    Wonderful Experience with Katrina!!

    Working with Katrina was amazing. From the start she made us feel at ease with the process of creating our ceremony. Her process is so streamlined, and our ceremony was absolutely incredible! Highly recommend Katrina to be your officiant!

    Not enough words to express our gratitude...

    I don't think I can imagine a more perfect ceremony, and that's entirely due to having Katrina as our officiant. From the first stages of planning our vows she gave us easy-to-follow steps, advice, and outlines, which made the process less daunting. Then, in the weeks leading up to the ceremony, she was hands-on and helpful. Katrina had an incredible knack for recognizing where we might need a little assistance, and where we needed freedom to choose our own words and moments within the ceremony. "Thank you" isn't enough to express our gratitude, or how happy we will be in the years to come with the memories Katrina helped us create.

    Made our wedding truly PERFECT

    Katrina made us feel so comfortable during the whole ceremony process! She truly was so amazing to work with. She patiently walked us through the entire ceremony and answered our questions and gave us so many great tips. She created a beautiful love story for us and you would have thought she knew us for years. Don’t hesitate to book her, she is amazing!

    Perfect Officiant for Our Special Day

    Our wedding officiant exceeded all our expectations from start to finish! From the moment we began planning, she was there to guide us every step of the way. She provided invaluable insights into the ceremony process, offered thoughtful advice and feedback, and truly took the time to understand us as a couple.

    She met with us in person, listened to our story, and turned it into a beautifully written narrative that made our ceremony feel so personal and unique. Her help with our vows was incredible, giving us the confidence to express our feelings in a heartfelt way.

    On our big day, she brought everything together seamlessly, creating a ceremony that was meaningful, intimate, and perfectly us. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant to help us start our married life together. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about making your day special!

    Miracle Worker!

    Katrina is a miracle worker. We were very late with getting an officiant and luckily enough for us Katrina was free on our weekend. From the first consultation we felt instantly relieved because what she said about marriage and relationships really resonated with us. Even with our extremely narrow timeline, Katrina always brought a positive attitude and helped us craft a ceremony that was uniquely ours. We also really valued her experience and the many tips she shared that helped everything run smoothly. Our wedding went off perfectly and so many people came to tell us how we had the most beautiful and heartfelt ceremony they have ever been to! All that praise goes to Katrina who made all the magic happen!!!

    Katrina made our day personal and special

    Katrina is a ceremony writing wizard. My husband and I met online so our meet cute wasn't too terribly romantic or interesting, or so we thought. She met with us, asked us questions and then crafted a ceremony that brought tears to my eyes. Luckily since I got to hear it before the wedding I didn't mess up my makeup on the day though!

    Do not look further!

    Katrina did a phenomenal job capturing our story and providing a magical touch to our ceremony. Multiple guests came up to us asking about Katrina because they were wow'd by her beautiful and calming voice, but also the way she portrayed the message of love powerfully. Most importantly, Katrina helped my wife and I create the messaging of our story and vows the way we wanted, and gave great advice for balancing our own wishes with the type of things our parents/grandparents would like to hear. Could not recommend her enough!

    It's worth mentioning that Katrina was the officiant for not only our wedding, but my sister-in-law's as well, which means she helped both daughters in the family tie the knot!

    Thanks for everything Katrina!!

    Highly complimented ceremony!

    Katrina is awesome! She is super easy to work with and was very communicative in the months leading up to our wedding. She has an extensive cache of ceremony materials she's collected, which made it super easy for us to shape our ceremony just how we wanted it. Several of our guests commented on how moving the ceremony was, despite the fact that we didn't include any religious texts or traditional readings - it was all because Katrina is a great writer and came super prepared! We can't recommend her enough!

    Katrina is AMAZING!

    only is she an incredible officiant but also just an incredible person. Katrina walked us through the process of our ceremony so seamlessly and we got to pick just about whatever we wanted to make our ceremony our own. Katrina met with us, listened to us and the history of our relationship and created the most beautiful story that we will cherish forever. Our guests wouldn’t stop telling us how much they absolutely loved the ceremony and just how heartfelt and touching it was. Katrina cultivated such emotion and love that we will cherish forever. She really made our wedding day one to never forget!

    Amazing. Simply put.

    Katrina is amazing. Simply put. She gave us all the resources to design our ceremony and then met with us in person to talk about our story. This was so special. We really got to know Katrina and reflect on our relationship. After this hour long meeting she spent about 10 minutes and put together a rough draft of how she would tell our story. It was amazing- to see her put together something so quickly. After this meeting she gave us a rough draft of the whole ceremony and we could read through it. She was able to convey our story in such a special way. She was a great resource for how we wanted to make our ceremony experience. This was my favorite part of our wedding day! I cannot recommend her enough.

