Ecstatic Ceremonies was the best decision we made for our wedding day! Anna crafted a beautiful story that truly grounded our ceremony and made us feel special. Anna took our ideas and made us feel at ease throughout- working with our creative vision and creating a beautiful vision. Anna is truly a gem!!

Anna is so wonderful! We were already legally married so we didn't technically need an officiant, but we wanted someone who could capture our 10 years of marriage into a ceremony. She did just that! Anna made us feel safe when being vulnerable and she made us feel heard when we offered feedback on our first draft. The final result was a beautiful ceremony that encapsulated our many years together, while acknowledging that our wedding was also a new beginning. It is also so important as a queer couple to feel comfortable, and Anna is absolutely the right choice for that! Anna felt like family by the end of the process and we are sad it's over! Thank you!!

Absolutely thrilled to recommend Ecstatic Ceremonies as a wedding officiant! From start to finish, they exceeded all our expectations and made our special day truly magical. Their kindness and genuine care for us as a couple shone through in every interaction. They took the time to really understand our unique story, values, and personalities, creating a ceremony that was perfectly tailored to who we are. What we appreciated most was their dedication to inclusivity. They ensured that our ceremony was a reflection of love in all its forms, and everyone felt welcomed and celebrated. Their words were heartfelt, and their presence brought a warmth that resonated deeply with us and our guests. Many of our friends and family commented on how beautifully personal and authentic the ceremony felt. If you’re looking for an officiant who is deeply invested in making your day special, we highly recommend Anna. She will bring compassion, inclusivity, and a sense of joy that will make your wedding day unforgettable!

Growing up with years of "Catholic wedding trauma" the actual ceremony was the part of my wedding I was least excited about. HOWEVER Anna completely transformed things with her amazingly personal, heartfelt, humorous and all around perfect ceremony. Everyone who attended kept asking who "our good friend" that married us was! I am so grateful for this beautiful memory she has given us and I can not recommend her enough. I don't think our wedding would have been the same without her special touch. She was able to capture the spirit of our relationship and who we are as individual people, weaving together a beautiful story for our guests and inspiring us as a couple to savor what has been and what is to come.

Wow, I can’t rate Ecstatic Ceremonies highly enough. Anna is absolutely phenomenal. Not only did she prepare the most beautiful wedding ceremony for us (I still have friends and family members asking me to get a copy), she was with us every step of the way in preparation and support. She helped make our wedding really feel like “us”, and brought an extra-specialness to our wedding day that we never would’ve captured without Ecstatic Ceremonies being involved. Loved Ecstatic Ceremonies for our queer wedding and would recommend to absolutely anyone and everyone!! Truly so special.

While many of our vendors treated us like clients instead of humans in love, Anna was the soul of our ceremony. She crafted a personalized, beautiful ceremony (it felt like she x-rayed our SOULS) and her thoughtful expression of her understanding of our love inspired us to write personal vows with the same level of poetic intention. She was also super open to edits and changes as we workshopped the ceremony together. Dozens of our guests made sure to tell us how beautiful our vows & ceremony and we couldn't have done it without Anna. Anna felt like a friend and confidante through the final push of wedding planning— she wasn't just there to do business but was genuinely invested in our love. I can't recommend her enough as an officiant and emotional/spiritual guide through the marriage process.

Anna, through and through, has a heart and soul full of unrelenting love and warmth. She encapsulates her devotion to love and marriage in all of her work. Anna has a tenderness and passion for creating ceremonies that are entirely about you and your love. She created a ceremony that cherished our story, fostered our love, and demonstrated it so eloquently that even the most stoic of our family came to tears hearing her. Anna took the time to see what our values were and what mattered most to us. She learned how to recite an entire poem in another language just so we could include part of my ancestry into our ceremony. That, to me, is a special kind of compassion not many know. Anna brought peace and light to our special day. When the stress was high, Anna was there for us every step of the way. Anna is a once in a lifetime find, both as a vendor and friend. I could not imagine having our ceremony and wedding be crafted and officiated by anyone else.

I cannot speak highly enough about Anna’s excellence and magic as a ceremony planner and officiant. Her energy is infectiously sparkly and joyful, yet somehow also tranquil and reverent. Her process is organized, thoughtful, and full of intention. She made a concerted effort to get to know and understand me and my partner and our unique story and connection, and a result the speech she crafted for the ceremony made us both feel deeply seen, and deeply celebrated. Our ceremony was a unique one—a poly wedding—and Anna navigated the non-typical terrain with grace. Both in the planning process and on the big day, she created a beautiful, protective container that allowed us to focus on our love, and let the more stressful parts of the wedding fall away. I am so grateful to her and so glad we decided to hire her!

From the moment we met Anna, she was so genuine and personable. Anna scheduled planning calls and was always there for us to answer any questions. She brought our story to life! Our family and friends loved every word spoken. Some were so deeply moved before our vows with her speech. It was such a beautiful ceremony because of Anna and we are so grateful for her! If you need an officiant, who is down to take a selfie with your family on stage, who feels like she loves your love as much as you do, and who just has the kindest demeanour, you need Anna!
