    Review of Revernd Elizabeth Burgert

    Reverend Elizabeth Burgert was delightful, intelligent, polite, and informed. She listened and understood our needs and wants. She was enthusiastic about all aspects of the wedding, offered a multitude of options for us all along the way while allowing us to keep it personal to hearts and situation. Honestly we couldn't have imagined a better officiant. Thank you.

    Graveside Ceremony

    While Elizabeth does do weddings, in our case she did a graveside ceremony. Her attention to detail was excellent. She brought a bluetooth speaker to enhance her words of comfort. She created a pamphlet and a meaningful array of short prayers relating to our family members. She included a rose to be buried alongside the deceased to further include those present. Her comfort, care and professionalism made the reality of the ceremony very meaningful and greatly appreciated.
    We thank you for being there with us in our time of sorrow.

    Awesome service

    I had reached out to Elizabeth about 2 years ago, we stayed in contact and when it was time to proceed she was on top of it. She’s a very sweet soft spoken woman but she knows her stuff. We couldn’t have gotten a better person to marry us. Thank you so much

    Wonderful experience

    What a wonderful day! Elizabeth made us feel very comfortable and at ease. Prior to the wedding she provided various selections of services that we could choose from and we found the perfect one! She was always available for any questions that we may have had. We would highly recommend her!

    The Perfect Officiant!

    I'll be honest, I choose Elizabeth first because she was the first officiant I found that responded to my message, and she also loves cats. But she ended up being perfect!

    My favorite part of Elizabeth is that she is in love with love. She is very caring and kind and made sure to make our day special. She was also very accommodating. Leading up to the wedding, I was super stressed. She made sure to not just focus on making the wedding day perfect, she made sure to check in with us and make sure that we were doing okay. I truly appreciated that!

    Kind and awesome

    Revered Elizabeth is awesome. She took us through the steps and gave us an excellent poem for our vows. I would recommend her to anyone.

    AMAZING. Very pleased

    Elizabeth was great from the very beginning until the end. She made sure the ceremony turned out just how we imagined. She took the time to get to know us and incorporated our traditions (lazo and arras) in the ceremony. Our ceremony was bilingual (English and Spanish) and her Spanish was very good! Overall, we loved our ceremony and so did our guests. Very pleased!

    Better than I imagined

    We knew Elizabeth was a perfect fit after our first conversation on the phone. Elizabeth was extremely attentive and flexible to our vision. We had a very particular vision in mind, and Elizabeth took what we offered and elevated it to perfection. Although we had specific ideas for our wedding, there were some things we never thought of. Elizabeth understood the tone we were seeking and offered so much incredible material. We look at our ceremony as the result of a partnership between us and Elizabeth. She brought so much beauty to our ceremony and will be the focus of our memories for decades to come.
    The entire process was not only easy, but brought peace to us knowing we had such a professional and creative officiant. After our first skype consultation (we live our of state), we looked at each other and said "she gets it".
    We can not recommend Elizabeth enough. She takes this very seriously and is able to provide exactly what you want. It is essential to have the right officiant for such an important moment of your life.

    I'm so glad we found Elizabeth to guide us with our ceremony. We really could not have done it without her support, and all her thoughts and suggestions really helped us to make it that much more meaningful. Thank you for everything you did to support us both before and during the ceremony!

    Rev. Elizabeth performed our wedding on July 20, 2018 in Spanish and some section in English. For us was very important to know that whoever we choose as vendors was interesting in not only get hired, but instead take the time to know our needs and wants. I can't say enough of how great Elizabeth was in making the time with us, so our wedding ceremony was not only beautiful but specially meaningful that we would have everything that happen during that day in our hearts for the rest of our lives.

    Elizabeth went above and beyond for my husband and I. We came to her with a difficult situation, Simon was from Belgium and spoke French, I was from the US and spoke English. We wanted a bilingual ceremony so that all of our friends and family who came from overseas could enjoy the ceremony. Elizabeth worked tirelessly to make sure every detail and every word was correct in both languages. When the day came she had made packets that had all of the writing in French and English so that even when English was being spoken, the French speakers knew what was being said. The ceremony was even more beautiful than I could have imagined, it flowed with ease from one language to the next. After the ceremony not one person said it wasn't the most beautiful ceremony they have ever seen. She was a able to merge our two lives together in more ways than just officiating our wedding. Elizabeth will go the extra mile, or kilometer for those Europeans like my husband ;) and make your big day better than you can even imagine. We absolutely loved her and would recommend her to anyone whether they have a bilingual ceremony or not!

