" Steve and I just wanted to send a note to once again thank you for all you have done for us, including officiating our wedding. You were truly exactly the person we were searching for and we are so grateful to have connected with you.

All of our guests raved about you. We appreciated your humour and little add-ins to our ceremony - it's like you know us too well!! :) You're definitely our kind of person.

You truly made our ceremony memorable and fun, and I don't think that is something everyone is able to say about their wedding ceremony!!! "

Deb is highly experienced, a wealth of knowledge and gave us confident about our wedding day and how the ceremony would go. Rev.

"Hi Rev. Deborah, Thank you for doing such a wonderful job at our wedding. Your warmth and kind heart made our ceremony so much more special and from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for doing an amazing job. You made our day so wonderful and we appreciate your loving words, we couldn't have picked a better officiant to perform our ceremony. The sparkle in your eyes and the kindness of your voice put us both at ease and we received nothing but compliments about the wonderful ceremony. Thank you again"

~ Christopher & Amanda

" Thank you so much for what you did for Amanda & Zeus’ wedding this past September (2015). You created such an amazing, warm, loving, happy wedding ceremony which was unique ~ all for this beautiful couple. We look forward to the possibility of working with you again one day."

~ Brent & Patti Pilgrim of brentandpattiphotography

" I would recommend Deborah to every future bride-to-be. After having "re-considered" the officiant we originally hired, we reached out to Deborah to see if she would be available for our big day. Thankfully she was and within 2 minutes of meeting her/our initial consultation, we knew we had made the right choice. She is incredibly caring, funny and makes even the most timid of couples (us) feel comfortable saying their vows in front of an audience of people. She truly cares about her customers and treats everyone with the one-on-one attention that is rare to non-existent these days. I can't thank her enough for the level of service and professionalism she displayed and for making sure our wedding day was just as we imagined."

" I first met Deborah when she married my sister and her husband 5 years prior to my wedding. She was also recommended by my venue. She is very personable, helpful and adds a touch of fun to the ceremony. We had a non-denominational ceremony of which she provided lots of materials and ideas for my husband and I to write our own vows. Everyone at our ceremony really enjoyed Deborah and so did we. We would highly recommend Deborah for your wedding! "

~ Nicole

"It was an absolute pleasure working with Rev. Deb. She helped us put together a beautiful ceremony and also guided us through all the paperwork. On our wedding day, she did a wonderful job and we have had countless guests tell us how much they enjoyed the ceremony. I can't recommend her enough!"

~ Deidre

" Deborah Coleman was an absolute joy to work with -- I couldn't imagine finding a better wedding officiant! In addition to having a great system which allowed us to personalize our wedding ceremony, our meetings (and emails) with her were extremely helpful as she made lots of great suggestions based on her wealth of experience. During the wedding, she was a wonderful speaker, provided lots of guidance to us, and was a true calming force. I could not be happier with our decision - she is wonderful! "

~ Valerie

" Rev. Deb was great to work with. She was able to provide great ceremony suggestions at our first meeting, and then met with us once again to review the final ceremony expectations. Her experience and insight were extremely helpful in making everything run smoothly.

The day of the wedding, Rev. Deb was everything we expected, well spoken, and extremely helpful with subtle hints and suggestions to keep everything on track."

WOW! When my husband and I met Rev. Deb we knew right away we found our minister, we hired her on the spot, the only requests we had were two of them.

1) Take care of Jeff as he easily gets nervous, if she hadn't done that, we probably would have had a much different day than we had.

2) No long service please. Yes, we thought we would have a short service but we were worried our service would be too long, again we were thrilled we only had a twenty-minute service.

We can't say enough great things about Rev. Deb seeing as she was more a friend to us than a minster. We were thrilled with Rev. Deb and would highly recommend her in a second. We hope to utilize her services again.

Thanks again, "

~ Jeff and Laura Taylor

“Dear Rev. Deborah Coleman:

I just wanted to thank-you for performing such a spectacular service on our special day. From the moment I spoke with you at the bridal show, I knew you were that special someone, that would just make our day that much more special. Your kind smile and your spunky personality kept everyone laughing and focused on Michael and me. We still get compliments to this day on how wonderful you were, and how much you light up a room with love. We have recommended you to everyone we know. You are truly amazing. You helped out so much when it came to the foreign divorce if it had not been for your calming ways and positive personality I think I would have ripped my hear out. THANK-YOU again! "
