Amazing, we love Rev. Dawn. She was the officiant at our wedding earlier this year. She also did pre-marital counseling for us. The ceremony was fantastic, intimate, personalized, funny. We really love how she pulled in parts of what we wrote to each other and made them into our vows. 100% the best "vendor" we had at our wedding read more

Working with Dawn has been a great experience! I found so much comfort in the thoughtfulness that goes into the questions she asks and statements she makes while working with you. Both my partner and I felt supported in telling our story. She provided a professional and open space for us. I feel so confident in her abilities to help us navigate difficult conversations, and I highly recommend her for relationship coaching! read more

We have worked with Dawn for several premarital counseling sessions, and we've loved how kind, empathetic, and open she is.

She will give you tools to improve the quality of your relationship and help you overcome the difficulties that a marriage can face. My husband and I would highly recommend her if you are looking to improve your relationship in any way. read more

I was extremely particular about searching for an officiant for my wedding. I'm Catholic and come from a mixed heritage background and my husband is Muslim. We wanted a balance of spiritualism and tradition that felt right for us. Rev Dawn helped us customize our ceremony, and, more importantly, made it EASY! Plus on the day of our wedding, we had a couple of incidents (last minute changes, the fire department came right before our start time, and we had an interruption during the ceremony). Rev Dawn kept us calm and collected throughout. She rolled with the punches in such a professional way. While I was in complete shock half the time, she kept the wedding going and smoothed everything over. I had at least 10 different people (bridal party & guests) tell me how awesome and wonderful she was. Seriously, I've had more positive feedback about her than the venue, attire, food, decor, etc. If you already have a vision of your ceremony or if you have absolutely no idea where to start, I highly recommend Rev Dawn. Either way, she'll guide you towards creating the most beautiful, heartfelt ceremony. read more

Reverend Dawn, Thank you so much for being a part of our marriage journey. She began as our premarital counselor and then became our wedding officiant. She was able to guide us perfectly in all aspects. She was able to help us navigate some of our challenges before our wedding day which made for a smoother transition into our marriage. Our ceremony was absolutely perfect. I loved how the ceremony told a story and was delivered in a way that gave our family and friends a background on our love story. Our guests really enjoyed our ceremony and hearing a snip-it of our journey through Rev. Dawn. We look forward to seeing her at our next family member's wedding in 2023.

My wife found Rev. Dawn to be our wedding officiant and we couldn't have had a better experience. From the very start, she was incredibly helpful and responsive. We were super specific about what we wanted incorporated into our ceremony, and Rev. Dawn helped us craft the perfect ceremony. She also does a great job of helping you keep your vows personal, and truly expressing what you love about your partner. Our wedding day was incredibly stressful as my wife and I were trying to juggle two cultures mixing. I can't express how much Rev. Dawn helped calm our nerves. Everything from unexpected interruptions to fire alarms, she handled with such calm and grace. Honestly, we had been looking for an interfaith/progressive officiant for a good year and Rev. Dawn was a blessing. Not only does she have an incredible knowledge of working with many different religious backgrounds, but she also made everyone at our wedding feel united. I know this sounds cheesy but I felt this moment of spiritual unity during our ceremony! Would highly recommend, and thank you Reverend Dawn! read more

Hiring Rev. Dawn will be the best decision you make..... No, seriously. Rev. Dawn married us on 9/22/18. Her process for creating the perfect ceremony was extremely thorough and thoughtful customized just for us. She delivered more than we expected in every way. During meetings she offered priceless suggestions and wisdom, calmed our nerves, and showed such patience and knowledge about her craft. She has truly found her calling. The moment we met Rev. Dawn she put us at ease. Even after planning, on the day, we were blown away and so impressed with the authentic and original ceremony she developed for us. The amount of care and effort she put into our ceremony was above and beyond our expectations. On the day of the ceremony, she was punctual and attentive. During the ceremony, she spoke with great delivery, comedic timing, and made our guests FEEL our moment. Guests could not stop talking about how unique our ceremony was and how much they cried (yay!). I am so grateful that we found Rev. Dawn, she truly set the tone for making our day a magical wedding experience for us and our guests (they still talk about how amazing she was). Thank you so much, Rev. Dawn!! read more