    Comfortable, easy

    Katrina was the perfect fit for our intimate wedding ceremony! We live about 5 hours from Austin so we met with her via zoom to discuss how we wanted our wedding to look and feel. She helped us to customize our ceremony so that it was a perfect representation of our relationship!

    Personalized experience that left us feeling like we have known Katrina for years! She takes the time to really invest in you as a couple*

    KATRINA!! What can we even say... For Christian and I, you were PERFECT! We are still in awe of the experience we had building our ceremony with you. Your thought provoking, emotion-filled, and individualized approach to creating our wedding ceremonies truly shows you are doing what you should be doing in this life. You are a gift!

    Regardless of the type of ceremony requested, you are so open and honest about how to create the memory and moment the couple is requesting. You managed my extrovert personality and Christian's introvert, bringing out who we really are so that our families and friends could recognize the deep love and respect we have for one another. We felt seen on the most important day of our lives as a couple. We thank you for this!

    Spoken Heart Ceremonies with Katrina Baecht's reply:

    Christian & Carrie---I cannot thank you enough for these kind words. It brought tears to my eyes! I am passionate about what I do and when I'm able to convey that to my couples---well, it's the best feeling in the world! Thank you, again!

    Perfect Match

    From the moment we met Katrina, we knew she’d be the one to marry us; it just felt right.

    Katrina knew exactly how to get us to open up and discuss our love for each other and how we want the ceremony to run. Her documents were super helpful and she worked with our family to get a surprise reading in the mix.

    Everything about working with Katrina was seamless and she really listened to us. Her ability to write our love story working a matter of minutes - and be spot on - was an incredible experience.

    Katrina even went above & beyond on the day to ensure a sentimental piece (that was out of her scope) was done properly.

    Hands down the best officiant we could have asked for. 5 stars!!

    Spoken Heart Ceremonies with Katrina Baecht's reply:

    Kristan--thank you so much for the kind words! It means the world to me! I am so happy I was able to tell your story & help everything go smoothly. Seeing the joy on your faces was incredible!

    Katrina was fantastic!

    Katrina is a lovely person and did a wonderful job! Before picking her as our wedding officiant she met with us over video call and talked through what we might want our ceremony to look like. She was always prompt and responsive in our communications. The way she crafts the ceremony is very organized and guided, and this reduced stress. For both the rehearsal and ceremony she arrived early and ensured things ran smoothly. She even helped with pinning boutonnieres on jackets!

    We loved the ceremony, and our wedding guests thought it was sweet and that Katrina did a fantastic job. We'd love to work with her again if we renewed our vows and we recommend her to friends.

    She's a hero

    Hey World!

    My wife and I were at a loss in terms of what our actual ceremony and vows should be. Katrina was able to walk us a through her strategies for writing ceremonies and she created something truly beautiful and unique to us. We cannot understate how much Katrina's experience & talent meant to us. She learned our history as a couple (warts and all) and wrote our story in a way that was amazing when read aloud at the ceremony but that wasn't the 1/2 of it. Her story of our relationship was therapeutic and a gift we'll have and cherish forever.
    We recommend everyone use Katrina for their wedding. She's worth twice what she charges. Let your friends and family give a toast, but put the ceremony in the hands of a professional.

    Flexible, Fun, & Respectful

    We used Katrina for a last minute elopement and she was great - flexible, communicative, supportive, and really made the ceremony what we wanted (which was non-traditional). She really seemed to care and guide us through the process.

    100% Reccommend

    I heard about her from a friend and so glad I went with her. I love that we were able to personalize our ceremony and vows. She was very helpful with the process after the ceremony (advice on getting official copies of marriage license, etc...). She also sent a physical copy of our vows as a keepsake as well as an anniversary ceremony/vows for future use. She goes above and beyond!

    Tremendous officiant

    Katrina (Spoken Heart Ceremonies) did an absolutely incredible job as our officiant. Our ceremony absolutely perfect. We could not have been happier with the ceremony she helped us build, which was very much our own and reflected who we are as a couple, while also being official and professional. We have received more compliments about our ceremony than any other part of our wedding, and hiring Katrina was the single best choice we made while planning it. We literally cannot recommend Katrina highly enough and will be forever grateful to her for helping to make our wedding ceremony perfect.

    Beautiful and personal ceremony!

    Katrina is an amazing officiant! She was able to take our poorly told love story and turn it into a beautiful and moving ceremony. Guests loved to tell us after how beautiful the ceremony was and how wonderful Katrina was. Katrina made the whole process very personal for the both of us - and even recommended we do the wine box ceremony - that we can't wait to incorporate into our anniversary every year.
