Ebany and Lee's Ceremony






Ebany and Lee were married at the 632 on Hudson. Such a beautiful venue for such a beautiful couple. Thank you Dreamlife for sharing your photos.



Dear Kim (+ baby bump)

Thank you so much for playing such a special role in our big day with such grace and passion! So amazing that we had two people marry us! You were a tremendous help and lovely calming presence.

Love,

Serena and Lonnie

Serena and Lonnie had their ceremony at Frankies 457 in Brooklyn. The couple had a great idea to make jam for their guests as wedding favors.


Kimberly Worley is a great officiant! She can perform all different types of services and she took the time to make our service personal and it turned out exactly as we wanted it to be. Not only that, but she offered to help with any last minute details on the day of wedding as well (she offered her video camera, worked with the staff at the restaurant where our wedding was, etc). I would highly recommend Kim for anyone's wedding!

Eamonn and Alyson's Ceremony






Eamonn and Alyson had a beautiful ceremony this fall at The Nelson A Rockerfeller Park on River Terrace. They included their adorable dog as a ring bearer.

Kim officated our small ceremony near the Hudson River in NYC. She helped to make our day perfect. She was incredibly easy to work with and clear in what she needed from us to put together a ceremony that was meaningful and reflected who we are. We are so happy to have met Kim and and will always remember that day.

Sincerely
Laurent and Esther Auzzino

wedding testimonial

Dear Kim,


I wanted to write you, and thank you personally for your exquisite
presence as our officiant.

The material you shared with us for the service gave us such a rich
template to work with, we were able to express everything we felt with a sense of independence while still making a nod to shared traditions...

Then on the day, when I came down late before the ceremony in an
overheated panic, you were instantly like a sister - or a guardian angel -
helping me to salvage my dress, a kindness that made every difference to my sense of composure, as I know you understood (!)

Finally you performed our ceremony with a voice and sense of poetry that expressed every nuance of understanding and purpose that we wished to communicate that day. Your eloquence and sensitivity created the perfect space in that garden for us all to reflect, and express our promises... I honestly can't remember when I ever felt so moved, or at peace, as when I was holding hands with groom and listening to those
beautiful words.

We will never be able to thank you enough for this perfect ceremony -- nor for the sunshine and blue skies, just as you predicted! With most sincere thanks, Kim, and warmest wishes to you for a happy & loving future.

Photo booth with props




I love this cute idea to add props to your photo booth so that your guests can get creative and have fun with their pictures.

Robbie and Eisen's Ceremony







Robbie and Eisen had a beautiful ceremony on the beach at Jacob Riis Park. Their closest family and friends joined them. The water, beach, and blue sky looked great with everyone looking so beautiful wearing white. Time and distance could not keep this sweet couple apart. Best of luck to you both.

Creative Boutonnieres

Couples are coming up with creative ways to have the groom express himself with his choice of boutonnieres. There are so many different elements that can be incorporated into the boutonnieres besides flowers and greenery.

Herbs, feathers, berries, twigs, leaves, ribbon, paper, origami, felt, buttons, crochet, and shells are some great materials that can be used.

Here is a really great and creative idea.