Relationship Coach Dawn - So much love + gratitude for Rev. Dawn!!! - Life Coach Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

In early June this year, was my special day, the day I got married to my husband. Rev Dawn was our incredible officiant who made our ceremony unforgettable. My husband and I are ethnically and culturally very different. Rev Dawn helped us with the ceremony in such way that it highlighted our spiritual connection and love for one another while resonating with both of our families that arrived from two completely different parts of the planet. She is charismatic and has a presence that magnifies the significance of the moment, while filling the heart with calm and warmth. Rev Dawn encouraged us to personalize our ceremony, to include the descriptions of our feelings for one another - and I am so glad she did! She is an expert at what she does, has a unique sensitivity to human nature, emotions and feelings. She is full of knowledge, encouragement and faith - and I have absolutely no reservations in recommending Rev Dawn. I have no doubt, that those who had a pleasure to work with Rev Dawn, feel lucky to have chosen her! read more

Rev dawn is the most reliable , kind , patient person I have ever met. From the first time we spoke I knew right away she was perfect.

She's also bilingual which was a perk for us. I highly recommend Dawn . read more

Rev Dawn was the perfect fit as our officiant! She spent so much time helping us create our vows and making our ceremony personal to us. Everyone was in tears and it was such a deep and meaningful experience. We highly recommend her! read more

We're so happy we hired Reverend Dawn to officiate our wedding. In the preparation stages she had great suggestions on readings and how to make the ceremony flow. She was also very open to our ideas. The best part; Rev. Dawn speaks French and Spanish! So my wife and I were able to have parts of the ceremony in those languages to honor our respective heritages. On the day of, Rev. Dawn had everyone in tears! We stopped counting how many guests came up to us to praise her oratory (and language) skills. We'd like to thank her for accompanying us on this very important day. We'll remember it for the rest of our lives! read more

Rev. Dawn married my husband and I on February 10, 2018. From the first conversation we had with Rev. Dawn we knew she had to marry us. During the preparation stages she communicated with us in a timely manner, which is always a big plus for a bride. She provided us with wedding planning materials that was very helpful, she walked us through the whole process step by step, and allowed us to make our ceremony our own. She's very sweet, kind, professional, organized and has a very pleasant voice. She speaks Spanish so that was a huge plus for us. On the day of our wedding she had many of our guests in tears. Our guests were saying that it was the most "real" wedding ceremony they have ever been to. Rev. Dawn will always have a special place in our heart. read more

Reverend Dawn exceeded all of our expectations! My partner and I wanted to include religious components in our ceremony and did not want to use a judge. We found Reverend Dawn online and after we met her, we immediately knew we wanted her to perform our ceremony. Rev. Dawn was extremely flexible in working with our requested dates and helped us design a ceremony that perfectly matched what we wanted represented in this important event! She is kind, sincere, gentle, professional and demonstrated such care with this important event. I highly recommend!! read more

I was so happy to find Reverend Dawn for our ceremony. I was very disheartened during my search for an officiant; we really wanted a non-religious ceremony, but even officiants who professed to be secular still seemed to have a religious overtone upon closer examination. Dawn was so open to any kind of ceremony, and has tons of experience with all walks of life and persuasions. My husband and I had to work with Dawn from afar, as we were planning our Atlanta wedding from Jersey City. She was so awesome about speaking with us over the phone, which was much appreciated. She gave us so many options for every part of the ceremony; from the readings to the announcement of us as a couple, I really feel like we totally designed our ceremony uniquely for us. It was incredibly intimate and powerful. Dawn helped us to be present in the moment, and realize and recognize that we were truly in a very special moment. Also, we were concerned about the lack of religion given the fact that we had quite a few more traditional folk in attendance. Everyone was full of praise for Dawn, and commented on how beautiful the ceremony was. It really is a true testament to how great Dawn is. I highly recommend Dawn for any kind of ceremony you might envision. She adapts so easily, and is incredibly willing to help you figure out what works best for both you and your family. I am so grateful for her presence at our wedding. read more

