Maria Odilia Romeu

Maria Odilia Romeu

Maria Odilia Romeu: Philadelphia Metropolitan Area and Beyond Maria Odilia was born in Africa, the child of a Dutch mother and a Puerto Rican father. Regretfully, she speaks neither of her parents’ native languages, but enjoys a close relationship with her overseas relatives - who all speak English! She is intrigued and delighted by cultural diversity, and values the people she has met and the art she has explored during trips to the Pacific Northwest of the USA, Europe, Japan and Latin America.

Maria Odilia is nurtured by the love she shares in her family life with her husband of 30 years, as well as their three unique and lively daughters. Maria Odilia enjoys walking, gardening, tennis, attending theatres and visiting art galleries. She relaxes through tai chi and regularly practices mindfulness. She is constantly experimenting with new art forms including mosaics and painting. Lately sewing quilts and trying to learn golf have been her pursuits. She has found more success with the needle than the club!

Maria of Journeys of the Heart performed as our Minister for our ceremony. Throughout the entire process, she took us, the couple into account by personalizing the ceremony to what fits us and not a cookie-cutter ceremony. We took our own ideas and traditions as well as her experience and she created a beautiful ceremony that made us feel united.

 

In terms of readings, vows, etc, Maria provides an extensive collection from which to choose either to use directly or to mix and match based on what means most to the couple. She is warm, kind-hearted, and a gentle calmness that is helpful to brides, grooms, and their family as the most joyous of occasions can be the most stressful as well.

 

Maria did an excellent job of managing everyone at the rehearsal.

“It has been close to three years since we were married. I want to reach back and extend our thanks and appreciation for being part of our day and truly making it unique. When we think back to our day, our vows, our ceremony - our hearts are still warmed by its one-of-a-kind essence. Our wedding day was unforgettable.”
