A perfect ceremony
We were married by Rev Pam in Central Park in Des Plaines. She is absolutely fantastic. She was fast to respond to my questions regarding availability. The process to book online is so easy and fast. She is very thorough and covers all the little details. On our wedding day she gave us exactly what we were wanting, a small intimate ceremony. She has such a passion for marrying people. She is absolutely wonderful and we are so happy with our day. Thank you so much Rev Pam, you made our day wonderful!! -

COVID 19 couldn’t stop us!
Rev. Pam is very responsive, answered all our questions and helped to make our social distancing wedding a truly memorable one. From the moment we arrived, she welcomed us with a smile and made us feel at home. We held our ceremony in the garden at Rev. Pam’s home. She took some beautiful pictures and videoed the ceremony for us. It was obvious to us that Rev. Pam loves what she does! By the time we left, we felt that Rev. Pam was a friend. We highly recommend holding your wedding at Pine Manor! You will be surrounded with beauty and love and your wedding will be unforgettable. Thank you Rev. Pam for sharing this special moment in our lives.

Our Pine Manor All Day Elopement Wedding was Magical! My fiance' (Oops sorry... my wife) and I just wanted to share our special day together and not use up all of our savings on a big wedding. We pondered the idea of eloping on a cruise, or a destination wedding, but when we did the math they all ended up costing about as much as having a big wedding at home (not to mention the stress of planning it). We both agreed that we wanted to do more than a court house marriage... and then we found Rev Pam at Pine Manor! We absolutely love HER! She took such good care of us every step of the way. The flowers that Rev Pam put together were beautiful, the wedding cake was absolutely delicious (and adorable), the photographer (Demitri) was very professional and talented, and our violinist (Emily) was incredible. We knew it was going to be a special day for us, but we had no idea just how special it was going to be. Rev Pam's personal touch and adaptability was just remarkable. She made us as comfortable as possible, and kept the whole day as stress free as we could have possibly hoped for. We lucked out and the weather behaved for us just long enough for us to have our ceremony in her lovely yard. It was absolutely wonderful. We strongly recommend Rev Pam and Pine Manor for your wedding! We drove (60) miles to have our wedding there and it was well worth it! She has so many options for whatever it is you are looking for in your wedding. Good LuckIL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:
Elsa and Chris - My pleasure - it was my honor to be part of your life together. I really enjoyed our time together and Im so hapy yu both were so happy. I love my job! Rev Pam -

Large Wedding with several days of events
Reverend Pam was fantastic! She helped us plan our June 2, 2018 wedding and helped us organize some of the other events as well. She booked the hotel in Elk Grove Village which was also the wedding venue, she got the invitations, cake, photographer, videographer, violonist, and was our officiant. We really enjoyed our year long planning process with her. She was very sensitive and understanding of our cultural differences and traditions. She even sent us a nice card a year later to remind us of our lovely ceremony. Our guests absolutely loved our wedding and reception. We are so happy we chose Reverend Pam as our officiant and wedding planner.IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:
Thank you so much Jacky for your kind words and wonderful review. I enjoyed helping create a memorable wedding day for you. Reverend Pam -

We just had our wedding on Aug 26th and Pam was the ribbon that tied it all together! She was both our officiant and the day-of coordinator. We were so thankful that we hired her for both services! It worked out perfectly. She got in touch with all the vendors and things and people just showed up where they were supposed to be at the right time, just like magic!! It was so stress-free! Everyone wouldn't stop talking about how friendly the staff were and that included her staff! Pam is personable, approachable, flexible, unpretentious, warm-spirited and keen. What else do you need, really? If we had to do it again, we'd SO use her again!IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:
Thank you for the kind words - You were amazing couple to marry. The Crystal Garden was amazing location too. I love doing wedding-day coordination. It was my honor to serve you. best of luck. Pam -

Rev. Pam is amazing! My husband is Jewish and I am Catholic. We wanted to ensure that our ceremony was meaningful - that it incorporated elements of both our backgrounds, but was unique and special. Rev. Pam helped create a totally special ceremony, one that included some traditional symbolism as well as some details we added to make it our own. We received so many compliments on how lovely the ceremony was! I never imaged having such a perfect, beautiful, special ceremony! No lulls, awkward silences. Pam really knows how to put on a good show. Highly, highly recommend Pam!IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:
I was so happy to write a ceremony that could blend your faiths - it is something that I really pride myself with. I love finding the right words to make yur ceremony as special as the two of yu are. Im glad I got it (wink) love to you both. Rev Pam -

Rev. Pam planned the most beautiful garden ceremony for my husband and I on 10.4.17. From officiating, to the cake and house wine, to the photos, to my bouquet.. and all the memories in-between! I cannot recommend her enough. Our wedding was everything we ever dreamed of. <3IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:

