Absolutely spectacular

We went with Aretha for both officiating and coordination. Aretha is in one word, spectacular! She knows that I am a perfectionist and am a very involved groom (unlike most), but she did everything we asked for and so much more. It wasn’t just the service she provided. She became part of our family. Everyone loved her, not just my wife and I. I can’t express this anymore, if you go with Aretha Gaskin you are making one amazing decision that will truly upgrade the most important day of your life! From the personalized touch to our ceremony, to the coordination, and let’s not forget about the countless calls early in the morning and late at night where she was simply calming us down. Aretha will be a part of our lives forever now and we have many friends that have already started working with her based on the amazing effort she put in for us. Go with Aretha Gaskin! She is worth it, trust me!

Best wedding ever

Wow! I’m not one to usually be at a loss for words but I must say surprisingly I am. Aretha is so much more than what I expected in an Officiant and a Wedding Coordinator. She’s a BOSS!! Aretha, you single handedly made my wedding more than a dream come true. I didn’t have to worry about anything because you literally had everything under control. I loved everything about my wedding. The custom ceremony put the icing on the cake. If I had to give you a numerical rating, I would give you a 1000/10 because that’s exactly what you deserve! To all of the future brides and grooms you need to book your wedding with Aretha Gaskin, she goes above and beyond to make sure your special day is seamless and perfect. Aretha is more than just my Wedding Officiant and Coordinator, she is now a part of my Family. Aretha I love you so much thank you again!

Professional, Calming, Knowledgeable

Working with Aretha was an absolute pleasure from creating a ceremony that was beyond beautiful to Day of Coordination services. We were confident that she would make our day special. From our first phone call and each additional along with follow ups and check in emails, Aretha was always responsive, professional, and helpful. A heartfelt THANK YOU.
