    Amazing wedding celebrant

    Having Abegael as our celebrant for our unique wedding was perfect! She worked efficiently and was great at constant communication to ensure our happiness with all of the different traditions we wanted to include on our special day. She showed up early, has great voice projection (we were outside), and organized our large group of guests (around 90) into a circle formation. She truly made our wedding day special and meaningful, we couldn't be happier with our golden rose wedding package.

    Abegael helped Our Day be the best it could be!

    The prep-work felt was laid out so that come the wedding day we were confident, with multiple drafts and plenty of communication. Even when events outside officiant duty were hitting snags Abegael was able to roll with it. The prep work paid off!
    Our personal vows were carefully crafted with our input and took them from being good to being great! My wife and I loved this approach.
    The various rituals that were chosen with our input made even the most stoic of our family members proclaim "it was AMAZING!" I think I saw my step-dad shed his first tears in his life. The ceremony was enhanced by bells and other provided ritual materials, which were all provided by Abegael. I'm confident that if someone is reading this and considering the same officiant that they'd be surprised by the amount of options she'll bring to the table (but not overwhelmed!)
    The gifts Abegael provided were touching as well. So in addition to our guests leaving with memories that will help mark our day, so were our (my wife & I) own expectations.
    Our marriage certificate also arrived promptly on time.
    I realize as I'm typing all of this out I'm gushing, but it's all true! I would highly recommend WeddingWire.ca
    Reach out and meet with an officiant to find out if they'll meet (or exceed) your expectations!

    Andrew, Cara....it was a most auspicious ceremony! Even though the temperamental west coast weather gods played trickster...... we made a smooth transition into one of the most beautiful heritage venues in Vancouver.....the Teahouse in Stanley Park. That was such a good choice....a perfect setting for a truly unique, personalized and bespoke ceremony.....yours! We did it! And I especially loved meeting your Nova Scotian parents and seeing them so deeply moved.......being Nova Scotian myself, I know the stoic gesture so well....! (Ach, but we all have hearts of gold under those salty exteriors.....) Thank you for thanking me so profusely - I loved our working together, and wish you all the best as you dance together into married life, so in love.

    Best ceremony ever!

    Abegael was our wedding celebrant and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. From the start, we felt an authentic connection with her. She wrote our love story with such care and the unique rituals she suggested really made our ceremony stand out. In fact, many of our guests raved that it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and that it was their favourite part of the wedding. We would highly recommend Abegael to any couple seeking a memorable and personalized ceremony and are so glad we chose her to be with us on our wedding day!

    Beautiful and memorable custom ceremony

    The top compliment we heard was that our ceremony was so meaningful and unique! Creating this ceremony with Abegael's help truly brought us closer in the process and on the day! Abegael had so many of ideas for our ceremony and welcomed our vision. We wanted everyone to hear our love story so they understood what brought us up to that day! Most people in the room knew pieces of it but she crafted a beautiful and thorough recollection that shared both our sides of the story. We added several meaningful rituals like candles, ring warming, handfasting and the gift of flowers to our mothers. Everyone was given an antique bell to ring as we walked out which everyone really enjoyed! We even managed to include my younger sister who passed away 4 years ago in a way that made me laugh and cry at the same time! I truly felt her presence with us on this day. Thank you Abegael for bringing our ceremony together and making it truly memorable!

    Fabulous and Priceless

    Our Amazing magical journey with Abegael started on a beautiful sunny day in June of 2022. She was so warm and very receptive to what we had as the budding vision for our wedding ceremony and we were equally excited for her thoughts as well. I remember both of walking away feeling so grateful and truly felt like we had found a perfect person to honor our wedding in a sacred way.
    After touching base and going through a number of drafts we all co-created a ceremony rich with ritual and reverence which aligned with our many spiritual beliefs.
    Everything about our wedding ceremony was beautiful and grounding in the love that we affirmed and celebrated that stunning morning at the Teahouse in Stanley Park. It was so perfect in every way.
    All of our guests loved the ceremony so much. An many remarked how it was so singular and unique, even our waitstaff at the Teahouse shared that they had never witnessed a ceremony so different.
    My wife and I give so much thanks to Great Spirit for aligning us with the most perfect soul to hold our sacred container for our Union.
    Abegael it was such a pleasure & honor to have you be our officiant. Thank you for listening to us on a soul level. It was truly magical for us.
    Both my wife, myself and all those in attendance give Abegael a big star review! She is a delight and has so much richness to offer. -

    Candace and Maria, thank you! Truly, it was my honour and great joy to prepare and create this wedding with you. ....truly magical in every way that ceremony can be........imagining it, welcoming the mystery, festively gathering, finding rich language and strong ritual....all meaningful and honouring and crazy happy! Your guests cheered you, married you, toasted the sacred in a delicious and meaningful cacao ceremony, danced you from ceremony into married life. We rocked it, and knocked it out of the park...Stanley Park. I will always be grateful that I had the joyful experience of being your chosen celebrant.....May longtime wild and happy newlywed joys be yours!

    Magical Ceremony

    Friends and family said this was the most beautiful wedding ceremony they had ever been to

    Life Threads Ceremonies's reply:

    Anjela, it was such a wonderful gathering. I loved that we were able to weave so many different rituals together: women marking an earth mandala with rose petals to create the ceremonial ground to the Objibwe family drum song, our Squamish elder opening the directions, you each adding a leaf and petal to the Ringwarming bag before it moved through your guests for their blessing...... and of course, I loved surprising you and K with the little bags of Lay's and Hardbite chips in your gift basket! How else to commemorate your proposal in the snack aisle of Supervalu!..... Thank you for inviting me to co create this extraordinary wedding with you on the banks of Jericho Beach, enhanced by all the elements. ......a very special gathering of love and joy.

    Life altering and meaningful

    Andrew and I cannot describe fully in words just how amazing Abegael has been over the last year preparing the most beautiful wedding ceremony that was truly meaningful to us. She worked with us to craft something that was real and intimate with our guests. We had bells, Persian carpet and the hand fasting that was a great touch to the wedding. For those looking for non religious but still a spiritual ceremony look no further than a Abegael. Our guests were blown away and said it was the best wedding they had ever been to.

    Josee and David's Celebration of Love

    A friend referred us to Abegael when we were looking for someone to marry us. We weren’t aware there were such things as Life Cycle Celebrants. We were excited about this concept as it aligned with our spiritual practices. We had a beautiful ceremony by the river honouring nature. The ceremony was very inclusive, which is one of the aspects our guests enjoyed most. Abegael was able to combine our ideas with her ideas and experiences. We received wonderful feedback about our ceremony, and how much it represented us. Abegael was flexible and adaptable, and we appreciated the numerous times we revised our script. The price was more than what we had wanted to spend, but we realized we were paying for her experience. Overall, we were happy the with kind of ceremony we had.