It was such a relief to find Rev. Dawn to Officiate our wedding and help us with marriage counseling. My husband and I are not very religious but we have a very religious family that is Catholic/Baptist. We wanted a ceremony that represented both who were are and our families--plus we needed it to be bilingual. Rev. Dawn offered all of this and more. We decided to do Pre- Marital counseling with Dawn becasue we didn't want to do a religious based one and we wanted one that was tailored to our relationship of already 7 years together. Dawn was amazing, she gave us amazing exercises to do at home to work out our problems, she gave helpful tools to organize our lives and really made us understand each other more then we ever had. It was truly an amazing experiece and I believe we are in a better place in our relationship becasue of it. The ceremony was just beautiful, Dawn listened to all our needs and had many reccomendations to making our ceremony perfect. Dawn helped us design the perfect ceremony for us and it was completely stress free. My wedding guests are still talking about how special, unique and intimate our wedding ceremony was. I HIGHLY recommend Dawn for any ceremony you might need and Pre-Marital counseling. She is very helpful, thoughtful and is willing to help you with anything you might need. read more

Reverend Dawn was the best officiant ever! We researched high and low for a non-denominational person to marry us, and after many months found Rev. Dawn. There were so many reasons why she was a perfect match for us, so here is a list of things that made us choose her. 1. She is bi-lingual! Actually she is tri-lingual (English, Spanish, and French), but we were looking for someone to officiate our ceremony in English and Spanish and she nailed it! 2. With tons of guidance from Dawn, we were able to tailor the entire ceremony to our style which was a mix of spiritual, and romantic, and cultural. My husband and I were both raised catholic, in Mexican households, but we no longer practice religion. Since we deviated entirely from tradition, we struggled with finding a way make our parents feel comfortable and relatable to the ceremony. Rev. Dawn worked with us to brainstorm ideas, and mix-match her experience with our cultural requests. She even recommended we have a rock ritual embedded in the ceremony to make sure our selected guests felt they contributed to our marriage in the way we knew they did. We had a small (by Mexican standards) guest list and she saw our vision in making them feel special, without making it a traditional wedding ceremony. 3. We got married in a park in Los Angeles, and she was more than happy to officiate there. 4. She met with us in person, scheduled several calls, and responded to emails quickly to make sure that we had all our questions answered, that we revised the final script for the ceremony together, and that we were comfortable with the ceremony. 5. She was very patient with us. This was our first marriage (and last) and had so many questions. She listened to us, answered our questions, guided our thoughts and concerns, and really made us feel like we deserved to have a ceremony completely tailored to us. 6. She let us pick her outfit. Really! I had not even considered that as an option, but she did ask if we had a preference in her suits/dresses and her stole. She told us the significance of all her stoles, which made us feel empowered to pick one that resonated with us. 7. Our friends and family have shared that this was "the most beautiful" ceremony they have witnessed and they could feel the love that was captured in the script. Overall, it felt extra special knowing that my husband and I thoughtfully crafted the ceremony that would make us one union. I could not have asked for a better person to officiate our wedding ceremony. I HIGHLY recommend Rev. Dawn. She really does have a seventh sense! read more

Reverend Dawn was the officiant for our July 2nd, 2011 wedding, and we could not have had a better experience. She is the consummate professional - meeting with us twice before the wedding, and doing a run-through over the phone two days before. I've gotten so many compliments on our ceremony - on how personalized it was, and that parts of it were bilingual (Dawn is fluent in Spanish! and my husband is Chilean, so it was important for us that it be in both languages). Neither my husband nor I had much time to do research for the ceremony, but Dawn provided wonderful suggestions, and readings, and even wrote up a brief statement in support of gay marriage that we wanted to include in the service. We highly recommend her for anyone planning a wedding! read more

Rev. Dawn was absolutely everything we were looking for in a wedding officiant! She really helped alleviate the anxiety we were feeling about the ceremony, simply by being so professional and organized. Our guests were also impressed, and several went out of their way to ask me where I found her, or comment on her soothing speaking voice. Lol. LOVE HER! read more

Thank you very much Dawn, we had a beautiful ceremony and everything happened very smoothly. It was easy to work with you and the fact that you are bilingual english and french really made it easier for both our families. We are very grateful and strongly recommend your services. JV & Tiffany read more

