Nancy, first of all thank you so much personally from Torey and myself, you went above an beyond. Nancy is the ultimate officiant she is punctual, thorough, creative, patient but gets things done without adding stress. She’s knowledgeable and a fun personality to be around. Nancy gave us more then we could of imagined . She stuck to our vision an pushed nothing. She gave guidance when asked and made things work when things got astray at times. She has much experience under her belt an it shows. She speaks eloquently, easy to listen to , and flows beautifully. If you want a wow factor and someone in your corner that tells your story beautifully with passion Nancy is your gal. THANK YOU NANCY 10/03/24 Mariah an Torey Evje.

I appreciate the attention to detail Nancy had when performing our ceremony. She worked with us ahead of time to help make the experience special. She did an excellent job performing our ceremony. I highly recommend her.

Mrs. Nancy made the unforgettable experience truly personalized and special for us. Thank you both so much! Would 1000 x recommend her to anyone getting married and definitely will be sending her some pictures of our special moment she helped create!

Nancy absolutely nailed it! She made the whole experience personal, customized, and simple. We asked for a small but unorthodox ceremony and she delivered – even surpassed our expectations. She remained flexible and communicated really well throughout the whole process. We couldn’t have asked for a more flawless execution. Definitely recommended!

Nancy’s amazing! She took the time get to know us and tailored the ceremony to reflect our story and our personalities. The speech she gave during the ceremony was very beautiful!

Nancy is wonderful. She takes the time to listen to you and your partner to help personalize your ceremony script.
For us, we were renewing our vows, and wanted our son involved in the ceremony. Nancy emailed all three of us questions about the past and present, and scripted a beautiful renewal for us.
She kept in contact with us frequently via phone, email and zoom. And because there was no reception where we were having the ceremony, we arranged a meeting place in a town close by ahead of time, and she was incredibly accommodating, and just so nice to work with.
I can’t speak highly enough of Ultimate Wedding Ceremonies and Nancy.

“Nancy made our wedding ceremony and wedding day so special! She really took the time to get to know both of us and our love story. We met with her in advance of the wedding day and she asked us really thoughtful questions about our relationship. She had wonderful ideas right off the bat and also incorporated feedback really well. The end result was the best wedding we could’ve imagined! The ceremony was uniquely us (which is a testament to Nancy’s skill) and we’ll cherish it forever. We are so glad we worked with Nancy as our wedding officiant!”

I had the pleasure of working with Nancy Hicks as the officiant at a recent wedding, and I can’t say enough good things about her! Nancy was incredibly professional and such a joy to work alongside. She has a wonderful way of engaging everyone as she shares the story of how the couple met and fell in love, making the ceremony heartfelt and personal.

As a wedding photographer, I particularly appreciated how seamlessly Nancy conducted the ceremony. She knew exactly what to do and gracefully stepped out of the way during the big moments, like the kiss, ensuring everything flowed perfectly for the couple—and the photos!

It’s always a treat to work with someone who is both fun and highly skilled at what they do. If you’re looking for an officiant who will make your ceremony unforgettable, Nancy is absolutely the one to call!

“Nancy was absolutely PERFECT!!! She was so kind and easy to talk to. She wrote our love story into the ceremony, and it was just beautiful. Everyone commented on what a lovely ceremony we had. She met us at our chosen place to be married at Lewis and Clark Park. She arrived early and made everything happen smoothly, including our unity candles. I’m so thankful that we found Nancy, and she was available to be there for our special day ❤️”

“Our big day would not be this impressive, special, or memorable without Nancy. She went above and beyond our expectations. She accommodated our request for a bilingual ceremony, which included some guests who did not speak English, and worked with our translator to create a script in another language. She also tailored the ceremony to reflect our relationship and was willing to travel to Seattle for the rehearsal and formal ceremony. Her warmth, friendliness, and creative writing skills made the entire experience so meaningful. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced and professional officiant who can provide a well-balanced mix of surprise, humor, and warmth, as we could tell she genuinely cared about making our day perfect.”

