A sincere and huge thank you for helping make our day so wonderful. We had so many compliments on the ceremony. In fact, it bought tears to the eyes of people I least expected – tears of laughter and joy. We cannot thank you enough for your support and guidance in putting together the ceremony, as you not only made us feel relaxed and comfortable, but also our family and friends. Thanks so much again Sally – we couldn’t have done it without you.
Thank you so much for your help and contribution in the week before the wedding and on the day itself. You had quite an impact on the day and we received many comments about the quality of the ceremony and how it was conducted, and most of the comments were from guests who were not even aware of the short time you had to prepare it! We really appreciate all the effort you went to for us and we really feel lucky to have found you. Thank you for the ceremony you created for us it was honest and special. The messages you presented resonated within us, and surprisingly touched on all the points that are so important to us (surprising since we only had a brief time to meet each other!). We couldn’t be happier with how the day went and your contribution to the day was significant and is greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