    Elizabeth is one of a kind. I feel so blessed to have met her. She has such a soothing presence. She remained in very consistent contact with us, and lead us every step of the way to prepare a beautiful and unique ceremony that fit in with our values. She spent so much time getting to know us, and learning about us as a couple, and as individuals. I really feel like she "gets" us. She is very passionate about life and love and her spirituality. It was something that my husband and I both admired. She was patient and helped us when we were indecisive or vague, and she used her vast experience to put our scattered ideas together into something really beautiful. We received numerous compliments on her, and our ceremony. We were told by one guest that ours was the most touching and unique service they had ever attended, and ours was their 5th wedding this year. I'm almost sad that marriage is once in a lifetime, because I'd love to hire Elizabeth again! I will reccomend her to every couple I meet.

    Thank you, Elizabeth. You created the most important and beautiful piece of our wedding, and we are so grateful.

    It was such a pleasure having Elizabeth officiate our wedding & we are so happy we found her! We would highly recommend Simple Ministry (Elizabeth) to anyone getting married in the Milwaukee area. After deciding to trade in a courthouse wedding for a small wedding at home, we found Elizabeth on Weddingwire, and she was extremely accommodating despite the short notice - she even made time to meet us and get to know us even though we only had 10 days of planning. She sent us a variety of ceremonies that we could use, and edited the one we liked most to fit us perfectly.

    We can't say enough great things about Elizabeth. Her attention to detail and passion for being a minister really stood out, and we are so thankful for her. Thanks again, Elizabeth, you will forever be such an important part of our wedding day! You made the ceremony absolutely perfect and we will always remember that :)

    Elizabeth did such an AMAZING job, everything was so beautiful, personal, and we couldn't have asked for anything more. So many people notated that it was the most beautiful and personal ceremony that they have ever been too, and that they could feel our love for one another, she helped make that happen!

    The only thing I wish is that we have more time to chat with her as everything was going by so fast! :) We highly recommend Elizabeth if you are looking for a truly personalized ceremony and someone wonderful to work with!

    My husband and I met Elizabeth under different/special circumstances, we were granted our wedding though an amazing organization called Wish Upon a Wedding. My husband has cancer, and this organization gave us the gift of a beautiful wedding, and connected us with wonderful people who were willing to share their time and talent with us, meet Rev. Elizabeth. She gifted us with her time and got to know us the best she could in a short period of time. She sat down with us and listened about who we were and what we really wanted for ourselves and for our wedding day. She provided us with everything we needed to ensure our wedding was beautiful and meaningful. We couldn't thank her enough for guiding us through the wedding process, and for everything she did to make sure there was a peaceful flow to our day. We highly recommend Rev Elizabeth and we are very grateful we met her.

    Elizabeth provided a professional and calming experience for my husband and me. She is both personal and organized, and we enjoyed spending time with Elizabeth during our meeting sessions. Elizabeth provides a patient and listening ear and heart, working to make certain that your ceremony is exactly what you would hope for. We have been blessed to also find a friend in Elizabeth, something that is rare in many business transaction nowadays. She took the time to get to know Michael and me, and our families both through personal meetings and a very efficient questionnaire for Michael and I to work on together. We had the most beautiful and simple backyard ceremony, intertwined with our Christian faith. Thank you Elizabeth! We will be forever grateful!

    Elizabeth took the time to get to know us and to personalize our ceremony for us. We enjoyed working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone. She was very organized and relaxed during the whole process which helped me and my fiancé feel comfortable. During the day of our wedding she was there on time and gave us a ton of information and resources if anything should happen to her and she wasn't able to make up. Overall, hire her! You will have a personalized, beautiful ceremony to look back on for the rest of your life.
