Ouch. My condolences to anyone dealing with this situation…. I lived close to this venue while waiting for my home to be built, this is pretty shocking. Sad.😞

The sweetest testimonial regarding ceremony development and officiant coaching services (these two and their officiant, Randy, were an absolute delight ❤️):

“My husband and I were married on October 7th, 2023 and we hired Rev. Samantha to write our entire wedding ceremony. We highly recommend her services to anyone in need of ceremony writing or officiant coaching!

We wanted our close friend to officiate our marriage, but he had only officiated 1 wedding prior to ours and we wanted to make sure our he felt comfortable and prepared. Rev. Samantha met with us to discuss what type of ceremony we wanted. We were looking for something modern and non-religious, and she provided example ceremonies to help us determine what we wanted. She then crafted a beautiful, moving ceremony script that we fell in love with. She incorporated readings that we requested and tailored the script to our needs. The ceremony script she wrote for us was entirely perfect and included all the proper cues so that our officiant could confidently execute the ceremony!

Beyond the incredible script she wrote for us, Rev. Samantha was able to offer helpful suggestions, tips, and advice for us as bride and groom. She also provided a coaching session prior to the wedding so we could run through the script with her and our officiant. All of this was done remotely as we were in different parts of the state! We were blown away with Rev. Samantha’s professionalism, experience, and guidance throughout the entire process. Our guests commented on how touching the ceremony was and there was not a dry eye in the house. We cannot thank Rev. Samantha enough for her contributions to our perfect wedding day!” - Mrs. Laura Morris
