Erika Enns (she/her/hers)

I didn’t spend my childhood dreaming about my wedding, but as I have ventured through my own marriage, the importance of the wedding day keeps coming up.

A wedding is so much more than just a good party and a beautiful outfit! The vows a couple speaks to each other are so important. Almost three decades into my own marriage, I think I realize now more than ever the weight of those vows.

My husband, Matt, and I have been married since 1997. In that time, life has changed a lot! We’ve gone from squeezing in dates while raising growing kids to navigating our new stage of life as empty nesters and enjoying the adventures of having adult children.

No matter what life has had in store for us, it’s always been important that we make time for each other. Sometimes we have to remember to slow down and just enjoy the small moments together. Making our marriage a priority is never something we regret.

When I’m not officiating, I can be found working as a relationship coach, dreaming of my next travel destination or just hanging out with my family. My favourite jobs ever are being a wife and a mother.

I absolutely love connecting with people, hearing their stories and finding the gold in them. I want to help couples create a ceremony that is creative, intimate and specific to who they are and what they stand for.

 

Testimonials

  • These guys are the best! They know what great customer service is and they execute on it every single time. I got the rockin wedding package and they let me customize our ceremony 100%. Can’t say enough good things about these guys. I had Erika for my officiant. She’s just the loveliest person and is a truly talented officiant. I love the way she writes.

    Gina & Brett
  • Erika was the PERFECT person to lead our wedding ceremony. From the moment I met her, her warm and engaging nature made me feel comfortable and at ease. After just one coffee visit and a short intake form, Erika created a draft ceremony script that was as if she had known Gary and I our whole lives. During the ceremony, she struck the perfect balance between having us and our guests in sentimental tears and light-hearted laughs, which is exactly what we wanted. Our wedding involved the fusion of Western and Sikh cultures, and Erika created a ceremony that honoured our parents and our backgrounds in a unique and perfect way, and gave us words of wisdom to remember as we move on in our marriage together. I cry every time I think of our ceremony and how perfect it was. Thank you for being such an important part of the start of our new lives together.

    Jessica & Gary
  • We were engaged in early April and between the pandemic and having all of our family on the other side of the country, we were unsure how we would plan our wedding. After scrolling through different wedding officiant services, something about YHMs page caught our eye. We had no idea where or when, but we sent off an email. From the very first response we could tell we chose correctly. They were so helpful and quick to respond, they spent time helping us decide where, and when we gave them our date, they immediately said they could accommodate us. Erika our officiant was so helpful with handling most of the wedding license process and guided us with the rest.

    On our special day, our officiant Erika greeted us like old friends and we instantly felt comfortable. She was the perfect addition to our day and we will remember her fondly always! Our photographer, Erica, was also out of this world. She was there for the entire process from the first email. Showing us photos of locations and helping us decide on the perfect time. We got married standing next to the ocean at sunset and it was PERFECT. Erica even watched the weather and the tides leading up to our day to ensure the perfect day. Her genuine sincerity and the level of care that she puts into her clients and her work, is unmatched. We cannot imagine our day with anyone else. We are both pretty shy and Erica was able to direct us, without really telling us to pose, by just getting us to be ourselves and laugh; she was incredible. The photos are absolutely stunning; she captured every moment and every emotion in that moment. Our photos will forever make us laugh, cry and smile at all the detail and emotion she captured.

    Everything with YHM was so seamless and stress-free, everything was planned so well and the communication was flawless. We wouldn’t change a thing about our day and we would recommend YHM to anyone who’s looking for something different, unique or personally tailored to what you had in mind – this group of people can make it happen. Thank you again, YHM!

    Shelby & Curt
  • Young Hip and Married is an exceptional group of people who we felt genuinely cared that we have the best wedding experience possible, from the very beginning to the big day, and even after! We so appreciated the entire process, and the flexibility for us to be involved in the writing of the ceremony. Both us and our guests were blown away on the execution by Erika on the day of the wedding. Certainly a milestone moment in our lives we will look back on with smiles on our faces.

