Thumbtack Review

Thank you for the 5 star review KS! "After the wedding, so many of our friends asked us how we found our officiant. They were all so impressed with the way she captured our love. One friend mentioned that she goes to so many weddings and Barbra was the best she's ever seen. There were moments of laughter and moments of tears. It was truly a beautiful ceremony." It is my honor thank you!! ...

Tuscany in California

Yay, I got to officiate another glorious wedding at Sunstone Villa. The flowers were once again over the top, super romantic setting by La Fete weddings with arbors filled with chandeliers and candles in the vineyard, and a very romantic groom's vows! More pix to come by Terri Smith! ...and this sweet message from the photographer! "I just wanted to say...You are not an officiant!

Applause, applause, Standing Ovation!" ...awww... it is my pleasure! ...

She created a beautiful, emotional and moving ceremony that suited our family just perfectly. We wanted my husband's two children to serve an integral role in the ceremony, as it was extremely important the day signified all of us becoming a family. Barbra worked with us to find the perfect reading for the children to participate in and hel...
