Don,
We really appreciated your words and attitude in our wedding ceremony. It was so beautiful... all of our friends asked about you and the kind of text you choose for the ceremony. It was awesome.
Thank you for helping us to celebrate this special moment in our lives.
We´ll never forget you.
Our best wishes for you and your wife,
Inma and Daniel

Hey Rev Bohn!
Wow - your references... what can I say? I have heard nothing but amazing things about you and your wife you must be very proud! My fiance and I are flying down tomorrow for a few days to check out a few places again so that we can decide on a place. You should hear from me soon regarding setting a date and reserving your services.
Thanks!

Hi Jennifer,
Congratulations! I just had a request from Rev. Bohn to provide you with a reference. It is my pleasure to do so because of the great hospitality and service that Rev. Bohn and Samantha showed us during our wedding and stay in New Orleans.
My wife and I were married at Audubon Park at the St. Charles entrance. The service was absolutely great, the fountain with the flowers was beautiful. It was easy too! We called Rev. Bohn on Monday to confirm the time and place, showed up on Tuesday afternoon, and were married in a simple ceremony that we had previously chosen. It gave us plenty of time to enjoy ourselves and not be so stressed out!!
I suggest the digital pictures. Samantha took about 230 of them, and they are great. We set them up as a slide show on our laptop for the wedding reception when we returned home. It was almost like watching a movie of the wedding.
If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to answer. Just send me an e-mail. Good luck and enjoy!!

Don and Samantha,
Thanks so much for making our "Valentine's Day Wedding" so special. The pictures were awesome Samantha, you really captured the spirit of the day. Don, thanks for including a copy of the wedding script and vows in the folder, we've read them over again several times and each time it brings tears to my eyes. You truly did make our "NAWLINS" experience one we'll never forget.
With gratitude,
Donna and Peter

Hi Rev. Don,
Thank you again for the great job both of you did officiating our small but culturally complex wedding! We were very happy with your efforts for both the Christian and Hindu traditions within our ceremony.
I wanted to mention also that your lovely wife seemed extremely professional, very creative and she was a pleasure to work with during the entire process. We were able to relax because she could take care of the photography details and provide direction for us.
I also wanted to let you both know that we have now arrived in California and we are really looking forward to receiving the wedding photo CD.

Dear Samantha,
Thank you so much for all of your hard work at our wedding on November 11th. You truly saved the day when so many other things went wrong. We were so lucky to have you with us that day.
We received our picture CD in the mail. We are very pleased with the pictures! Thanks so much!

Rev. Donald and Samantha,
I just wanted to send you a quick email that I received the second set of CDs with the photographs. Samantha, you did a fabulous job capturing the excitement and fun of Julie and my wedding. The extra photos that you took of the guests will be greatly appreciated and cherished. I know Julie and I will of ours.
Thank you again and thank you both for making our wedding a wonderful celebration.

PS.....Our excitement continued throughout the week as our Most Excellent Adventure took us to the Memphis area in which we bought a house on a golf course there. It was one fabulous week.

Dear Rev. Don and Samantha,
We want to thank you for making our wedding day the most perfect day of our lives.
Our weddings vows almost didn't happen--- --our luggage was lost, we were late to our own
wedding! My husband and I were panicking because we thought the wedding we had planned
for a year wouldn't take place. You both waited patiently for us to arrive. The wedding was just how I fantasized as a little girl.
I recommended you to all our friends, because we have such fond memories of our wedding day. I'm glad Samantha was the photographer who
captured our wedding. The pictures couldn't have been more beautiful! You made extraordinary
efforts to make our wedding day everything we
could hope for! Samantha is an amazing photographer and we will always cherish our pictures. Samantha is extremely truly talented and
professional photographer.
Our wedding day was June 11th 2005, we just celebrated our one year wedding anniversary.
Thank you both so much,
Chris and Monique

Rev. Bohn,
Thank you so much for all your help with our ceremony on the 28th of last month. I know that I may have seemed frantic at times to you, but we had many guests, including Warren's 85 year old grandmother in her wheelchair, to consider and that's what I was mostly concerned with...the comfort of the others who joined us. Everything turned out just perfect.
I've attached a picture...if you would like to put use it on your website (or not) that would be fine with us.
It was a lovely, very memorable day for us in NOLA!

