TESTIMONIALS

A big thank you to you, Nancy, for your answers to our countless remote questions, for the realization of our "barefoot wedding".  You were the pillar of this ceremony, not only by organizing according to our wishes and in your capacity as person who was able to make this event official. A huge thank you for your kindness. We have appreciated. THANK YOU.  Nicole & Rainer, 2/20

Nancy - I just wanted to thank you again for the beautiful wedding ceremony!  It was such a great evening and a perfect place to be married (on Lido Key).  Thanks for your help with our day - we will never forget it!!   Holly and Christopher, 4/19

Mrs. Nancy is absolutely wonderful! She is very quick to respond and does everything to make sure your big day is special. The ceremony itself was beautiful as it was celebrated at sunset.


Mrs. Nancy created a special booklet she read to us, printed our vows, and presented us with a lovely ceremony! It was very quick and to the point, just what we wanted. We thought the joining of the sand was perfect and at the end we had our very own keepsake. I would highly recommend Mrs. Nancy as she was delightful and such a sweet lady. Very impressed!!

Nancy was great. We decided that we wanted to do our vows while we were in Florida, from Canada with our sons, close to Christmas. We contacted Nancy on a Tuesday and hoped for a Thursday ceremony on the beach. She was up for the challenge. We met her at the location and she had everything printed and ready to go. We had emailed her what was important to us and she made sure that she included those things in the ceremony. The sand ceremony, the witnessing/signing of the documents, and the pictures included our teenage sons nicely. Nancy was so personable and professional and just a pleasure to have had perform our ceremony. It was perfect and just what we were hoping for. Thank you Nancy!!   Lori & Bill, 12/17Mrs.

Many Thanks, Kelly & Mike, 12/16

I would highly recommend Nancy as an officiant for your wedding day! Nancy was great to work with. She communicated well with my husband and I through email and was always prompt with her responses. We just recently married on 11-13-16 at The Sandbar on Anna Maria Island and the ceremony was beautiful. Nancy worked with us to ensure the vows that were read were what we wanted. My husband and I do not really enjoy speaking in front of crowds and Nancy made it so that we just said "I Do". That set our nerves at ease. Thanks so much Nancy for everything -- it was a pleasure working with you!

Hello, I wanted to take a minute and thank you for officiating my wedding last month. I know it was short notice and really appreciate it. If you had said no, then we would not have gotten married.  

Thanks again, Anne & Mike, 10/16

Dear Nancy, thank you for everything. You really did bring such a charm to our special day. The suggestion for Coquina Beach was perfect. The wedding was beautiful. I loved your demeanor, your outfit, your sand table and bottle, your book that you read off of, our printed vows, and our decorative certificate. Your sing song demeanor meant so much. You were truly such a delight. I cannot imagine having a more beautiful wedding and you played such a beautiful role in it. (I suppose we could have met before but I simply ran out of time in the midst of last minute preparation.) You will forever be a special part of our memories. We cannot be more grateful. We will definitely recommend you and do reviews when we get time.  

Sincerely, Marcie & Gary, 10/16

We are so delighted that we chose Nancy Taussig as our officiant. From the first phone call to pronouncing us man and wife, she was professional and helped us plan an intimate beach wedding at sunset on Anna Maria Island. She was always responsive and designed a ceremony with all our personal wishes in mind. It was beyond perfect!”          

Brenda and Steve, 3/15

Nancy, Ryan and I can't thank you enough for making our wedding so wonderful! Despite being such a busy lady...and for good reason, we felt as though we were the only people getting married on the very busy day of 12-13-14. Your flexibility allowed us to have the ceremony we dreamed of that incorporated Buddhist vows, something we hold dear to our hearts since our time in Thailand. I would recommend Nancy to anyone getting married in Florida. She is professional, fair, quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and incredibly flexible, as well as, nice as can be! Thank you again for being a part of our special day!!!

Heather & Ryan, 12/13/14


Nancy, wanted to send you a thank you for yesterday! My husband loved the vow renewal ceremony and thought I wrote it! It just shows how well you "read" what people want, even if you haven't met them. Perfectly professional and I will recommend you to anyone I run across. Thank you again!

