What my clients say...
From the moment we contacted Joanne to officiate our wedding, we knew we were in great hands. Her warm personality and genuine passion for creating memorable ceremonies made the entire process a joy. Joanne took the time to get to know us as a couple, incorporating our story and personal touches into the ceremony, which truly made it unique.
On the day, Joanne was nothing short of exceptional. Her calm demeanor and professional presence helped soothe our nerves, and her eloquent words captured the essence of our love beautifully. Guests were moved by her heartfelt delivery, and many commented on how engaging and personable she was.
She is not only an outstanding celebrant but also a wonderful person who genuinely cares about the couples she works with.
Joanne was an amazing celebrant. She made the entire process very easy. Our ceremony was everything we could have hoped for and more. Highly recommend.
Our 30th anniversary renewal ceremony was most definitely the highlight of our day, thanks to Joanne! We could’ve gone home after the ceremony and been totally satisfied. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed every magical moment and couldn’t stop talking about how unique, funny and emotional it was, compared to other ceremonies they’ve attended. Joanne perfectly compiled our story from beginning to end by asking various questions which made it personable, memorable and out right amazing. She had the guest interacting while playing a couples game and they loved every second of it. I highly recommend Joanne for any type of ceremony. She is articulate, fun, professional and just THE BEST!!!! Thanks for everything Joanne.