We cannot thank you and Samantha enough for truly the most memorable day of our lives. The wedding was perfectly suited for us. The weather held out and family, friends and Jazz Fest buddies were there. We couldn't have found a more ideal person to perform our ceremony which exactly represented who we are. It really was a unique experience.
Samantha's pictures were precisely want we wanted, not the normal staged photographs, but definitely a true representation of the event.
We can never thank you enough.
Joyce & George

Rev. Bohn,
Donna and I just wanted to thank you for your patience and wonderful service to us on our wedding day last Saturday, 25 March 06. As with all weddings, ours didn't go quite "as planned", but with everything in life these days, not much does. You were so forgiving when our entire party did not arrive on time. Again, I apologize, but your patience gave me comfort even when I was beginning to worry. Our wedding day was nothing short of wonderful, and we thank you for helping the two of us become one. Donna and I look forward to spending the rest of our lives together and we will forever remember the unique and truly special ceremony you provided for us. It is from the bottom of our hearts that we give you thanks.
On a special note, if anyone contacts you and wishes to talk with a couple that has had a ceremony conducted by you, please feel free to send them my contact information. We would be more that willing to give them a positive referral to you. Thank you again and God bless.
Respectfully,
Russell and Donna Gardner
Hi Samantha!
Wow I have been Mrs. Harrison for almost 3 weeks now.
We want to thank you and Don for all your ideas in and taking the photographs and the kindness you showed, especially in arranging for that swan to make such a timely appearance. The photos turned out very nicely.
I especially like the photo of Shawn opening the Champaign bottle, he looks so happy it just makes my heart skip a beat and brings a smile on my face!
We appreciated your driving us to the trolley stop and learning you two are
newlyweds. We met some younger folk and they were all excited for us, as
they questioned us about our dress and roses, ect. When the trolley came they said “Let them ride for free! They just got married,” and he did!
Well, we dined at Brennan's for dinner and received special treatment, photos and being announced to the restaurant, glasses of Bubbly and an extra dessert to take home. When we left we were asked to ascend the circular stairs, were given a souvenir menu with the Banana Fosters recipe and another photo taken and then introduced to Mr. Brennan. We felt honored. A special way to end our special day.

Samantha,
Armando and I just wanted to thank you for helping us get married this past Friday. You are a wonderful and polite person and you made us feel extremely comfortable during such an emotionally charged time. Good luck to you during your wedding next month and in the future. I would also recommend your services to others in the future if they wanted to take the same route we did. Thanks again!!!!

Samantha:
We were so pleased to hear your voice.... we are happy to know both of you are doing well. We had such a fabulous time at our wedding and we could never be grateful enough for the wonderful job you did capturing our big day....
The pictures are a hit with our family and friends.... the black and whites, the pictures by the river, the ones with the cathedral in the background, they are all so beautiful. Looking at our wedding album is one of our favorites things to do. I've never felt as beautiful as I did that day. We appreciate the time that both you and Don took to make sure our day was wonderful...We would be honored and would gladly agree to let you use any of the pictures in your print advertising... We hope you enjoy using them at least half as much as we love looking at them...
I'm enclosing our address and contact number... If either I or Brandt can be of any help, do not hesitate...
Happy Ever After,
Carla and Brandt McClelland

Hi Rev. Don,
Just wanted to let you know what a great time we had in New Orleans and how wonderful the wedding was. Gabarb and I have been talking about it to friends and family (and looking at all those great pictures too!). It was so easy, no stress, perfect for us. You two are tops in our book.
We are going to send a few pictures to Keith (the Limo driver). I guess he wants them for advertising. He did a great job too!
Hope all is well and hope you are enjoying Jazz Fest. You said you were fans of the blues, so don't miss Buddy Guy!
