Most Lovely Ceremony Officiant Ruth was friggin amazing. Ruth really just wants to make your day special, catering the ceremony to however you wish it to be and more. She gives amazing suggestions, keeps it stress free, was super awesome at the rehearsal and patient with our crazy wedding party. We honestly would go grab a beer with Ruth after this. Ruth, if you see this, you nailed it lady. |
Stephanie B, married June 3 2023
Ruth was amazing from start to finish! She has such a lovely presence about her which puts you at ease on your wedding day. She was always willing to answer any questions and tailor the ceremony to us. She was very quick in her responses to us and shared many great resources (how to write vows, marriage licence info, rehearsal prep, etc). Ruth has exceptional attention to detail and took the time to get to know us as a couple so that she could give a wonderful background story to our guests. She is so down to earth and her style of officiating is warm-hearted, personable and genuine. We can't thank Ruth enough! |

The perfect officiant!
I am SO thankful that we had Ruth as our officiant for our day! She struck the perfect balance of not stealing the spotlight, but was able to command attention while running our ceremony in a fun & heartfelt way. Ruth brings a warm and calming energy to every interaction -- from your first meeting with her, to connecting with her right before your ceremony, and throughout the ceremony itself. The personalized ceremony that she wrote for us was so special -- it was like she's known us and our relationship for years. THANK YOU, Ruth, for being part of what made our day so special!

Ruth was the officiant at my wedding this past weekend. She was an absolute breeze to work with leading up to the day and was super professional on the day of. She has a comfortability about her that made the whole process seamless. It felt like an old friend was officiating the ceremony. We couldn’t recommend Ruth enough!

Amazing experience!
We are so happy we found Ruth! She was so helpful and welcoming! There was a language barrier, but Ruth was extremely patient and flexible with us. She explained everything nicely and made sure we are clear about the whole process before starting the ceremony. We would recommend her to any friends of ours, so if you are deciding, please consider having Ruth as your officiant! Thank you so much for your help, Ruth!

Ruth was extremally helpful and knowledgeable though the planning proses and after the wedding as well. she was extremally efficient replying to emails and answering our questions. Ruth arrived on time the day on the wedding and helped organize the wedding party and music. She truly wanted the day to be special for us and made it so we didn't have to worry about a thing.

Medina K. married September 17 2022
Ruth was extremely helpful, had a couple of meetings before the wedding to go over everything and iron out details, which was very helpful and thankfully we’re not too picky so it was very easy aha. Thank you Ruth for officiating our wedding, you did an amazing job! Truly couldn’t have done it without you😁 |
Kate J. September 10 2022
Amazing officiant! I cannot recommend Ruth enough as a wedding officiant. From the beginning, she listened to our requests and asked personal questions about our story to incorporate into the ceremony. She was super responsive via email and on time (early actually!) and prepared when it came to the wedding day. She has a very calming energy and her words of wisdom "it's a wedding, not a performance" helped to calm our nerves and make the ceremony our favourite part of the day. Thanks Ruth! |

5.0 One of the best decisions… Working with Ruth was one of the best decisions that we could have made. Ruth officiated my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding on a beautiful August day. Right from the very first contact to the end of the ceremony Ruth guided the couple with her knowledge and professionalism. She took the time to get to know them and truly made the ceremony very personal and intimate. It truly was a day about them. Ruth arrived on time and helped coordinate the ceremony with the wedding party, venue, and musician. The ceremony flowed smoothly with her gracious style and wit. What a fun celebration and we will not hesitate recommending Ruth McGregor Celebrations to anyone in need of an officiant. |
Wynter W. married June 25 2022
5.0 Fantastic officiant Ruth was absolutely wonderful to work with. She listened to our needs, and exceeded our expectations by holding together our ceremony and running around to make sure we were all ready. Ruth was professional and spoke eloquently during our ceremony. She was prepared, organized, and discreetly directed everyone. We just can’t say enough great things about our experience with Ruth marrying us!! My biggest wish was a short & sweet ceremony and for Ruth to step aside when we have our first kiss for the photographer to capture us. Ruth nailed every aspect! Thank you!! |

