Katherine Sent on 10/11/2023you won’t regret having any of Mrs. Kristis team!!
Mr. Marc was our officiant and he exceeded all expectations!! He dealt with my requests with no hesitation!! Mrs. Kristi was also amazing reaching out throughout the whole process to make sure everything was going to go smoothly and it did! We asked all our guests to be our something blue and Mr. Marc came in a blue suit to fit our theme!!! They went above and beyond!!!Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Katherine,
I cannot tell you how happy I am that we were able to help make one of the most important days of your life extra special! Marc said your wedding was beautiful and he was honored to be a part.
I was going to give Marc some extra "points" for wearing a dark suit outside during a south Louisiana summer! If that doesn't prove his dedication, what could? LOL
All the Best,

Jacob Sent on 12/06/2023A wonderful experience
I was searching for a bilingual officiant for our wedding, as my wife is from Guatemala and speaks hardly any English. Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates delivered. Kristi and Edgar did an amazing job and made us very comfortable and relaxed throughout the ceremony. Kristi was amazing help, keeping in touch throughout all of the planning process, making it super stress free.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Hi Jacob! Edgar and I were so pleased that the stars all aligned and everything turned out as close to perfect as we can get! We believe that both being able to marry the one you love AND understanding the ceremony are basic human rights.
And we loved meeting your photographer who we added to our preferred vendors list.
Thank you SO VERY MUCH!!
Best,

Wow! Such a great experience!
I first contacted Kristi to do our officiating and she was great to talk to. She went above and beyond to help me get the perfect place to do our ceremony and helped me iron out any possible issues that could arise.
Our officiant was Melanie and she was absolutely wonderful! She tailored our ceremony verbiage to fit our preference and it was perfect! She is so sweet and she radiates a happiness that flows out with her words, making it an even more special experience. We loved her!
I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I would definitely recommend them!
Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Cassie,
You were so much fun to work with! We love it when people from out of town choose our quirky little city for their weddings. We truly enjoy going that extra mile and hope to surpass your expectations!
Melanie is wonderful and I knew you all would hit it off.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review. We hope you have decades of beautiful memories. I'll pass on your review to Melanie. If any questions pop up, please do not hesitate to get in touch!
All the Best,
Kristi Jarrett

Beautiful Elopement
Kristi and Melanie made our day exactly how we wanted it. They made it easy and stress free. Coming from out of town, they helped us find the perfect spot. Melanie called and talked to us a couple weeks before, just to get to know us. Melanie also wrote a beautiful ceremony for us, that fit us perfectly. We couldn’t have asked for any better officiants.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Kane,
I knew you would love Melanie. She is such a great person and her on stage artistic side shows when she officiated. Melanie was honored to be there for you. Thank you for choosing us!
Best,

Brad Z. Sent on 05/05/2023Vow renewal
My conversation with Kristi is why I hired them. I was unaware of so many options for a renewal service. So glad I used this serviceCeremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Hi Brad!
This is one of the reasons I love what I do. When people have their weddings outside of a church or courthouse, you have so much freedom! Many people don't realize that we do religious weddings regularly.....we can make it traditional or unique. We follow the guide that our clients give us....not many rules!
I'm so glad we were able to help make your vow renewal special. Here's to a lifetime of wonderful memories and many more to come!
Thank You!

Melody A. Sent on 05/05/2023Kristi is amazing
We both loved the ceremony that Kristi did for our wedding. She took something from each of us and our family's wiccan and Christian beliefs and put it together so beautifully! We were worried about how different everything was (as far as our beliefs and rituals are) and how our family's would handle it but the way she executed it was perfect. She made the handfasting rope and gave us copies of the ceremony script to keep!
1000000/10!!!Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Awww.....Melody.....you gave me the warm fuzzies!! Thank you so much. I absolutely LOVED writing your script and officiating your wedding...I could put those anthropology skills to good use. You will love this....(you might recognize someone!). https://www.rocknrollbride.com/2023/05/a-witchy-hallowedding-in-new-orleans/. -

Great experience
Kristi got us booked on a fairly late notice for our small elopement! She went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and her assistants that came as witnesses were fabulous as well! We were only in town for a couple of days but she made sure we had everything taken care of and was able to go home with our marriage certificate in hand. She’s very caring and love what she does!Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Danielle,
You have no idea how thankful we are that you took time out of your busy day to write this lovely review for us.
My record for fastest wedding(several years ago....I don't like to make a habit of hurrying through everything unless, of course, there is a pressing reason for it, as was the case for this couple)....starting time was when the client called me trying to find an available officiant...end time was when I pronounced them married!
The entire process only took a bit less than 90 minutes total, but we were still able to write a personalized script, my daughter took photos, and it was lovely!
You are so correct that we truly care about all of our clients and any day I wake up and have a wedding ahead is a GREAT day!. Our team works together so well and we are always willing to work together to make sure our clients receive the best experiences possible. Of course, we are human and occasionally make mistakes.....but we use them as learning opportunities so that we won't make the same blunder twice. Of course, your day was beautiful (no t-storms as had been predicted).....it was as good (maybe even a little better? ;) , given time constraints, etc.
But again, I was able to write you a fully personalized, unique ceremony and even threw in a bit of spontaneity to keep everyone on their toes.
I hope the kids had fun with the Sand Ceremony and didn't make too much of a mess! If you think about it, I'd love to see a photo of it in its finished state. Every one...although similar....takes on a life, personality and likeness that reflects the loving family who created it.
Take care...hugs and kisses to everyone.....even the little hitchhiker hanging out on your belly!
If you need anything, we are here!
Love,
Kristi Jarrett -

