Welcome to Ship and Shore Ceremonies

“There aren’t enough words to thank Sharon for making our day so very special. To be honest the second we met her we felt like we knew her for years. She made the two of us feel comfortable, we shared stories, we laughed and in that moment we just knew she was the perfect person. Her outlook on love is what truly makes her so special. She goes above and beyond to get to know your story so that she can make your vows the most memorable. She is a kind spirit who obviously loves what she does. We couldn’t have imagined our day without her and will forever be grateful that we met her. If you are looking for someone who goes the extra mile and takes the time to deliver a beautiful ceremony then she is the one for you! We highly recommend that you make an effort to meet with her because we promise you… you will not be disappointed! Thank you again so much Sharon! You truly will be one of the special moments we shared that day together and we couldn’t have imagined anyone else sharing that moment with us besides you. There is no rating high enough to express just amazing you are. Xoxo “

“Sharon did a fantastic job officiating our wedding. It was the most beautiful day made even more special by her leading the ceremony! She is so nice and a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing an officiant for their special day!”

“Where do I even begin with Sharon!? We had to get an Officiant last minute before our wedding. With only communicating through phone and email Sharon made this whole experience so easy. She wrote our entire ceremony but personalized it to the way we wanted it for our wedding day. She even turned in our marriage license which was so helpful for us living out of state. She made us feel very welcome and was very quick at responding and communicating. Your wedding won’t be the same without her.”

“Our elopement could not have gone more perfectly thanks to Sharon. Prompt, professional, and courteous she tailored our vows and our ceremony to exactly what we wanted — a nondenominational and casual affair that was still beautifully curated. We received a copy of our license in only a couple of days, and even in light of an uncertain forecast on the day of Sharon remained flexible throughout. Thank you again for this unforgettable experience!”

“Sharon was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She made the ceremony process so easy. She is so sweet and easy to talk to that we felt comfortable asking any questions and/or advice. The huge bonus was that she was there for the rehearsal. I would recommend Sharon to anyone looking for not only a wonderful officiant but a caring yet professional woman with an awesome accent :-)”

“Sharon was able to take all my concerns away regarding the legal requirements and documentation of our marriage and her professional skills came forward in helping us with the details of our ceremony. Sharon made the process a lot of fun! Our ceremony was made extra special with her lighthearted banter with me while I waited without a best man for my bride to walk the isle and I do believe that while she read our vows out aloud, she brought us all to tears of love. It was a very sentimental time with her. We will never forget Sharon and I believe she has become a friend of our new family forever.”

“We are overwhelmed by the positive feedback our guests provided after the ceremony. Sharon balanced a spiritual and religious ceremony was was inclusive and well coordinated. Her willingness to meet us at the venue multiple times prior to the wedding made it easy to work with her. She created a custom service for us that was heartfelt, beautiful and authentic.”

“Sharon Wardle was an amazing and caring officiant for our wedding! She was very flexible in allowing us to add in our own vows and ceremony choices, and we loved her British accent! The marriage certificate was a very beautiful keepsake. She added much professionalism and charm to our wedding…”
