Madison is awesome!

We were looking for an officiant for our small elopement ceremony. I contacted Madison fairly last minute (about a month before our date) and she was able to accommodate us. She did a great job customizing our ceremony and making it very personal and memorable. Madison is very responsive and flexible. She was even willing to accommodate a possible change in ceremony time due to unforeseen weather. I cannot say enough great things about Madison and Sunshine Wedding Officiants! We highly recommend for your special day :)

Madison was absolutely amazing! She was super thoughtful and made our day and commitment perfect for what we wanted. She perfectly guided the ceremony to incorporate everything we wanted from our religious parents and our more spiritual personal beliefs - everyone loved it.

Madison Pinder was Amazing

We had our wedding just this past weekend (2.20.2022), and Madison Pinder was our Officiant there. Absolutely loved what she wrote for us, and we got a little card with the ceremony vows written to keep! Thank you so much, Madison!!

Amazing officiant

Madison did a wonderful job officiating our wedding. Before the wedding, Madison wrote and shared a draft of the script that she would read, which made us feel very comfortable leading up to the wedding. During the big day, Madison arrived early, introduced herself, and perfectly carried out the ceremony. We and our guests were blown away by her demeanor. After the wedding, she gave us a special copy of the script she had written and handled the mailing of our marriage certificate so we could enjoy our honeymoon. Thank you so much for helping make our day special!

Absolutely Amazing!!

Madison was amazing! She prepared a personal ceremony for our big day; it couldn't have fit us more perfectly. We also had her as our day of coordinator. It helped everything run perfectly. Any details I missed were caught and fixed. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant and coordinator. Absolutely would recommend booking for anyone's big day!

Made our wedding day the amazing day it was.

Madison goes the extra mile to help her couples prepare for their big day. As our wedding officiant she took her time to write our vows for us off of information that we gave her, and we loved what she came up with. We not only had her as our officiant but also as our day of coordinator. She was a lifesaver with coordinating a day of time line and making sure it was just the way we wanted it. Madison made sure the DJ and Photographers both had the same time line and finalized all details with them and the other vendors. With our work schedules it was such a help to have someone who helped us finalize everything and stay on top of last minute things. She helped us with everything down to a packing list for the day of so we would not forget anything. The day of she made sure to be there early to know everything was where it should be and helped the day flow by so well. I do not think I can stress enough how much of a lifesaver Madison was to have as a part of our big day. She is so sweet and helpful. Thank you so much for making our day so wonderful Madison !

Wonderful personalized ceremony

Madison was a joy to work with. She put in a lot of effort to get to know us and ensured that our ceremony was not only to our taste, but was very personal. She also helped to wrangle our bridal party at the rehearsal (which was likely akin to herding cats) and mailed our license for us, so we could enjoy our honeymoon without worry.

The key member of our dream team

We had the pleasure of working with Madison as our wedding officiant and as the day-of-coordinator for a small wedding in Gainesville, FL and she knocked both roles out of the park. Madison is sweet and super easy to work with. She is very responsive to your needs and concerns. She takes the time to know the couple and works hard to craft the ceremony to fit the special qualities that define your love for each other. The vows she wrote for us were better than anything we could have dream of.
As a day of coordinator, Madison managed all of the moving pieces and worked hard to make sure everything was running as smooth as possible in all phases of the ceremony and reception: photography, food, DJ...etc.
We cannot recommend Madison enough!

My husband and I got eloped in Saint Augustine, Florida. Madison was great to work with. She is easy to contact and replies quickly. Our vows that she wrote for us turned out amazing and so personalized! She even stepped aside for our first kiss without us asking, allowing for gorgeous photos. I know that’s odd to put into a review, but that goes to show how thoughtful she is and how much effort she puts into each ceremony.

Thank you so much for everything you did for us on our big day! You totally exceeded our expectations. You were a life saver for giving me the bobby pin. I wouldn't be able to wear my veil without it. I can't believe I didn't prepare one myself. Thank you for being such a great officiant and did so much more than that!

Officiant of Dreams!