    Sam & Scott
  • We really want to thank Erika and the YH&M team for guiding us along our wedding journey, and making designing the ceremony an enjoyable, collaborative experience. Erika was so responsive and accommodating of our preferences. We highly recommend the YH&M team!

    S & L
  • Dealing with Young Hip & Married was great. They found the perfect fit officiant for us and Erika was amazing. We were wanting a quick and efficient ceremony and Erika delivered. While still making it personal and having our story to tell, she 10000% delivered. Thank you so much Erika for making our wedding so special!

    Janine & Hussain
  • In the past few years, I’ve been to a lot of weddings. They’ve all been beautiful, but none of the ceremonies felt like something I would want to have for my wedding. Young Hip & Married gave us the most amazing officiant, Erika, who blew us away with the way she was able to really understand us and blow us away with our customized ceremony! I would absolutely recommend them to every couple who wants their unique love story to be incorporated into their marriage ceremony.

    Jennifer & Anthony
  • I used YOUNG HIP AND MARRIED, to help assign an officiant for my elopement wedding. It was short notice and they were able to assign a wonderful officiant named Erika to come to our wedding. I really liked how efficient the company is; their main contact who organised everything with me always was available for any questions or problems that arose via text. Also being not super religious, I found the marriage vows the officiant wrote for us were perfect and did not focus on any religious aspects. Everything went smoothly, the price we paid for this company was very suitable. I would highly recommend it to young couples who want to take the hassle out of arranging an officiant and a photographer because the YH&M team will arrange it for you as part of their package (Depending on which package you select).

    Tina & Stephen
  • We cannot recommend YH&M enough, and in particular our absolutely amazing officiant Erika Enns. From the administration, to the owners, to our officiant, everyone was quick to respond, invested in our vision, and most importantly kind. We were one of the couples affected by the Sea to Sky Gondola, and they went above and beyond to ensure our officiant could make our new location for both our rehearsal and wedding. Our ceremony was personal and special, with all our guests saying it was the best they had seen!

    Crystal & Dave
  • We knew Young Hip and Married would be the best choice after watching my sister have such a positive experience at her own wedding two years previous – we were lucky enough to get the same officiant, Erika! The entire experience from the initial emails, to the video chats with Jackie-Deane and Erika, to our actual wedding was such a delight. Everyone was patient, understanding, and flexible. Our needs were acknowledged and met with the upmost positivity. The day of our wedding was absolutely beautiful – Erika really engaged the guests, and kept the ceremony light and fun, which was the exact atmosphere that we were looking for. We cannot suggest anyone else other than YH&M to do your wedding; you will not regret it as we certainly did not! Thanks again to everyone on the team who ensured we had an amazing day!!!

    Josephine & Jeremy
  • Thank you so much for being our amazing and lovely officiant!! And thank you for being flexible when ceremony got delayed. We received so many compliments from guests about how well you set the mood and the way you spoke and everything was perfect!! We feel so fortunate to have been married by you, Erika!

    Lidia & Edmund
  • We originally wanted to elope but YHM had an option of elopement with 20 guests and photographer. We are very happy we went with this as our families wanted to be witnesses. Both the photographer (Sarah) and the officiant (Erika) were great! There were some last minute changes and they were very flexible. Definitely recommend this company.

    Linsey & Nicholas
  • We both disliked the idea of a big wedding. YH&M provided us with all that we could ever need in a ceremony. Officiant Erika and photographer Tanja were both very professional. We had to hike less than 20mins to our destination (note: for a tiny extra travel fee) however overall worth it compared to paying thousands had we gone the “traditional route.”

    Jen & Eric
  • We had a wonderful experience with YH&M! They were communicative from the start up until the big day. They had great suggestions for locations, pictures and vows. Overall, a great experience and would recommend to our friends!

    Megan & Jeremy
  • Erika was lovely and very easy to work with. Our Elopement ceremony was held on our boat in Vancouver harbour. Young Hip and Married helped us coordinate our amazing day and remained flexible as we finalized details. We enjoyed meeting Erica and loved her warm, friendly personality, her humour and positive, cheery demeanour. Overall, our day was exactly what we wanted. We would recommend Young, Hip and Married to anyone wanting to get married.

