Loved Our Officiant  

Some of our past couples and what they had to say....

It seems easy to rate an Officiant service with high marks because you are already in a heightened state of excitement and everything seems wonderful at the time. However, it has been a year now to "get over it"! And on reflection, we are still thrilled with the service and attention we received from Rev. Pat and her husband Rev Kelly. They are simply an adorable couple and made us feel special. They love their work and cried right along with us! We thought we were hiring strangers to do the officiating. What we got was an extended family to share our most memorable experience. Love you, Rev. Pat! -  Jessie & Mark McGregor Idylwild CA

"Rev. Pat . The photos of the bare feet on the beach, the sounds of the waves coming into shore and the beautiful words that you wrote for our ceremony will always be treasured. Because of your gift as a minister, our wedding ceremony was deeply blessed." - Dan & Babs Hogan,  Midland TX.

"Rev. Pat was so helpful in creating a wedding ceremony that was uniquely ours. We wanted a non-religious ceremony with handfasting.  She emailed us examples and worked with us to meet our needs. The ceremony was lovely and just what we wanted. The custom cord that she created for us was beautiful! She took my ideas and ran with them to create a one of a kind cord. My husband and I used the pictures that the photographer took of it as a background picture in our wedding album since it came out so wonderful. We did not tell anyone that we were including a handfasting in our wedding so it was a nice surprise for our family and our mother's were the ones that tied the knot for us." - Jennifer & Stan, San Mateo CA

"Rev Pat,Thank you for the beautiful ceremony which brought tears and memories to all who were there. We have gotten so many compliments from relatives and friends on what a beautiful ceremony it was. So many people commented on the sand ceremony. It turned out perfect! Thank you ."  - Chelsie & Billie Lowe, Victorville CA.

"Wow! Thank you Rev Kelly for all of your hard work in preparation for our ceremony! Working with my father to surprise us with rites from his Native American and Peruvian traditions, will never be forgotten! The Blessing Stones will continue to bring back memories for years to come. Thanks again for helping make our ceremony at Falkner Winery truly special!" - Tasha & Steve,  San Diego CA

“Rev’s Pat & Kelly thank you for being part of our surprise vow renewal on the Coronado Beach.  Lisa was completely surprised. You both captured the richness of our love through your beautiful words just as Dennis Way captured them on film. Thank you for orchestrating the beautiful moments that we will always treasure.” - Lisa & Mark Fanjoy, Thousand Oaks CA

"Rev. Pat   Thank you for the beautiful ceremony. We will always remember your special words to us, your sweet smile & calming presence EVERYONE Loved it." - Marcel & Kemar, San Diego CA

Rev. Kelly was amazing!! He took his time explaining things and guided us through the ceremony process. He went out of his way many times even months after the wedding when we were having a difficult time obtaining our marriage license with the county clerk's office. We enjoyed working with him! Thank you Rev Kelly your for the beautiful ceremony at Pala Casino. So many people shared how much they were touched by your special words to us.  We will always remember our wedding day because of you." - Martha & Joe, Los Angeles CA

Rev. Kelly and Rev. Pat crafted a personalized wedding ceremony that reflected the wishes of the bride and groom perfectly. Since we were working without a wedding coordinator, Rev. Pat was on hand to give advice and keep everything on track, and Rev. Kelly gave us a beautiful ceremony as officiant. The wedding ceremony was a success thanks to Rev. Kelly and Rev. Pat Borsum." - Jennifer & Erik Hall, Carlsbad CA
