Minister Lanci came with a glowing recommendations from one of the venues we were considering and after an initial phone call we knew she was the officiant for us and were so happy to she agreed. We made sure to secure her services well before our wedding date and she made sure that we were tracking to have everything we need for our wedding day (in regards to the ceremony), license, vows, decoration, etc. Not only was Judy very attentive to our needs, she also made sure that she got to know us as a couple, and made our ceremony personalized based on who we are as individuals and together. Minister Lanci went above and beyond our expectations and made sure to get in contact with our venue and to be sure that they have everything in place for ceremony which took a load of stress off of us. To this day we still see parts of things she said during our ceremony being quoted by friends and family on social media.

She captured unbelievable shots of my stubborn and camera shy two year old alongside my newborn who refused to be swaddled the day of our shoot. She came prepared with all the props right to our home for the shoot, I had trouble choosing! She was easy to talk to and excited to take any shots that we wanted or had found online that we liked. The pictures we now have thanks to her will last a lifetime and will always be remembered in my heart as our first portraits as a family of four. Do not hesitate to book Jen, she was amazing!

She acts like your biggest cheerleader and runs with whatever ideas you want to process though.

I've never been to an art auction before, so I figured, I should really come to an art auction…read more What else does one have to do in one's spare time? My first stop was the last hour of the viewing for Moss: Dialogues Between Art and Design, the auction would take place the next morning. I was pleasantly hopeful and validated that the experience felt very much like visiting a gallery. The time frame for the viewing was just a few days. Except, here you know the individuals lurking around may actually buy something, or anticipate on buying something at the actual auction. There is also a big glossy catalogue, but frankly, who needs to see a photo when you have access to the real thing? I wonder how many of those lurking individuals are direct buyers, collectors, and those that were sent by buyers and collectors. I was happy to see other folks snapping photos of the paintings, furniture, sculptures, chandeliers, and whatnot. They did not look like tourists, at least most of them. If anything they looked more like me, like someone who was just curious. Curious enough to snap some photos. Taking pictures is what I like to do. I really liked that it was a very casual atmosphere and I didn't feel awkward or out of place at all. The girl at the front desk was very friendly and smiley and welcoming when I told her that I've never been at an art auction before, is it free to the public? Sure, she said, come in and enjoy! Next stop would be the actual auction! Very exciting!
