  Everything we wanted in a ceremony!

  Gina provided us with the perfect ceremony from start to finish. She catered to our needs from the very beginning and was great to work with. We got so many compliments on our ceremony! Gina really took the time to get to know us and feel out the vibe of our wedding. Her suggestions, advice, and help were fantastic because I was very intimidated by the process, but she made it all so easy. She put me and my husband at ease and was super comforting and awesome. I cannot say enough great things about her and the service she provided. Thanks again, Gina!!!

  As we've been living together calling ourselves "husband and wife" for years, my wife and I wanted a "stealth" ceremony to make it legal, and Gina was up for it. She slipped into the restaurant as we were finishing dinner with the friends who introduced us, I introduced her as "Gina" and invited her to join us for a glass of wine, we toasted and then SURPRISE . . . she launched into the ceremony. 90 seconds later we were legally married. We are filled with gratitude that we could find Gina to do this for us. She was great, and we'll never forget her.

  I was impressed with Gina from our very first meeting. She was patient, kind, professional and really listened to everything I had to say about the type of ceremony I wanted. She worked with me to craft the perfect ceremony and I appreciated her insights on the different options available. I felt completely taken care of and 100% confident that my special day was going to be as special as I always imagined it to be. And it was perfect! Thank you Gina for making my day memorable and seamless!

  Ydalmi and I are so happy to have had Gina as our officiant! She has such a great, genuine, peaceful and warm energy. She has also been very helpful from beginning to end, and very accommodating. She made our day go very smoothly and made our ceremony better that we could have imagined.

  Gina officiated my wedding and struck a pitch perfect balance of calm and preparedness for our special day. We sat with her a few weeks prior to the ceremony and spoke about the wedding we wanted. She is warm, professional, and patient.

  My husband and I hired Gina to be our wedding officiant. Unfortunately we were not able to use her, but paid 100% of the fee instead of the only required 50% deposit. We informed her over 5 weeks before our wedding that we wouldn’t need her services and per our contract she would only keep 50% if her services were cancelled. However, Gina refused to reimburse us our other 50% per our contract. We have called and emailed her several times and have received no response. PayPal has contacted her as well and she continues to evade and won’t reimburse us our money for services we DID NOT receive.

  Humanist Celebrant Gina's reply:

  Dear Future Couples:
  
  I appreciate you taking the time to read my response. This review is not entirely truthful and is leaving out some key details. I pride myself on creating a connection with the couples I work with to create a ceremony perfect for them that is celebrated with love and joy.
  
  The situation with this wedding was unfortunate and unusual, but the cancellation had nothing to do with the quality of my service, but with the bride's change of plans, after I was contracted, turned down other work for the date, and provided the consultation work and the ceremony for her wedding.
  
  The bride paid for and agreed to a non-refundable service, which I would have been flexible on had it been an emergency or an issue that was out of her control. However, she told me that the reason she was canceling was that her family felt that it was inappropriate to have a woman perform a wedding and she wanted to have a man perform the ceremony in my place.
  
  I explained to the bride that while I didn't agree with the principle, I respected her choice. I also let her know that as the ceremony had already been provided to her and we had a non-refundable contract, I would not be able to issue a refund. Since that initial discussion and two follow up conversations, she has continued to request a refund and contact me repeatedly.
  
  I am happy to answer any questions in regards to this and I invite you to see my other reviews, most of which are housed on my website: http://www.humanistcelebrantgina.com/
  
  Thank you!
