Frequently asked questions
What is the process?
By finding out what you appreciate about your relationship and each other, ways you enjoy sharing time together, shared values, backstory, etc., we weave this into themes and what is important to you to create a unique ceremony. It's not just the words, it's the comfortable feeling we're creating.
Why hire Didier to officiate the wedding?
Because of years of experience, friendly and genuine service, real human connection, and passion and care I put into crafting ceremonies. I listen and do all I can to help couples and their guests feel at ease. You are going to get a ceremony that is personalized, meaningful, insightful, comfortable, and reaches the hearts of all your guests. Although the ceremony is intended for the couple, it also has a positive impact on family and friends.
What are the challenges of getting to the islands?
Most people get to the San Juan Islands by ferry; some come by plane (even by bi-plane). You can drive or walk on the ferry. There are several options for getting around without a car. There is a shuttle from mainland airports to the Anacortes ferry terminal.
On which island should I get married?
Each island has its unique natural and cultural character. They all have great venues to choose from. I can find out what your preferences are and help you decide which island would be best for you and your guests.
Do you officiate same sex weddings?
I'm here to celebrate couples' love and unique relationship regardless of age, religion, spiritual beliefs, skin color or personal preferences.
Are You Comfortable With Traditional, Religious Weddings or Using Elements of Traditional Weddings?
Yes!
FAQ
What are the benefits of hiring a wedding planner?
It reduces stress and creates success.
What are the benefits of hiring a day-of coordinator?
Whether it is a family reunion, a work picnic, a birthday party, or a wedding, a day of coordinator becomes that one go-to person for everything logistical--instead of asking you. Day of coordinators are helpful in keeping with timelines.
Why would we pay for you to coordinate experiences for our guests?
Saving you time researching and vetting, we coordinate packages you and your guests can dive into immediately, rather than figuring out what to do on the island with the limited time you're here. Convenience and fantastic island living is what we offer.
How much help do you offer with design?
As much as you'd like. There are talented designers and florists on and off the island that we work with to create beauty.
What do you offer for special events?
We can help you plan and enjoy your family reunion, birthday party, work picnic, or special event in the San Juan Islands. Let's talk about it and see how we can help.
