She was easy to work with and provided us clear deadlines for when we needed to give her specific info, which really helped us manage our time and gave us structure. What I loved most of all was that I had full faith Irene had it under control, and for our wedding day, we really wanted to reduce our stress and have fun with it. Irene nailed the assignment! Several of our guests told us after the wedding how much they loved the ceremony. We have Irene to thank for it turning out just as magical as we had imagined!

For us, we wanted structure, and Irene presented us with lots of options. I want to highlight her eloquence and her natural curiosity. She asked all the right questions and weaved together an introduction that moved us, and turned a magical moment into something divine. I would recommend her regardless of the particular needs of your ceremony, because I think she has the experience and wisdom to adapt to your needs.

The thoughtfulness she brought to honoring our ancestors and land acknowledgment, the way she wove together how we met and the core values that guide us every day, all felt deeply personal and intentional. Her beautiful poetry and storytelling created space for both our Black and Jewish traditions and histories in a way that felt authentic, loving, and profoundly meaningful. Days later, we are still reeling from the magic of that day and so grateful Annie was the one who guided us through it.

Andrew was great he was able to officiate our wedding with short notice (about 2 weeks) as our original officiant was not able to follow through. He's very professional and organized.

Andrew was very professional and presented a template of vows that we can work with. Being that we are both very busy and expecting a child soon, working on the details of ceremony and vows was a lower priority so it was great Andrew had something we can work with!! Andrew followed up closely with us up until the day of ceremony so we knew what to expect. No surprises for sure! On the day of ceremony, Andrew arrived at the meeting point (Palace of fine art) more than 1/2 hour early as not not be late. Of course, we ended up running behind schedule by 15 mins... but this goes to show you the professionalism of Andrew. After the ceremony, Andrew closely followed up with us about submitting paperwork to the city, and also about obtaining a valid copy of our marriage license. Overall Andrew was great from beginning to the end. He has made a stressful event not stressful. His professionalism is well appreciated and his performance in speech was great. We highly recommend Andrew for your next officiant needs!

Shyamala was the perfect choice to perform our ceremony at the Brazilian Room. She crafted and…read moredelivered the perfect ceremony for us and several people commented on how beautiful and true to the two of us it was. Working with her was an absolute pleasure every step of the way. She really has a talent for asking the right questions and sensing who you are as individuals and as a couple, then reflecting that in your ceremony. She has curated a wonderful selection of readings and rituals to give you some ideas for things to incorporate in your ceremony, but is also skilled at bringing in any other ideas you might have. She sent us a draft of our ceremony two weeks out (which made me cry the first time I read it, tip: don't read it at work) then worked with us from there to make it perfect. Afterwards, she gave us a printed copy of our beautiful ceremony to look back at forever. We can't recommend her enough.

We first heard of Shyamala through our wedding planner since we were having a Napa Valley…read moredestination wedding and are originally from Boston. We relied a lot on recommendations from our planner as she had worked with many vendors and was more familiar with the area than we were. When researching Shyamala, the first thing we did was listen to a video she had posted on her website. We absolutely fell in love with her voice - there is just something so calming and soft about it - that we knew we had to speak with her. Knowing that we would both be filled with nerves and anxiety on the big day it was important we felt calm with our officiant during the ceremony. We quickly booked a phone conversation with her and in the first five minutes we spoke we knew she was the perfect fit for us! Since we were from Boston, we wanted to meet her in person at least once before our September wedding so we mentioned we would be flying out to Napa for some wedding events (food tasting, cake tasting, etc) in February and she offered us over to her home for coffee and cookies (so sweet)! We met with her for an hour and just talked as she got to know us as a couple and our journey together over the last 10 years. After we left we just felt even more validated that we chose the perfect person to officiate our wedding. Our wedding in September was a dream come true and the ceremony was absolutely perfect!! Shyamala did such an amazing job that we actually had several guests come up to us throughout the evening and still to this day comment about how great of a job she did and how it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they've ever seen! If you're in search of an officiant in the Napa/Northern Cali area please do yourself a favor and book Shyamala - you will not be disappointed!!

All of our meetings with her were incredibly informative, she guided us step by step on what to expect when getting married and made everything feel smooth and stress free. Saundra was always available whenever we had questions, and her communication was excellent. We truly appreciated how responsive and reliable she was. It also meant so much to us that she took care of delivering our marriage license to the city hall clerks and even provided a tracking number for added security. The ceremony she delivered was absolutely beautiful. We loved her questionnaires and the way she used them to craft something so personal and meaningful. She really took the time to get to know us as a couple, which made the ceremony feel authentic and special. On top of that, she brought such a fun, warm energy while still respecting everything we wanted for our wedding. We highly recommend Saundra to anyone looking for an officiant who is caring, organized, and truly dedicated to making your day unforgettable. Saundra, thank you so much for everything you did for us. We are incredibly grateful for your support and for helping make our wedding day so special.

We were…read morelooking for a more casual and non-religious officiant for our wedding and Saundra was more than willing to accommodate our preferences. Our first intro call was extremely informative. She laid out her process and her experiences with other couples and different types of weddings she's officiated in the past. It was clear she was an experienced officiant from the well-established process she had. Her communication was very effective. Her meetings were tailored toward new couples who have zero experience with weddings and she was always responsive to any questions we had through email or text. We received many compliments about the Ceremony that she officiated. Saundra had developed 90% of the script herself and personalized it based on our preferences. Her delivery and energy was less officiant-like and more casual/home-like which was what we were hoping for. I definitely would recommend Saundra as an officiant for any wedding. Her support and preparation for our wedding left no ambiguity during the ceremony.

Her warmth and kindness are palpable even through a video call, and her commitment to honoring the beauty and history of the Persian wedding ceremony is apparent from the very first interaction.

We have heard from all of our guests that it was the most beautiful ceremony they have ever seen, and this was entirely due to Nilou's professionalism, warm demeanor, and passion for her work. We were so thrilled with the way Nilou's ceremony blended together our two cultures and made for the perfect start to our families joining together. Thank you Nilou!!
