Here’s what my happy customers said about my services:
Kim Marie was our wedding planner and officiant for our wedding in Schaumburg at Chandler’s Chophouse & Grille. She was immensely helpful, understanding, resourceful and best of all…she’s an AMAZING friend! We had a really big wedding and she helped us with everything question that we had; from the vendors, decorations, suggestions, advice and how we should handle everything with grace. We were very fortunate to have met Kim because she is still a presence in our lives. We couldn’t have asked someone more reliable then Kim. She helped keep us sane during the whole process!

Kim, where do we start?! First of all, you take a “leap of faith” when you decide to say “I do”, but it also takes a leap of faith when one finds an officiant! From beginning to end, we truly appreciated your thorough guidance in planning our ceremony. The ceremony was not only intimate and wonderful, but fun! You did a fantastic job of capturing who we are! We loved your style, your humor, your tenderness and joy. You are positive, energetic and you have a wonderful presence. You put our guests and us at ease. Thank you for your blend of humor in which you personalized our ceremony with the “Packer Fans” on the bride’s side and the “Bears Fans” on groom’s side! Our guests truly smiled and laughed at that one! It was an amazing day that we all will never forget!

Our wedding ceremony was absolutely amazing and we have Kim to thank for this. She made sure every detail was taken care of, and in the end our ceremony was all we could have ever asked for. Kim is extremely creative, fun, outgoing, generous, and friendly. What we appreciated the most was the way Kim really took the time to personalize our ceremony. She was able to eloquently deliver a perfect portrayal of our relationship to our guests. We received many compliments on how lovely our ceremony was—of course, we have Kim to thank for making our day so incredibly special. We can’t thank her enough!

I have seen Kim perform many ceremonies and there hasn’t been one that didn’t take my breath away. She listens to the couple she is working with to completely customize the content to deliver a personalized ceremony that they’ve always dreamed about. Some are light hearted and funny, others are sentimental and there isn’t a dry eye in the place. I can’t say enough about how great Kim is. Her personality will blow you away. She also does a great job incorporating your faith into the ceremony if that is important to you. I strongly recommend Kim for your wedding ceremony!
Jason & Tara Helton [2010]
It has been over 2 years since Ryan and I have gotten married and our wedding guests still rave about our wedding! You truly made our wedding day special and one-of-a-kind! With your help throughout the process, we felt comfortable and we were able to focus on the true meaning of our wedding day! You did an amazing job officiating our wedding the way we have always hoped it to be. Full of love, fun, faith, and laughter. I knew the love I felt for my fiancé while crying my eyes out through my vows were communicated perfectly and straight from the heart! We can never forget how much you have done for us. You are a bundled package: wedding planner, minister, and a kind and loving friend!
Ryan & Danielle Azarela [2013]
My husband and I could not be more pleased in choosing Kim as our officiant for our wedding. Kim made our ceremony personalized so that all our guests got to know us as a couple. She had everyone laughing and by the end many were wiping away happy tears. Several of our guests complimented us on how heartfelt and warm our ceremony was—and we have Kim to thank for that!
Matthew & Maura Vivona [2014]
Kim did more than just officiate our wedding, she made it the most memorable day! By getting to know us beforehand, she was able to capture our personalities and incorporate them into a very personalized and unique ceremony. She was extremely professional and fun, she kept the crowd engaged—there was laughter and tears throughout. We really appreciated her adding her own special touches; everyone especially enjoyed the wine box portion of the ceremony. We really can’t thank you enough for keeping us calm and guiding us through the entire process. I know ours was a wedding that will be talked about for years to come! A million thanks wouldn’t be enough for you as we start our lifetime together with such beautiful memories.
Richard & Wendy Klebs [07/27/2014]
We would like to thank Kim so very much for officiating our wedding ceremony. You were amazing! Both of us, as well as all of our guests loved it. Everyone was talking about how wonderful it was. You were so great to work with and made it so easy for us.
Glenn & Lorena Ferguson [2015]
Our ceremony was absolutely amazing and we have no one to thank but Kim! She sat down with us and planned out how it would go from start to finish, giving us hints and tips of how they usually go to help us make up our minds. She ran the rehearsal perfectly and made sure our rowdy bunch knew what they were doing. When it came to the big day she brought the house down—tears of joy and laughter filled the room. Kim did an amazing job and we would recommend her to anyone!
Zach & Heather [1/6/2016]
I want to say Kim did an amazing job and truly made our wedding day a memorable one. She tailored the wedding to our needs, which made it that more special. The wedding arc that she provided was beautiful and we had so many compliments. Thanks again for making our day special and one to remember.
Gary & Angie Lalla [2016]
All I can say is “WOW!” My husband and I were looking for an easy and carefree way to get married. We didn’t want the stress and craziness of planning to take away from the day. Kim was an absolute angel. Not only was she the perfect officiant for us, but she went out of her way to add in extra details to make our day super special. We were completely shocked when we arrived at the ceremony to see how above and beyond she had gone for us. Our tiny little Thursday luncheon wedding was everything we dreamed of (and actually a lot more) and we have her to thank for it! If you are looking for an angel in disguise to be your officiant, look no further than Kim!
Kristen Brothers [2016]
Kim was the officiant for our wedding and we thoroughly enjoyed working with her leading up to our big day. She did an incredible job creating a heartfelt, personalized ceremony. It was serious and special while also having moments that were light-hearted and she also kept things from feeling too heavy. She really got to know us as a couple, which showed through our ceremony and we couldn’t have been happier! We had so many compliments on our ceremony and many people said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to—between us sharing our personal vows and Kim creating a lovely, genuine ceremony, the love was apparent in the room and we were very happy. We would highly recommend her for anyone looking for an officiant/minister for their wedding day!
