchildren who were our ring bearer and flower girl. That was so special for Irene to do for them. Irene does a phenomenal job!! I wouldn't look no further for your wedding needs. Choose Irene because she will make your wedding ceremony the best she can!! Thank-you Irene for making our wedding day so special.

Great experience!

Irene is a seasoned professional. She officiated my sister-in-laws wedding in 2019 and did such a wonderful job we hired her as well. She makes the whole process so easy and seamless. She was quick to hire, easy to communicate with up until the wedding and made our ceremony perfect.
We appreciate her professionalism and expertise regarding the most important part of the whole wedding! Thank you Irene!!

Wonderful, intimate, masked wedding at home

Irene was a wonderful officiant, flexible for our needs as Covid changed our plans and our number of guests. She came out to our home in the country and provided us with a certificate of marriage and a booklet of the ceremony as well. A lovely experience overall, and we're so grateful!

Wonderful Experience

Irene was very helpful, quick and accommodating to our needs when we needed a marriage officiant in less than a week. She was very friendly and easy to work with. We much appreciated how she got everything in place in a matter of days. The ceremony was very nice and quick and our day turned out perfectly. We would highly recommend Irene!
