She has stolen $ 65,000.00 From me. It started with a $30,000 loan which I did allow, then when She could not pay me back in the time of the 1 yr contract. Which she drew up. , I had to get a lawyer. That was $35,000. The court date was February 27 2016, But she filed bankruptcy on February 23rd same month and. So if this is who you want for your Minister at your wedding. Go for it. But be cautious JMG read more

Terri was absolutely phenomenal! We searched high and low for the perfect officiant and Terri was exactly that! She provided us with a Google spreadsheet that we all could view and edit at the same time, and that made getting the ceremony figured out 10 times easier. She was always prompt and so sweet each time we reached out with a question. Terri made us feel like we had known her for years. The day of the ceremony, Terri arrived 30 minutes early and hung out on the beach while we had our photos taken. She used that time to fill out our marriage license for us without us even having to ask. She even went a step further and turned in the paperwork for us (and sent us a scanned copy) so that's one less thing we have to worry about. When it was time for the ceremony, she was fantastic! It felt like she was having a conversation with us instead of reading off of a paper. She had the great idea to have one of our kids record the ceremony with our phone. When it came time for the sand ceremony, it was a smooth phone/camera transition from my daughter to Terri. Terri took an awesome video of our family during the sand ceremony and also got some great views of our surroundings. Our ceremony couldn't have been more perfect. Terri made sure we had the best ceremony possible and that everything was smooth and easy for us. We appreciate everything she did for us! We highly recommend her!!! P.S. We got married at Table Rock Beach. Such a beautiful location! read more

I was married by Terri in 2017. It was a court wedding and she made it the smoothest process. I never felt so comfortable with someone. Her daughter did the notarizing and she officiated. It was a really beautiful ceremony. I am grateful for her expertise and kindness throughout the whole process! read more

My husband and I got married on August 1, 2015 by Terri. Two weeks before the wedding, my husband and I (being the procrastinators that we are) were trying to figure out who was going to marry us. Our original plans of having a family member marry us fell through and I went on panic mode. Thankfully for Yelp, I found Terri and sent her an e-mail. She responded quickly and she sent right over everything that we needed. Because we couldn't meet her in person before the wedding, we had the option of doing a video chat with her. We went through the template that she sent us. That process was super easy (delete to personalize). Although my husband and me grew up in religious households, we wanted to make this wedding about us and Terri was able to help us with that. Her template had a lot of options and even though you read it over with her...I swear! You will still make everyone cry at the wedding including yourself and your spouse! We wrote our own vows and it the topping off the cake. And honestly, our wedding couldn't have been more perfect. She arrived promptly and our guests loved her. Our moms were really touched by the rose ceremony that we did. Thank you again Terri for marrying us! You were amazing! - The Davisons read more

Mark officiated our intimate wedding few weeks ago and he was awesome! We started communicating with Terri & Mark way back January and they were very patient providing all the info's we'll need. I was halfway across the globe during the entire planning so communication was all done online yet on the day of our wedding they made us feel at ease with them. Thus, the ceremony turned out beautiful and heartfelt. We highly recommend this amazing couple. Thanks Mark & Terri! read more

Where do I start?! Terri is nothing short of AMAZING! I contacted Terry and we went back and forth via email for a week or so before we met, and during that time, she sent me samples of vows and asked some pertinent questions to get a better feel of my groom and I. Then, we met at her "office" in the Marina...which turned out to be on her boat! How awesome is that?! There, my groom, my 12-year old soon and I talked with Terri about things that were important to us during our wedding. She listened, took notes and more importantly, she got US. She understood the obstacles we were facing, the family issues and clashing between the two and most importantly, she understood how much it meant to me to have my son walk me down the aisle. She promised to make our crowd understand, as much as she possibly could, the importance of my son having that role in our wedding. Terri continued to email me after our initial meeting at her "office" and we went back and forth on our script before the big day until it was perfect. Prior to the start of the wedding, Terri came to find me and touch base to make sure I was holding up, and to talk with my son about his big role and to answer any questions he may have had, which was going above and beyond! Shortly after that, I met my groom down at the alter. Terri was amazing! She was very welcoming. She spoke to our guests and explained why I had my son walk me down the aisle, which some people didn't understand. At one point, some ducks were being noisy and she made a joke that had everyone laughing. She smiled, was kind, very poised, and incorporated so many aspects of my groom and I into our ceremony. And on 9/28/12 at around 6:30 in the evening, we were married! After the ceremony, while we were busy getting our pictures taken, Terri had gotten the required signatures for our license and she quietly made her exit. During the reception, I can't tell you how many people came up to tell us how amazing she was, some even asked if she was a relative, because it was like she knew us that well! And still, almost 2 months later, randomly, people that were at the wedding will bring her up and talk about how great she was! The VERY next day, she had emailed me a copy of the signed license and notified me that she had sent it off to the Recorder's Office and congratulated us again. We couldn't be more happy that we are with the ENTIRE process of having Terri marry us, from the initial email, to the wedding, to the emails after the wedding, inviting us to go hang out with her and go whale watching. Wow, who does that?! Terri does! read more

