Milestones

70th Birthday

Mara Whitridge, Edgewater, FL

"I had my doubts about having a celebration with my diverse group of friends, many of whom did not know each other because they came from different parts of my life. Cheri assured me that a Celebrant ceremony would create an environment that focused on celebrating me while allowing my friends to also get to know each other. She was right. In the days following the party, I received phone calls from my guests who said it was an amazing night and that they had a great time. It was the best birthday I ever had."

Blessings

Sarah and Jonathan Lund, Edgewater, FL

"Buying our first home was overwhelming. But once we got settled into our new home, we wanted to celebrate and really make it "home." We decided to ask Cheri to do our House Blessing ceremony during our Housewarming Party with family and friends. Cheri created a magical, fun and meaningful ceremony that captured all of our hopes and dreams for our new home. She helped us mark this occasion by bringing good thoughts, energy, and prayers to bless our home."

"We recently celebrated a Ribbon Cutting with the Chamber of Commerce for the new location of Heart Strings Breast Care and Women's Boutique in New Smyrna Beach.

Dr. Cheri Erdman made the event really special and set it aside from other Ribbon Cuttings, by calling the hearts and minds to silence with her small gong and speaking a blessing over the business, its owners and clients.

The feedback from the visitors that day was that they hadn't experienced a celebration like that and where very much touched and moved by it. All around the comments were positive.

I personally felt the blessing like a cloak around me as it resonated through the whole room, the sound of the gong like parentheses holding it together.

Thank you so much - Cheri!"

Couples Ceremonies

Victoria and Cody Berg, Honolulu, HI

"We really can't thank you enough for the beautiful ceremony. It captured everything we wanted it too about our relationship: it was funny, it was sweet, it was sentimental, it was perfect.  If you have any one you on the fence for using you as an Officiant, just send them our way. We'll sing your praises at the top of our lungs. Thank you again, so much!"

Alicia Fuss and Colin Peterson, Nashville, TN

"We extend our deepest gratitude for your guidance through the process of creating our ceremony. The most important part of our wedding day was, thanks to you, exactly what it should have been. Thank you for your time and energy -- it means more than we can express."

Erin and Josh Perlini, Longwood, FL

"Thank you so much for doing a superb job on our ceremony. Somehow you translated every word into exactly what we wanted to hear on our wedding day. The ceremony Keepsake was such a nice touch. We will surely recommend you."

David and Susan Stirling, County Down, Northern Ireland

"When we decided to renew our wedding vows we wanted the whole experience to be enjoyable and memorable and using Cheri as our Celebrant was a perfect choice. From the very first e-mail we found her to be helpful in getting everything in place for us, picking the right location and putting together a beautiful ceremony which included our children. With thanks to Cheri we had the most enjoyable and memorable day that we will never forget. "

Robin and Lou Lafond, Orlando, Florida

"We enjoyed working with Cheri immensely. She was professional and timely. Our ceremony was beautifully written, very romantic and included everything we wanted our guests to know about our story. Our guests raved about the service. Thank you for making our wedding day the happiest day of our lives."

Jeff & Amy Nickel, Lake Mary, Florida

"Jeff and I have received nothing but compliments on our ceremony. Cheri
understood that our special moment was about our love, our families, and our friends. She incorporated our special moments with perfectly paired
readings that helped our guests feel the love that we shared as a couple. A
dear friend came to me after the wedding and stated that she had never been
to a ceremony before where she felt love. Cheri knew what we wanted; she
made our day exactly what we wanted it to be."

Amber and Brian Bill, Rochester, Minnesota

"Thank you so much for putting our ceremony together so nicely. Our family really liked the Sand Ceremony (now called the “love sand” in our house!). The photos turned out amazing thanks to your working so nicely with Jason, our photographer."

Robin and Jeff Williams, Ormond Beach, Florida

"We wanted to tell you how fantastic you were at our wedding. So many of our friends and family told us how wonderful you were and how much they enjoyed the ceremony. Thank you for being a part of our special day."

Casey Barnhart and Bobby-Jo Cameron, Deltona, Florida

"To simply say “thank you” would not be enough. We truly appreciate the time and effort you put in to composing such a beautiful ceremony for us. All of our guests had nothing but great things to say about you. Everyone could hear you clearly and some felt like you knew us previously because of the personal touches you included. That was absolutely wonderful!

Also, we believe that our families came to the ceremony unsure of what to expect since our union will not be legally recognized. With the commitment ceremony you created, we feel that everyone walked away with a lasting impact of the validity of our commitment.

Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You made our special day absolutely perfect."
