Nancy, We can’t thank you enough for such an incredible ceremony and all the time & love and wisdom you provided us in preparing for this union. It went so beautifully.

T & J

We got married on Valentine’s Day. Nancy set just the right tone. The ceremony was so sweet — small and intimate. It is a memory we will always cherish.

M & M

The really great thing about Nancy is that she helped us plan a gorgeous ceremony AND prepare for our marriage.

The compatibility inventory showed some places where we might stump our toes in the future.

She gave us great communication tools which we use to this day.

D & C

After 12 years and three kids, we needed to refocus our marriage. It’s so easy to let our busy life and kids take up all the space! We asked Nancy to officiate our Renewal of Vows.

It was perfect. We laughed, we cried, we looked each other in the eyes and remembered what brought us together in the first place.

We highly recommend Nancy. She’s so easy to work with and has such a fun personality.

R & J

As a Second Time Around for both of us, we were committed to making a healthy marriage our reality.

We celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary this year! A huge part of our success we credit to our effective pre-marriage counseling with Nancy. She gave us a safe place to work through difficult issues – – still does when we need it.

Her investment in helping us honor the vows we made is amazing.

Living happily ever after!

Dianna & Kenny

A stress free wedding. Nancy is amazing! She helped us work through a few issues and know we can always seek out her counsel. She tailored our ceremony to suit our personalities. It was wonderful, easy. We have a friend for life!

Claudia

We had the opportunity to renew our vows I am thankful for Nancy being charming and gracious. She brought another level of joy to the entire ceremony. Truly making for us another special day just like the first time. All my thanks.

Crescent

Our wedding was a dream come true for us. Everything was perfect, including the lovely ceremony. Nancy got to know us during the planning and gave us all kinds of lovely tips. Her wedding day message was funny, poignant and scattered with anecdotes about us.

Throughout the week leading to the big day, Nancy took our calls and responded quickly. She was also the voice of calm, which was just so helpful. She was and is professional and we knew what to expect from her during the process. Adaptability was key as we made last minute changes, which she incorporated easily.

Really, she just made our day memorable.

J & T

Pastor Nancy was great to work with from beginning to end. Communication was smooth and she responded to me so quickly each time I contacted her. She made our ceremony so personal and FUN…just what we were after. She also gave us sound advice about things we would have never even thought to ask. Can’t say enough about how special she helped to make our day!

Linda

Nancy did a great job getting to know us as a couple and did a terrific job with the ceremony.

J & D

Nancy was amazing! She was on time for both the rehearsal and the wedding ceremony. Everything went smooth and being that this was our first wedding she helped us with who walked when and who stood where. It was a huge help and everything turned out great. She was even excited about us having our pups in the wedding! You will not be disappointed with Nancy.

Ashley

She took the time to get to know us as a couple and did an amazing job at the ceremony.

Julianne

Nancy was the perfect minister for our wedding ceremony. She made it so special and I loved every choice she made for it. She is also just so delightful and fun to be around. Our family loved her as well. She is the best of the best.

Alicia

Nancy was phenomenal!!! She was always punctual and made sure everything was in order. She made everyone feel at ease and ceremony was sweet and special. Thank you Nancy for making our day a memorable one!!

Alyssa

Nancy was such a blessing to work with! We planned our own wedding and it was challenging at times. Nancy did an amazing job of customizing our vows to fit our needs, helping us incorporate our family vows into the mix, all while offering kind words of advice and encouragement. I strongly recommend Nancy Woods for anyone looking for a personal touch with their wedding.

Julia

Rev. Woods worked well and maintained her sense of humor and purpose in an unruly situation. She is competent, friendly, and gets the job done!

Fred

Having Nancy during our special day was one of the best decisions we made! Not only did she have a great personality, but she was able to blend right in with our families as if she were a part of it all along. She is affordable, wonderful, and has a passion for helping couples on their wedding day. If your officiant doesn’t tear up during your vows, then they don’t truly love what they do! Thank you Nancy for everything!

