    Amazing Officiant

    We hired Ann from Splendid Ceremonies to officiate our wedding, and she exceeded our expectations! Not only is she kind, approachable, and organized-- but was extremely flexible and worked with us through several edits to get the script just right. On the wedding day, she arrived on time and came dressed perfectly for the occasion; she looks great in the photos, smiling and pleasant, while also brilliantly managing to move out of the important shots. Her diction and cadence was notably good during the ceremony (lots of people teared up). We found her pricing to be quite fair for what she provides. She submitted the paperwork on our behalf immediately, so we received our license lightning fast with a cute printout of the ceremony script. Of all the vendors we hired, she was easily one of the best.

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you so much, Dessa, for the very warm and generous review! You hit all the points many couples ask about in initial interviews with me. This will be tremendously helpful to them! I am so glad you and Jerome found me and that I was able to be part of celebrating your love on that most special day.

    Great officiant!

    Ann was great from start to finish. We told her our plans for our mountain elopement and she was able to help us create the perfect ceremony. We wanted short and sweet and she did just that. She allows you to really customize your ceremony and we really liked that. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for officiant services!!

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Natalie, I'm so glad to read your review! It was a pleasure to work with you two and be part of your private ceremony. I'm delighted to know it was the ceremony of your dreams! Thank you so much for choosing me to share in your happiness.

    Incredible!

    Ann was so helpful when we prepared our ceremony. We had some unusual ideas (like quoting a musical for our vows), and she just went with the flow and made suggestions to make the ceremony flow naturally. She was easy to talk to, and one of our easiest wedding vendors. 11/10, would recommend to a friend!

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Perfect day!

    Ann helped create the perfect ceremony for our special day. We had an interfaith wedding, with my sister performing part of the ceremony. Ann incorporated everything we wanted and made the ceremony personal and heartfelt. My tough hubby even cried. It was a perfect day. I highly recommend her!! Very quick to respond to messages and very professional. We didn't have to guess or worry about anything. She had the best suggestions and helped us design the perfect ceremony. 🥰

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Rae, I was so happy to join you, your sister and your families as you "tied the knot" at your home. It warmed my heart to partake of the joy and happiness you all shared. Thank you for including me, and thanks for this awesome review!

    Wonderful JP

    I highly recommend Ann. She made our service memorable. Ann put together a lovely ceremony. We were very happy with our choice to hire her. She was very professional and responds back to you fast. Also she is a very nice person. Thank you Ann for all of your help.

    Accommodating and easy-going

    Ann was more than happy to go out on our pontoon boat for a ceremony in the water at the lake we live at. She is very warm and personable. Our special day could not have gone any better.

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Oh my gosh - YES! *IN* the lake!! But what better place to get married on a hazy, hot and humid summer day?! Only a wild and crazy couple (and their JP) would ever do such a thing. LOL I'm so glad I got to be a part of your very special day!

    Surprise wedding!!

    We’ve been together for a long time but when we decided we wanted to get married on 8/8 and it was 8/6 I knew just who to contact. We just wanted a small ceremony with us and Ann did just that in her beautiful horse pasture. She made it exactly what we wanted, simple but very special. We’ll never forget it. There is no one I’d recommend more!!

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you for taking the time to share this review, Jess! I was so happy to read your kind words and know that, even though it was spur of the moment, the ceremony captured you two perfectly. I'm so glad we had the chance to work together!

    Wonderful experience highly recommended

    Ann did an amazing job turning our small outdoor wedding ceremony into a moment we will never forget. She took the time to get to know us and create a program including vows that were so meaningful! The words were so touching each guest had tears of joy on their faces. This picture shows the true happiness she helped create that day.

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you so much, Maria, for taking the time to share your experience with other couples in such a comprehensive review! I will always remember how carefully you chose and shared your vows... It was truly a ceremony full of joy and a once in a lifetime day.

    a great experience!

