Johanna was nothing but professional for our wedding. She was able to meet with us several times and always helped us feel at ease as we discussed the details of our wedding. The ceremony went off well and I kept getting many compliments on how the words of our ceremony fit us well.......meaning Johanna chose the right words to say after only knowing us a short time.She did an amazing job and I would recommend her to any bride looking for a great officiant who can make her wedding day extra special.

Everyone said that our ceremony was the most unique and special one they had witnessed. Johanna wanted our ceremony to be *ours* and let us tweak and edit until we were happy.

An Event to Remember and Johanna was a most wonderful experience. Johanna was so very professional and caring. She did everything to make my Scottish Wedding the most wonderful occasion ever. She was very aware of the different Scottish traditions and was able to put them in our ceremony.

Johanna provided us with an amazingly beautiful ceremony. She was professional from our first contact through the end of our ceremony. She incorporated everything we wanted into the ceremony, and worked exceptionally well with our "wedding coordinator". We were so happy with the service and professionalism she provided for us.

I can not say enough nice things about Johanna - we had a very simple ceremony - eloped, so no family or friends were present. I was not expecting the thoughtful ceremony she put together and gave us a lovely copy of it afterwards. She was great! I highly recommend her.

She is pretty much amazing!! Was on time and had a great personality. She willingly made the treck down to cape mears lighthouse (twice) and put up with my obnoxious wedding party (groomsmen). The best!

Joanna was the easiest of all my wedding vendors to work with. She designed the perfect ceremony for my husband and I. She was very easy to work with and get ahold of when I needed to. She conducted our wedding rehersal like a pro making it quick and easy for the attendants to understand. She is well worth the money she charges and then some!

Johanna was so helpful the day of the wedding, which was a little chaotic due to the rain, but she was there 100 percent to help with set up and preparation. I loved her services so much that I recommended her to my best friend who will be using her this coming Monday for her wedding, too.Jesse Mushaney

Johanna is professional and personal. She respected our values and our wishes. We met with Johanna a couple of months before the wedding and liked her immediately. She was a pleasure to work with and our wedding coordinator loved working with her, too.

Johanna is awesome! She is very down-to-earth and relaxed, wonderful to work with with. She was very helpful getting everyone together and keeping such a tense and stressful situation relaxed and fun. We highly recommend using her services.

My wedding location was almost a nightmare. When we booked the location it was with a wonderful wedding coordinator that was part of the location fee, however she left and so did the service. My wedding was June 20th, 2009 and it rainned. My outdoor service suddenly became an indoor one. The first Person I saw as Johanna. She was waiting for me even through she wasn't suppose to be there until 6. She helped unload my car (which the location was suppose to do) listen while I told the caturing staff what I wanted done with the flowers and candels then took the box of sand ceramony items and our rememberance candle and told me get ready I can handle this. She set up chairs, arranged the front for us, ordered everyone around and left both myself and my maid of honour to get ready and not worry. I truely belive that she saved my wedding.While none of this was in her contract, nor was it asked of her, she went above and beyond. She gave us a shadow box for our handfasting cords and a wonderful book with our vows in it (the same one she used during our service).During the month before our wedding I would tell her I think I want this and she would add it to the service, she was great and putting me a ease and making me feel like I was the only bride she had to work with. If you want someone who truely loves what she does, and is willing to go to any lengh to give you your dreams that you should look no further. You have found the best.Denise & Roger Lancaster

Joanna did a great job making our special day perfect. She was very professional and helpful. The book that she gives you with all yours vows that you picked and the marriage licenses was great! I would highly recommend her to anyone.

We were so impressed with An Event to Remember. Johanna worked with us to capture our story and get to know us even though we did not meet until the day of the wedding. She provided us with a memory book that included our ceremony words, our wedding certificate, and pages for photos. She was flexible with time and it was obvious that she put her heart into creating a ceremony to fit us. Would highly recommend Johanna and An Event to Remember.

We loved Johanna as our officiant. She was available on short notice and asked the right questions to give us exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. Very professional and informative!

I just want to say that Rev. Johanna Respini came to our rescue when we only had one month left until the wedding date! She was able to organize the ceremony and help with our vows and ceremony choice. And when nothing seemed to be going right, she was right there to help fix it. Words can't describe how thankful we are to have had Johanna be the one to join us together for now and forever!
