A Wedding Officiant and Registered Celebrant

We met Shauna via Email and Skype. I was in Akron, Ohio and my wife to be was in Japan. Shauna helped us plan our wedding ceremony and it went way beyond what we expected. She helped with difficult choices and guided us to include all that we wanted in the ceremony. She was kind, clear-headed and on the day we were so crazy nervous and she was our calm reference point....Our ceremony was exactly what we wanted, thanks to her careful editing methods and we had more fun during the ceremony than we ever dreamed possible. Thank-you Shauna!!

Shauna Kanter, our wedding celebrant, exceeded our expectations and brought a special energy to our wedding ceremony. Even after just speaking on the phone, I had a feeling that she was the perfect officiant/wedding celebrant for us, and once my then-fiance and I met with her in person, he couldn’t agree more. Shauna exudes a personable and warm energy, which was important to us in creating the kind of intimate, personalized ceremony we sought. She also has the experience, confidence and vocal presence to embody such a significant role that can influence the tone of the entire wedding day. Shauna asked my fiance and I to each complete her questionnaire, detailing everything from how we met and what we love about each other to the vows and specific traditions and wording we wanted included, and she then wrote our personalized love story, around which she formed the ceremony. She was very open to our editing and very detailed in all aspects of planning surrounding the logistics of the ceremony, and we are so thrilled to have chosen Shauna to be part of our day. So many of our guests commented that she, with her warm and composed energy made the ceremony so special and unique to us as a couple. We whole-heartedly recommend Shauna to anyone seeking a wedding officiant to create a personalized, intimate and joyous ceremony!

We are pregnant and Shauna will be doing our baby naming ceremony. We loved working with her. We got so many compliments and so many of our friends loved the ceremony. Shauna made our ceremony special and completely unique, she was there at every step of the way, gently advising us and leading us with a great deal of patience and compassion. During the ceremony people laughed, they cried and we truly celebrated our wedding in just the way we wanted to. Shauna created exactly what we wanted. Thank-you Shauna from the bottom of our hearts.

Shauna was a delight! She led us through every step of our ceremony from listening to our ideas to organizing with our friends to writing our story to holding a wedding rehearsal to performing our wedding - one that we will hold dear forever. She is a true generous spirit. She is our family Celebrant now!

Shauna gave my husband and I the ceremony that we wanted. Working with her was a joy and when we were stressed or concerned about any ceremony details she was reassuring and calm. Her presence on our wedding day was comforting to both of us and we were extremely happy with her services.

Shauna is a genuinely enthusiastic person who helped us through every step. She is truly a lovely lady.

Shauna was extremely professional; she was fun to work with, very organized and guided us in ways we couldn't have even known about. She was flexible and really included what we wanted for our ceremony every step of the way. And, she followed up on all the legal stuff. She listened to what we really wanted and then performed this beautiful ceremony. Her voice is to die for, it's so clear and warm. During the reception we got so many compliments on the ceremony. It was such a glorious surprise!

Shauna Kanter is a wonderful Celebrant. She helped to craft our ceremony and make it our own. During the ceremony writing process, she was very patient and helpful. She worked with us on each draft until our ceremony was perfect. At the actual wedding, she handled the marriage license process seamlessly. Her delivery of our ceremony was also wonderful -- Shauna has a very calming and charming delivery style. I heard nothing but great things from our guests! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a highly personalized ceremony.

Shauna was a fantastic officiant for our non-religious ceremony and wrote a beautiful introduction to us on our big day. She really captured everything about us in a few short paragraphs. She was so amazingly accommodating with all of our requests (e.g. nothing religious, keep it short, but still personal). So many of our guests told us how much they actually enjoyed the ceremony-part of the wedding (and no one ever likes that part!). She even came to CT and did a rehearsal for us. So flexible !