I would happily recommend Madison Pinder of Sunshine Wedding Officiants to any couple planning their nuptials. Madison exudes a unique blend and perfect balance of professionalism and personability. Never having met us previously, she was able to extrapolate our answers from our questionnaire to intuitively capture our vision for our ceremony and write bespoke vows, which we'll always cherish. Madison was extremely prompt with her scheduling and communication, which meant one less thing to worry about with the last-minute organization of a wedding impacted by COVID-19. Madison's flexibility in ceremony order and pricing regarding our intimate backyard wedding was so appreciated. We especially appreciated how she seamlessly and kindly incorporated our pets in our at-home ceremony. Madison made our marriage day so special, and she will certainly be a perfect officiant for any couple regardless of venue.

Fantastic officiant

We had Madison officiate our NYE wedding. We had given her a few details about our relationship when we booked her but since we ordered a custom secular ceremony, she would regularly set up meetings with us to get more information. We were able to review the ceremony and offer suggestions before the wedding. We loved her writing and everyone in our families loved it too. Can't recommend her enough!

Would Recommend in a Heartbeat!

Madison of Sunshine Wedding Officiants was our officiant for our wedding and I would absolutely times a thousand recommend her to anyone! She went above and beyond our expectations. She answered any question I had and even help me navigate the difficulty I was having with particular family dynamics in regards to seating at the ceremony. She had us answer a few questions and completely wrote our vows and captured us so perfectly that it almost seemed like we knew her for years! She had us submit a couple fun questions that were a surprise to the opposite person at the ceremony which was an absolute perfect touch. She directed the ceremony flawlessly and is still helping me through the process of changing my name even after everything is done and over with. She was a phenomenal wedding officiant and I would highly highly recommend her in a heartbeat!

5 stars without a doubt!

Madison officiated my wedding on January 2nd, 2021. Leading up to my wedding, she took the time to be in contact with me to learn all about how my husband and I had met and our story leading up to our marriage. She sent me a proof of our story and her speech, and she absolutely nailed it. Standing at the podium, Madison replayed our love story with such enthusiasm and detail, it made not only myself and my husband have de-ja-vu, but all of our guests really got to learn our story and learn even more about us in just a short time. She speaks loud, clear and is extremely professional and experienced. Madison is easy to get along with and truly loves her job. I highly recommend Madison to anyone looking for an officiant. Thank you Madison!

She is perfect!

I cannot express enough in word how blessed and thankful we were to have Madison as our wedding officiant. She was perfect! We had a Halloween wedding and we had an idea of what we would like our ceremony to have in it, but had no idea what else we wanted. Luckily, Madison knew exactly what we -needed-. She put together about 10 minutes of material for our ceremony and it was spectacular! When we first did a read through we teared up and the same happened as she read it out loud at our ceremony. We had every single person talk about how beautiful the ceremony was and even had a friend of mine ask who she was because he may be popping the question soon. Madison even helped me find a hair stylist last minute when mine canceled! She provided a printed booklet with our ceremony as well. She has it all and we could not be more excited to say she was our officiant! Thank you, Madison!

Madison Pinder - Highly Recommend

If you are anywhere in the Northeast Florida area, Madison is your girl! I was nervous about hiring a stranger to officiate our wedding, but after meeting her, I felt like I made a new friend. She was so personable and professional.
After meeting and filling out a quick form, she wrote out our entire ceremony and sent it a month beforehand. My husband and I read through it for the first time together and were in tears. It was filled with so much love and truly represented us perfectly.
On our wedding day, she was early and went above and beyond her duties. As soon as she came in, she made sure everything was ready for our ceremony and then was asking what else she could help with. I was feeling a little overwhelmed when people started showing up and she sat with me to make sure I was okay and had such a calming effect on me. She was also flexible with some VERY last minute changes I made to the ceremony. Multiple guests after the ceremony told me how wonderful they thought she was and I couldn't agree more! If your'e still questioning hiring a stranger like I was, look no further. She is GREAT and you will not regret your decision!

She kept all of us on track before the ceremony started and after meeting us for 1 hour the first time she was able to write vows that were personal to us and really showed that she listened and picked up on things we did not even think about. She is highly recommended and I have been telling anyone I know that is even thinking about getting married to contact Madison to officiate. She is a huge asset to your company!

Beautiful ceremony.

