My Couples Say:
"Kya officiated our wedding in August of 2007 and I just can't say enough about how impressed we were with her.
She is very pleasant to work with, extremely professional, and will work with you the whole way to make sure your wedding is going to be just how you want it. We used several of her suggestions in our ceremony, such as the sand ceremony, roses for the mothers, etc., and I still get comments from people today about how great they thought our ceremony was.
Thank you very much Kya - you helped create some of the best memories of my life!"
