Dear Margaret:
Thanks
again, for performing our wedding ceremony. It was everything we
wanted, and your delivery was excellent. Your website was very helpful
and inspired us to have a non-religious ceremony, which all our
family and friends thought was great. We are very happy we could
work with you to create a special personalized ceremony.

Thank you for helping us create such a unique and wonderful wedding
ceremony. We truly believe our wedding day was all that we could
have hoped for and was a reflection of who we are and what we wanted.
We appreciate the time and suggestions you offered along the way
to make the day calm and relaxing-- knowing that the details were

they are received.
Sincerely,

The Wedding of
Sonja and Ladislav
|
Dear Margaret,
Ladislav
and I would like to express our gratitude to you for performing
our wedding ceremony so eloquently. We also appreciate all your
preparatory work; meeting us at the courthouse for the marriage
license; helping to create our ceremony yet giving us the freedom
to make it unique; and for taking time out of your busy schedule
to meet us on rehearsal night to eliminate any last minute questions.
Because
of your communication with us prior to and throughout the wedding
ceremony, we were confident that our special day would flow smoothly
and without flaws. Your words of wisdom were a big part of that
day being a success. We will read it over and over again, but we
will also live by it.
Thank
you, Margaret for conducting the most important moment in our life.
We will always remember that day and smile.
With
love,
Ladislav
and Sonja Kotoulek

The Wedding of
Lindi and Roberto
|
Dear
Margaret,
Roberto and
I would like to thank you for the wonderful job you did conducting
our wedding ceremony. The most significant part of our wedding planning
was deciding what we want to express to each other and to our families
and friends during the ceremony. We wanted the freedom to be creative
and not be restricted to any preconceived format or obligatory sayings.
However, it was difficult to start from scratch. We therefore greatly
appreciated your guidance in bringing our ideas together and making
the ceremony flow nicely. The calmness and sureness of your manner
also put us at east during the ceremony.
In addition to helping us create and
then conducting the ceremony, you were an indispensable help with
all the legalities surrounding a marriage, especially since we were
planning our wedding all the way from
Switzerland . We were
very grateful that you met us at the courthouse to fill out papers
and that you took care of all the paperwork after the wedding, while
we were lying on the beach.
Thank
you again, Margaret, for the interest you took in us and in making
our wedding day special and unique.
Sincerely,
Lindi
and Roberto Dotta-Trinsey

The
Wedding of Wanda and Jonathan
|
Dear Margaret,
Jonathan and I were
so pleased with the Humanist wedding ceremony you wrote with us
and performed. The ceremony was a beautiful expression of humanist
values while it was also individualized for our own relationship.
We appreciated our inclusion on the writing process as it gave us
an opportunity to open a dialog of our individual thoughts on marriage.
It was a joy to work with someone who shared our enthusiasm for
developing new humanist rituals, such as tossing rose petals over
the balcony, representing embracing the world from the foundation
of our marriage. Your poised, warm delivery invoked a very moving
experience for both of us.
We appreciated your
understanding of the challenge of marriage by extending yourself
to us, not only as a Celebrant, but as a friend to call upon during
difficult times. As a woman and as someone who has an appreciation
for aesthetics, you added so many little extra touches to both the
ceremony and the reception (the white ribbons for the candle lighters,
the chime to start the ceremony, the scrolls of the Ingersoll poem
with the little bells attached). I think our favorite was the personalized
wedding sign you held up for the guests to pick up their boarding
passes for the cruise! It was such a creative way to make the guests
feel welcome from the beginning.
You were a real natural
for the role of Wedding Coordinator, too. Your vivacious personality
kept the cruise events going all evening and enabled us to completely
relax and enjoy our guests. The spontaneous toasts were heart-warming
and created such an atmosphere of intimacy. Several guests later
remarked on how fun and intimate the reception was. My brother said
it was the most original reception he had ever attended. Thanks
for being partners with us as we dared to be different and created
a day of memories we will always treasure.
Your Newlywed Friends,
Wanda and Jonathan

Wedding of
Maureen and Matt

Dear Margaret,
I apologize for the extended length of
time it has taken us to put in writing to you our sincere appreciation
and thanks for helping to make our wedding day such a special, special
day for us.
>Your guidance and
assistance was a huge part of making that day so memorable for us;
in fact, without you the day would not have been what it was. Our
ceremony was spiritual, loving, unique and wholly something magical
for us both. Your help in writing our vows and your guidance in
planning the ceremony itself was invaluable.
You helped us to turn our vision for a perfect ceremony into
reality. Needless to say, we are thankful for your enthusiasm and
support in performing a dawn ceremony!
We also value the friendship that began with
the time we spent with you.
You are a just such a wonderful and accomplished human being.
We feel privileged to have had the opportunity to get to
know you a little, and look forward to getting to know you better.
We admire you for standing up for what you believe
in, though it may be unpopular and not politically correct.
Your sense of humor and steadfastness in your beliefs in
the face of ignorance and intolerance is remarkable.
Please know you have our support!
So, again, we thank you for helping to make our
wedding the perfect expression of our personalities and our passions,
and of our love for one another.
With love,
Maureen McMenamin and Matt Godo

Indian
Wedding
Dear Margaret,
Kelly and I, and our families deeply appreciate the wonderful job
you did at our Secular Humanist Ceremony. Our aim was to combine
some traditional aspects of ancient Indian wedding rituals with
rational humanist values and the manner in which you undertook this
enterprise helped make the entire event a great success - we have
had uniformly rave reviews from our friends and families.
Your personable and professional manner, and
your ready adaptation to non-Western customs especially helped conduct
the event smoothly. Thanks in large part to you - we believe
our wedding ceremony was a truly memorable event for both of us
and to all who attended.
We hope you will continue the great work
you've been doing in fostering humanistic ideals in this far too
irrational world.
With warmest wishes,
Deepak & Kelly
