Everafter Weddings

Sandra, First off I apologize for the review that gave you a 4.7 from our October 14 wedding. The review was suppose to be all 5's. (Apparently when I clicked on a star a couple of them didn't fill in all the way - if your curser goes across a star it changes automatically) I want everyone reading this to know that Sandra gave 100% of herself to make my daughter's wedding perfect. I was highly satisfied with her services and everything she did. Sandra made the wedding unique and at the same time very touching and sentimental. (We even teared up at the rehearsal!!) I would highly recommend her for any bride that wants her wedding personalized and for a ceremony that will always be remembered.

Sandra was excellent, she performed a double wedding ceremony for my daughters which was very memorable. Will definitely be using her again.

Sandra was the minister for a double wedding for both me and my sister. Thanks to Sandra the ceremony was beautiful, memorable, and absolutely perfect. Sandra spent a lot of time tailoring the ceremony to fit all four of our personalities. She was both funny and heartfelt. I had people tell me after the wedding that they'd been to several weddings this summer but that out of all of them our ceremony was the only one they'd remember. If you want the typical boring wedding ceremony look somewhere else. Some unique things we had in our ceremony were the reading of a poem by Johnny Cash, hand fasting, and a wine ceremony. Sandra is one of the most interesting people I've met :) Thank you so much for making our day perfect!!!

Sandy was phenomenal! We couldn't have imagined a better officiant. Since we were coming in from out of state, we were a little uneasy about how things would play out. Sandy was available to us by phone and email whenever we needed her, and despite having multiple weddings in the same weekend, made sure our ceremony was unique and personalized. Some of the aspects of our ceremony we could not have found anywhere else. She is very innovative, and our guests are still talking about how great she was. Thank you Sandy, you made our day very special.Mr. and Mrs. Eckels

Sandy is just a joy to work with! She took on our wedding on very short notice, yet performed the cutest , most beautiful wedding I could have imagined. She took the time to get to know us, and made our ceremony very personal and unique. Some of our family members thought we had known her for years from the way she spoke of us. She also adds in her own personal touches and humor that you won't find with just anyone, creating a warm and comfortable environment for you and your guests. We were extremely please with our ceremony and would highly recommend Sandy for any wedding. Chris and Wendy Hynes

We loved loved loved Sandy as our officiant for our summer wedding! We lived in Texas but had the wedding in Missouri we only had one chance to meet with Sandy before our wedding and she really got it right! My husband left our first meeting with her saying he wanted her to be his grandma. She is such a lovely women and caring women and she really really knows what she is doing. She loves her job and she is great at it! We were not a typical wedding we had children that she really made feel apart of the whole thing. You can't go wrong with Sandy as your officiant!

We were an out of town couple from the Chicago area who were blindly trying to find a non denominational person to marry us in the St. Louis area. We hit upon Sandy's website and were intrigued by all of the wonderful reviews for her. She insisted on meeting with us in her beautiful home, which we drove five hours to do. It was the best five hours spent on our wedding planning. She had a way of making us, as a couple, feel like we’re old family friends. She defiantly is one of a kind, and that is what every member of our celebration remembers. They still ask us about our officiant. My Husband and I hold her in our highest regards, and are so thankful that she was VIP in our Wedding Day.

We had the most perfect wedding of our dreams. Sandy took the time to get to know us and our vows were PERFECT! They reflected who we are and were a genuine surprise and delight. I would recommend her to anyone. She helped make our day special.

Rev. Sandra LaRouche was the best she made our wedding personal. she put loads of heart and soul into the wedding. I would have her marry us all ove again...

Love, Love, LOVE Sandy! She did such a fantastic job officiating for my husband and I. We had a small ceremony and I wanted everyone to be at ease. She accomplished that by her little quips throught the ceremony. She put our minds at ease whenever we had a question about when to do or say something or where to be. She guided us through the whole process. She includes personal details about your lives that make the ceremony very specific to you. She incorporates your children when you want (LOVE her Family Circle ceremony) and mentions relatives that have passed away. We had SO MANY COMPLIMENTS about Sandy at the reception. Everyone asked if we knew her....and I told them we were just LUCKY to find her!! If you need an officiant, don't take my word about Sandy - go see her! Go see her demeanor & how she interacts with her husband in their home. See how detailed she gets with YOUR details and the ceremony that YOU want. I had so much fun that night I told everyone - I wish I could get married again, and AGAIN! Well, maybe not to a different person.....ha. But we'll definitely keep Sandy in mind for a vow renewal reception!