NOLA Elopement
Hiring Kristi for our NOLA elopement was the best decision we did. We were married at the Tree of Life on 12/23/22. Unfortunately, it so happened to be the day after Louisiana got a massive cold front that blocked a lot of roads.
Kristi was very transparent about the closures and called me the night before to reassure me that she had a backup plan in case she couldn’t make it into town.
We got married by Brandon and he did everything he could to make our day special.
I was so appreciated of what Kristi and Brandon did for us.
I would highly recommend hiring Ceremonies by Kristi! The communication throughout the entire process was fantastic and Kristi and her associates are incredibly kind people.
Thank you Kristi and Brandon!Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Hi Elizabeth!
I remember well. I lived up north for most of my life and learned to drive in a blizzard in Washington DC. So I have no problem driving in ice and snow as long as the snow isn’t higher than my car!
But down here, if there’s even a RUMOR that the temp could be in the 30’s, everything closes (including the Causeway, which is how us North shore folks get to the South shore). This is why we worked so hard to make sure we had top notch officiants on BOTH sides of the Causeway.
The local governments also don’t have salt trucks and snow plows because we don’t get weather like that enough to make the investment worth it.
I’m just glad we were able to get you married, even if it was a bit chilly!
All the Best,
Kristi Jarrett -

Excellent officiant! We are so happy to have found Kristi! She made our day special, unique, personalized, and fun. Very easy to work with and very kind.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Thank you so much Holly! It was an absolute pleasure to work with the two of you.....and the neighbors!

Gail Sent on 11/23/2022So personable, funny and reliable
Kristi was amazing as our officiant. She reached out anytime she had any questions about the ceremony. She’s witty and made our guests laugh which is a HUGE plus in our book. She helped personalize our ceremony and definitely put my nerves at ease. Would recommend again and again.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Thank You, Gail! It was my pleasure! I love when couples and their guests enjoy a bit of comedy in their ceremonies. It's hard to be anxious when you are laughing, right?
Hugs,

Regina G. Sent on 11/23/2022Easy & Helpful
Ceremonies by Kristi was easy to schedule, very affordable, and professional. Katherine did an amazing job on our ceremony and was a huge help when writing our vows. She also was available pretty much anytime for questions. Huge help with editing ceremony and made us feel very confident in our decisions! As well as a beautiful bag and keepsake marriage certificate, plus the ceremony script she read from.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Hi Regina!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Katherine is a gem and she truly LOVES being an officiant. I will pass along your comments. And we are so glad you are enjoying the extra little “goodies”!
Cheers, Kristi -

Sherrice B. Sent on 05/06/2023Awesome experience
Our guy was Mark. He’s funny and down to Earth. He stayed making us laugh. He had forgot our sand which was disappointing but, luckily we were able to call him way before he got to the venue so crisis averted. I understand they are human. If sand wasn’t able to be gotten we would’ve just did a candle ceremony. We always have a backup plan. Great company and affordable pricing. Fast responding as well. Everyone is nice and informative. You get to choose whether you’d prefer male or female. I highly recommend.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Sherrice, You all looked like you were having a BLAST! Isn’t it wonderful , instead of anxiety tears, having tears of laughter and joy for one of the most important days of your life? I’m so happy Marc was able to help with that. He still talks about how much fun your wedding was!
And the sand ceremony….you can blame that on me. I had everything for it packed into a box in my attic….and I was overseas during your wedding. So Marc had no way of getting the supplies out of my house. If you would still like to do one, give me a call and we’ll make it happen, anytime!! 317-627-0702

Truly Amazing
Ceremonies by Kristi was truly amazing when helping plan our micro wedding. Professionalism at it’s finest.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Thank you Rhiannon for your lovely review. It means so much to all of us. Kathy did your wedding and we just adore her....so do her clients. She's so easy to get along with and you can't be in a bad mood around her! Kathy is like my Comfort Support Person! (and I can take her on a plane!!!!!)
Our primary reason for doing this type of work is because we want to serve people and make them happy. I'm thrilled we met those goals for you, your family and friends!
I will pass your words along to Katherine.
Best,

Grace Sent on 08/19/2022Personalization of Ceremony
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Ceremonies by Kristi! We would HIGHLY recommend our officiant, Marc! He was such a sweetheart and was so accommodating of our needs and desires. He even rearranged his weekend plans so he could officiate our wedding! We felt well represented and loved the creativity of his script. Ceremonies by Kristi is amazing at personalizing the ceremony to make YOUR special day perfect. Thank you Marc, Kristi, and your team at Ceremonies by Kristi! :)
Also, the above photos were captured by our wonderful photographer, Darian Clement Photography.Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
Hi Grace! I will pass along your kind words to Marc. He really is wonderful and we are very lucky to have him on our team! Marc was also telling me how much he enjoyed doing your ceremony. Congratulations! Best, Kristi -

Karen M. Sent on 04/21/2022Last minute officiant
My wedding was April 2, 2022 and my original officiant canceled on us a week before the wedding. I found Kristi and she didn't hesitate to help us. She didn't stop until she found us someone. She was very responsive even at 10 pm lol. I would recommend her anytime any day. Thank you again. Marc was amazing and he did an amazing job ❤❤❤❤Ceremonies By Kristi and Associates's reply:
I agree! Marc is great and I'm so glad we were able to help out. I feel so bad for couples who have to deal with the last minute cancellation of their officiant. You can't get married without one!
Enjoy married life. Marc really loved officiating for you!