Rev. Pam is absolutely excellent. My husband and I chose to do the full day elopement package with overnight stay at a local hotel. Rev. Pam took care of ALL - and I do mean ALL - of the details. She booked our room. She booked our videographer and photographer. Rev. Pam took care of the cake, my bouquet, and other flowers. The music was beautiful and we were able to bring our own playlist as well. We danced the evening away, we had a romantic dinner by the fire. We had lunch in the garden. She cooked all of the food for us! And it was all DELICIOUS. There was unlimited house wine and personalized glasses for my husband and I. Every single detail was well thought out and amazing. The best part was Rev. Pam wrote a personalized ceremony for us. We were able to make edits and ask for special things to take place during our ceremony, and she was so welcoming and warm to it all. Seriously, I know it sounds too good to be true, but just try it. Set up a meeting with her. See for yourself. Our special day was so intimate, and we did not have to worry about a single detail all day. Having our wedding at Pine Manor with Rev. Pam was the best decision we could have ever made for ourselves. Thanks Rev. Pam!! With full and grateful hearts, thank you!IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:

I wouldn't change anything about that day :]IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:

She made our wedding day, for being planned at the last minute, she was very helpful. I would recommend her to anyone I know who is looking for an Officiant. She is just great!IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:

We wanted a small intimate setting outside of the courthouse, Pine Manor and Rev Pam was the right choice! We were very happy with everything that was provided with for us and it also took a lot of pressure of me to get things done, Rev Pam does it all and does a great job!

We wanted a small and private ceremony so we travelled to Chicago to get married. We were utterly satisfied with our choice with Pine Manor. The whole experience exceeded our expectations and we were so glad that we chose chicago and chosed Rev Pam ( so yeah, in chicago, you can get married 24 hours after you get the marriage license so basically you can get it done within 2 days. Rev Pam was able to accommodate us in a very short notice). She was so lovely and very professional. She explained the procedure to us very clearly and executed it perfectly. We couldn't ask for a better wedding officiant. As far as we know, not many people in Illinois have gay marriage licenses and Rev Pam has it, so any couple (wink). She charges a very affordable rate. If you don't plan to spend big bucks on your wedding but you want it to be special and beautiful, and full of loving spirit, please go to Rev Pam. Her garden was gorgeous by the way. We sincerely recommend her to you. - EJ and TimIL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:

She was very nice and accommodating. The ceremony was exactly how we wanted and afterwards Rev. Pam took some great pictures of us all. The pricing was great as well.

Our wedding ceremony went off without a hiccup! The day was beautiful, the garden and home are as lovely as the pictures on the website. Rev. Pam is thoughtful & wanted to make our special day as we would want it, and more. I chose the weekly best rate package, and our cake was pretty to look at and yummy to eat! The flowers were cute too! We chose a handfasting ceremony---and Rev. Pam did not disappoint us with her work. I felt as though she understood us and our needs completely. I was able to pay entirely online, for the package, as well as the handfasting cord on Ebay through links on her website. I also downloaded our pics Rev. Pam took only a few hours after the service, and I was able to send them out to our loved ones. The house is quaint. Rev. Pam is fun and easy to work with. Parking is ample on the street, and the location is close to lovely downtown Mt. Prospect. We had time to grab a bite to eat up the street and make it to our ceremony on time!IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:

Rev. Pam helped make our special day extra meaningful. She was able to arrange everything in a short period of time so that we were able to get married on our 9th anniversary. She is so warm, thoughtful, helpful and made us and our guests feel very welcome in her lovely home. Her attention to detail is very evident in everything from the colors she asked the baker to incorporate for us, to the gorgeous floral arrangements she designed, to the goody bags she gave us, to her creative photography shots, and made us feel special. She's very flexible and was able to fulfill all of our requests. Thanks to Rev. Pam, our wedding was so much more than I thought it would be given the short amount of time we had to get everything in place. We highly recommend her and are SO glad we found her!IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:

Rev. Pam is the best she made our day so special. We wanted a small venue with a quick ceremony. Pam understood and walked us through every step. I was planning a garden wedding as her garden is amazing but we got stuck with rain on our day. Rev. Pam made my day when I saw she decorated the house with Sunflowers that matched my flowers! Rev Pam also made my bouquet it was exactly like the picture I sent her. Pam ordered our cake from Central Bakery and not only was it beautiful, it tasted great too! Moist and the banana filling was perfect. My husband was so impressed that the frosting was not fondant, that's how smooth the butter-cream looked! Rev. Pam is so sweet and made us feel at home, I would recommend her to anyone!IL Wedding Officiant, Rev Pamela & Pine Manor Chicago's reply:
