We were more than happy with April! I would absolutely, 100% recommend her to anyone. The ceremony she personally wrote for us/with us was beautiful, and we got a very nice copy of it as well. She's wonderful to work with, a wealth of knowledge, the perfect personality for what she does, a beautiful person. We got wonderful comments from our guests about her and our ceremony, as well.

Pastor April was an absolute pleasure. She was funny, poignant, sincere and most of all, happy to be there. I really don't think anyone else could have married my husband and I and made it so intimate or special. Thank you for making our day! We love you!

Pastor April was fantastic, she is friendly and warm and answered the many questions we had right away and with supreme knowledge. The ceremony we had was so beautiful and many of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to I even had an Uncle say that he was thinking of using her to perform his up coming wedding.

Pastor April was amazing. She captured the feelings of the moment and brought tears to our eyes. Our ceremony was very brief (our request)yet April delivered each word with such love. The ceremony is and was the most important part of our day and Pastor April made it a wonderful memory that my husband and I will not forget. We highly recommend Pastor April and will continue to cherish the memories she made for us on our wedding day.

We had Rev. April officiate our wedding and she was great. We had a simple ceremony so we just dealt with her through email in the months leading up to the wedding. She made the process so simple. You can either use a sample ceremony on her website or work with her to form your own. On the day of the wedding, she was extremely organized and helped us with everything including the marriage license/certificate process. She is a great public speaker and did a fantastic job officiating our ceremony and conveying our feelings to everyone. We've gotten so much positive feedback on her from our family and friends. She was always easy to reach and communicate with. We'd definitely recommend her.

Recognition through the years

Celebrated on Long Island.