Organized, thoughtful - an absolute pleasure to work with! Words can not express the many ways that Ruth helped to ensure our wedding ceremony was everything that we hoped it would be. Ruth engages right away to understand the tone and type of ceremony you are looking for and offers suggestions and options along the way. She really takes the time to get to know you as a couple so that she can meet your needs. Ruth provides gentle and thoughtfully timed prompts to ensure that everything is in order - and does so to ensure everything around your ceremony is settled and ready before all of the other vendors etc bombard you in the days before the wedding. I am an organized and detail oriented person - and was able to leave the ceremony details and schedules to Ruth without any concern - she is a true professional through and through. I would highly recommend Ruth to anyone - she was a great support and received rave reviews from all of our guests. |

5.0 Ruth is absolutely incredible! We feel so lucky to have had Ruth officiate our wedding! We couldn’t have dreamt of a more perfect ceremony and officiant to guide us through the entire process. She is organized, professional, punctual, knowledgeable, and so kind. From our very first meeting, to the rehearsal, to the wedding day, we felt so supported by her. We can’t thank you enough, Ruth! Maddy R, married July 23 2022
5.0 Genuine kindness & professionalism Choosing Ruth as our officiant was the best call we could have made! She was remarkably helpful throughout the entire process from planning to rehearsal to the big day. She answered all our questions (even ones we didn't think to ask!), kept us grounded amidst the chaos, and was always kind, responsive and professional. Ruth made us feel so comfortable, encouraging us to personalize the ceremony and giving us the tools we needed to do so. We are so happy she could be part of our journey! |

My partner and I used Ruth to officiate our wedding. She was very open and inclusive, we are an LGBTQ couple. We had a video chat for introduction, multiple emails back and forth until the day of the ceremony. It was a beautiful day and a perfectly small ceremony with 14 attendees!

5.0 Ruth was the absolute perfect addition to our wedding. She was professional, on time, and did a fantastic job with the ceremony. During the pre-wedding meetings I shared with Ruth that I was feeling nervous about the ceremony and speaking in front of so many people, she ensured that both my husband and I felt comfortable and leaded us through the ceremony flawlessly.
We feel that Ruth went above and beyond for our ceremony, answering all my emails quickly and full of useful information, worked with me on making my ceremony exactly how I wanted it, and even went as far as fixing my hair and veil on the wedding day when it came out with how windy it was. Can't say enough good things about Ruth and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for an officiant. Thank you for being an amazing officiant Ruth!

5.0 Ruth is amazing!!!
We had the best experience with Ruth. She graciously took us over after our officiant couldn’t not do our wedding anymore. She is so upbeat, outgoing, and caring and we truly felt so comfortable and ourselves around her.
Ruth was flexible with the ceremony and allowed us to make the ceremony our own. She helped picked out lovely readings and we were able to chose the one we felt suited us best. Ruth was easy to talk to during our conversations leading up to the wedding, (even being over Zoom) and was always easy to get ahold of!
We would highly recommend Ruth! She made our wedding ceremony so special!

5.0 Amazing Officiant!
Ruth is a wonderful person to work with and we highly recommend her. Ruth walked us through all of the different possibilities for our ceremony and guided us to choosing something that fit us perfectly. Ruth responds to emails quickly and leaves no detail out when it comes to planning- which comes much appreciated when we didn’t know what to expect. Ruth really helped us make the ceremony our own as she was very knowledgeable in all the different styles of ceremonies and made great suggestions based on our wishes.

5.0 Wonderful Experience!
I cannot find enough words to praise Ruth McGregor as she far exceeded our expectations for a wedding officiant.
Ruth radiates joy and her beautiful smile was the first thing I always noticed at our group and one-on-one Zoom meetings. I thought this is a woman who loves her job. Each question was throughly answered and meticulously noted.
What stood out most was Ruth’s eagerness to make the ceremony uniquely ours. As Ruth is a Humanist officiant, we wished to include religious elements and worried how she might respond to this request. We were thrilled when she embraced this idea and her flexibility was deeply appreciated.
She worked closely with our cousin who led the religious aspects and the result was a perfect and beautifully balanced ceremony that had everything we could have hoped for.
On a final note, I must add that we are both seniors with a lifetime of experience. We chose to marry because when two people fall in love and decide to bind themselves to each other, there is a joy and gratitude that is hard to put into words. Ruth captured this joy and we are forever grateful.
