Hi Rab! Yes - we are (pretty much) settled in - - there is still so much to do!

John and I talked about it and both of us agree that if we had to go back and do it all over again, we wouldn't change a thing (EXCEPT that we would have more time to take off for a honeymoon )!!!!

I think everything was perfect including having you as our officiant!

I really appreciate your calmness, openness and willing to let us just be us!!! I was incredibly comfortable with you and that meant alot to me! Thank you again.

Hello Rab! Nice to get an email! :)

We're doing great! We're finally settled in Phoenix.. Man is it HOT!

I've been meaning to send you some pictures, I'll probably send them to you next week when we get our internet set up. Brien and I were very pleased with how personal you were with us. The ceremony was absolutely perfect and I couldn't have been as happy with anyone else marrying us! No complaints here at all, keep up the good work! Thanks again!

Marriage Makers and Susan Chicovsky helped make our wedding ceremony both unique and special for my husband and me. Marriage Makers offered us a forum to find a wedding officiant that suited the type of ceremony we wanted and Susan's warmth and sincerity made the whole experience a pleasure. She helped us create a beautiful ceremony that expressed exactly what my husband and I wanted to say to each other on the day we became husband and wife. Susan's wonderful spirit and sense of humor made our wedding ceremony very special for both us and our guests. We loved our experience with Susan and with Marriage Makers and would strongly recommend them to any couples looking for an officiant. Thank you, Susan!
Sincerely,

Dino and Amy Starinieri

David and I were both very happy with the ceremony you performed for us. We thought that having a collaborative approach to writing our ceremony made it very easy to have our feelings expressed in a format that was appropriate for a wedding ceremony. Thank you for your efforts and support!! My father took the copy of our wedding prayers, folded it, put it in his pocket, and commented, I'm keeping this. I'll remind you if you forget what you promised. You guys said all the right things!

Kathleen and David

We loved everything you did for us, with the counseling and with the ceremony. We can't think of a single thing we would have changed. We will recommend you to friends. Thanks so much for participating in our wedding, it was fabulous and unforgettable!

"When Rich and I first moved to Colorado from Chicago after our engagement, we were very concerned about finding someone we trusted and connected with to marry us. We found Susan by chance and met with her in her lovely and welcoming home. We connected with her immediately and felt like we could talk with her for hours. She really got us and what we wanted and after our first meeting, she drafted our vows and they were absolutely perfect. Just from meeting us one time, she knew us enough to write the most beautiful words we could ever imagine to be read at our wedding. She was always quick and precise and was such a calming force at our rehearsal dinner. She made everything seem effortless and fun and reminded us that the wedding is about us. On the day of the wedding, she was so graceful and at ease, you couldn't help but just be excited and not worry. Since the ceremony, I have had individual sessions with her and plan on sustaining a relationship with her for years to come."

Marriage Makers - Rab Freeman -- A+++++

We both fell a little in love with our officiant Rab Freeman. She runs Marriage Makers and that was one of the best choices se made. She was open to our ideas (and some of ours were wacky), she reminded us over and over that it was our wedding not our parents', friends', families', etc. She did some light pre-wedding counseling. And she is a tough cookie with a soft heart. Our rehearsal day was atrocious and she took us aside separately and said and did all the right things. She was like mother, friend and fairy godmother all rolled into one. We want to get married again just so we can spend more time with Rab.

Dear Kathleen: At first, Mary & I thought that our officiant would be a figurehead, someone who didn't really mean anything, but who we had to have there. But then we met you. Both the ceremony you prepared and your presentation of it, truly enhanced our wedding, and we are both deeply grateful for the care you brought to it. Thank you so much for all your care. You made our wedding feel blessed.

Love Sam & Mary

Dear Kathleen: I told you the day of the wedding how beautiful the ceremony
was, but once again after being able to read and linger on the words I am
truly moved. Jane Anne and Kevin did well in choosing you to perform their
bonds. Thank you for your lovely words. I told Jane Anne and Kevin any
time they were angry with each other, to read these words again. I will
even incorporate them into my life. Thank you for making this such a beautiful day.

Patsy I Rieger (mother of the bride)

Dear Kathleen: Thank you for making our wedding so wonderful. Your energy and spirit was felt by all.

Love, Linda & Rick
