We interviewed several to officiate our wedding and we found an amazing gem. Leigh Ann Phillips-Knope gave us each a questionnaire which we made us dig deep into our relationship. She then took our answers and crafted a very personalized ceremony which we then got to review. We had so many compliments at the wedding about the ceremony. Her words were touching and memorable. We can't say enough good things about this company.

I never imagined that our decision to work with Roots of Change would result in a lifelong connection with an amazing person! We highly recommend Leigh Ann to anyone looking for a personal and inspiring ceremony!

When searching for someone to conduct our wedding, it was very important to us that the ceremony was unique and reflected our personalities. Too often we've attended ceremonies that were dull and scripted, and we promised ourselves and our guests this wouldn't be the case.

Roots of Change was a perfect match for us, and our expectations were exceeded in every way possible! The process that Leigh Ann used to design our one-of-a-kind ceremony is extremely creative and expressed us and all of our emotions perfectly. Not only did she create our individual love story, but she told it from both of our perspectives, which allowed our family and friends the opportunity to fully understand our love. Leigh Ann was a true partner in planning our special day and we could not have asked for a better person to share this special time with!

We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful or loving person to celebrate our nuptials! On the day of our ceremony, Leigh Ann was ahead of schedule every step of the way and was a major contributor in making it the best day of our lives. Our friends and family had so many compliments about the ceremony and of both Leigh Ann’s words and professionalism. The questions she had us respond to in preparation for our ceremony were comprehensive and even made us feel closer to each other as we reflected on our relationship leading up to the wedding. Originally, when we found Leigh Ann, we were living in Texas (and Leigh Ann in Michigan), and we had a great feeling about her solely based on our interactions by phone and email. As our ceremony date approached, and we were finally able to meeting Leigh Ann in person, we had such a warm feeling and knew that we had chosen the perfect officiant for our non-traditional ceremony!
