Brooke from Marriage Mate was very accommodating when initially meeting with my fiance and I to begin the process of contracting an officiate. She also discussed and provided us many different vow structures and ways to include my fiance's children into the ceremony vows. Our family and friends (as well we) were VERY impressed with Brooke's ceremony choices, professionalism, and friendliness. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone getting married.

Brooke was very easy to work with and provided some great ideas for the Ceremony. One of which was including my husband's 13yr old son into the ceremony. We bought him a set of engraved dog tags that will remind him of us. We did not want to write our own vows, so she sent us over a hundred sample vows we could chose from.

She was amazing at helping us figure out what kind of ceremony we wanted. We shared a piece of our lives and she filled in the blanks with suggestions that were winners. Our wedding ceremony was wonderful!

Brooke is absolutely wonderful! She just did a wedding for us in the end of June. She gave us many options to choose from, including letting us ad our own "touch" to the ceremony. Brooke's website is very useful... there are many different ceremonies to choose from and you can even pay with Paypal, just makes a bride's hectic life a little easier!

I am soooo happy that we chose Brooke!! She is truly amazing. Funny and serious at all the right moments, she was just what we were looking for in an officiant. She made everything go so very smoothly and made people pay attention when they need a bit of organizing. We cannot thank her enough!!!!

We never met before our ceremony and The Marriage Mate made it seem seamless. She did a wonderful job at our ceremony. She kept it short, and made adjustments to our ceremony based on what our values were instead of traditional ones. I strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for an officiant. Thank you Brooke!

Brooke rocked our world. She read our wed site and she asked all the right questions to make sure our ceremony expressed who we were, how we felt, and the message we wanted our friends and family to hear. I have had so many comments and feedback from our guests about how this ceremony was the most beautiful and intimate they had ever attended. And she dressed for the occasion more appropriately then I could have imagined.
Not only did she master the ceremony, she was great at handling all the curve balls we sent her, like changing our venue last minute from Glacier Valley to Shuksan Mountain. She hung around for us to sign our wedding license when "somebody" forgot it back at the cabin.
We really enjoyed our chats with Brooke leading up to the wedding, and we would recommend her, if you want to look back on your moment as fondly as we do.

Brooke has the ability to take your rough idea of what you want and turn it into the perfect ceremony. If having an outdoor wedding, you might want to consider having Brooke wear a microphone as we had several guests, in the back, who could not hear everything.
Overall Brooke was wonderful!

Brooke did a wonderful job as our officiant--she came up with a fabulous ceremony that fit our wishes and our personalities perfectly. We got so many compliments on the Family Vow Ceremony that she added into the ceremony! She was very responsive to the questions we had after the ceremony and was very helpful in making sure things were correct on the final certificate. I recommend her highly.

Brooke was wonderful. She created a ceremony that fit our wishes perfectly, and did a fabulous job during the ceremony itself. And after the ceremony, when I found a small error on the commemorative wedding certificate, she immediately checked to make sure that the legal one was correct and sent us a new commemorative certificate. I very highly recommend her. When we had a couple of missed emails, she was very good about following up and checking to make sure that everything was going according to plan.

We were all very happy with Brooke Bakogeorge. She was extremely helpful and willing to work with us on short notice. She was able to offer us her expertise on the planning portion of the wedding. I felt that we were in very competent hands and with someone who wanted to work with us. She respected our culture and religious heritage and it reflected in the beautiful ceremony. I would highly recommend her.

Brooke was very helpful and friendly. She gave us SO MANY vows to choose from so we could really personalize our vows to each other. She was professional, very nice and genuine. She even gave us a keepsake package so we could look back on our vows later on. Thanks so much, Brooke!

Brooke was an absolute dream come true!! When I met with her my fiance was not present but I felt so confident with her that I knew she was "the one"! When I met with her she explained that she was pregnant and due right before our wedding but assured as that if we had to have a replacement she would make sure that everything went as smooth as if she were there herself. I emailed her numerous times over those few months leading up to the wedding and she was always so prompt at responding and answering every question I had. When she showed up for the rehersal she brought along our ceremony to go over and even changed it up with a mock comedy ceremony!! The day of the wedding she made sure that I was ok; that my nerves were settled. The ceremony was so beautiful and Brooke made my day so special. Brooke, thank you from the bottom of our hearts! You did an amazing job!!

We booked Brooke for our wedding almost 8 months in advance. She was always so plesent and willing to help with anything to do with the wedding via many emails or phone calls. The day we met Brooke she told us that she had just found out that she was going to be having a baby and that the due date was right around our wedding date. Brooke was very honest about the possablity that she would not be the one actually officiating at our wedding but that she had someone in mind just in case the baby came. My husband and I felt very comfortable with her and trusted that everything would go well. Brooke did end up having her baby girl the night before our wedding so she had michelle fill it. She was wonderful! In all our wedding was great and Brooke was a big part of that.

Brooke provided everything that I could possibly have imagined. She was very prompt in her responses and always attentive to our requests. When we forgot the marriage license at home (oops) she arranged to meet us the following day to sign it.
Also, her ceremony was AMAZING. We had numerous compliments on how beautiful it was, and it was absolutely perfect for us. I could not have pictured a more perfect experience.