    Jodi & Rob
  • We are so happy that we went with YH&M for our wedding. The ceremony is such a special part and the ability to have an officiant that helps tailor the ceremony to who you are as a couple with the ability to say what you want to say is important. Erika Enns was our officiant and we knew from our first meeting that she was perfect for us. She was so easy to talk to, super friendly and we loved her energy. Being able to work on a wedding script with her was easy and all the tips and links she provided were really helpful when it came to making our ceremony personal to us. Thank you for being a part of our special day!

    Felicia & Ryan
  • We have nothing but wonderful things to say about Young Hip & Married. Erika performed our ceremony and it was beautiful. She was a pleasure to work with from the start to the finish. The ceremony was personalized and exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend these wonderful people to be a part of your special day!
    Erika, we can’t thank you enough for the beautiful ceremony you created for us! We’ve had so many comments about the lovely ceremony and the presence you created.  And you were an absolute pleasure to work with.  Thanks for making it so personal and special.

  • It truly was the best day! We are very happy to have hired you and to have found Young Hip and Married, a delight to work with. Very professional and communicative. It’s stressful going through all the steps to plan and you made it very simple and easy for us! I would recommend you in a heartbeat!
    Thanks again!

  • Such a great business to work with. They cater to you, by making your ceremony exactly how you dream of it. We are so pleased to have gotten to work with Erika. She made it feel so personal and stress free! Saying my vows in front of people absolutely scared me, but she made me feel so comfortable. So easy to work with.

    Tasia & Kaleb
  • We were married by Erika Enns and we can’t thank her enough for marrying us! Erika helped to make our special day so perfect and we’re so grateful to be married by her.

    Our whole experience from planning and communicating with Erika and YH&M, to getting married, has been so easy and we will definitely be recommending Erika and YH&M to all our friends and family! Everyone loved how intimate and close our ceremony was.

    Erika, thank you again for being such an important part of our wedding day!

    Tiffany & Fazil
  • Such a great experience using YHM for my wedding. Super professional and lovely people – thank you!!

    Michelle & Craig
  • If you’re looking for a company with an amazing officiant service for your wedding ceremony, I highly recommend Young Hip and Married. They have a team of officiants that will take your vision of our ceremony and bring it to life.

    We had the pleasure of working with Erika Enns.  After our first meet and greet with Erika, we knew we found the perfect officiant for our wedding.

    We all sat down in a coffee shop and talked about the vision we had and what was important to us for our ceremony.  Erika was everything we needed – kind, full of energy, creative and most important it was clear that she really loves love. Erika took the time to ask all the questions to capture us as a couple.  She made sure that she knew what our love story was and what it meant to us.  She was flexible with our schedule as we had just evacuated from the 2021 floods. We spoke about vows and my husband and I were honest that we were not great with words. Erika had made us feel comfortable and sent us all the tools we needed to help guide us through our vow process.

    Following our meet and greet, Erika asked for some contact information of close friends and family.  She reached out with a questionnaire to get the scoop on our relationship for the ones who are special to us and who had supported our relationship from the very beginning.

    After receiving her questionnaires back, she got to work.  After a short time, she sent us the first draft.  As my soon-to-be husband and I read through the ceremony she created personally for us, we got emotional.  We had moments of getting teary eyed and moments of laughter. She captured us perfectly. She put us into words that we could not.

    Erika was very open to adjustments to the ceremony she had written.  We requested some small adjustments and she was happy to make them.  She was very clear that she was here for us and wanted to make sure our ceremony was everything we invisioned. Erika sent us the second draft and assured us that if we thought of anything else we wanted to add or change to reach out to her at any time.

    When it came time for our rehearsal, she was thrilled to meet us at our venue.  With our wedding party in tow, Erika guided us through the ceremony from start to finish.   She made the whole process so easy for us and continued to question us on our views.  We really felt like she had our backs from start to finish.

    When it came to the big day we were relaxed knowing that everything was planned and that there would be no surprises.  Our ceremony was everything we could have asked for and more.

