She was great, friendly and polite and knew when to step in and facilitate and when to step back. The experience felt unpressured, unrushed. Very respectful language chosen for the ceremony. She was a great photographer and we had so much fun. 10/10. Would get married again!

She got back to me rather quickly and was able to recommend people in case she didn’t work out for us!

Carmen is an amazing officiant and florist! Her enthusiasm for weddings is infectious. She was able to create the perfect arrangements for our winter wedding. Being from out of state, I was concerned we wouldn’t be able to get across the look we wanted from phone and email conversations but Carmen was able create the most beautiful arrangements that were even more perfect than I could have imagined. Her thoughtfulness and passion for her work shined though. Her flowers stood out and complimented our decorations well! As our officiant, Carmen walked us through the entire ceremony and made every step completely stress free. We had many compliments on how personal our ceremony was. The ceremony felt very natural and she laughed along with us as our nieces and nephews were running around. Carmen kept things light, fun and made us feel very special on our wedding day! She really took the time to get to know us as a couple to make the ceremony all the more intimate. She even captured ...

Carmen is incredible. She made the ceremony smooth and beautiful. I highly recommend her!

Carmen did the officiating and the flowers at my daughters wedding in September 2019. The ceremony was perfect and we could not have been happier with the beautiful flowers. I hope to be able to upload some of the photos soon. My words won’t do the flowers justice.

Carmen was more than helpful during the planning, rehearsal, and the actual ceremony. We received many compliments on the ceremony and could not have been happier with how it all went! I absolutely recommend Carmen!

Carmen was the officiant for our vow renewal. She was kind, patient, eloquent, and just what we were looking for with our intimate vow renewal.

Carmen is incredible! She was our officiant as well as our florist for our wedding. Having one less vendor to communicate with throughout the planning stage was very helpful. Carmen made our ceremony so personalized and special. She truly paid attention to who we are and what is important to us and put it into words. She has a light hearted and easy personality, but is also professional and detail oriented- she didn’t miss a thing! Our families were so impressed with how much Carmen felt like a part of the family the first time they all met her! Carmen took time to acknowledge each person (and remember all their names!) in our wedding party, including our parents, which was so impressive. We cannot say enough great things about Carmen! Our flowers were also so perfectly “us.” We had some unique ideas for our flowers and Carmen was not phased by it and did not try to talk us into a different direction. She was genuinely excited about the challenge and the results were amazing! ...

We received many compliments about our flowers. We highly recommend Carmen as an officiant and a florist!

Carmen was our florist and she was amazing to work with. The flowers were exactly what I wanted and after meeting her I can imagine her other services would be great as well. Highly recommend!

Carmen officiated/photographed a small family wedding for my husband and I over the weekend and we could not have been more pleased with her. Vermont was having record breaking heat (along with most of the country) and we wanted to have our ceremony outside overlooking the mountains and Carmen braved the heat and all the mountain bugs that were around the property as we took pictures. The air bnb we rented didn't have air either so no break from the heat there. Despite all of this Carmen had a great attitude, and was very personable and professional. We are very impressed with the photos she took, that she got to us by midnight on the day of the ceremony! We, along with our families, would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in the area.

Carmen was very organized and did an amazing job with our ceremony. She is a pro and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an officiant in the VT area!

We loved the ceremony and the vows. We appreciated Carmen's happy attitude and joyous enthusiam; it made us feel very much at ease and present in the moment. We loved all Carmen's photos and creativity.

Carmen made our elopement extra special! From our first conversation she made us feel at ease. We weren't sure what to expect when trying to iron out all of the details. Carmen gave great ideas and helped everything come together! The bouquet was lovely and the photos look amazing!!! Can't thank her enough.

We recently moved to Vermont and were seeking a local JP to marry us. After interviewing Carmen on the phone and hearing how enthusiastic she was about our various ceremony elements, including a Thai water blessing, we knew Carmen was the right choice. We met with Carmen a few more times and spoke on the phone leading up to the wedding. It is apparent how much she loves what she does, her fun attitude and energy made all our ceremony planning go smoothly. She gave us a draft before the wedding to look over, and was happy to adapt to our feedback. She helped direct our wedding party at our rehearsal, making sure people knew what to do and how to position/move from a photographer perspective. Her words during the ceremony were heartfelt and meaningful. Here is a video of our ceremony - https://vimeo.com/344221206
