Helen & Jessica

Shannon brought a depth and beauty to our wedding that went far beyond officiating. She brought calm where there was nervousness, beauty where there was uncertainty, and a grounding presence that changed everything.

On the day of our rehearsal, when I was overcome with nerves, she turned every butterfly into a steady heartbeat. In her presence, I knew with certainty that everything would be beautiful.

Her quiet strength, her calm assurance, and her genuine love created a space where we could be fully present and at ease. It is a rare gift to encounter someone whose spirit radiates so purely and so generously. Shannon carries that gift, and it changes the people around her.

For this, and for all that she gave to us on our wedding day, we are endlessly grateful. Thank you, Shannon. Truly, deeply, thank you.

We had the pleasure of having Shannon Wilson officiate our wedding in Kelowna BC at Harvest Golf Course, and we are beyond grateful for the experience. From the very first meeting via Zoom, we could tell she was the perfect fit for us. She took the time to really get to know our story and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. She was organized, efficient, and knew what questions we had in mind before we even asked!

On our big day, Shannon was calm, organized, and so warm and professional. My husband and I were nervous and probably made some mistakes along the way, but Shannon guided us gracefully. The ceremony was beautiful, meaningful, and heartfelt. It felt so personal, and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to start this new chapter of our lives.

I would highly recommend Shannon to be your marriage commissioner; she truly cares about creating a memorable experience, and we can’t recommend her enough. Thank you for making our wedding day in Kelowna unforgettable!

Luca & Ricardo

My partner and I were connected with Shannon through a representative of the Kelowna LGBTQIA+ Rainbow Community after we felt a bit lost in finding a marriage celebrant to officiate our wedding. As a gay couple, it was incredibly important to us that whoever stood beside us on our special day not only accepted but genuinely celebrated our love and commitment to one another.

From our first meeting with Shannon, we felt an immediate connection that assured us she was the perfect person to officiate our ceremony. Words cannot adequately express the gratitude we feel for having Shannon as our marriage celebrant. Throughout our journey to the altar, Shannon provided genuine emotional support, taking time out of her day to send thoughtful messages that eased our pre-wedding anxieties and offering heartfelt reminders about the significance of the commitment we were making.

In the moments leading up to the ceremony, we were both incredibly anxious, and I can truthfully say that without Shannon’s support, we might have dissolved into a puddle of nerves! Her gentle reassurance and calming presence helped ground us, turning those jittery moments into memories we now look back on with laughter.

Shannon truly embodies her role as a marriage celebrant with passion and dedication. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple seeking someone who will invest in making their union meaningful. Thank you, Shannon, for elevating our special day and helping create memories that will last a lifetime.