    If you’re looking for an amazing officiant to bring your ceremony to life we could not be stronger in our feelings that Erika is an amazing option. She is a person we will recommend to everyone we meet on their own search for the perfect officiant.  Our experience with her was amazing. The journey we went through to plan our ceremony is a memory we will hold close forever.  Thank you so much to Erika for everything you had done to support us and create our perfect for us ceremony.

    Thank you so much for the beautiful experience.
    Cassidy & Raymond
  • We chose Young Hip & Married based on reviews and we are so happy that we did! From the beginning, they were so amazing to deal with. Erika was our officiant and she exceeded our expectations in every way possible. She gave us the exact ceremony we wanted which included our guests, giving thanks to our parents and was all about us. Erika was in constant contact with us from the very beginning. She was friendly, prompt with her responses and helped us through the entire process. We have had so many people come to us saying they have never seen a ceremony like ours and that Erika was amazing. Thank you so much Young Hip & Married, and an even bigger thanks to Erika for giving us the best ceremony we could have asked for!!

    Kendrianne
  • We had our wedding on May 22, 2022 and Erika was our officiant. My word, what a wonderful officiant. The whole process of preparing for the wedding, scripting of ceremony, rehearsing and the day itself was made so wonderful by her! Would highly recommend Young Hip and Married and also Erika!

    Melvin & Tsveta
  • We used Young Hip & Married for our wedding and couldn’t be happier with the service they provided. Erika worked with us to tailor our ceremony to be personal, funny, and engaging. We won’t need to hire them again, but anyone looking for a company that puts you in the spotlight at your wedding, and does so with care and attention, then look no further!
    Erika, we’re still on cloud nine from it all! It couldn’t have gone any better and we’re still feeling all the love from our family and friends 🙂
    Thank you so much for an awesome ceremony! The words, delivery, planning, everything was spot on and really made us feel like we were part of something special.
    Paul & Keara
  • We used Young Hip and Married to plan our small wedding ceremony. They were easy to talk to and very helpful. We had to postpone our wedding once due to covid and they were very accommodating, our photographer has to cancel the day before due to person reasons and they were able to find us a new one right away. Thanks so much, will definitely be recommending this company.

    Sierra & Michael
  • Erika, you were absolutely amazing and exceeded all expectations. You gave us the exact ceremony that we wanted, and we don’t think it could have been any better. From the start of the ceremony to the very end, it was perfect. You wrote the most beautiful ceremony that included our guests, gave thanks to our parents and was all about Jonathan and myself. So many people have come to us and said the ceremony was amazing, that you were amazing, and that it was such a heartfelt, and meaningful ceremony. I am pretty sure you had most, if not all, of our guests in tears.

    I think all that is left to say is Thank You, Thank You and Thank You. Thank you to you for everything, I don’t think we will ever be able to say how thankful we are and Thank you to Young, Hip & Married for connecting us with you. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant, or a better ceremony.

  • Such a lovely experience with Young Hip & Married. Responses were so quick whenever I had questions. Our officiant was the wonderful Erika. She listened to all our wants and needs and exceeded them! She even helped me get into my dress! So kind 🙂 highly recommend.

    Jennie & Lucas
  • We had an great experience dealing with Young Hip & Married for our wedding. We had Erika as our officiant and she was amazing.

    Alma & Colin
  • I hired Erika to be the officiant for our wedding day and she is AMAZING! We had to postpone our wedding 4 times due to Covid and every time she was available and very understanding. Her communication is great and response time is fast. I had my rehearsal the same day she had to officiate at another wedding and she was still able to make it on time for my rehearsal. I am so happy with this service and will recommend this company to anyone getting married.

    Tamara & Palmer
  • One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was choosing Erika from YH&M to be our officiant. From the moment we had our first meeting, we knew we had made the right choice. She was extremely helpful, kind, flexible, generous and insightful. She created the most incredible custom ceremony for us, something we will cherish forever. There was not a dry eye in the room! She made us feel comfortable and at ease during our wedding ceremony and we wouldn’t change one thing about our experience. Thank you Erika, you made our wedding dreams come true!!

