Review: Aloha, We just got back from our honeymoon/vacation and wanted to thank you both for such a wonderful ceremony. We loved the personalized ceremony you wrote us and how easy it was to work with you. Cecilia & Peter, you are such a wonderful couple and love how happy you both are making the whole experience fabulous. Our wedding on March 16 was memorable. Thank you again. Mr. and Mrs. Neff. Aloha, Aloha 

Review:  We were very honored to have Cecilia as our wedding officiant.  From the first meeting she was so informative and helpful. She really helped create the perfect romantic and personalized ceremony for us. She gladly accommodated all of our requests and made everything run smoothly. She conducted the ceremony with a nice mix of solemnity and levity that brought both tears and laughter from everyone involved. We also had a pleasure to have Krueson as our photographer. Peter managed to capture a perfect picture of every little detail that was important to us.. His knowledge of the area, landscape, lighting, water, and angles , made us feel comfortable and very confident that he was going to get some amazing shots! The photo quality is outstanding - we have a beautiful mix of poses and candid, and each one is just fantastic. Debora & Darius - March 19, 2012

Estefania and Oliver - Jan 03,2012 

You and Peter were both so wonderful to work with last weekend!

I really appreciate all your effort and assistance in planning our wedding ceremony.  I really had no idea what I wanted the ceremony to be like, I only knew that I didn’t want it to be too traditional.  I loved the fact that you were able to provide me with a sampling of vows, readings, and traditions to use in our ceremony.  They were all so unique and you made it very easy for me to plan this part of the process.  This was so important to me because so much of the planning process was overwhelming.  You made this part seem easy….I can’t thank you enough for that!  

So many of our guests commented on how special and unique they felt the ceremony was.  They all thought you did a wonderful job of leading us through the ceremony and making it personal and intimate for Keith and I. 

I also want to thank you for assisting with the photography.  It was so nice to have both you and Peter there especially since we did so many of the pictures prior to the ceremony.  You were really helpful in keeping everything organized and moving along.  I can’t wait to see the pictures that Peter has for us!  I just know they are going to be incredible!

So thanks again for everything.  You were always available via email or phone whenever I had a question and your guidance and assistance was greatly appreciated!  Thanks so much for making our wedding day such a special event that went off without a hitch.

Happy holidays and best wishes into 2012!

Keith & Andrea Dinnen

Hello Cecilia & Peter, The pictures you have taken are so awsome; it has been so hard for us to chose one a few ones.Dilyara & Kevin Sept. 09, 2011.

Agradecemos para ti pela sua participação no nosso casamento. Acredito que foi indispensável a sua participação, que nos ajudou desde o planejamento até a cerimônia em si. Sentimos muita segurança contigo por lá e todos os nossos convidados comentaram muito positivamente sobre as suas palavras e textos, os rituais e enfim, em fazer uma cerimônia super agradável e positiva para os noivos e convidados. Parabéns e novamente muito obrigado por tudo! Beijos, Rodrigo e Juliana Sept 5, 2011.

Today we received both our final marriage certificates and the disc from Peter with all of our wedding photographs. They are breathtaking. Everyone who has seen the photos has told us how beautiful they are. We love that Peter took posed photos, photos that were romantic, photos that were funny and lighthearted, and gorgeous photojournalistic photos. The amount of time that Peter and Cecilia recommended for photos was perfect and the price was more than reasonable (really a steal given your amazing work and your outstanding professionalism). It was a joy to have both of you as part of our wedding day. Thank you! Thank you! -Jessica & Howard August 31,2011

 We are very happy with how our ceremony went.  Everything you did for us was exactly as we had asked for it, and your additional suggestions and guidance (in particular with regard to the last few minutes of the timing of the ceremony) were extremely helpful.  You managed to help us on our day without being in the least intrusive, and for that we are very grateful.  Kathy notes that she picked up a few places where the diction in your Spanish was slightly unclear, but this was a subtlety and did not affect the overall atmosphere of the ceremony in the least.  If you would like to use us as a reference for future couples, we would gladly recommend you to them.  It was a beautiful day, and we thank you again for your part in it.  Kathy & Bruce,  March 30,2011 - Maine

Brian & Laura, Stuart, February 28, 2010  I was very pleased with my ceremony!  You were very warm yet professional.  I was so nervous, but I took one look at you and how calm you were and I felt that everything was going to be ok.  I never had any doubt in my mind that my wedding was in good hands with you, Cecilia!  Thank you so much! Maggie & Brandon, Miami, February 24,2010 We want you to know how special we thought the ceremony was...much was thanks to you. Everyone in attendance has commented on your warmth and the sentimentality that radiates from your delivery. Your words were so heartfelt, and that was projected very articulately. Your calm and gentle demeanor was a breath of fresh air during a time we were ready to stress out. We could not imagine anyone better than you to perform our ceremony. You made the whole event work wonderfully. I also wanted to thank you for getting the marriage certificate in the mail to us so quickly. It was a pleasure meeting you and should the occasion arise, we will recommend your services. Thank you so very much for being with us on our special day! We were so blessed by the words you offered and will always be grateful for all your assistance, grace and joy! Thank you again for being so amazing.
