Weddings That Inspire

On behalf of Carla and myself, I would like to extend a huge THANK YOU for the excellent job you did in performing our marriage ceremony. It was absolutely perfect, and flowed beautifully. After receiving all of the "wedding gossip" yesterday, I don't think there's any aspect of the wedding that got more rave reviews than the ceremony you helped us put together. They absolutely loved the love story and how everything else was just woven together so nicely--even the country club, itself, was very impressed.

We wish you continued success, and we hope to someday see you again--at the wedding of some other couple, of course!

Marsha could not have been a more perfect Officiant for our wedding. We wanted someone who could perform a non religious ceremony, and Marsha was our girl. In fact, she can perform any ceremony you please. She was such a joy to work with. Very prompt and professional, and such a great speaker. We got numerous compliments about how great the ceremony was. She provided us with more than enough options for each section of the ceremony, and also provided some great new suggestions for things we did not even consider. On top of that, her fee is very reasonable. I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a highly qualified, very professional, and all around nice person to create a wonderful ceremony for their wedding.

My husband and I could not have been more pleased with the beautiful ceremony that Rev. Thomas provided. After meeting with her, we knew that we found the right officiant. She gave us options to help us truly make our wedding unique and memorable. We were able to incoorperate our personalities and found the words that expressed what we mean to each other.

After a few weeks of not finding the "right fit" for an officiant, I took one full day utilizing every break at work and an entire evening on the phone with potential officiants. I had a lot of "he or she will do" feelings following most of the phone calls I made that day. Marsha was my last call and I instantly felt a connection with her sincerity, professionalism, and genuine passion for what she does as an officiant.

Right off the bat, one thing that distinguished Rev Marsha Thomas - she truly wanted to get to know us. Many of the people I contacted would not meet with us prior to a down payment or seemed offended when I said I'd like to meet and make sure we are a good fit for each other. Marsha brought it up on her own and asked to meet with my husband and me prior to formally entering into contract. To me that showed someone who is not just performing ceremonies for a pay check.

So I knew I loved her and I was hoping Mike would too. We had a meet and greet at a coffee shop and Mike was also blown away with her sincerity and professionalism. We went back to the car, gave each other a knowing look of excitement, and called Marsha to be our officiant before we left the parking lot.

From there Marsha provided us with a ceremony outline to discuss. Based on our conversations, she gave us several options for every piece of the ceremony. We picked which options we liked and she was open to any tweaking ideas we had. In addition to the options she gave us, she also wrote our unique love story based on our conversations and a questionnaires she had Mike and me fill out.

On the day of, Marsha was a relaxed presence - organized enough to make sure things went smoothly, yet flexible enough to roll with the inevitably unanticipated wedding day occurrences. Guests raved about the ceremony, many indicating it was one of the best they've seen. Many guests asked me if she was a friend of the family because she seemed to know us so well. THANK YOU!

no words can express the feeling of the service that was was created for my husband and I. We greatly appreciate all of your hard work and dedication to our marriage ceremony.

To all future brides mrs thomas creates a wedding that inspires and that will make all your dreams come true.

Rev. Marsha Thomas was very thorough and completely open to the type of ceremony that we wanted.
Very professional and has a number of different wedding efficient styles to choose from to cater to our
prefernces. We got to actually approve the whole ceremony word for word! Basically, it's your day, she
understands that and wants it to go great.

At the last minute, our family pastor was unable to officiate our wedding! We were in a panic when my planner & I scoured the internet for suitable alternatives. When I found WeddingsThatInspire.com, I was immediately encouraged. The emphasis on getting to know the couple in order to create a personalized service was exactly what we were looking for!

Prior to our first meeting, Reverend Marsha Thomas provided a list of all the elements commonly used in weddings. Her materials made it easy to customize our ceremony by first selecting the elements we wanted, then later deciding exactly how/when to incorporate each element. For example, we knew we wanted to incorporate our Mothers in some way and Marsha recommended the rose ceremony. When unexpectedly presented with roses, both Moms were brought to tears and touched by the gesture.

When we met in person, Marsha was punctual, friendly and professional. We felt comfortable with her demeanor (she even played with our overly friendly pup) and her abilities, as she described various options we hand't even thought of. She reassured us that we had plenty of time to create a specialized ceremony that reflected us as a couple and she delivered on her promise!

On the day of the event, when we forgot to bring the certificate to the ceremony, Marsha was extremely flexible and professional. She delivered flawlessly and several guests complimented the unique ceremony.

Overall, we were pleased with our ceremony and we would highly recommend Reverend Thomas!

Reverend Marsha Thomas responded on a very short notice. She created the most beautiful and creative ceremony that I could have ever imagined.
I was very pleased and would recommend to all. The ceremony was performed in my home which made it very personal!

Ms. Thomas,

Where do I start...you have been with me since day one. You helped me along the way, encouraged me, gave me advice and suported me. You have been such a great friend, the bond that we share is like no other. You sealed our wedding by marrying us. I could not think of another person to do the job. You being there made us very happy. You are professional, caring, loving, understanding and you take heed to the needs of the bride and groom. The thoughtfulness of the readings of the ceremony and the prayer for dinner was unbelievable. When you were conducting the ceremony all I felt was love pouring out of your heart. It's bringing me to tears just thinking about it. WE thank you again for entering our lives, being a part of our special day and forever being friends.

Love,
Mr. & Mrs. Monegan-Married 7/17/11

From the first evening we met Marsha, we were so happy to have found her. We felt that we had an instant repoire with her. She asked us questions that were thought provoking, fun and that led us into a discussion of why we were thinking of getting married in the first place. It helped us to bond even closer and to feel even more sure that we were making the best possible decision in getting married. She appeared to care deeply about our future together even though she had just met us and we felt comfortable with her immediately.

The ceremony was exactly what we requested it to be and the feedback from our friends, afterwards, was that it was one of the nicest wedding ceremonies they had ever attended.

A breath of fresh air, the perfect officiant! I've experienced Ms. Marsha Thomas at her passion, which is working with people, she is awesome, she has a warm heart and a caring spirit and is open to everyone she unselfishly lends an open ear and will offer a non judgmental response or can just listen. She's positive and makes your wedding personal, exciting and interesting. With her EVERYONE matters. Your wedding will be warmly felt not just watched. I recommend her services to everyone.