    Tazmin & Shahaan
  • I’m so glad I reached out to Young Hip & Married. They made the whole process very simple and hassle free. Our wedding officiant was Erika and she was so nice to work with. Highly recommended!

    Alvin & Akemi
  • Erika, thank you so so much!! You are absolutely amazing! It really was the perfect day and all of our friends and family love what you had said and all the special moment you included (the hell yeah!, Rock Paper Scissors and the high five!). I have to say I will be recommending you to all of my friends because you made our day even more special!

    Solana & Justin
  • Erika was our officiant and I cannot say enough good things about her; she was incredible. She made everything so comfortable and easy for everyone it felt like I had known her forever. She was extremely prompt with communication and any edits I had to the writing were changed immediately without any problems. She was there for the rehearsal which was wonderful and was able to tell everyone where to go and run though it all which was a huge relief. The writing was wonderful – short and sweet but was also packed with a ton of emotion and meaning. She really took our story and made it personal (which was exactly what we asked for). Everyone was laughing and crying and everyone had something good to say about Erika. Highly recommend to anyone.

    Maria & Nigel
  • You were so nice and precise, and everything went well; you guys made our day. I am so so happy you enjoyed our local cuisine, it was our pleasure. Thanks again once more and have a blessed day.

    Austin & Rita
  • This post is long over due, but here it is! I want to give a huge shout out to Erika, our officiant who went above and beyond to make my wedding happen. We were originally meant to get married on March 21, 2020 but that was the week everything was shutting down due to Covid-19. We had to cancel our big events that very week and we were unsure as to whether we could even continue with our smaller events. It was definitely stressful. So we called Erika to ask her if she was available earlier and she said she was. On March 16 (5 days earlier), Erika came to our house and made our ceremony happen. There were only 5 of us (me, my husband, Erika, her mom and friend as two witnesses) in our living room. Now it’s 5 months later and I am so happy that we made the decision that we did. I want to thank Erika for being so professional and so amazing. I would recommend Young Hip & Married and especially Erika!! Thank you again for making one of the most important days so special.

    Sabina & Joe
  • Erika was amazing. She knocked our ceremony out of the park, it was so special.

    Maegen & Marc
  • YH&M was so great. The team was super helpful and supportive throughout the pandemic ups and downs, including numerous date changes. We took Shawn’s really beneficial vow writing course, and Erika, our officiant, was so lovely, organized, and helped create a beautiful ceremony. Can’t recommend them enough!

    Kate & Raul
  • Super easy folks to work with at YH&M! Erika married us this autumn, and Amber-Leigh was our photographer. It was a blast. We were laughing until we were in tears. Will highly recommend to anyone I know!

    Lucia & Baron
  • Thank you SO much for your attention to detail and sense of humour, you got us so well. It was really fun having you part of it and literally wouldn’t change a thing! You adapted your script to suit us and I loved it, you made us laugh too, love that even more!

    Cassandra & Trevor
  • We loved our ceremony and I’ve had lots of comments on how great you were! Thank you so much for an amazing ceremony and for being so flexible!

    Heather & Jordan
  • Very professional, such an amazing time, everything was so easy. Thank you!!
    Lunaris Valencia family now ❤️

    Mark & Shadow
  • We could not have been happier with Erika and the entire team at YH&M. Everything went perfectly, it was easy to talk to everyone handling all the details and when the day finally came, Erika went above and beyond to make everything just as we had hoped it would turn out. She was compassionate and we’re so grateful that she helped us through something we had hoped would never be stressful. Couldn’t thank this team anymore, and would absolutely highly recommend them to anyone!
    Reese & Mikah
  • Erika – thank you so much!! You were wonderful, and so many people told us that ours was one of the best ceremonies they’d been to.

  • You were an incredibly important part of our day. Thank you so much for the most perfect ceremony. Your words and the way you led the ceremony was absolutely perfect. It could not have been better. We are very happy and we are so lucky you were a part of our very special day. Truly was magical!!
    Thank you a million times from both of us and the whole family. We greatly appreciate what you brought to our day.
    Natalie & Paulius
  • Ahhhhh it was such a dream! It almost feels like it didn’t happened it passed by so fast! Awww it was truly a pleasure having you; I couldn’t imagine anyone better for the job! You handled the rain with so much grace as well, I barely even felt that it was raining to be honest!

