Thank you Deborah!

Deborah was fantastic to work with, from when we first chatted a year out, through several workshops/prep sessions in the months leading up, plus countless offline back and forth with tips and feedback. We wanted a ceremony that was deeply meaningful for us and spiritual without being religious, and an officiant who would help us craft it to be 100% us.
The ceremony came together and was delivered beautifully. While everything felt uniquely us, she artfully created space for everyone around us, regardless of their background, faith system, etc, to feel and share in that sacrament with us.
The process to get there and draft everything was also painless (and fun!).
One of the big pieces of feedback we got on our wedding from guests was how “intentional” everything felt. We think a huge part of that was rooted in crafting such a unique and special ceremony.

An incredible guide and resource for creating our unique ceremony

Rev Deb was an amazing resource and guide to us as we crafted a relatively atypical ceremony for our not-quite-a-wedding. She shared a wealth of knowledge, clearly accrued from guiding many couples through similar processes, while still allowing us to create something that felt unique and new to us. She also elegantly managed the various people other than ourselves who were involved in our ceremony, for which we were very grateful!

A perfect ceremony!

We had the BEST experience with Deborah. Our wedding ceremony was a dream, and Deborah helped us make the process as streamlined and easy as possible. After our wedding, so many of our family and friends mentioned that they thought our ceremony was one of the most unique and beautiful wedding ceremonies they had ever seen. The ceremony was the one thing we were the most apprehensive about putting together, especially because neither of us are religious but we are coming from religious families. Deborah guided us towards a ceremony that was the perfect combination of meaningful symbolism and it felt very warm and personal. It was also so great to meet up with her in person and walk through the details! If you're looking for a truly special wedding officiant, we would highly recommend Deborah Roth!
