Great services!

We had a great ceremony. We had the Native American ceremony as I'm a tribal member marrying an agnostic so we did not want too religious. Everything went great.

Our Ceremony turned out great!

We hired Ancestors Healing about 2 months before our wedding. With all the storms & covid it made communication a little difficult. We received examples of different scripts and were able to pick through them to find the one we wanted. Which we liked because we are not religious and wanted to make sure there was something that reflected that. When we first hired Ancestors Healing we were under the impression that we were getting Jorge for our officiant but about a week or two before the wedding we were informed that Sheri was going to be our officiant. This wasn't a problem for us, but it did throw us off a little. Sheri did good during our ceremony, we appreciate that she chose not to wear a mask. It was easy to hear her and it made our pictures a lot better. She did not come to our rehearsal, so when she got there on Saturday (1/2 hour before ceremony), she asked my mom to run through things with her, my mom didn't know a few things and called me, so that I could explain. The ceremony went smooth, except me & the groom signed our names in the wrong spots. Our marriage certificate was sent back to us to be resigned. Ancestors Healing was quick to respond and Sheri was really flexible on how to fix it. We are thankful that she met me on a day that I had available and resigned it for us. We have received our marriage license & are officially married. It was a Beautiful Day and we are grateful for Sheri from Ancestors Healing.