Dealing with this vendor was a breeze throughout our wedding planning process. I reached out and immediately heard back from Madison Pinder.. They have the option to speak over the phone or fill out a questionnaire where you let them know about yourselves and what specific things you want in your ceremony. We are busy people so we opted for just filling out the questionnaire and we let Madison take care of the rest. The vows were beautifully written, personal and special. I loved that I was able to add my own special touches to the writing as well and Madison was always very kind with each draft until it was perfected. Elaine was our actual officiant because we wanted the ceremony to be bilingual (spanish and english). Elaine did a great job with the translation and making sure it all flowed nicely together. She reached out a few days before the ceremony to make sure everything was in order and arrived on time the day of, and was very professional and helpful. Overall the experience was a great one and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend to our friends/family. Thanks again.

Miami Elopement

My wife and I had planned a trip to Miami and decided last minute to have a private ceremony on the beach. We reached out to Sunshine Wedding Officiants literallt 1 week before our trip. The quick professional response was great and the process was so easy. We received a questionnaire form that we filled and submitted. Literally the next day or so we received an e-mail with vowels that Madison wrote for us. They were beautiful and fitting to us. We arrived on a Monday and touched base with Elaine for the ceremony on Tuesday. We met at the location and everything went beautifully. It was just what we wanted. Big thank you to Madison and Elaine for bringing our day to life.

We had our ceremony perform by Aurora Abad. She is extremely professional . We wanted to meet before the weddig and she found a way of scheduling the day we were able to. Madison was the one to write our Vows (which we loved) and Aurora perfectly translated them to Spanish. They explained clearly how to get our marriage license without us even asking. The day of the ceremony Aurora was there an hour before just in case we needed something , to start filling all paperwork needed, and also have the witnesses sign. The ceremony went smoothly because of her. I really don’t have anything bad to say about this team. Affordable prices. I’m truly happy with them and I definitely recommend them.

Absolutely excellent service and very accommodating. We chose to get married on the beach in Miami and Madison from Sunshine Weddings set up a beautiful table to showcase the picture frame for the sand ceremony. We chose the picture frame for our wedding photo which holds the sand in which we took turns pouring into the frame. It was an awesome experience to be married by someone so professional and kind. We also purchased the wine stem glasses that said Mrs. Kirk on one and Mr. Kirk on the other. Those wine glasses will be cherished til the end of our days. Madison even took the time to congratulate us again a few days later. I totally recommend Sunshine Weddings!

I am writing this review, to say thank you to Madison for helping to make our wedding day unforgettable.
We live in Italy and for various reasons, decided that we'd like an intimate ceremony, just the two of us with our son.
Straight away I got a good feeling from Madison. She's professional but laid back at the same time. In just in a couple of emails, she completely understood the kind of wedding we wanted and at quite short notice, which didn't faze her at all. Everything was possible.
We exchanged some background information, so Madison could write the vows and she got back to us a week later with a transcript of the ceremony.
Like most of us, I've been to quite a few weddings and thought I knew what to expect, but I was genuinely taken aback the content of the vows. They were perfect! There was nothing either of us wanted to add, or indeed take out and we both started to really look forward to our wedding the next month.
On the day, my bride was very emotional ( very Italian ) and later on told me that the ceremony expressed exactly how she felt about us. We had asked for the 'tying the not' addition to the wedding, with a nod to my celtic roots and that's a nice touch and momento.
The vows are also printed in a smart booklet which again is a great momento from the day.
I think we couldn't have wished for a better wedding. It was low key for sure, without our families, but intimate and it felt very special. That's down to Madison and I can't thank her enough.
Madison and her team also helped with the Apostille, required to make our marriage legal in Italy.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Barefoot to Elegant Weddings. Professional, friendly, efficient and memorable. Just great, thank you.

Madison was perfect for us. We were REALLY last minute and she worked with us patiently so we could have the perfect vows. We wanted to have non-denominational vows with some inclusions that were custom to us. She asked all of the right questions and when she sent it to us for review, we were so moved! On the day of, we were late and again, LOTS of patience and guidance on getting us and the wedding party to the altar. ALL of our guests loved the vows and some even asked for copies! Even now when speaking to some of our guests, they remember how moved they were by the vows! I HIGHLY recommend these guys, you will NOT be disappointed.

Madison did a wonderful job helping us plan our American/Indian fusion wedding ceremony. She gave us ideas and accommodated our own vows and readings. She was flexible but gave us just the right amount of guidance. She preformed it beautifully as well. I would highly recommend her and her company!

