I dont even know how to start to describe how amazing Pastor April is. She made our ceremony SO personal and beautiful. there were tears and laughter and it truly made everyone feel like they were in the prescence of love. I HIGHLY recommend her. Simply perfection!
April was amazing to work with from start to finish. We met with her at her house to tell her our story and about ourselves. She then wrote a beautiful ceremony for us which we could edit and give her our input. She always responded to my emails right away and followed up one week before our wedding. She arrived at our ceremony site early to make sure everything was ready to go. We had a beautiful ceremony that was special and individualized to us as a couple. Our friends and family loved it and wondered how we had found her. There wasn't a dry eye in the crowd! I would highly recommend Church of Ancient ways. She is priced right and does a wonderful job. We had so much fun working with her and recommend her to all of our friends. THANK YOU!!!
Pastor April was wonderful! The ceremony was perfect! She was so easy to work with and always got back to me right away! Thank you April!
We first saw April Officiate one of our good friends Wedding about a year before ours & then we went to two other Weddings where April officiated & we were blown away. At the end of the third wedding I was begging her to save our Wedding date even though we still had not met with her! I was a Bride who wanted to CONTROL everything & so at our meeting I started speaking a mile a minute. April calmly told me to sit back & relax & let her do the work. She had her own magical way of getting the information she needed & she was just so calming. Her process was amazing, we would give her information & then within minutes she would take our words and give us an idea of something she might say based on what we had just told her. Each time we loved what she came up with, it was almost like magic & we told her to make sure it was all included! After 10 minutes I had no doubt that our Ceremony was going to be perfect & unforgettable. After leaving our meeting, a few hours passed and April's first draft ,as promised (this was almost a year b4 our wedding) was in my inbox! We couldn't wait to read it & when we did we both cried because she really understood us as a couple. She nailed it. She wanted us to make changes & she also gave us about 10 examples we could use for each segment! We hardly made a single edit to that original rough draft and on August 31st, she delivered a Ceremony where you could hear a pin drop. Even the professional pictures show everyone seated just staring eyes wide open, anticipating her next words. April showed up over an hour early to make sure she met with all necessary people, she looked both beautiful and professional and it was because of her that the ceremony ran flawlessly. She responded to my emails immediately, always made herself available & she even called just to touch base and gave me advice on how to handle some of my other more stressful vendors! Friends and family are still raving about her!
After meeting April for the first time, I became excited about my wedding ceremony. Our ceremony was fun, uplifting, and personal. I couldn't have asked for anything more!