“Nancy did such an incredible job! She made our ceremony special and unique. The way she told our love story was straight out of a romance book…everyone cried! I cannot thank her enough for making our ceremony one of a kind. I 10000% recommend anyone who is looking for an officiant to book Nancy. Not only is she amazing at her job, she is a great human being♥️.” -The Nolen’s

“We hired Nancy for our wedding and she did a fantastic job. She was very helpful throughout the entire process, from getting our license, to writing the script, to the ceremony, she was always available to answer any questions we had. The script came out great and so did the ceremony.”

Cassie & Parker 5/10/25

“Nancy is an exceptional officiant who makes the entire process painless, smooth, and streamlined. Her communication is clear and responsive, and her punctuality ensures everything runs on time. She’s easy to work with and a perfect fit for any Bride and Groom-to-be looking for a stress-free and memorable ceremony.
The scripting she provides is beautifully tailored to our story, and we wouldn’t have wanted to do it any other way.”

“We hired Nancy for our wedding in June and I can’t say enough good things about her. She truly made our wedding ceremony one of a kind. She was such a pleasure to work with. She communicates well, is so easy going and just a really fun and interesting person to meet. She showed up early to the wedding and made sure everything was in order to make our ceremony flawless.”

Megan & Jeff June, 2025

“Nancy was the perfect officiant and person to help guide us through this process! We had a small elopement with minimal guests at a park and she was able to make the ceremony heart felt and reflective of my husband and I. She was always available and there for us if we had any questions.

The ceremony was intimate and special and my husband and I both teared up. It is not easy to make a ceremony for two introverts like us but Nancy made it happen and it was beautiful! Do not hesitate to choose her :)”

Ana & Oscar July, 2025

You can tell from the moment you meet Nancy that she genuinely loves what she does. The opportunity to tell our love story as part of the ceremony made it feel truly special. Nancy was incredibly easy to work with—from choosing the verbiage of the ceremony, to each of us sending her our perspectives on our love story, and her having us review part of the script before the big day. For the ceremony itself, she arrived early to the venue, was dressed to impress, and consulted with our photographer before having a huddle with us to make sure we all had everything we needed for things to go smoothly. The ceremony was beautiful. Nancy crafted a customized retelling of our love story that we heard for the first time, which was sweet, poignant, and truly one of a kind. It was exactly what we had hoped it would be. We can’t recommend Nancy highly enough!

We met Nancy at our friend’s wedding, and we were so impressed by how organized, warm, and engaging she was that we decided to have her as our officiant too. Working with Nancy was such a wonderful experience — she’s sweet, professional, and always quick to respond. She customized our ceremony and vows perfectly based on our preferences, and everything went so smoothly.

On our wedding day, she delivered a beautiful script that truly captured our love story. We’re so glad we chose Nancy and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and talented officiant!

Yiran & Yiming Nov. 2025

Nancy was wonderful. I live as a very paranoid and concerned individual, and Nancy was a perfect fit.

Nancy takes the initiative and I really enjoyed meeting with her. She sits down with the couple and learns about them, their history, and how they are as people. She then takes what she learns and puts it into the script, which makes it super personal which is exactly what I wanted. Nancy will take baseline information and completely transform it.

Nancy was patient with me as well. It took me up to a week before the wedding to be done going over the script. Nancy was also flexible with a last minute change to the script that I caused and the show still went on without any problems.

After the wedding she will then send you the script, which is a nice touch.

Thank you Nancy.

Nancy is amazing!!! She is very professional and also incredibly kind. She prepared everything so thoroughly for us and even customized our small ceremony based on our love story, which was so thoughtful and touching. She is warm, approachable, and very responsible, while also being highly professional with the process and required documents. We are truly lucky to have found her. She made our special day unforgettable, and we 100% recommend her!

Nancy is the epitome of supportive comfort. Every step of the way, she is on your side, rooting for you, and helping you with such ease. While the busiest, vendor-filled phase pops up as the big day nears… she is there in the background, quietly rooting for you, prompting you as needed, in the most delicate and best way. She does not interfere, she encourages. If you have a coordinator, she works with them and molds every queue with them and the DJ in the most effective way. Comfort, ease, and poise, describe her well. Nancy, our deepest thanks for being the such a huge part of our day. You were the highlight of our ceremony viewership: everyone adored your take on our story, and you delivered SO well. Folks, do not doubt in your selection of Nancy for officiating your wedding. She is the bees knees.
