...thank you for the amazing wedding ceremony that you performed for us. It was touching, spiritual, poignant and so full of love. We have received numerous phone calls and notes about how lovely the ceremony was and quite touching. You really made the day special for us and we truly felt that it was a joyous celebration by the manner in which you celebrated with us. We were so honored to have you be a part of our day. It truly made the difference.
Thank you again for everything - Cassandra and Patrick
Anita,
We have not stopped talking about the wedding yet and people have not stopped saying how wonderful it was. I can't tell you how many people have asked about you and commented on how amazing you were and how meaningful the ceremony was. I remember when Bob and I first sat with you but you said people will leave that ceremony thinking it was the best ceremony they had ever been too. Of course I believed you at the time, but I mean you really meant it! Everyone just loved how personal it was. Other ceremonies are so cookie cutter, and this one was just the opposite. I just can't say thank you enough!
Urbane,
I wanted to let you know right away how special you made our wedding ceremony. All of our guests commented on the beauty of the ceremony and they were especially touched by how you …seamlessly combined our two cultures. You truly captured our relationship, families and faith. Many guests commented that the world would be a better place if everyone could weave cultures together as was displayed in our wedding ceremony. We hope our paths will cross again in the future.
Elizabeth and Kayhan
Dear Helen,
Thank you so much for the beautiful ceremony you performed. We got so many compliments on how unique and touching the ceremony was. We were so pleased how everything turned out. We were starting to get wrapped up in all the party details and lost sight of why we were doing what we were doing.
You made us realize what our celebration was all about. Being able to personalize our ceremony meant so much to us and we really got to show our loved ones what our family was all about. We know our wedding is one that people will be talking about for years to come. Thank you for being such a wonderful person to deal with. We appreciate all your hard work and dedication.
Love, Colleen and Elliot
Dear Maria Odilia,
We wanted you to know that everyone at the wedding was extremely impressed with our ceremony. They remarked that it had all the elements of love, wisdom, compassion and truth that any one could want in a wedding ceremony. You did a wonderful job for us and we are so very happy as a couple and as individuals. We thank you for your blessing and please know that our lives are blessed even more for knowing you and having you join our lives together.
Sincerely, Carol & Jim
Hi Irene,
Jim and I wanted to thank you again for such a beautiful wedding ceremony! We received so many compliments on how lovely it was and how nice you are. Many people asked how we came to know you and mentioned how nice it was chatting with you. Thank you again for such wonderful memories!
Love, Lori and Jim
Linda,
How can we ever thank you for all that you did to help us create and experience the wedding of our dreams! You have been a blessing to us both. We believe that without you and without your powerful spirit and words, we may not have made it through the difficulties we faced with some of our family members. Our vision of the day was in no way in line with theirs, but amazingly enough, once they met you, once you put your words (and our words) into the universe, they listened, and they understood.
Your ceremony was a turning point for many of them, and it was absolutely perfect, all that we have imagined.
Thank you for everything, for being attentive, understanding, creative, beautiful, and non-judgmental! You were a great part of what made our day so perfect.
All our love, Carrie and Kevin
About David Braneky
Journeys -
I've been remiss in sending this note, as we've settled back in after the wedding, but I just wanted to pass along a few words about David Braneky, who performed our wedding in June. He was great. GREAT. We wanted a bunch of different things from our ceremony, and some of it was a little delicate, and David handled everything just beautifully. He was really terrific, and my mom loved him, and Kim was impossibly happy with everything.
Thanks again Kevin
Hi Wilson!
Thank you so much for all your work yesterday. Our ceremony was BEAUTIFUL.... much better than I could have ever imagined. We are still so excited that everything went so well and we're glad and honored that you were a part of our day. Thank you very much and many blessings to you!

