Super easy and stress free

Working with Valarie was one of the easiest parts of my weddings. With so many decisions to make and time not on our side, she was great to offer suggestions and completely understood our crazy schedules. She is super responsive to questions or concerns and very easy to work with. Nothing negative to say!! Do yourself a favor and contact her for help. You won't regret it. I would call her again if needed!

Could not have done it without Valarie

Valarie was very responsive and had great ideas for the ceremony. My husband and I are a bit of the shy type so I was so appreciative of Valarie’s input for vows. She helped pick poems and emailed me the whole ceremony outline with different variations for me to chose from before the big day. I could not have done it without her. Very good pricing for the effort she puts into making your day special.