We looked around for many wedding officiants and we were very impressed to read about Reverend Dawn's extensive experience as a wedding officiant.  We also felt a sincere connection towards her spiritual beliefs. We knew that Rev Dawn would bring together a beautiful wedding ceremony as well as incorporating our beliefs in a creator. While searching for a marriage officiant, we found numerous potential candidates that looked decent but most didn't quite seem to have the experience we had in mind.  We wanted someone who had what it took to get through any unexpected situation in an outdoor setting. Someone who could adapt.....for example: Our ceremony location was not cleared until the very last minute but Rev. Dawn was very understanding and patient, during the ceremony the book of readings fell on the floor due to the wind but her concentration did not waiver, Rev Dawn corrected my wife (in a way that our guest didn't notice) when grabbing the ring with the wrong hand. I also liked how Rev Dawn walked us through the entire ceremony process step by step (being new to all this we definitely needed hand holding). She also answered all of our little questions despite all of the details that we requested that she incorporated into our wedding ceremony... Such as choosing music to play while walking down the aisle or suggesting that we use a bouquet of succulent flowers instead of a traditional bouquet made of common flowers. She gave tons of these little ideas that weren't a part of the package we chose but that with her years of experience she recommended and they made a huge difference for the ceremony.  We loved her willingness to share her many suggestions and recommendations. Also, our ceremony took place outdoors and she was very open to having the ceremony outdoors regardless of possible high temperatures that afternoon.  In the end, our ceremony was lovely and our guests were also very impressed. read more

Rev Dawn faciliated premarital counseling sessions for us before our big day. She was kind, patient, and positive and we always looked forward to meeting with her. Then, she officiated our wedding and it could not have been more perfect! She offers customized packages so that our wedding ceremony was exactly how we wanted it. We got so many compliments about how personal and romantic our ceremony was. We felt so comfortable with her and it made our day even more special. We cannot thank her enough !! read more

Reverend Mercy Monroe was the perfect touch that our wedding day needed. She was always so great when meeting with us and making sure that our vows were going to be PERFECT for our special day. We are so happy to have met such a sweet soul and would recommend her services to ANYONE and EVERYONE! Thank you Mercy! read more

Rev. Dawn has been a pivotal person in all my family's major life events. She first married my husband and myself in April of 2012. She then performed a baby blessing for both of my boys in 2014 and 2017. She also helped my family find amazing readings for a celebration of life for the passing of my cousin. Rev. Dawn works so hard to make each of her events personal to each client, unique, and beyond heartfelt. I am beyond grateful to have had her at some of the biggest moments in my life. I can't recommend Rev. Dawn enough. You will not be disappointed! read more

I can't say enough about how amazing Rev. Dawn is. We got married over two months ago (10.18.14) and I still have guests who approach me to compliment the unique ceremony, her officiating, and the incredible job she did in three languages. You read that right- Rev. Dawn officiated our wedding ceremony in English, French AND Spanish- and so beautifully, with such poise, that our guests from all over the world were not only impressed, but touched. From the minute I found Rev. Dawn (I still think it was a mini-miracle) I knew she would be perfect for our non-religious, multicultural, lighthearted wedding ceremony. She was very easy to work with and helped guide us through the process to create something special- just for us. She worked hard to make sure we were happy and comfortable with every aspect of the ceremony, and paid particular attention to the languages and assuring the words carried the correct tone and meaning. When I look back on our wedding day, it makes me emotional to remember it all and I feel lucky that we found Rev. Dawn to marry us. read more

We enlisted Dawn in premarital counseling after seeing her officiate a good friend's wedding and we couldn't be happier with the decision. As an audience member of the ceremony she officiated, we were incredibly and moved by her ability to convey the couple's story and love for one another. After the wedding, she was the highlight amongst our friend group for the positive energy and love that she brought to the ceremony. Several of us actually said, "we absolutely need her for our own wedding." With that experience, my fiancé and I reached out to Dawn to officiate our own wedding and to guide us in premarital counseling. What I can say is that Dawn has lent us indispensable insight on how to navigate the hard days of a relationship--whether it be current or in the future. We can't recommend her enough--it's hard to see us embarking on this journey without going through some semblance of the exercises that Dawn has us run through in our sessions. I'm personally eternally grateful to Dawn for helping me understand what my partner needs better and for helping my partner do the same. Therapy, counseling, etc. can feel a little daunting or awkward to start at times but Dawn's empathic demeanor and energy can make a lot of the unease in letting a stranger into your relationship completely dissipate. If you're even slightly curious about any sort of premarital counseling or business coaching, I would strongly urge you to give call a Dawn for at least an initial consultation. read more

