Rev Alison from the first contact through email could not have helped anymore from pointing us in the right direction for wedding services and ideas.
On the day she was kind, friendly and very hospitable, I felt very at ease from our first meet which helped a lot, the service was fun, enjoyable and very much unique to us.
The 5/5 marks are very much well deserved and reflect the service that she provides.
I would recommend Rev Alison to anyone, you would get an amazing service wherever you chose and an amazing person to perform it.
Many many thanks

Rev. Alison was fabulous. She made us feel very comfortable both in her home and on our day. I could not have put it better than out Banquet Manager put it, "She is genuinely a nice/good person."

Reverand Alison was wonderful. She meets with to get an idea of you both and then writes the ceremony around you and your beliefs. She allows you to incorporate as much or as little as you want. Rev Alison is very mild tempered and cool under pressure as well as getting things done the way you want them.
Based on others that I'd spoken with, her price for the ceremony and rehearsal dinner were average. But it was her disposition and attitude that made us choose her. You will be happy to.

Rev. Alison was so lovley. Dealing with Alison from the uk was quick and easy. Very professional and personable. When we met Alison just outside the park she instantly put us as ease and it felt like we had known her for years. She showed us a couple of places within the area we wanted to get married in central park. The ceremony was very personal as she incorporated personal information about our our family and each other, which made the vows very very special indeed. Could not have wished for a nicer person to marry us, thank you Alison for helping us forfill our dreams. X

If you are looking for someone to individualize and personalize your wedding ceremony, you have found the one. Rev Alison met with us for tea, and got to know who we were. She had constant contact with us via Internet and phone to clarify our needs. She was so professional yet very warm and loving and attentive to our needs and anxiety. She was so patient with us, and always supportive. She created the most perfect ceremony for our family. We are so pleased with the beautiful service we had, that I had to write and let the world know. You cannot go wrong if you chose her. I am forever grateful that our paths crossed and will never forget her.

Rev. Alison performed a beautiful ceremony for us. It was exactly what we wanted, and everyone else enjoyed it as well. My husband is Jewish and I am Catholic, it was wonderful how she combined both of our beliefs into one great ceremony. Thank you so much to Rev. Alison, and I would highly recommend her to anyone getting married.

Rev Alison Caiola made our wedding unforgettable. She has a great sense of humor. We comunicated by phone to discuss the wedding ceremony and we met her in person on the day of our wedding. She kept me calm while I was waiting to make the big entrance and just by the way she carries herself you just knew all was going to run smoothly. We both come from religious parents with different beliefs, we were stuck on how to do the wedding ceremony so we decided to do it non religious just civil. I was amazed on how Rev Alison made a civil ceremony so warm and loving. She included why me and my husband loved each other, poems and a verse from the bible of what love is. I have a daughter from a previous marriage and we wanted her to feel part of all we were doing on our wedding day so Rev Alison suggested we have a sand ceremony, which came out beautiful. In all I don't think there's another officiant like Rev Alison Caiola she loves what she does and you can see it in her work.

Reverend Alison is the warmest, kindest, most professional officiant imaginable.
My husband and I were initially considering hiring a friend to marry us; I'm SO GLAD we chose Reverend Alison instead. It poured on the day of our wedding, and we had to scramble to change the plan for our ceremony. Rev Alison stayed calm and cool. She corralled the wedding party and created a new processional and recessional on the fly--something I'm positive none of our friends would have been able to do.
I admit, the downpour got to me, and I was having a hard time keeping my composure. My mother and sister tried to help me, but I was melting down (and in danger of crying off my false eyelashes!). Reverend Alison saw that I was upset, and pulled me aside. She said, "Listen to me. It's not about the rain. It's about this beautiful man you're marrying." Thanks to her, I was able to pull myself together and enjoy my wedding. I'll never be able to thank her enough for her strength and kindness.
During the ceremony itself, Rev Alison was the perfect blend of serious and funny. Our guests were crying one minute, and laughing the next. I got dozens and dozens of rave reviews--everyone said it was the best ceremony they'd ever attended.
Reverend Alison is completely unique among officiants in that 1) she personalizes every single ceremony she does (and she doesn't charge extra for this! It's just something she does out of the goodness of her heart), and 2) she lets the bride and groom read the final draft of the ceremony before the wedding. The result is a ceremony that feels completely special and personal, and that you know you'll love going in--you're not worried that a single sentence will rub you or your guests the wrong way.
If you're like me, you'll find that the ceremony is the single most important part of your wedding day--more important than the first dance, the cake-cutting, everything. It's the moment when you're actually pledging your life to your spouse. Reverend Alison made this moment so magical for us. I really can't recommend her highly enough.
