Charleston Intimate Ceremonies

07/20/2024

I am feeling the need to put this out there, when you trust me to be your officiant you can be sure that I am real, that my reviews are real - 100% real. I would never dream of pretending to do weddings in a different location and post phony reviews. I have been doing this for 10 years and in and around Charleston (I did go to Beaufort once!) and I am always happy to chat with anyone about their wedding plans. I want to say thank you to everyone who has taken the time to review me - real couples - real reviews!

Bridgette and Padraig are married! We had to wait a few minutes for a passing storm and then the sun came out for their sweet ceremony, just the two of them in the park.

Occasionally I get couples wanting to renew their vows, I heard from a very nice lady who wanted to do this on July 1st. We set up a phone chat to go over the details and she told me that they have been doing this every year for their 10 years of marriage, they go someplace new to explore with their two cute daughters. She didn't want to know what I was going to say, they wanted it be a surprise. I loved meeting them and thought this was a very sweet tradition!

I must say... its very nice to get a review from a photographer who you collaborated with on a stunning wedding back in April. I loved Elise's friendly vibe and would be thrilled to work with her again! She is based in Michigan, but loves to travel to Charleston.

My very first couple of 2024 - Kate and Joseph eloped on 1/2/2024. They recently moved to SC and chose my simple signing ceremony in the park. Kate was so kind to write me a review, that means so much to me!

"Cori provided a perfect intimate service for Joe and I. As this was not the first time being married for either of us, we wanted something simple but meaningful. The vows were perfect, the setting was great, and Cori made it special! Thank you so much!"

I had the honor of uniting 223 couples in matrimony in 2023! It fills my heart with joy to see so much love and happiness. I want to thank all of my wonderful couples for this incredible journey! Looking ahead to 2024 I can't wait to see what the future holds for Charleston Intimate Ceremonies.
