We recently had a very last-minute wedding, and we had the good fortune to have Francesca accommodate us and officiate our wedding. We are so appreciative of her assistance that we are speechless. She immediately struck us as being friendly, considerate, and professional. She was always willing to help out with any queries we had and provided direction all the way through.

She arrived on time of the wedding day to check that everything was in place. She had planned a lovely ceremony for us that was both significant and personal considering how little time we had given her to get to know us as a couple. It was a very heartwarming ceremony. We genuinely felt her love and concern for us because she made us feel like we were the most significant couple in the world.

She truly made our day seem special, and we will always be appreciative of the memories she helped us make.

We heartily recommend Francesca if you're seeking for a professional officiant who will make your day seem special and one-of-a-kind. She made a lasting impression to all of us, will forever be grateful for her officiating our wedding, she just radiated warmth and good energy!

The best ever!

I can’t say enough good things about Francesca. My husband and I were together for 15 years before getting married and Francesca couldn’t have made it more special for us. She is extremely helpful and makes you feel at ease through the whole process. Her special touch to the ceremony is something we’ll remember forever. Highly highly recommend! Thank you again for everything you did for us 😊.

Francesca is the best of the best!

We planned our elopement on very short notice back in December of 2020. Given the pandemic status, we arranged to do it on our front porch with a few friends. It was more than we could have hoped for, despite being a very cold night, and Francesca walked us through every step of the process, from planning to follow up. She also offered the sweetest blessings during our little ceremony, we were really touched. You won't be disappointed when working with her!

Blissful Elopement Ceremony

Francesca was so amazing to work with from the beginning to the end. We were unsure if we were going to be able to get married this year however when we finally decided to Francesca was able to secure a date for us with no issues. She was great with communication and was extremely organized and kept in touch with us leading up to our wedding day. She chose a beautiful spot for us to elope and the ceremony and her sweet kind words were more than perfect! Surrounded by our family and close friends it was the most initimate and seamless wedding. We can’t thank you enough for joining us and making our special day so memorable!

FAQs

You are welcome to reach out anytime for questions or concerns about anything related to your special day at no extra cost. If I can help you, it would be an honour and a privilege to support you.

1. You can pick the licence up from any City Hall in Ontario within 90 days of the ceremony. The newest policy is to make an appointment before you go in. Only one applicant needs to go, and must have the partner's original pieces of ID and signatures on the form.

2. Fill in the form before you go to City Hall.

3. You will need to bring 2 pieces of government-issued identification for each person getting married. One piece of identification must include your photo. These are the documents that are permitted:

- Government-issued birth certificate, including any change of name certificates.

- Valid passport.

- Record of immigrant landing.

- Canadian Citizenship Card.

- Valid Driver’s Licence.

- Valid Ontario Photo Card.

- Certificate of Divorce.


You can go online to apply for your marriage certificate the day of your wedding onwards. I always suggest getting the long (full copy of the license) and short (certificate) forms because you never know when you might need them. Currently it can take up to 12 weeks to receive the certificate, so you would not want to be left waiting if you needed it.

Expediting a marriage certificate is possible, however, the processing time can vary depending upon your needs and the happening at the marriage office. I am more than happy to support you through these steps if you need. I have clients with medical emergencies and immigration needs receive their certificate within 2-3 weeks. If there is an urgent need, we will do all we can to speed up the process.

It is so important to ensure that your wedding officiant is actually registered with the Ministry of Ontario. Here is a link to the government website where you can find my official registration.

Being registered with a Ministry as a reverend, clergy or a chaplain does not guarantee that the person is registered with the province. My personal designation is a Minister with the Canadian International Metaphysical Ministry (CIMM) whose head office is in British Columbia, but I am only registered in Ontario. However, I can obtain a temporary license to perform a wedding in other provinces.
