What can I say about Pastor April that hasn't already been said! I booked her thanks to all the amazing reviews I found on her on LIW. She really is an amazing, sweet person and made my ceremony special and one I will never forget! We received so many compliments from our guests also. She was so easy to work with and always got back to me right away!
Pastor April was the first vendor we booked after the venue. The moment we met with her, my husband and I knew she was the one we wanted to perform our ceremony. She worked closely with us (and was extremely helpful and patient) to personalize our ceremony to ensure that it was not cookie-cutter and boring. Indeed, our ceremony was personal, intimate and elegant, with just the right amount of tradition from both the Catholic and Jewish faiths without being too religious, which is exactly what we wanted. She was so articulate; so soothing and calming; and produced both laughter and tears. So many people told us that they thought our ceremony was the most beautiful they had ever witnessed and asked us where we found April. We highly recommend Pastor April if you want a beautiful, intimate and personalized ceremony that will be remembered always!!
We booked Pastor April after reading tons of rave reviews about her. I can say from first hand experience they were all true! I have sat through so many cookie cutter weddings that were completely impersonal. We wanted our wedding to really be about us. Pastor April did just that! We have received so many compliments about the ceremony she performed and the uniqueness of it. She will work with you to include the elements you want in your ceremony. She is very professional and passionate about her work.
All of our guests had high praise. April set the tone for a perfect wedding celebration.
Rev. Marie April Gismondi (April) is the absolute most wonderful person to work with on your wedding. I cannot tell you how many of our guests commented on how terrific she was and how beautiful and touching our wedding ceremony was. It brought tears, laughs, smiles and applause! Thank you so much!
