Rev Patti at Circus Park

Patti was absolutely amazing! She helped us keep everything smooth sailing even with changes we had to make as last minute as the week of the wedding. She gave us a copy of what she was going to say for us prior to the wedding and let us make changes as we wished (even though it was a perfect sum up of our relationship, so we didn't have to!). Patti made our ceremony very enjoyful for not only us but our guests had some laughs in there as well. We are extremely thankful for her taking the time to get to know my husband and I so she had the perfect script to share for us.
