Theresa and Charlie’s Wedding

Theresa and Charlie are a very dear couple who were married at a beautiful and rustic resort in Northern New Jersey. An eagle circled and landed on a nearby tree to watch the ceremony.

“We loved our wedding so much! And I have to say truly; the ceremony was my favorite part. We talked about it for 6 hours of our 7-hour flight to Paris. We were so hoarse when we got there! :) It was so much more than we dreamed it would be, so lovely. All of the nuances, like when you said, "this is Charly's dedication to Theresa" (the reading to a Cantonese woman), we had no idea that Corey would read it directly to me.

Everything just had this energy, and natural flow...it felt cosmic. I can't really describe it because my words are falling short. So many people remarked how beautiful it was.
People were saying they never heard of the "Hawaiian Water Ceremony" and asking where did we hear of it, how it was so different and eloquent.

Ren, so many people complimented us on you and asked where we found you. We feel so lucky, I can't even begin to say because that ceremony was so perfect, and we couldn't have asked for more. Thank you for everything. We look forward to hearing from you again.”

With love, Theresa and Charly

Amanda and Nick’s Wedding

Amanda is a Medic in the National Guard Reserve. She was deployed to Iraq. So Nick proposed and they were married a week later. Their intimate wedding was held at the Rescue Squad where they are both active Emergency Medical Technicians. Amanda is now on her way to Iraq.

From Amanda “Hello. I just wanted to thank you for such a beautiful ceremony. Nick was very happy with the readings and vows. Both mothers still have their roses in vases. I am supposed to leave for Kuwait in a few weeks. I will keep you posted. PS: Thank you very much for dropping the marriage certificate off at the post office. It was ready the next day.” Sincerely, Amanda

From Nick “Ren, thank you so much for putting together our ceremony on such short notice. It was very nice of you and you were a big help to us, since we were a little new to this. Our family and friends really liked the ceremony you put together. It meant a lot to us personally and we were very happy. Once again, thank you for being a part of our special day.” Sincerely, Nick

From Amanda’s Mother “Thank you so much for making Amanda & Nick’s wedding so beautiful. Everything was perfect and they are so happy. I know getting married was the right thing for them to do. They both feel so much more confident to handle anything that comes now. I look at all of the pictures and they are so in love and one with each other. We are so proud of both of them and really do love Nick like a son. Once again thank you for being there when she reached out to find someone. The service was fitted to them so well.” Debbie
