Barbara is simply a national treasure. We are beyond grateful for her support in helping us craft our own ceremony and holding our hands every step of the way. Our family and friends were blown away and had nothing but wonderful things to say. If you are looking for someone to help you create a unique ceremony, Barbara is THE person to work with. She is attentive, engaged, kind, excited, funny, flexible, super experienced and able to get along with anyone. Anders & Bree

Barbara made our ceremony unforgettable! It was so special and many of our guests expressed that they had never been to such a heartfelt ceremony <3. Barbara really worked with us to make our ceremony very tailored to us and our story and how we wanted it to feel: authentic, joyful, and memorable. We loved working with her and fully recommend her!

We had spoke to a few people before talking with Barbara, and right away we were felt so at ease will her philosophy and process to come up with a ceremony that was uniquely ours. My partner and I had dealt with a lot of loss in the year going into our wedding and Barbara handled it with grace and lead us on a beautiful journey to rediscover part of our story that brought us so much joy and appreciation for everything that got us to that day. We would whole heartedly recommend her to lead you through your ceremony. It was the best part of our wedding day and memories we will have for life. It was so nice to share it with you Barbara, you truly have a gift and we’re so thankful for all you put into your work.

We had the most special, personal and meaningful wedding ceremony and that’s thanks to Barbara. From the first time we met with her we felt so at ease and throughout the planning process she always made sure we were comfortable, calm and ready. She uncovered what was most important to us, and crafted a ceremony that went beyond our expectations. It really was the highlight of our entire wedding day and so many of our guests approached us afterwards to say how beautiful it was. Barbara is such a special human and natural storyteller. We are so grateful that we had her with us and to guide us on our big day.

What can we say to adequately describe Barbara's magic? My husband I were pretty clueless going into our wedding planning about exactly what we wanted for our ceremony - but we knew what we did not want! Our first conversation with Barbara made it immediately clear that she was the celebrant we wanted to marry us. She is a consummate professional (not to mention an expert) while somehow also easily accessing the personal part of our partnership that led her to create the PERFECT ceremony for us. We answered a questionnaire and poof, Barbara was able to draft the whole script for the ceremony which we then tinkered on together to create the exact ceremony we wanted. She knows how to work with all other vendors to make the whole process seamless. You cannot and won't find anyone better suited to make your wedding magical than Barbara. We are forever grateful to her for the invaluable contribution she made to our wedding day <3 Thank you Barbara!!

Barbara was absolutely wonderful to work with and our ceremony was more beautiful than we could have imagined. She was so easy to work with, helping us to design our ceremony so that it was personal and meaningful to us and our family. She was very responsive and really took the time to get to know us and our relationship, coming up with a ceremony that was so special to us. Her ideas were brilliant and it was a relief knowing we could trust her with the most important part of our wedding planning. Barbara did an amazing job officiating the ceremony. She made it fun and relaxed and there was so much emotion - so many happy tears! My husband and I had a very small ceremony (only 13 people including us) and it was exactly what we were looking for - relaxed, personal, fun and full of heart and love! We would recommend Barbara to anyone who is looking for a unique and personal ceremony that truly celebrates your love!

As the former executive director of Oceanside Hospice Society I asked Barbara to officiate the unveiling of the new Wind Phone, an initiative to support bereaved individuals in their time of grief. Barbara weaved her magic using her authentic and thoughtful approach to bring together those in attendance. Attendees included town council, community, business and, healthcare leaders, volunteers and staff. Barbara found a way to reach each individual in a meaningful way and effectively used rituals, story telling, and nature to find common ground. It was a powerful experience led by a skilled and compassionate woman who deeply connected the Wind Phone and it’s importance to those present. She skillfully lead us through a process that was unforgettable, built on trust and compassion. I was equally impressed and grateful for her involvement with this project.

If you are getting married you need Barbara in your life! We had such a wonderful experience with her. From start to finish, she made the whole process so easy, and comforting. She customized our wedding story, and it truly felt like she had known us her whole life. Barbara makes your ceremony so special and one you will never forget!

Wow what a perfect day. I couldn't have imagined my wedding more beautiful. Barbara made it so easy to focus on my husband to be and found ways to include our guests. Barbara made our intimate wedding even more so.
