    Made Our Intimate, Sunrise Beach Wedding Special

    We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful officiant than Barbara. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable and cared for. She took the time to learn our story and created the most beautiful, personal ceremony that felt so true to us. She even had our vows printed and ready for us on the day. Barbara went above and beyond to accommodate every request, including traveling to Miami Beach for our sunrise ceremony, braving the rain, and marrying us on a lifeguard stand. She was incredibly flexible, even patiently waiting for us to finish taking photos before heading back to sign our marriage license somewhere dry. Our wedding was incredibly intimate, with just my husband and me, but Barbara made it feel every bit as meaningful, special and full of love as we had imagined. She brought such warmth and familiarity to the experience, and we’re so grateful she was part of our day. We truly couldn’t recommend her more highly to any future bride and groom.

    Officiant

    We chose One Gal and a Wedding to officiate our ceremony and we couldn't have been happier with our decision. From start to finish, the communication was smooth and straightforward, making the planning process stress-free. She really understood what we wanted and delivered exactly that on our wedding day. The ceremony was beautiful and personal, and she had us and our guests feeling so connected to the moment. She did an excellent job bringing our vision to life, and it was just what we wanted for our ceremony. We're so grateful for her work and would absolutely recommend her to any couple looking for an officiant.

    Best officiant you could have

    Barbara was AMAZING she made sure everything was taken care of so me and my husband didn’t have to worry! She was attentive, responsive, and very heartfelt in creating our ceremony. I honestly was so flustered when my family member couldn’t officiate our wedding, and finding her was the best thing god could’ve of did for us because we didn’t have to worry about anything!

    Warm, Personal, and Truly Memorable Ceremony

    We are so grateful to have had her as our officiant. From the very beginning, she emphasized how important it was to make our ceremony personal and special, and she absolutely delivered. After reading our story, she created a heartfelt ceremony that truly reflected us as a couple. She was also incredibly understanding and flexible when we experienced some delays on our wedding day. She reassured us that she had reserved the entire day for us and never made us feel rushed, which meant so much during a stressful moment. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine care helped make our ceremony one of the most memorable parts of our wedding. We highly recommend her to any couple looking for an officiant who truly goes above and beyond.

I do not require premarital counseling but I think it is a good idea. So does the state of Florida. Take the course and they will wave the 3 day waiting period and can receive a discount on their marriage license fee. It is a 4 hour course, in person or on line. By request I will send couples a copy of What Every Couple Should Discuss Before Marriage. Great questions to discuss with each other in honest dialogue.
Since 2014
Yes I love it when couples participate!
Yes I do rehersals. They are included in the cost if done the day of the ceremony. I always arrive early to get a chance to meet the families and to discuss the layout and the order. I talk with the DJ or music provider and the photographer to make sure we are in sinc. This often precludes my needing to be at a formal rehersal but I am always happy to attend if requested.
Yes happy to make the ceremony fresh and like new. If it's a secret that you are already married then it's "mums the word" as they say, but if everyone knows then its a party! You will receive a nice certificate from me with the date of the ceremony as well!
