Best Ceremony

Bonnie did a wonderful job officiating our ceremony. We had so many guests tell us our ceremony was the best they had ever attended.

Even more, our ceremony will be something that will stick in our minds forever. Her service was the perfect balance of tears and laughter. She really got to know us as a couple and family and that shined throughout the ceremony. It was everything I hoped it would be and more.

EVERYBODY said "Best wedding ceremony I've ever been to!!!"

When planning my daughters wedding, there were so many decisions to make. Hiring Bonnie Scott to officiate was definitely one of the BEST decisions we made. She made the ceremony so special and personal, focusing on the couples' love story and union. She knew details about their relationship and her father and I didn't know. The most surprising part was although the ceremony was a "real" ceremony, she also made it fun and funny. My husband and I said the next day, "Bonnie set the tone for the whole evening". Our daughter's wedding was simply put, one of the best days of our lives and Bonnie was a huge part of that.
I can not recommend her highly enough.

Amazing Experience! Highly Recommend.

Bonnie is a truly exceptional wedding officiant! Her ability to personalize our ceremony with such care and attention to detail was remarkable. She took the time to understand us, asking insightful questions that allowed her to craft a ceremony that was both unique and reflective of our journey together. Her friendly demeanor and professionalism made her a joy to work with, putting us at ease during what can be a stressful time. Bonnie’s talent for weaving humor and heartfelt sentiment into her speech created a memorable experience not only for us but also for all in attendance. Her knack for capturing the essence of our relationship and incorporating those special nuances into the ceremony speaks volumes of her dedication to her role. Bonnie is the perfect choice for anyone who wants a ceremony that is heartfelt, unique, and truly unforgettable!