It was a pleasure working with Madison and Elaine! Thanks to their flexibility we held a lovely and intimate ceremony in the Enchanted Forest. Not your conventional wedding, but we were in good hands with the help and services that were offered. Elaine arrived on time, delivered an awesome vow exchange, and even squeezed in a last minute speech by our brother! Thanks to the ladies who made it possible, legit and magical.

We cannot speak highly enough of how awesome our officiant, Madison was for us.
Madison was prompt and professional, but also caring and kind.
She was so nice. She introduced herself to my wedding party while I was busy in the makeup chair.
She actually asked if I needed anything and also offered to take the groom and groomsmen their boutonnieres. She even pinned them on. Because our honeymoon was the very next day, Madison made sure our marriage license was validated and mailed back to us. (Wedding in Miami. Reside in Atlanta.) We were also a Wedding Vows keepsake. We received all of the loving care from a service we hired 11 days before our wedding. I am still amazed. Thank you Madison

Madison went above and beyond for our wedding. We filled out her very thought out questionnaire and she created personal beautiful and simplistic vows. She was great in everyway. I recommend her to everyone looking for meaningful vows that want their love story shared with little quirks in between.

We did our wedding with Elaine, she was awesome. We were able to do bilingual vows which were a plus for us. The vows provided were tailored to us and they were truly loving and memorable, I can tell that Elaine put forth a lot of thought. The price was great and Eliane was in constant contact with us when getting our feedback on the vows. She was early and helped me (the bride) to coordinate when I would be walking in according to the timing of the music. They are great and I highly recommend them.

Madison was absolutely wonderful from our first conversation, to writing the most beautiful and perfect vows to her sweet smile, presence and assistance on the day of! I couldn't have asked for a better officiant on our special day! I was a little nervous and Madison has such a calming demeanor, and did a quick verbal explanation right before the ceremony which just made it seem so easy, it truly helped make me feel calm!

Madison Pinder is the kindest, most caring officiant imaginable!! She reached out to Chris and I and asked us to tell her our story. She incorporated the sweetest details and there wasn't a dry eye in the house! She arrived to the venue early and left us a beautifully printed copy of the vows for us to cherish forever. She assisted us in getting our marriage license and mailed it out after the wedding. She really went above and beyond! I would recommend Madison to all brides!

Debbie , married on 12/10/2017

Our Granddaughter wanted a pre-cruise wedding in Florida. We didn't have a clue how to go about getting the marriage license, permits for a beach wedding or even what vendors would be able to decorate a beach. We found Barefoot to Elegant online, and spoke to Madison. She was amazing. she took care of everything and walked my Granddaughter through the marriage license process. She responded very quickly to my emails and made the process basically stress free. The wedding ceremony was beautiful. I couldn't think of 1 thing that I would have added to her speech or the vows.
I highly recommend this company Madison.

​

Chelsea , married on 12/10/2017

This was the best day of my life. Madison made it very special. She was amazing. I highly recommend!

 

William , married on 11/25/2017

We contacted Madison on short notice due to cancellation of our previous officiant and knew she was a great fit for us on our initial meet. She was very personable, professional and made us feel at ease. Madison wrote and presented a beautiful ceremony for us and worked with our venue and vendors to ensure everything went smoothly......we were extremely pleased.

​

Estee , married on 10/07/2017

Madison was on time, professional, and very responsive! WE GOT SO MANY COMPLIMENTS ON HER!! THe vows she wrote for us were perfect! She was well spoken and did an amazing job, I wouldn’t have changed a thing!! Thank you Madison :)

Jennifer , married on 09/30/2017

Madison was an amazing officiant she was very professional, on time, and made our ceremony very special.

 

Marjorie , married on 10/14/2017

Madison Pinder did a killer job crafting a beautiful, non-religious ceremony for our beach wedding. My fiance, our wedding party, and I are not emotional "cry it out" type people, but Madison's words had most of us in tears or almost in tears. The Unity Sand ceremony was fun and appropriate for a beach wedding. She was very easy to contact, and even helped book PCS events to do our gorgeous ceremony decor. Thank you for making our special day so perfect!

​

Eddie , married on 08/09/2017

Madison was the greatest!!! We're from out of state, and she guided us from step one.... she picked the perfect location on the beach, and is now part of our greatest memory of the perfect wedding. Madison is highly recommended.

Madison was kind, flexible and responsive. She contributed to the happiest and best day of our life. Also helped beyond basic services like taking photo from us.
I recommend her.

