We are glad we chose Reverend Martha as our officiant and would happily recommend her to our friends and family. She was warm, kind and compassionate. Martha was respectful and asked many questions to understand the vision for our ceremony. She delivered the ceremony with authenticity and our guests raved about our choice of officiant.

After just a few moments into our first conversation with Reverend Martha we both knew she was exactly what we were looking for in an officiant. She has a great sense of humor, at the same time she is warm and welcoming. She helped us to feel so comfortable, supported and really took the time to get to know us as a couple creating a ceremony that was truly meaningful and reflective of our love story. We highly recommend Reverend Martha, to any couple looking for a kind, caring, and professional officiant. Thank you so much Rev. Martha for being part of our magical day and marrying us. Best Regards, Lois and Richard Bettenhausen

Martha was absolutely wonderful to work with! I’m so glad we found her to officiate our wedding with a quick turnaround time after the thanksgiving holiday. Martha was kind, punctual, empathetic and understanding. From our first conversation, I knew she would be the perfect person to officiate our wedding. She curated our ceremony with us in mind and took the time to really get to know who we were as a couple, and took all of those details into consideration for our special day. She was communicative and available for any questions. I can’t say how kind Martha was to work with and speak with. I would highly recommend her to officiate weddings and partnerships of all kinds.

We could not have chosen a better officiant for our wedding. From start to finish, we felt very welcomed and she was incredibly friendly and kind towards us. We could tell that she truly wanted the day to be an important day for us, as she tailored the ceremony to our needs and wants. She officiated our wedding in our apartment building, and despite our wedding being simple, it truly felt wonderful and genuine thanks to her beautiful speech she had prepared for us. Bless you Rev.Martha and your family!

Hi Austin, Thank you so much for your kind words and glowing review, it was my pleasure to Officiate for you and Sarah. Your apartment and Wedding were a reflection of the amazing and wonderful people you and Sarah are. From the Charcuterie Board, to the Candle and those mouth watering Guava Danish' everything was absolutely perfect! I wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness! 💞💕