We are so glad that we went with Weddings by Terri for our wedding ceremony. Juliet was our officiant and she couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. We had one in-person meeting with her and it was pretty easy to tell that she was going to bring a positive attitude to our ceremony while not making things corny. While searching for an officiant, it was surprising and disturbing how many officiants think they should act like a stand-up comedian. Juliet on the other hand was very charming and respectful. After the meeting, we were sent an email with questions and options for what should be said leading up to the vows. Even though we strayed pretty far from the options listed, Juliet went through our ceremony perfectly. Not only was it a breeze to work with her, the service price is one of the best you can find. read more

Terri met us down on the beach at table rock beach in Laguna. She was so relaxed, funny and really helped calm our nerves. We would definitely recommend her to any friends or family who are looking to tie the knot in southern California or even in Hawaii. Big thanks Terri! Everything was so wonderful. read more

See all

Terri is amazing!!! From the beginning she was very involved and helpful. We eloped on the beach and she made everything so special - I'm so glad we went with her! It was a little last minute and she was very flexible and made sure it was everything we could have hoped for. STOP LOOKING - you found the best one!!! We are eternally grateful! read more

We found Terri on Yelp and she officiated our wedding in Dana Point in October. Even though our ceremony was tiny, there was still a lot of prep work and we were doing it from 2400 miles away. Since we do not live in the area we met with her twice via skype to discuss details and confirm plans. As many other reviewers have noted, Terri was prompt, prepared, funny, helpful, professional, and reassuring. I can't think of anything that would have made the whole process better or easier. We did not need another thing to worry about on our big day and are so very glad we found Terri. read more

Terri officiated our wedding this past April and she was just an absolute joy! As soon as we got on the phone with her - we knew she was the one - she's funny, upbeat and charismatic! We had a small wedding and we wanted it to be spiritual but non-denominational - she customized the ceremony to be exactly what we wanted and incorporated all the elements we wanted. Terri brought such a great energy to our wedding and everyone complimented us on what a great choice we had made - we were SO lucky to have found Terri! Thank you so much!!! read more

My wife and I used Terri for our wedding last week in Laguna Beach. She's professional, on time, took time to help us come up with the perfect vows, and even suggested venues for our wedding ceremony. I can't say enough good things about her or her service. If you're reading this, Terri should be your officiant! read more

We've been wanting to post this review for 11 months...better late than never right? We received SO many compliments about Terri after our wedding and how well spoken, charming and funny she is. She is truly a delight. Weddings by Terri is affordable, professional, extremely helpful and quick to respond via e-mail or phone call. We live in Arizona and got married in Dana Point and Terri made every step of the process seem super easy. One thing I found incredibly helpful was a wedding template in a word document that she sent me with a ton of wedding ideas from sample vows to wedding prayers/poems, etc. From the document we were able to easily customize our ceremony to fit US. We had an outdoor ceremony with 40 people and Terri brought along her own small PA system and microphone and everyone said the sound was perfect. I've been to so many weddings this year where the officiant stumbled over their words and forgot the names of the bride/groom and I have to say ours went off without a hitch. P.S. She also didn't give me a hard time about being super late to my own wedding ;-) read more

We had our wedding on the beach the day after Thanksgiving 2016 and Terri was able to accommodate us with the time and place! She was upbeat and made sure to get the paperwork together and situated for us. I really appreciated how accommodating she was because my husband and I did not live in the area. She made time for phone conferences and multiple emails. I am very grateful we found Terri to officiate our wedding. The day of, she was professional and organized! She had a great yoga teach voice, calm and soothing. It made my husband and I feel at ease. We were very happy and would recommend her to any of our friends on their big day!! read more

Was great very knowledgeable was able to set up a awesome wedding for my friend so friendly made a stressful day so easy helpful made suggestions found great spot for pictures made special day better thank you read more