Dawn

No words can describe how beautifully Nancy made our ceremony. She is honestly the BEST decision my wife and I made for our wedding. She made our ceremony unique and that is something we both will remember. My wife and I moved to Arizona a few months before the wedding and Nancy made it her priority to check in on us (not many will do that). The unity heart was something my wife and I wanted and Nancy wrote her own version for the ceremony. It made everyone including herself tear up. If you need a wedding officiant for your wedding Nancy Woods is definitely the person you want! Nancy is passionate in what she does and it shows!!!

Randall

Nancy did an amazing job officiating my wedding in Fredericksburg, Texas. She was super easy to work with and accommodated my “First Fight Box” ceremony perfectly. You can tell she is very passionate about her job and the couples she marries. I would recommend her to anyone in the area needing an officiant.

Sheena

I cannot say enough about Nancy and her support to us while we were planning our wedding. She went above and beyond to help make our wedding extra special for us and our family. She is welcoming, caring, knowledgeable, and supportive. Thank you, Nancy, for making our day extra special.

Jill

Nancy was the perfect choice from the moment we met her –we were drawn o her welcoming and peaceful personality and knew we’d found the right person to officiate our wedding. She did a marvelous job, not only of performing the officiant duties, but of helping us set expectations and mentally/emotionally prepare ourselves for our commitment. I have no doubt in my mind that our day would not have been as special without her guidance and participation.

Kenny

Nancy is the BEST! She is easy to work with and listened to what we wanted. She worked with us to make the ceremony the way we envisioned it. We were both a little nervous, but she put us right at ease as we moved through our ceremony. We didn’t have to worry about a thing! And we got so many comments from friends and family members about what a beautiful job she did. So we highly recommend Nancy at I Pronounce You for your wedding officiant.

Victor

Deciding to use I Pronounce You for our wedding was one of the best decisions ever. Nancy Woods is so genuine, so endearing, and made the process so stress-free. She truly cares about the couple. She does more than just be the officiant. She puts her heart and soul into the ceremony. She is fun, colorful, and the sweetest gal around. Totally recommend her for your wedding.

Jamie

Nancy is AMAZING! We are so appreciative for her gifts shared with us. She is a true professional who obviously loves what she does and has such a loving personality. I highly recommend her and fully believe in her ability to provide the custom services perfect for you.

Lynn

Nancy is a true professional. She is compassionate, punctual and catered to our every need from start to finish of this most important day of our lives. We would highly recommend her to anyone considering her services Thank you so much for your professional service.

Olga & Charles

We met Nancy at a wedding fair and I immediately knew she was “the one”! I connected with her instantly after sharing something personal with her and she met me with a big warm hug. Nancy is such a caring, genuine, and sweet soul! She tailored our ceremony to our personalities and was respectful of our religious beliefs. We told her we wanted something short and sweet, and that’s exactly what we got, but Nancy was able too craft the ceremony in such a way that none of the love and heartfelt sentiments were left out. We met with her a few times before our wedding for premarital counseling and found it incredibly beneficial, and we can’t wait to meet with her for our one year “How’s it going?” meeting! She’s become part of our family for sure!

Sara

Nancy made renewing our vows easy and fun! She was the perfect combination of guidance counselor and just the right amount of casual flair and sweet humor – allowing us to take our renewal ceremony seriously while creating a fun event o be shared with loved ones. My husband and I are so happy we chose to work with her and have her share our special day! Thank you, Nancy.

Janet

Nancy was great. She ensured that our wedding day was everything we hoped for and more. We could tell she truly cared about us, and the ceremony was amazing!

Kevin

Nancy was terrific for us. She was very cool and efficient when one of our guests had a meltdown! Very caring and professional. She also kept everyone in the celebration spirit. Lots of laughter. We felt great having her perform the ceremony without a lot of religious overtones. She is great! Be sure to schedule her as far in advance as you can. She’s that good.

Mike

Nancy is a beautiful soul and her passion for her service shines brightly for those she works with. I highly recommend her as an officiant for weddings or vow renewals.

Our wedding was the day after Thanksgiving and we were having a difficult time finding an officiant until we called Nancy! Not only did she come to do our wedding that day, but she did a wonderful job! Many of our guests commented on how good she was. We are a religious family and she honored our wishes by conducting our ceremony with God and prayer included. She was warm, friendly, accommodating, and on time!