Jody & Nicholas, 4/13


Hi Nancy, I just wanted to say a big 'Thank You' for you officiating at our vow renewal last night. Everything was absolutely perfect. The setting on Longboat Key was just picture postcard. You were great, it was just like having an old friend perform our ceremony for us. Once again, thank you for making our special day fabulous. Many, many thanks and best wishes for your own anniversary next month.

Paula & John, 9/12


Nancy, we can't thank you enough for making our wedding such a special and personal event. We told you we wanted a traditional exchange of vows without all the fanfare. We told you we decided to save our money in order to celebrate our life together and not overspend on the wedding. You listened and offered up the perfect solution for us. Your service was both solemn and joyful. The two of us saying "I do" barefoot on sunset-washed Lido Beach was romantic and was exactly what we'd hoped for. Our sand jar has an honored place in our home as a reminder of the day.

Susan & Steve, 12/11


Nancy from Barefoot Weddings made my Siesta Key beach wedding flow smoothly, better then I could have imagined. Her services at our wedding were calming, comforting, and personally felt. I did not feel as if I was just another bride, she did make it as if it was "our day." The ceremony was a dream come true, I would love to do the ceremony over and over again. It was beyond our expectations. Thank you, Nancy.

Hi, Nancy! We just returned home and wanted to thank you once again for performing our Lido Key wedding ceremony on Labor Day. It was perfect. Those moments on the beach still seem like a movie to us. There was so much to take in at the time that we wanted to make sure that you knew how happy we were. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Fran & Michael, 9/09


Hi, Nancy! Just a quick note to say Thank You! We really loved working with you and you were exactly what we were looking for in our officiant. Your ideas for the girls, your ideas for the ceremony, your ideas for the location, were all spot on and much appreciated. Of all the people we worked with to pull off our wedding day in Bradenton Beach, you were the best. We believe we were meant to meet you and glad we did. Your life in common with the Mother of the Groom (your Wisconsin roots and such) was so neat for our family. We are so glad you stayed to have dinner with us, for we feel you were the main reason things went so well on our day. To anyone who is looking for the right officiant for their beach wedding ceremony, look no more, Nancy is quite simply the best! Thanks Again!

Kelly & Patrick, 3/17/08


Nancy, it was a true God send to have run into you that day at Michael's Craft Store. I can't thank you enough for helping make my daughter's wedding a beautiful day on Siesta Key beach. Your professional and precise manner, added by your gentle and personal touch, was enjoyed and appreciated by all. I will certainly recommend your services to anyone. Thank you for the beautiful ceremony you performed for Danielle & Michael.

Deana, 10/07


Nancy, I just wanted to thank you for such a beautiful ceremony at the Ritz-Carlton. You made it so very special. I surely did not expect to cry, but I was so overwhelmed with such a beautiful day, wonderful people by my side, and the emotional moment! Nancy, thank you again for making it such a lovely day and providing such a wonderful ceremony!! I hope our paths cross again.

Pamela & Lawrence, 10/06


Dear Nancy, thank you so much for a wonderful job during our wedding on Siesta Key. It couldn't have been more perfect. Everyone at the wedding enjoyed the ceremony,  it was absolutely perfect! I will pass your name on to anyone I know who is planning on getting married. You exceeded our expectations. Thank you for making our wedding a day we will never forget!

Thanks again, Bekka & Danny, 7/05

 


Nancy, on behalf of our family, I would like to thank you for all your support in planning our wedding. Getting married on the beach of Anna Maria Island was exactly the location we wanted! Because we live so far (Canada) from the warm surf and beautiful beaches, we were concerned with the overall planning of our wedding. With your support and helpful suggestions, it was perfect. Thank you so much for your help. We couldn't have done it without you! 

Sincerely, Laura & Ernie, 4/04

 


Even though we changed our wedding date three times and the wedding site at the last minute, Nancy remained patient and conducted a ceremony that was perfect for our needs. She even persevered through the howling of our five wiener dogs in the middle of the ceremony at our home.
