Sunrise Ceremonies

I was extremely happy with Pastor Karen Gonzalez. She was very flexible to what we wanted and very professional. I would recommend her to anyone. We communicated through e-mails, which made it so much easier for me.

It was a pleasure to work with Karen! She provided many sample ceremonies which we were able to get ideas from. We took the parts that we liked from her examples to make our own custom ceremony. Most of our communication was done via email which was very convenient, her responsiveness was awesome!

Karen was so sweet and professional. She was very flexible and willing to work with me. I was able to handpick my ceremony, so it was exactly what I wanted. I would recommend her to anyone.

Rev. Karen Gonzalez did a great job on our wedding. She allowed us to completely customize it to have exactly the wedding we were looking for. She was very easy to work with to get everything set up, and she came to the wedding and the rehersal on time to work with us. She did a great job at our wedding.

Pastor Karen was great. We didn't get to meet her beforehand but it all still turned out amazing. We communicated through email and it went very smoothly. She even made us a really neat scrapbook of our whole ceremony. Very special. I would definitely recommond her to others.

Pastor Karen was great to work with. She communicates well through email and lets you decide how you want your ceremony to go. It was a pleasure having Pastor Karen marry us.

Since I had been married before, we needed a non-demoninational officiant and in the Sheboygan area. Sunrise Ceremonies popped up on our internet search, so we made an appointment to meet with Pastor Karen. At our first meeting, I was running late from a weekend down in Chicago, but she was very nice about it. She immediately made me feel at ease and after discussing our plans with her, we both knew she was exactly the right fit for our ceremony! She had some really great ideas and suggestions (for our outdoor ceremony, doing a sand unity vase instead of a candle) and she even made us a beautiful Scrap book for our wedding, everyone loves it! We would most definitely recommend her to our family and friends. Christine and Jason :-)

Karen is very easy going and is willing to make a ceremony that best fits the couple getting married not a predetermined same as everyone else kind of ceremony. She is very kind and seems to be able to relate and understand her bride and grooms very well. She understands that every wedding is very different and depends on the two getting married. She also gave us a very nice book that fit us perfectly with the ceremony and songs in the front with blank pages for us to fill with other wedding memories. We think it was the most thoughtfull gift we recieved and never would have thought of ourselfs

Pastor Karen was wonderful to work with! What caught me was the sunrise ceremony website! It made me want to call her right away and I persued. After that we set up a personal meeting where we met in person and my husband and I really liked her. She helped me so much with questions and ideas for the ceremony it was great I would definately reccomend her to anyone that is getting married. She really cares, is reliable, and gives great ideas!

Pastor Karen was very helpful in our email communcation prior to the wedding and also provided helpful websites for music for our small ceremony.
On the day of the wedding she was on time and answered Jason's (the groom) questions and introduced herself to me and gave me a scrap book she had created with our invitation and ceremony selection.
Overall we asked for a simple, casual ceremony and Karen provided that and more on our wedding day.

Karen did an amazing job! The day was better than we could have imagined. Karen was so professional and well organized during the rehearsal and ceremony. She kept me and fiance calm on the big day knowing that everything was in good hands. She provided very helpful advice along the way but also allowed us to create our own ceremony, just the way we wanted it.
She gave us a beautiful scrapbook after the ceremony that will treasured forever.
Thank you, Karen. It truly was the happiest day of our life.

Pastor Karen was extremely easy to work with, customizing our service exactly how we wanted it. She was very prompt in communicating with us about the details prior to our wedding which we greatly appreciated. The day of the wedding, she graciously stepped right up to help with pre-ceremony preparations that were not part of her duties. After the ceremony, she presented us with a lovely scrapbook, expertly crafted, containing our ceremony text. This was such an extremely thoughtful gift, and is now our most cherished memento of our wedding day. Every word in our ceremony meant a great deal to us, and now we have Pastor Karen to thank for preserving that memory in such a beautiful format.

I cannot recommend Karen highly enough, she was fantastic. She was extremely helpful throughout the planning process, and she was always lightning fast to respond to any e-mails with any questions we had. It was a pleasure to have her as our officiant on our special day.

Pastor Karen gave us some already scripted marriage vows and I took those and made them personal for Tyler and I. I added two readings and a sand ceremony. Pastor Karen came to rehearsal the night before and was on time for our wedding ceremony. We had great weather for our outdoor wedding and it was very special.

We were able to personalize our entire ceremony. It was wonderful.

Pastor Karen Gonzalez was incredibly helpful in planning our wedding ceremony. She made us feel at ease on our big day. We would recommend her in a heartbeat. She was professional, friendly, and caring. We can't thank her enough for helping us on such short notice (I contacted her 2 weeks prior to the wedding date).

Pastor Karen was really wonderful! She was very flexible from beginning to end, and so helpful. I even forgot to get sand for the sand ceremony and she ran out to get some for me! Both my husband and I felt very comfortable with her and our ceremony was absolutely perfect. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Pastor Karen was easily the best vendor I worked with during my wedding. She replied promptly to our first email inquiry, and from there on out, never took more than 1 day to reply to anything we sent her. She was really helpful and understanding about how stressful wedding planning can be--she helped us to work everything we wanted into our ceremony, even with time constraints. We told Karen what we wanted in our ceremony, as well as what kind of mood we wanted it to have and such, and she helped us come up with the perfect ceremony. The scrapbook she gave us, with the keepsake marriage certificate, was beautiful!! It's so nice to have our whole ceremony in such a beautiful form, so we'll never forget it. Pastor Karen is a great choice!

Karen was absolutely excellent; we are so grateful that we'd found her! She was incredibly flexible and attentive, and she worked with us so well to create a ceremony that was exactly what we'd wanted. Any question of ours was promptly - and thoughtfully - answered, and she clearly places a lot of value on communication.
Karen really made my (new!) husband and I feel as though our wedding was the most important thing on her agenda, and her approach made us very comfortable from the start. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone; she is amazing. Our wedding would not have been the same without her. (=

We were pleased with the overall ceremony

Pastor Karen was great from beginning to end! She was patient with all of my questions and helped guide me for the type of ceremony that was right for me and my family! I would recommnend her in a heartbeat!
