Time management

She overslept and was 30 minutes late.
Hair looked like it was slept on.

Short & Sweet

Nickola was great. My husband and I were looking for someone who was open to doing a non-traditional, non-religious ceremony and would basically take the reins on the vows. She offered us something simple or more detailed and I told her short is what we are looking for. We wanted to get straight to the party with our friends and family. We hate long ceremonies and we were praised by our guest that the ceremony was short and sweet. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they have been too. I would definitely recommend her to a friend. Thank you, Nickola!

Perfect Officiant for a Perfect Day

From the very beginning, she was incredibly informative, communicative, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony special. She guided us through the entire process with clarity and care, making sure we felt confident and comfortable every step of the way. On the big day, she delivered a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony that perfectly captured our story and the tone we were hoping for.

Nice simple ceremony

Nickola was very nice and it was a nice, simple ceremony. The only issue we had was with communication beforehand.

What to expect

As an officiant for your wedding ceremony you can expect an open minded, respectful and personal experience when working with me. The details can be just how you want them for your special day. Non-denominational ceremonies can be customized to include as much or as little religious influence as you desire. I am a legally ordained minister through the Universal Life Church, I recently recertified after completing more online courses designed with an open minded, inclusive approach. I was originally ordained in 1999. Customizable ceremonies and vows can be prearranged to set your mind at ease. Rehearsal ceremonies can be scheduled as well.