​

Janna , married on 06/03/2017

We had a wonderful experience with Madison Pinder from Barefoot! We were planning a wedding the the FL Keys from Ohio where we live and she was there for us every step of the way. She was extremely responsive (better than we were!) and wrote some really beautiful vows for us. I love the keepsake and her demeanor and presence was awesome and very "us". I would recommend working with Barefoot 100%!

From the first phone call to the last email, Madisson and Aurora were excellent. Very helpful, attentive and most of all friendly. Because of their professionalism and creativeness our nerves were put at ease. The wedding vows they put together was everything and more we could have wanted. Extremely happy and grateful that we found them. Our needs and expectations were beyond satisfied. Thank you!

Brian , married on 05/05/2017

Madison was great - we had a very simple wedding with only a couple of guests - she produced some lovely vows for the ceremony and everything worked perfectly.

​

Sherrie-Ann , married on 05/04/2017

Madison was amazingly helpful! Her vows were so beautiful and really reflected us as a couple. The audience laughed at all the right moments. We even had a Star Wars theme and she worked in "May the force be with you!" without it sounding cheesy! If I were to do it again, she would be my only choice!

​

Keely , married on 05/11/2017

We are from the UK and arranged all our wedding online. Madison was absolutely fantastic throughout. She was extremely helpful and friendly with all correspondence. On the day I cannot thank her enough she was wonderful with the family put everyone at ease and liased with the photographer to ensure it all ran smoothly. She had written the vows as we asked which were perfect. I couldn't have asked for better. Massively recommend! Thank you

​

Rachel , married on 04/15/2017

Frances , married on 03/24/2017

MADISON WAS WONDERFUL! We hired Madison Pinder for our wedding and she was very easy to work with. From the moment that I contacted her, she was always very accommodating and quick to respond to questions and emails. She wrote our vows and they were perfect! We had several people compliment on the wonderful job that she did. On the day of the wedding, she was on time and she made my husband and our ceremony was beautiful. Highly recommend her!

​

Joy , married on 04/01/2017

Madison was beyond amazing. From the minute we contacted her she was a pleasure to work with. She was quick to respond to my emails and was very helpful. When she sent us our vows to review I immediately fell in love. I read them over and over again. The day of our wedding she came to the hotel early to see if I needed any help. She then made sure to get the guests to their seats on time for our ceremony. When she read our vows it was like it was the first time I heard them although I had read hem more than a dozen times. Everyone complemented how nice the ceremony was and how amazing Madison was. I highly recommend her!

​

Dawn

Madison was a blessing to work with from day 1! Always responded to my emails quickly and answered my questions thoroughly! If she couldn't provide me with what I was looking for she knew exactly where to get what I wanted or needed and took care of it for me. Never sending me on a search for anything myself. I would recommend Madison and Barefoot Weddings 1000x's over!!!!

​

Tara , married on 10/16/2016

Wonderfully written spiritual vows

​

Amanda , married on 03/11/2017

We were married by Becky, and she was a wonderful officiant! She was extremely sweet and attentive to what we wanted out of our ceremony. She arrived on the wedding day with plenty of time to spare, so there were no worries about when she would arrive. She was also very easy to contact whenever I had a question. The ceremony was just beautiful.

​

Kimberly , married on 02/21/2017

I would highly recommend Madison Pinder, she went way above and beyond to make sure the renewal of our vows for our 30th Anniversary went as planned.

​

Marc , married on 01/17/2017

Deb and Madison did an amazing job for me and my husband. Our vows were beautifully written and Madison who preformed the ceremony is so beautiful, she enhanced all our wedding pictures by being in them. They were very helpful with obtaining the marriage license and filing it. I would highly recommend any couples to use Wedding by Deb. xoxo

Celisse , married on 02/03/2017

Love love love the vows that Madison wrote for our wedding. So fitting for us and so special. Thank you again!

​

Mikaela , married on 01/21/2017

Madison was a pleasure to work with. She took her time to get to know my fiancé and I in order to prepare our wedding vows to fit our love story. She took every idea/recommendation I gave her and made it come to life in the most beautiful ceremony. She arrived early and offered helping hands to tie up any loose ends. Highly recommend her!

​

Maria , married on 01/15/2017

Madison was an absolute pleasure to work with. She took the time to get to know my fiancé and myself and in the process, created some amazingly personalized vows. On the day of the actual ceremony, she even came to the rescue and helped my family do some last minute set up/detailing at the venue- minutes before the ceremony. Haha, for that and so much more, I am eternally grateful.
I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a great and trusted officiant.

