Testimonials
Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working with wonderful couples and have helped them create their own special ceremony.
"Brenda was referred to me and from our first communication she was lovely, thorough and kind, all the qualities you are looking for in a marriage officiant.
Every step of the journey Brenda helped but didn't hover which we especially appreciated and quickly answered any questions we had.
We highly recommend Dolce Vita. Even the name made us smile.

“Brenda was the officiant for our July 13 wedding at the Isabel Bader Centre in Kingston.
We LOVE her!!
She's kind, funny, and helped keep us (two folks that don't love being the centre of attention) calm.
Highly recommended.
Thank you for everything, Brenda :)”

My husband David and I had Brenda as our officiant on our wedding day and she was absolutely fantastic!
We first connected with Brenda about 3 months before our wedding day. Right from the start she was very helpful in answering our questions and customizing our ceremony to fit our vision. She was very organized and helped us get a lot of the administrative pieces completed prior to our wedding day. She responded to any of our questions in a timely manner.
On the day of our wedding she ensured that our ceremony went smoothly and just as we had planned.
We would recommend Brenda to anyone who is looking for a wedding officiant.
Thanks again Brenda!

Hi Brenda,
I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you again for everything you did for David and I at the wedding.
The ceremony was absolutely perfect, you made David and I feel so comfortable!
If there was ever a way to make a bride and groom less nervous for their wedding ceremony, I'd say you're the secret to accomplishing it!
I hope you had as much fun as we did, and I will not hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking to get married! Thank you so much again,
Sarah"

"Brenda Hamilton was the perfect choice to serve as our Marriage Officiant.
She is experienced, professional and served as a mentor to selecting the best options for what we wanted in our wedding and ceremony. Brenda provided a comprehensive list of professionals who provided many other services required for a successful wedding experience. We also received an outline of the wedding ceremony with lists of many sample wordings to help us design our personal wedding vows. As we progressed through the process Brenda answered any questions and provided support positively.
On the wedding day, her poise, confidence and ready smile helped reduce any tension we might have felt. The flow and timing were perfect and every step and detail accounted for.
Brenda, you were a pleasure to work with as you guided us through the process. We highly recommend that others follow in our footsteps and choose you for their wedding officiant.
Thank you for making our day so special."

"Brenda was an incredible officiant!
We are so happy we chose her.
We had to postpone our wedding a few times due to covid and she was very understanding each time we postponed and was more then helpful.
We loved the fact that she allowed us to be part of planning the ceremony and being able to customize it.
Thank you so much Brenda!
And for anyone looking for an officiant, Choose Dolce Vita!