    Mariah & Anthony
  • We got married in our home on Nov 7/21 and Erika Enns was our wedding officiant. She did a great job performing our wedding ceremony in front of our 4 adult children. She was professional and spontaneous and helped make our ceremony a very special and memorable one. I would highly recommend Young Hip & Married if you are looking to tie the knot!

    Jinet & Michael
  • We had a last minute wedding, but YH&M were able to fit us in and we are so happy they did! Erika was so wonderful to work with and she did such an amazing job officiating our wedding. We honestly couldn’t have been happier. Thank you for helping to make our day so perfect for us!

    Katie & Anthony
  • We worked with Erika from YH&M for our wedding at Camp Fircom on the Sept long weekend. It was great right from the first meeting (we had 2). Her energy was great, we really clicked, and she was open to doing the ceremony different ways if we wanted, which was really comforting and refreshing for us. Before our second meeting she sent us what she had been working on, it was amazing, truly brought tears to our eyes as it touched us so. For the actual event, Erika was awesome. At the beginning of the ceremony, her presence commanded attention but not in an overbearing way at all. As soon as we were there she made us the focal point without us feeling nervous at all. The words she spoke were just as good as when we read them for the first time before that second meeting. She was engaging, she had warmth, and she spoke with meaningfulness. I would recommend YH&M and Erika to anyone, you’ll get a ceremony you’ll remember for all the right reasons!

  • We will recommend Erika from YH&M until the ends of the earth! After only a 2-hour coffee date with (us over a year before our wedding date), she wrote a ceremony script that seemed like she’s known us for years. We were able to collaborate on the script and make any changes we needed, and Erika offered us lots of different options for vows, ring exchanges and readings so that we could pick the ones that suited us the best. Our guests have raved about how personal and special our ceremony was ever since.

    Erika was quick to respond to emails and was super flexible when we had to postpone our wedding due to Covid – she even wrote an abridged version of our ceremony for our elopement! Everything at YH&M was so smooth and stress-free, the team was easy to communicate with, made getting matched with Erika a breeze and were there to support us through the stressful postponement (twice) of our wedding day. The money spent on YH&M was by far the best choice at our wedding and we would do it over and over again.

    Rebecca & Mark
  • I’m so glad that we chose Young Hip and Married to officiate our wedding! Erika was awesome in every way; a great combination of fun, sincerity and professionalism. She took the time to really get to know us and helped make the ceremony exactly as we hoped it would be. We can’t thank you enough, Erika! The day was magical and we truly appreciate all that you did to make it that way!

    Cathy & Doug
  • We had Erika as our wedding officiant and she was awesome! Very easy going right from the start and accommodated our date changes as our plans changed a few times. When we finally confirmed a new ceremony location and date we chose her without question even though there were other officiants in the area closer to the new location. She took a ferry for us and gave a beautiful personalized intimate ceremony. Definitely recommend as she made our wedding day special and everything went smoothly from start to finish.

    Kathleen & Bradley
  • We had the best day ever and enjoyed every moment of our wedding – even the rain! Thank you so much for your assistance throughout the ups and downs of planning our wedding during a pandemic. We loved having you be a part of our day!

    Brittany & Jeremy
  • Thank you once again for being our marriage officiant! You made the whole process very easy for us, including the rest of the Young Hip & Married team.

    Alvin & Jumi
  • Young Hip & Married made the process of hiring an officiant a breeze! We absolutely loved our officiant Erika Enns at our wedding in Squamish. After our initial call with her, she pulled bits and pieces from our story and sent us a beautiful personalized script to review and we were able to edit the live document – this process was so easy and gave us the ability to tweak any wording that we wanted. Erika was calm, easy going and a great vibe; she put on such a beautiful ceremony.

