We wish to extend our most sincere appreciation for you Maria, and the magical ceremony that you bestowed in our honor. Your presence added an extraordinary tenderness to our wondrous day and the vows and blessing that you provided reflected the words of our hearts. The Apache Blessing accompanied by the beautiful music, performed by Oman Ken, truly lifted our unity to a spiritual height that we will never lose sight of. Thoughts of your sweetness will remain with us always as we recollect on our most unforgettable day.
Many blessings and all the love in the world.

Maria, thank you so much for making our wedding day so special! Everything you did -- from your guidance during the planning process to your presence as you helped us exchange our vows -- helped make our ceremony a very personal, moving experience that we will always treasure. We wanted a private, simple outdoor ceremony, and we appreciate how much you respected and honored our requests for customizing our beautiful sunrise wedding among the red rocks. It was terrific working with you, and we are delighted to consider you a friend.

Cheers!Linda and Rob

Maria, thank you! I knew from the time we met you that you would make that most incredible day more special and you did. You're such a caring and warm person and definitely we would love to do a vow renewal and be able to utilize your services again. Although we've been together for almost 7 years, we are still acting like teenagers. He truly is my soulmate and I'm so grateful you were a part of our very special day. Take care.

Our wedding could not have been handled better... We live in Ohio and handled every detail over the internet trouble free...took the whole package. Carla was terrific, the photographer did a great job capturing the moment and the music was perfect.. thanks for all your help and support, looking forward to spending anniversaries in Sedona....

Maria was a true blessing at our wedding! When everything else was falling apart - she was the calm center of our world!! She pulled it all together and did a magnificent job and our ceremony turned out perfectly. I couldn't imagine anyone else doing such an elegant and beautiful job with our ceremony. I really appreciated that Maria gave us the freedom to customize and personalize our ceremony ourselves, while guiding us and directing us as to how we might want to approach different situations in our ceremony. We decided to include a section honoring our mothers, and to incorporate my 5 year old daughter into the ceremony, we had a special sand pour ceremony with our daughter, my husband and I. Our guests commented on how beautiful and unique the ceremony was, and we couldn't have accomplished our dream ceremony with out Maria's help. She was truly God sent!

Hi, Maria. Jasper and I just wanted to thank you again for the lovely ceremony you helped us create - we'll treasure the memory of the day always. We are so glad we found you and wish you and Oman all the best in the future. Take care - Naomi

Kevin and I wanted to thank you again for making our vow renewal SO amazingly beautiful, romantic, and meaningful in every way! Stacy and John thought it was very, very special, and they thanked us several times for including them in the ceremony. We had the best time in Sedona -- there is such a strong, spiritual energy up there, that it really brought us close together for this. As we were walking through the shops on Saturday, the day after the ceremony, we felt like newlyweds! It was so cool! And I didn't want to leave my bouquet in the car to wilt, so I carried it around with me all day on Saturday and lots of people commented and congratulated us! It was just so much fun! We couldn't have asked for anything better!

Vicki & Kevin

I was happy to refer her to you! We just enjoyed you so much! I told my friend how great Oman is too. Married life is going very well! I want to tell you how much we loved the ceremony and how much response we got from our family about including the grandparents and the mothers in the ceremony. It was beautiful and perfect!
I hope you are having a great new year! Take care.

It was great working with Maria and having her officiate and lead our wedding service. Prior to meeting and talking with her, we had already put together our service on paper. Although one of us was raised as a Jew and one of us as a Catholic, we created a service that reflected our own beliefs about the world, including elements from many sources. Maria was very flexible and comfortable with incorporating our various influences and she really understood what we wanted to do. She had great suggestions, edits, and thoughts about how to enhance the ceremony. Although we don’t live in the Sedona area, it was very easy to work with her and get to know her prior to our actual wedding. When it came to the big day, the ceremony went beautifully. Maria and her clear, passionate voice helped make the service special. The topics she added were great and really fit with our vision of the ceremony as well. We had a great experience with Maria!

Rev. Maria, Tom and I just wanted to thank you for making our wedding day so complete. It was great that you let us have the type of ceremony that we wanted. Your input made the ceremony even more beautiful, from our vows to the songs to the blessings. I can't imagine a more perfect ceremony. Your soothing voice helped to make the atmosphere very relaxed, and our guest commented on how wonderfully you performed the ceremony, no one could believe how fortunate I was to find you on the Internet. I want to thank you also for staying in touch with us on a regular basis, before and after the ceremony.
God Bless and Thank You,

Tom and Angel
