Dear Shira,
We can’t thank you enough for doing such an amazing job of designing and conducting our wedding ceremony. We were totally blown away by how personal and perfect the words you chose to express the commitment we made. We wanted something unique and honest to how we felt about love and marriage, and we got exactly what we wanted. It was wild to hear the actual words we use on a regular basis to describe the relationship we work so hard to create. Many people have told us that it was the most moving ceremony they’ve ever seen and it really felt like they were witnessing a life long commitment of beauty, love, and support. Thank you so much for truly listening to us and being so brilliant at putting the pieces together into this magical moment that we will never forget.
