She was the first officiant we interviewed, after which we cancelled our other appointments. She posed questions to us that we had not articulated the answers to ourselves in the 11+ years we had been together, and we came away feeling we knew each other more deeply. On the day of the ceremony, she was cheerful and engaged, and she positively exuded sincerity and depth of purpose. When we approached the altar where Reverend Bonnie waited for us, she placed her hand over her heart and–visibly moved–whispered “The LOVE in this room is incredible.” And it was. We will always be grateful to Reverend Bonnie for the bright light of happiness she provided for our wedding day, and we wish her every blessing in her own life and work.