Dear Eileen and Marguerite
Thank you so much for making our daughter's wedding a joyful, special, and unique occasion. The ceremony that you wrote with them, Eileen, was perfect for them and such a blessing to witness. Our family members were very impressed with the beauty and individuality of the ceremony. And of course the happiness of Jean and Jose speaks for itself. Thank you again for officiating and for making their wedding so beautiful.
Marguerite, thank you for providing such a wonderful group of people to help couples with their wedding ceremonies. Journeys of the Heart has truly been a blessing to us.
Sincerely, Liz Mother of the Bride
About Kelly Fuddy
We wanted to thank you for your help with our wedding and in particular, for contacting Kelly Fuddy to officiate. With only a few days to prepare she created a lovely ceremony that was personally meaningful, both for us and for our family.
Kelly couldn’t have been more wonderful on the day of the wedding. She was patient, kind and accommodating. Kelly was calm and unhurried and conducted the ceremony with both warmth and professionalism—earning my son’s and daughter-in-law’s highest compliments (“I wish we knew about YOU last year when we were married!”) Thank you for the quality of your service and for your part in making September 15th a beautiful day for us.
Sincerely, Janet and Kif
About Jim Rosengarten.
Jason and I were married by Jim Rosengarten. When I initially called Journeys of the Heart and requested an officiant, I was specific in what Jason and I wanted for our ceremony. We wanted someone with a sense of humor, who could really relay what was important to Jason and me, in our lives, our relationship, and to our families. Jim was easy to work with; he really listened to us and let us customize our ceremony to fit our wants and needs. Needless to say, our wedding ceremony was perfect. Jim was the perfect fit for us, and for Journeys of the Heart to take the time to find someone so compatible amazed me. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special. We were told by multiple guests that it was the most special, unique and beautiful wedding ceremony they had attended.
Jason and Jessica
Dearest Naila,
Wow! You made our wedding ceremony exactly what we'd hoped it would be. It was just perfect. Everyone at the wedding has been raving about how lovely and warm you are, and how personal and interesting our ceremony was. In fact, it was hands down my favorite part of this entire experience. From the start, Steve and I knew that we wanted our ceremony to matter most, and once we met you, we were sure you'd be the person to make it just right. All of the suggestions you made, and the meaningful material you provided, were really in line with who we are as a couple and as individuals.
Communicating with you throughout the process was easy and delightful. You went above and beyond your call of duty, and we will never forget the wonderful gift you've given us. I've copied Journeys of the Heart on this message, so that they would know just how pleased we were with you, and how lucky they are to have you on board.
Thank you from the bottom of our happy hearts, Jennifer and Steven
Thank You Diane!
Thank you from both of us. You made our special day even more memorable. When I called Journeys of the Heart, I told (Marguerite) our story and she told me she had the perfect officiant for us - well you were! Not only did you make it fun and funny, you wrote and performed our ceremony in such a way that you captured the spirit of us. Your words made all of our guests feel that they were a very special part of our day and our lives. I am still hearing things about how lovely the ceremony was! Thank you also for handling the rain and all of the days events with grace and ease....
Love, Jo and Bill
Susanne –

About Miki Young
Thank you for assigning Miki Young to be our wedding officiant. We all knew the setting would be beautiful at Glen Foerd by the river. But we had no idea how wonderful the ceremony would be. We met Miki for our consultation over a year ago and made such a wonderful connection then. After that, our contact was all over the e-mail. The minute she walked into the room on our wedding day, the connection with her was right there, just as it was when we first met her as if no time had passed…She just knew the perfect imagery and ritual for us. Everyone wanted to know where we found her. I cannot thank you enough. I am so happy you knew that Miki would be the right officiant for us.
Dear El,
Our wedding was a huge success! All in part of you and your ability to help us create the ceremony of our dreams. Being of different faith yet both Christian, Andrew and I knew our ceremony was going to be unique yet hold true to our spirituality and personalities. And especially being able to honor my Dad in the way we did through our sand ceremony was truly a creation of us and thank you for carrying this out in our ceremony. We wanted our nuptials to be spiritual, connective, powerful and to reflect our essence as individuals as well as our relationship. It did all of that for us and our guests and for that we thank you.
With have said all of that, overall Andrew and I felt important, special and cared for the way any bride and groom would want to feel on the most important day of their lives. I am hearing nothing but positive things about our connective ceremony from my guests. Your efforts were greatly appreciated and never forgotten.
With Gratitude,
Christine and Andrew
Dear Heidi,
We just returned from our honeymoon and wanted to sincerely thank you again. From our first meeting we felt very comfortable the wedding would be memorable with you as our officiant. Your calls, emails and advice were a welcome departure from the hectic pace planning a wedding puts on a couple.
Our family and friends were so complimentary of you, the ceremony and beautiful manner in which you presented the words of gathering, prayer, honoring our mothers who were with us, our fathers who have passed, right through to the pronouncement of marriage. Not many could hold back the tears of joy and fulfillment. As I have described to others, "grown men cried", which is a testament to your sincerity. We hope these brief but heartfelt thoughts find you well and please accept our appreciation for all you did for us.
A prayer to you and yours, and our thanks to Journeys of the Heart for the service they provide.
Cindi and Michael
Dear Marguerite,
This is Stefanie and Cory writing you - fresh from our honeymoon - to let you know that we deeply and sincerely appreciate the wonderfully heartfelt ceremony you gave us on the 27th. It was the perfect summarization of what amounted to a perfect day. The clouds finally parted, the sun started to shine, and there, in front of so many loved ones, your words echoed with such great poignancy. Needless to say, there wasn't a dry eye in the house. Thank you for taking the time to make our ceremony relevant to our lives - not only the new life we were about to start together, but the long history we have spent together. It was a tailor-made ceremony, with every word carrying special significance. In addition, you were a calming presence, not only on that special day, but from the first meeting we spent together. We'll think about those moments for the rest of our lives, and we hope to see you again someday soon.
Best Cory & Stefanie

“It has been close to three years since we were married. I want to reach back and extend our thanks and