Groom: I cannot overstate the professionalism, personalized care, and beautiful sincerity that this officiant will bring to your service; Sandy is the one you want, hands down. Even though our wedding was a small one (40 friends and family total), she kept the service so well, it could have been five hundred. Our wedding was a morning ceremony, and she was delighted to accommodate. With her service, she included a binder of her beautiful speech for us.Bride: I had the luck of attending a wedding where Sandy was officiant, years before I was married. She gave the most beautiful service, I cried, even though I rarely cry at weddings. When it became my turn, I knew I had to hire her. Sandy is very accommodating, and an absolute joy to work with. She is kind, warm, creative, diverse, dedicated, and did I mention funny? Her writing is poetry, and I am sure she would be writing beautiful words filling books, except that instead, she spends her energy writing beautiful words for the many ceremonies she performs throughout the year. I am blessed that I got her perform mine!

I would like everyone to know that Sandy is an awesome person! Tony and I had the most unique, personable, funny,and beautiful ceremony. Sandy made us feel so comfortable from the first moment we met her. If you are looking for someone to make your ceremony special and like no other you've ever heard, then please call her as soon as possible. Thank you so very much Sandy!!Tony and Wanda Jinkerson

My new husband and I first saw Sandy do my friends wedding a few years ago and instantly knew that she was the person to do our wedding. Well, this past Sunday was our wedding and it was perfect! It was relaxed, fun, personalized to us, and not like the stuffy weddings everyone is used to! I got so many compliments on our ceremony. It was exactly like we wanted. Sandy and her husband are two very unique people who know what it means to be in love and that alone makes the weddings Sandy does more special.We're recommending her to everyone we know and as soon as we decide to have a baby we're going to hire her to do a blessing for our baby too!Thanks so much for making our day great Sandy!!!

Sandy officiated our friends wedding and was such a character. It was the first wedding ceremony I had actually enjoyed listening to and almost at the same time my boyfriend at the time and I looked at each other and said "we ever get married we are using her!" Well, we got engaged and she was the only one we thought of. Sandy, makes your entire wedding special and very tailored to you both. I can't tell you how many hours we spent together;) Everything was beautiful we LOVE HER!

Sandy was born to do this! She was indispensable at every stage of our wedding, from helping us pick the perfect date to providing the perfect setting. She was comforting and calming and her help made our planning so much less stressful.We and our guests all felt that it was the most beautiful, personal and meaningful wedding ceremony we'd ever witnessed. Sandy really captured our personalities. Her hand-fasting ceremony was so touching and we really appreciated the written copy of the ceremony. Sandy went above and beyond in so many ways to make our day extra special. Bob's professional photographs were beautiful and we so appreciate them as well. We've recommended Sandy to everyone we know and our happy experience has inspired some of our friends to consider renewing their vows.If we'd known about Sandy earlier, we'd have gotten married sooner!

Sandy was everything we ever wanted and more. After the ceremony people asked us if she was an old family friend - she took THAT much time to get to know us!

Sandy was one of our favorite vendors to work with throughout the planning process, and she definitely delivered on our wedding day! We really enjoyed talking to her and appreciated that she took an interest in us as a couple, and listened to what we were looking for in our ceremony. The ceremony was beautiful and Sandra was so charming. Plus we have a book of our ceremony and we can read it anytime and remember our vow. Our guests loved her and still comment on how wonderful and unique our ceremony was. One of my friends and her fiance have also asked Sandy to be their officiant next year!!

So many of the guest at my wedding thought Sandy was the best minister ever for a wedding. Several people have asked me for her number for their wedding. It was very unique and special. I have been to several bland weddings and with Sandy, their is no way that it could have been bland.

Sandra married my husband and I back in 2006. I have referred her 3 times alone this week for my brother in November and two friends.Sandra, you'll probably remember us. We forgot our marriage license! She was wonderful, the epitomy of cool, calm and collected, and the ceremony was beautiful. We aren't the religious type; she respected our wishes. Everyone was wowed by the ceremony with the herbs and roses and every single person commented on how amazing she was.Thank you for being part of our special day. I look forward to seeing you soon!

I highly reccomend Sandy to everyone who is getting married. My husband and I are 2 different religions and she used aspects of both for the ceremony. She is warm and caring and takes the time to get to know you as one of her own family which makes the ceremony much friendlier. It is not the typical boring wedding. I think that the guests all laughed and cried and I had so many people comment to me on our wedding being the best wedding they have ever attended. I love that we have the book of the ceremony so that we can look back and read our wedding anytime we wish. She could not have done a better job, it was eactly what a wedding should be.