We wanted our ceremony to be one of the highlights of our wedding. Initially I wanted someone we knew to officiate our wedding but after getting turned down a couple of times by different friends due to stage fright we went online to find an officiant. I was very bummed because I felt like getting a stranger to officiate the wedding lost the personal touch that I wanted to have for our ceremony. There was nothing I could do but hire someone we didn't know. My partner found Rev. Dawn online and showed me her website. I did some research and read some of her reviews and we decided to schedule a call with her. I am usually very pessimistic so I did not have high hopes for our call but after we spoke she put ALL my doubts at ease. After our call I had the same feeling I had when I found my wedding dress. We found our officiant for our wedding and I was super excited! We went back and forth via email and phone calls to create the ceremony of our dreams. We were even able to dress Rev. Dawn. lol After our wedding day our family and friends called us and every person mentioned our ceremony and how unique it was. They mentioned what an amazing job our officiant did. She had a welcoming presence and was well spoken. I am so happy we choose Reverend Dawn instead of a close friend or relative. I can't wait for her to do our vow renewal in 20 years! read more

Rev. Dawn officiated our wedding in June and we could not be more grateful. A little background on my husband and I: I am not religious but consider myself spiritual. My husband grew up Christian but doesn't practice his faith anymore. It was important for him though to be married by a reverend. Also our relatives are a mix of Christian and Buddhist...so we did a lot of research to find someone who could accommodate all of that and we came across Rev. Dawn. We had our first meeting and immediately I was drawn to her positive energy. She is very friendly, charismatic and passionate about what she does. In addition to that I appreciated that she was very organized and provided us with all the necessary information up front. We decided to go with the personalized vows and yes it's a little more expensive, but I think it is totally worth it. She worked closely with us to polish up our vows and personalize our ceremony. In the end I believe we came up with a beautiful ceremony that really reflected who we are as a couple. On the day of the wedding, we actually had a small mishap with our ceremony mic not working, but Rev. Dawn handled it so well. After the ceremony no one even mentioned the mic, but instead just raved about how wonderful the ceremony was. We thank Rev. Dawn for sharing our special day with us! read more

Dawn was an amazing officiant for our Malibu wedding. She is eloquent and poised, and she gave us tons of great ideas for crafting our ceremony. All of our guests raved about our ceremony and loved how bespoke it was and how well it reflected our personalities and tastes. I recommend Dawn to anyone looking for a personalized ceremony and experience. read more

Reverend Dawn really helped make our ceremony something special. We were so focused on our reception and all the other details of our wedding day, we were pretty much taking our ceremony for granted. Thanks to Reverend Dawn, however, she helped mold our ceremony into something very personal and unique. There was a balance of humor and seriousness. The length of the ceremony was perfect. We highly recommend Reverend Dawn. Go with the option to write your own vows with her help. read more

Dawn officiated our small wedding earlier this year. She was amazing to work with for both planning the ceremony and during premarital counseling. She helped us produce a very intimate and unique wedding that blended together our personalities and different cultural backgrounds. We also completed premarital counseling with her. I am very glad we did this with her. I feel that it gave a solid foundation to our marriage. I would definitely recommend her! read more

Rev. Dawn was the officiant for our July 23, 2010 wedding and she did a wonderful job. At both our initial meeting and our planning meeting she carefully listened to everything we had to say and gave us guidance to make our ceremony everything we wanted it to be. With her help we created a very nontraditional wedding with a few laughs to keep our guests awake and Rev. Dawn kept right up with our quirky sense of humor. read more

Reverend Dawn is amazing! My Husband and I were married on October 18 in Atlanta and Reverend Dawn was our officiant. She brought such a special element to our wedding.
