Hannah absolutely blew us away with helping us create the most perfect wedding ceremony. There were (happy) tears in our eyes from beginning to end, and it’s all thanks to her! We had no idea where to begin when we started planning our Berkshires ceremony, and who to have officiate. We knew we wanted an outdoor ceremony without any religious elements, that centered on our love and the deep meaning of this commitment. We considered asking a friend or family member, but decided we wanted to try to find someone who had prior experience, so that the moment was sure to be as special as we wanted it to be. We found Hannah, and how lucky we are that we did! From the moment we first met with Hannah, we knew she would bring our love to life in our wedding ceremony. We loved every step of the process, appreciating how much she really took the time to get to know us individually and as a couple. She let us take as much time as we wanted, thinking through our readings, the ceremony structure, the music, and of course our vows, guiding us along with each part. The end result completely took our breath away – after vows that had us both crying, we had wedding guests coming up to us saying it was the most meaningful wedding ceremony they’d ever been to, and that they were crying right there along with us. Our wedding ceremony will forever be one of the most special moments of our life, and we have Hannah to thank for that. Picking Hannah to officiate your wedding ceremony is choosing to elevate and prioritize what makes your love special – you absolutely won’t regret it. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, thank you Hannah!
When it came down to choosing an officiant for our wedding - we had thoughts about asking someone close to us; like a friend or a family member but most of those people were already a part of our day in some way. So, when we began to think about hiring someone and only the best will do for such an important, love filled day. Hannah is truly the best in the business and she felt like part of the family as she officiated our ceremony so beautifully. She is kind, warm and an open book - any questions or stressors we had, she welcomed them, talked through them with us and that helped so many details fall into place. She makes a big effort to get to know you, your love story, your family dynamic and everything in between before preparing your ceremony. Leading up to our wedding day, she helped us with vows, how to relax, reminders to breathe during the ceremony and numerous other details of the day. My fiancé said it best after our sit down meeting with Hannah - she has a calming presence and voice that makes you relax and smile. We can’t thank her enough for being such an integral part of our wedding day. If you are on the fence about whether or not to hire a professional officiant - look no further, Hannah is best there is.
The morning of our wedding our dear friend and officiant was injured in a fall and was unable to perform our ceremony. Needless to say we were beside ourselves. we contacted Rev Hannah Grace in hopes she could help us on such short notice, Hannah agreed to marry us. When Hannah arrived, her demeanor was gracious and comforting, we were immediately put at ease. Hannah presented herself with such poise, professionalism, and kindness. We were so pleased, Our ceremony was wonderful. My family was very impressed with Hannah's thoughtfulness. We will be forever grateful for Hannah. We sincerely recommend Hannah to anyone in need of her services. -Lew and Margaret
My husband and I decided to work with Hannah after attending a friend's wedding that she had designed the ceremony for. We were in awe at how beautifully the script was put together and the overall flow of the ceremony. We reached out to Hannah and worked with her over the course of about three months to design our ceremony. First of all, Hannah goes above and beyond to provide the support you need for the big day. Early on, she spent the time getting to know us as a couple and helped us think about what was important to us for the ceremony (vows, readings, music, etc). This process was also a wonderful opportunity for the two of us to reflect on our relationship as we prepared to get married. With this information, she wrote a lovely ceremony script that was a true reflection of our relationship and what we wanted to share with our guests that day. She took the time to get to know our officiant (a family member) and mentally prepared the three of us for the big day. Our wedding was in Istanbul and we wanted to weave in both Turkish and American cultures to represent both of our backgrounds. Hannah helped tremendously in identifying how and when to account for these cultural differences (readings, certain phrases, etc). The result was honestly astounding. Our guests sobbed the entire time. Many of them said it was the most romantic wedding they had ever attended. Most of all, the ceremony truly captured our personalities as individuals and a couple. It helped our guests better understand our relationship and why this wedding meant so much to us. We honestly couldn't have dreamed up a better day. The ceremony is the first big event in your wedding. It sets the tone for the rest of the evening and is an opportunity for you to share your love with your friends and family. The wedding planning process is extremely stressful and there's no way around that (anything that's that meaningful is bound to cause some anxiety). However, throughout the whole thing, Hannah's support made a huge difference in helping us feel calm and prepared for the big day. She is a true expert and will think of many details that will never cross your mind. She has a way with words that is difficult to describe. She prepares you with many example resources throughout the process and is generous with her time. To have someone to lean on during the planning is a huge blessing. If you're debating working with Hannah, stop right now. There are few things in life this important. I wholeheartedly recommend Hannah's services if you want to walk away from your wedding with memories you will cherish for the rest of your life.
We recently worked with Hannah for our wedding this past spring. Hannah was truly a pleasure to work with. She guided us to feel prepared and supported for the wedding day. Throughout planning for the wedding, Hannah got to know Emma and I on a personal level, provided recommendations on how to make a ceremony inclusive for both families, and supported us as we wrote our own vows. Our ceremony was wonderful because of the time and effort Hannah put into helping us plan for the big day (during a pandemic nonetheless). Thank you for making our day so special, Hannah!