    Ann was awesome to work with, and really contributed to making our wedding as special as it was. She helped us personalize and structure our ceremony so it was perfect. She was very professional and kind- having her there was very reassuring. We would definitely recommend her to anyone seeking an officiant!

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you so much for this wonderful review, Bailey! I'm happy to know that you felt you were in good hands and that the experience of “tying the knot” was so positive and reaffirming. I am so glad you and Corey found me and that I was able to be part of celebrating your love on that most special day!

    Wonderful!

    Anne was a wonderful officiant! She took the time to get to know us as a couple and customized our ceremony to suit us and was very flexible. On the rehearsal day as well as the big day she was professional and knew how to organize and speak to a large wedding party, but at the same time was kind and happy to be a part of our special day. I would definitely recommend Splendid Ceremonies to any couple! :)

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Meagan! It was an honor—and a pleasure!—to be part of such a special day for you. I'm very happy to hear that the process and experience of working together was so wonderful. I loved being a part of your happiness -- thank you for choosing me to share your special day!

    Helpful and professional

    We decided at the last minute to have a quiet, private ceremony. Ann was very helpful in working out the details. She was flexible, professional, and responsive. She worked with us to find something that worked for our unique situation and desires.

    AMAZING! Splendid Ceremonies

    My hubby and I used Splendid Ceremonies, with Ann, for our wedding in October. To say she was amazing, wouldn't be enough. She was beyond responsive and respectful of our every need. I loved that she had a premade pamphlet of ideas for our ceremony. It really allowed us to create something a little less traditional and more "us". Our family and friends ranted and raved about how beautiful our ceremony was, and I would choose her all over again! Highly recommend!!!

    Professional Elegance

    Ann married us on Labor Day weekend 2021 in Sunapee, NH. She is a kind, wonderful person who took the time to get to know us and our personalities over phone calls and emails. She helped us craft a beautiful and personal ceremony and when the big day came, everything went flawlessly! Ann is a professional and a truly caring individual who will do all she can to ensure your ceremony is a perfect one that you will always remember. Thank you Ann!
    Love,
    Stefan and Charlotte xx

    Truly Couldn't have asked for Better

    I was honestly quite late to my own wedding but she had understood how much I wanted it to be a quick concise ceremony. She delivered a perfect ceremony in quick fashion and we were off to go swimming in no time! Personalized vows were amazing too!

    The perfect choice

    Ann was nothing short of amazing. She walked us through every step of the process, brainstormed and gave us plenty of ideas for the ceremony, and worked with us in detail to fine tune every single line and word. Even though we had no rehearsal, she was able to show up the day of, get all of the paperwork handled, and give us an absolutely beautiful ceremony. She even traveled across the state for us, and we couldn't be more grateful. We couldn’t have asked for a better, more beautiful or seamless experience, and we can’t recommend her enough! If you're on the fence, believe us, she's the perfect choice.

    Small outdoor wedding in rural New Hampshire

    Ann was fantastic to work with. My husband and I had no idea where to start with our wedding ceremony or vows; she gave us so many resources that helped us tailor our ceremony perfectly for us with her guidance. She was so knowledgeable about different customs and ceremonies within the ceremony (unity, knot tying, etc) and supplied us with resources to help decide if including one was right for us. She kept us on track and made the whole experience stress free! She also explained the marriage license process which was so helpful.

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    I so appreciate your thoughtful review. Beth! I'm glad to read your reflections on the experience of working together before, during and after the big day.

    Splendid NH Wedding

    Our ceremony reading was perfect! My fiance and I were nervous regarding the ceremony; we didn't know where to start or even the basic structure of the ceremony. Ann made it so easy and customizable to make it uniquely ours. She gave us great resources and was always available for us so we could tailor it to exactly what we wanted. She was extremely professional and we highly recommend her services!

    Splendid Ceremonies's reply:

    Charlotte, I'm so glad to read your review! It was a pleasure to get to know you and and Casey and be part of creating a ceremony that was uniquely your own. Your choice of reading by Thomas a Kempis is a favorite of mine, too! Thank you so much for choosing me to share in your happiness!