Terri is phenomenal. She married my husband and I a few weeks ago. We are from Texas and we arranged all of this over the phone. We then met her a week before the wedding on her boat....so truly awesome! She has wonderful suggestions and is so open and personable. The best part, is that she made our wedding day magical. She guided us every step of the way with suggestions prior to our big day so it would be perfect. July 13, 2013 she met us on the beach that SHE had suggested and it seriously, could not have been any more better! She exceeded ALL of my expectations! All of my guests LOVED Terri and asked for her information. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anybody looking for somebody to lead you on your special day! Love you Terri!!! read more

Weddings are not the only thing Terri does. We hired her to officiate at our Memorial Service in Beverly Hills and she was fanatastic. Easy to talk to, very communicative, sensitive and caring without being over the top - she was exactly what we were looking for. The Service was short, very moving and lovely. After, many of the attendees told me how wonderful they thought she was and we concur. read more

Terri was our officiant for our 9/27/14 wedding in Dana Point. She was absolutely wonderful! Responds back very quickly to our emails. She makes you feel very comfortable with her. She did such a great job at our wedding that some of our guests thought we've been knowing her for years! Highly recommend her! read more

Terri is freaking AMAZING!!! From the very beginning we both fell in love with her. She made everything extremely easy and was super flexible and guided me in the right direction. She gave us TONS of examples of what we could do for our ceremony, which made the whole ceremony planning stress free. I definitely recommend her!!!! read more

Terri officiated our wedding last month. She is very nice, flexible, responds in a timely manner to emails and there are no hidden fees. The reason why I did not give 5 stars is because she arrived late to our ceremony. According to our initial consultation, she said she would arrive 30 mins prior (5:30pm) to ceremony to meet up with the bride and groom and go over the details. Our ceremony was scheduled to start at 6pm. Everyone, including the bride was ready to go down the aisle at 6pm. At 6:05pm, Terri was nowhere to be found. Luckily, our venue was nearby so she arrived shortly afterwards. When she arrived, she was not prepared and had to print some papers at the venue. Our ceremony probably started around 6:15pm which is not terribly late however, we had an outdoor ceremony in August and we didn't want our guests unnecessary waiting in the heat. During our consultation, we said that we wanted to start promptly on time because our ceremony schedule was from 6 to 6:30pm. During the ceremony reading, she added back a part that I had intentionally removed from the template. Besides that little detail, the ceremony reading was good. Overall, it was an unnecessary added stress to our wedding having everyone wait on the officiant. read more

Terri did an incredible job officiating our wedding in Woodland Hills. She was so easy to work with - she took all the work and stress out of planning the ceremony. She gave us a lot of options, sample vows, suppestions and was very accomodating to our special requests. I highly recommend her, she is very sweet and professional! You can tell that she really loves what she does. read more

although terri was not able to officiate our wedding herself, she made sure to tailor the ceremony to the our specific needs. whether it was adding more here or taking out less there, she was always open to it and her husband mark filled in and did a fine job the day of. a lot of the wedding planning was stressful but i can honestly say that this part was not. read more

We couldn't have asked for a better Wedding ceremony!! Starting with a well thought out website with helpful wedding locations, a ceremony template with many options for readings, vows, and ceremony styles, instructions for marriage license, Terri has it all covered! And then the meeting to review wedding plans on her boat in Dana Point Harbor- you really can't beat the location! And finally the ceremony day- I loved Terri's professional style, humor, flexibility, and sweet stories that made our Wedding Day so special! Our family thought it was the best ceremony they've ever attended, and a special appearance from a pod of dolphins spotted by Terri at the end of the ceremony is a lucky start to our new life together! read more

Terri officiated at my brother's wedding on May 9, 2014 on a bluff in Dana Point overlooking the ocean and harbor and it was lovely! It was a very small wedding so more informal than most, but truly inspirational and professional. She helped my brother and (now) sister-in-law in finding the venue and it couldn't have been more perfect. She even had a length of rope that she tied around their wrists at the end to signify 'tying the knot'. Humorous, fun, solemn, and educational....when she stopped the ceremony to point out a pod of Dolphins playing in the surf! I highly recommend Terri. read more

Terri was pure joy to work with!! We can't recommend her enough. She officiated our intimate wedding on the sands of Laguna and was there for us from start to finish. We're so grateful we found her so don't hesitate, book her now. read more

Terri presided over our wedding in August of 2016 and did so in a very professional manner from start to finish. She provided an informative, relaxing and comfortable venue customized to our wishes. She even did key portions of the ceremony bilingually in English and Spanish. Both of us were totally pleased in all aspects of our relationship with Terri and would highly recommend her. read more

Such a wonderful officiant! Made our day memorial and I absolutely can't say enough good things about Terri and Mark!
