    My husband and I were inspired by high Yelp reviews to work with Reverend Rich for our Nestldown…read morewedding in September. That said, we are sad to be writing only a 3 star review based on our experience. HIGLIGHTS: 1) He was very quick to communicate and always friendly and personable on the phone 2) He was flexible with us changing our date due to the pandemic 3) He was very determined to say my husband's non American name correctly and he did! Thank you so much for that, Reverend Rich! DISAPPOINTMENTS: 1) Wedding day speaking was a lot more monotone and less energetic than what we had hoped for 2) The vows he read at our ceremony were NOT the same as the ones we confirmed in the "final vows" email. 2a) My husband and I both checked this before I sat down to write this review. At best, this was a lack of organization that left us surprised at the altar. Specifically, we removed "for the first time" when Reverend Rich would introduce us as "Mr. and Mrs." We had explained to Reverend Rich that because of covid, we had already been legally married for a year and I had been going by my new last name since then. So, it was not "for the first time" that I was "Mrs.". Some of our less close guests were left confused, and my husband and I had to hide our frustration at the end of the ceremony. Reverend Rich was also aware that we did not need to be legally wed (since again, we had already been legally married for a year at that point), as we discussed not having a marriage license for him to sign. 2b) He also had added "let's do that again" after my husband and I kissed. It wasn't clear if we were supposed to kiss again (which we did), or if the audience didn't clap loud enough to his opinion. The possibility of the latter left us somewhat embarrassed. TLDR; nice guy, but the word doc called "final vows" that we got was not in fact the same doc that he read at our ceremony

That said, Rich has gone aboive and beyond in reaching out to his network and referring me to his other officients which are friends of his. He is a wonderful man who is well connected and is always willing to help in however he can. Thank you Rich!

    We are so glad we had Irene officiate our wedding!…read more She was so knowledgeable about the process and helped us craft the perfect, nondenominational ceremony that highlighted our love story. 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!

    We were looking for an officiant for our wedding and Irene's name came up in our search. I wasn't…read morequite sure what to look for or what to expect, but her earnest communication and feedback made the process easy for us and instilled a lot of confidence in a ceremony that can be as structured or unstructured as you want. 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.

    Pastor Tom was our officiant to wedding this year. We were worried that because he is a pastor,…read more he would have restrictions to how he would marry us since we were not religious. He said it would be no problem and for us to schedule some time to meet. We met with him for nearly 2 hours and it was well worth it. The meeting proved to be insightful in terms of guidance and planning of the the ceremony as well offering suggestions for things such as Unity Candle or Sand Ceremony. He directed us to some verses of the bible which I didn't care for at first but after searching the internet for the right "reading", it turns out they verses are still just words and proved to be a short but powerful message. He also gave us some homework to do - writing our vows and finalize the rough draft of the ceremony with a to-do list. It nearly blew me away how quickly we crossed off the planning of the ceremony with him. He definitely took away the stress from planning this part of the ceremony! He was professional, easy to talk to, available via email, and most importantly, available for our ceremony! He came dressed appropriately, arrived ahead of time, and mingled with our guest. We coudn't be any happier how he was well-spoken with just the right amount of funny, not to mention engaging the whole time. You won't regret meeting him!

It was very comfortable, and he made sure he met all of our expectations without any problem. Despite, hiring him only a few weeks before the wedding, we had so many compliments from guests, saying it seemed he's known us forever by his performance. It was perfect. We also had a recent death in the family shortly before the wedding, which he honored during the ceremony in such a sweet positive way. Both my husband and I as well as all the guests were very happy with him. What more can you ask for. I would definitely recommend him!!

She was patient with our pose and prop requests for pictures and brought some fun signs for us to use too. Everything went perfectly and was better than what we imagined. She even gave us great restaurant recommendations for our wedding dinner! Highly recommend. Thanks for everything Hayne!

    We are beyond grateful for Minister Hayne, who served as both our wedding officiant and…read morephotographer. She truly exceeded our expectations in every possible way. As our officiant, Minister Hayne created a ceremony that was heartfelt, personal, and beautifully tailored to our story. Her warm, calming presence made the entire experience feel meaningful, genuine, and filled with joy. Many of our guests commented on how touching and well‑delivered the ceremony was. As our photographer, she was just as incredible. She made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera and captured every important moment with creativity and care. The photos turned out absolutely stunning--full of emotion, detail, and authenticity. We now have a gorgeous collection of memories that we'll cherish forever. Handling both roles seamlessly is no small task, but Minister Hayne did it with grace, professionalism, and passion. We couldn't have asked for a better person to guide our ceremony and preserve our most special moments. We highly, highly recommend Minister Hayne to any couple looking for an exceptional officiant, photographer, or--if you're lucky enough--both.

    Carol was such a gem of a discovery. We weren't sure if we were going to have a friend to…read more'officiate' our wedding since we already had done our civil ceremony. We figured we'd just repeat a few words for the sake of a ceremony and move on... BUT THEN! We found Carol - the sweetest, caring reverend who added so many ornate intricate details to the ceremony and made it extra special for all guests. ** THE LEAD UP ** Carol spent time getting to know us personally, something not all officiants do. She also gave us homework that made us feel vulnerable with each other, and that made us feel closer together. I always thought couples counseling was for people who had issues, but it turns out you can feel closer together even when you didn't think it was possible! ** THE CEREMONY ** Carol was able to suggest things like a candle lighting, and chiming of a spiritual bowl in the beginning, but also added some lighthearted funny jokes within her speech. She brought our families closer together during the ceremony, and a found a way to get everyone involved when I thought originally it would just be my husband and I going down the aisle. Everyone was so touched by the ceremony, they mentioned this was certainly the highlight of the night -- many friends who have hearts of stone were moved and even teared up. :) Glad we were able to touch the hearts of all our friends and family with the help of Carol. TLDR: Carol is truly amazing, brings spiritual elements and families closer together when you didn't think you could be any closer. I cannot wait to meet up with Carol again.

Our guests felt connected to the ceremony. as has been mentioned many a time to us since the day. It was a beautiful fixture of the day, rather the price of admission for a good meal and a party. Carol was supportive, insightful and kind through every step of the way. We weren't afraid to say our vows to each other in front of our friends and family because she helped us to feel so confident in the words we were saying to on another. We fully trusted Carol, her help and her ability to guide the ceremony. We highly recommend meeting with Carol. Without her we wouldn't have been pushed to write the vows we needed to for one another. We may not have taken the time to reflect so deeply and in depth on our relationship and that would not have produced such a genuine exchange between us and our friends and families through the ceremony. We had not felt so much happiness, love and cheer in such a long time. Thank you Carol for making our ceremony a time in which we finally got to breath and focus on each other. In the end that is what the whole thing was about... Our love and choice to be each others partners, the joining of our worlds and the presentation of that love to those we hold dear. Thank you for helping us to honor that truly.
