I want to thank you and Tom so very much for making our wedding a special one. A wonderful, peaceful time was had by one and all. We could not have asked for a better ceremony. I felt like I found an Angel at a very hectic time. Edie was thrilled and very pleased with the entire service as was I. Take good care of yourselves and I cannot wait to tell everyone how wonderful this experience was from beginning to end. You both are very special people. Be blessed.

Where do I even start????

I wanted to comment on the level of service we received from Patricia Painter. My husband and I are in an interracial couple, and I was raised Catholic while he was raised as a Jehovah Witness. We currently belong to a nondenominational church, and didn’t know what direction we would take in finding an officiant when we were to get married. We are both very spiritual people who love each other more then anything else in this world, and that is what we wanted to focus on.

We were referred to Patricia from our florist, and the minute we met with her, we knew she would be perfect for what we wanted. She had us fill out a questionnaire, and asked us all about our relationship, including how we met, what type of relationship we have with our families, and most importantly, what our expectations and desires were in selecting an officiant.

We wanted to give her a deposit right then and there, but she asked that we go home and discuss it to make sure we were certain. We booked her immediately! From the questionnaire, she designed a ceremony that was everything we wanted. It included all the special things that meant the most to us like thanking our parents, recognizing those that could not be there, and focusing most on our love. We reviewed the ceremony, and both cried! There was not one thing we changed, and it was as if she knew us our whole lives. We did ask to write out own vows, which we did, as well as have my husband’s sister read a poem, and whatever it was that we felt in our hearts, Patricia encouraged us
to do.

Patricia was a blessing to us in so many ways, and there in no other person we could have had as our officiant that could have made the day any more beautiful!!!!

Patricia,
I just had to send a thank you for the wonderful job you did at our wedding. So many people have since come up to me and have asked “who was your minister, she was just great.” We hope you enjoyed the festivities. It was a wonderful day in part because of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
