“Linda was our celebrant for our helicopter elopement up in the Tantalus Range and we were glad that she came highly recommended by Karizma Photography. We linked up with Linda through email months before our big day and she stayed in constant communication throughout the entire process. She made us feel comfortable and rest assured that we were in good hands. She provided us with many options for our ceremony and was also accommodating with our requests. We had a chance to review the rough draft script of our ceremony and it was beautifully put together.

We also had the chance to connect with Linda before our big day over wine since we were staying in Whistler. It was lovely getting to know her in person and she kept our marriage application for safe-keeping. Linda comes 100% recommended in our books. She made our ceremony feel intimate, meaningful, personal and special. Linda is definitely a visual storyteller, painting the picture of how we met, how we fell in love and how we learned to love each other.”

Linda officiated our wedding in May and was an excellent officiant! She provided very clear instructions, lots of options for vows, readings, etc. and was very communicative. The ceremony script was perfect. And she was also just a lovely person in general and a pleasure to chat with :)

“From the first moment we chatted with Linda, we knew we had found ‘the one’. Her warmth put us at ease as she guided us through the outline for our ceremony and we were blown away by her ability to quickly capture the essence of our relationship in the script and selection of readings she crafted for us. Linda went over and above in every aspect, holding our hand through the entire process, covering all the bases and generally giving us confidence that everything is under control. We couldn't recommend Linda highly enough. The sad thing is, if all goes well, you only get to work with Linda once :)”

Kim & Jason

“Kim and I would have not had had such a beautiful moment in life if Linda was not our celebrant. The ceremony was very intimate and personalized, Linda spent a lot of time researching Filipino traditions and carried out the ceremony gracefully, explaining each meaning of the symbolic pieces to my side of the family who do not practice Filipino traditions. Linda put an amazing amount of effort into our special day, and anyone would be lucky enough to have her as your celebrant. Thank you Linda.”

If there was a way to award higher than 5 stars, Linda would deserve it! She gave more than 100% in every aspect of our ceremony. Her communication, thoughtfulness, and uncanny ability to encapsulate our relationship within the readings she chose was just perfect. As well, Linda is highly organized and detail-oriented, which made the lead up to our big day run smoothly/stress-free. We cannot express our gratitude for having Linda be our celebrant for our ceremony!

I cannot say enough great things about Linda.She is truly one-of-a-kind. She connected with me via email with plenty of time prior to my wedding to get to truly know us as a couple, and this made for the most beautiful, personalized ceremony I could have ever imagined. Linda was so thoughtful and made us feel so special and cared for before, during, and after our wedding. She is continually kind, professional, as well as hilarious. My groom and I hope our paths cross with Linda again someday.