​

Lisa , married on 12/31/2016

My partner and I decided to finally get married. We went to the courthouse to get our marriage license and we we just going to set up an appointment to go back and get married there. We were told that it would just be a "take a number" deli type of wedding. Whoever called our number once we got there, would marry us right over the counter! We both decided that we wanted just a little more than that! Since we had plans to be in Ft. Lauderdale on New Year's Eve, my partner said, "Too bad we can't get married on the beach!" That was a great idea but who would be available to marry us on such short notice, especially on New Year's Eve?? I went online, searching for officiants, and found 5 that I emailed. Out of those five, 2 emailed us back, and one was Madison.
After speaking to Madison and telling her that we were interested in a small, spur of the moment wedding, just the two of us, she said that she would be available and would love to officiate. Madison picked the perfect spot, right on the beach. She performed a beautiful ceremony, with perfectly written vows. Since we didn't have a photographer, Madison even agreed to take a few pictures for us! Madison went above and beyond for us, making our spur of the moment, New Year's Eve wedding perfect! It is a day that my partner and I will always remember and cherish! We are so happy that we decided NOT to just get married at the courthouse. I would definitely recommend Madison for anyone's wedding! You will not be disappointed!!

​

Maria , married on 12/19/2016

We arranged our wedding through Debra as we are based 10,000 miles away from Florida. She recommended the hotel, the wedding location and advised us on all the paperwork and legal requirements. We constantly felt that she was totally in control of the situation and helped to keep our prenuptial concerns to a minimum. We arrived in Florida, a little nervous, but everything Debra had advised us to do made the legal paperwork go very smoothly. On the day of the wedding, Debs colleague, Madison, officiated. Her understated, quiet, calm confidence put us completely at ease and her gentle suggestions led to the ceremony being exactly as we had hoped and it will be one that we will remember forever.

​

Robin , married on 11/04/2016

I don't really think there should be a choice I couldn't have asked for a better service that was done by Madison.. We were beyond happy with the outcome

​

Taylor - married 11/05/2016

Getting married? Have no idea how to write vows? Don't want to spend a ridiculous amount of money? Want an adorable keepsake of your vows? Madison worked diligently with a scatterbrained bride and a picky groom on a serious crunch time, resulting in a beautiful ceremony. And she's not afraid of rain!

​

Noreen - married 10/15/2016

Debra and Madison were very supportive and flexible with our wedding. It felt as if we were old friends.

​

Theresa - married 10/15/2016

I not only recommend this amazing group of officients, but I also thank them for an amazing service! They were helpful, professional, carrying, and worked with us every step of the way!

​

Madison was officiant for our beach wedding on June 25, 2016. She was an absolute delight and I'm so glad we chose them for our special day! The vows were amazingly written the staff was always professional and compassionate!!!

​

Lindsey - married 06/18/2016

They did an amazing job. I was getting married in four days and I didnt have anyone to marry us. They were able to make it happen. It was a beautiful ceremony. I couldnt have asked for anything better.

​

Laura - married 04/26/2016

We organised our ceremony all on line from London and from the initial email correspondence I had a great feeling about Barefoot to Elegant Weddings. Madison was our officiant and was so lovely and warm in personality, she even stepped in to take pictures when our photographer didnt arrive in time.
Would recommend

​

Monica - married 04/03/2016

Was very professional, easy to coordinate with, and my guests loved the ceremony timeframe. Was the perfect ceremony

​

Amy - married 11/11/2015

These folks are wonderful:). Warm and customer-oriented, would recommend to anyone!

 

Jessica - married 04/16/2016
It was amazing working with them. They helped us in everything we asked, Debra and Madison were always ready to solve any questions related to, not only the ceremony, but everything else as well.
When we first contacted them, we were clueless about how to plan or organize a wedding. They gave us directions in many ways so we could start the process of planning such a special day. They shared with us invaluable information without even knowing if we would end up working with them which thankfully we did.
They were kind, well informed and incredibly professional in their work. We would absolutely recommend, working with them.

Elizabeth - married 03/17/2016
Madison and Deb created the most beautiful vowels that were super appropriate to our lives and even included my husbands two children. The sand ceremony was beautiful as well!!