    Matt & Georgia
  • We recently travelled to Vancouver from Ontario and put our faith in Young Hip and Married to make it all happen. They quickly assigned us an officiant who ended up being Erika. Erika helped up find the exact location after just showing her a picture of a previous wedding posted on the website. She knew how to get us the right answers and her communication was wonderful. Erika’s husband served as one of our witnesses and he so kindly took it upon himself to video our ceremony as it was just the two of us. They were so friendly and made our wedding so very special as they delivered a short, intimate ceremony we were hoping for. Big thanks to Erika and the Young Hip and Married team!!

    Sarah & Jonathan
  • Wedding by Erika was precise, and she came on time to the wedding site, communication was very great and same with the organisation. Erika made our day and the site was very easy to use; whenever you wanted to communicate plus the quick response to messages, anytime you are lost on anything.

    Austin & Rita
  • Loved our officiant Erika! She made our ceremony so personalised and was there to help every step of the way. Amazing company, highly recommend!

    Lindsay & Tyler
  • Erika, you were an amazing officiant and we we’re so happy you were the one to officiate our marriage! You were so accommodating due to the weather and the schedule changes and still provided us with a special ceremony that didn’t feel rushed. You really helped validate our vows and unite us as one and shared a sense of humour with the sea planes going by! We wouldn’t have had it any other way! Thank you for creating a moment in time that we will never forget! You are the best!!

    Sarah & Joe
  • Matt and I are so lucky to have worked with such kind-hearted souls like you, Madalena and Marcelo! You set a beautiful tone to our day and could not have asked for a more magical ceremony.

    Matthew & Elsie
  • Couldn’t have asked for a smoother process. I got the Elopement & Photography Plus package and everyone from the officiant to our photographer was absolutely wonderful! Highly recommend their services.

    Ashly & Dustin
  • I couldn’t be happier with the services we received. Our officiant was amazing and so thorough with us considering we were getting married out of province, and the initial reach out (I guess you could call that our coordinator/customer service rep) was phenomenal in getting us the perfect officiant. 100/10 would recommend this company to everyone I know who is getting married/eloping.

    Selina & Daniel
  • Thank you so much for celebrating with us! You were wonderful to work with – I think we were both so calm because of you!
    We couldn’t have asked for more – the service was seamless and beautiful and the weather was perfect. Aside from the small blip of stress when we found out they closed the park, it was everything I imagined and more!
    Thanks again for everything – running the service so smoothly and guiding us through the ceremony. We’re so happy you shared that moment with us!
    Mandy & Josef
  • Hitting speed-bumps are a natural and sometimes common occurrence when planning a wedding, but our officiant Erika and the entire team at Young Hip and Married, really went the extra mile to take care of us! Erika was unbelievably amazing! Personable, professional, and prompt. She took the time to really get to know us and made sure that our ceremony was the best representation of us as a couple. The best part was the love our friends and family expressed afterwards for the presentation and delivery of our story – some friends even left with the intention of hiring YH&M as one of their vendors! Our only wish would be to have had Erika stay for the reception for a celebratory drink for making our day perfect! Thank you Erika and YH&M – you’re the best!

    Erika, we wanted to reach out to you to thank you for doing such an amazing job for us and in such a short amount of time! We honestly had multiple friends and family come up to us afterwards and say how great of a job you did and how much they liked you. After the ceremony, one of the couples even took note of YH&M because they thought you did such a good job and so they might want to go with you for their wedding!

  • We worked with Erika Enns at YHM for our wedding in July 2022, and honestly wouldn’t have asked for a more perfect ceremony. With just a phone call and questionnaire, Erika worked her magic to create the most personal, engaging and totally authentic ceremony. She totally understood what we were looking for, and managed to create something hugely emotional without any cliches, cringe or cheesy moments. Every one of our guests commented on how personal the ceremony felt, and how different it was to so many weddings they’d attended in the past. Erika and Jackie-Deane were a dream to work with, and made the whole process totally seamless. We couldn’t have asked for anything more – thank you so much!

  • I can’t rate them high enough!!! Erika was absolutely incredible!! She made us feel so comfortable on the day and through the entire process. Love this company!!!
    Erika, you were simply magical. Not only were you the right fit for Ryan and I but my guests continually came up to me after the ceremony and said how beautiful your words were and how calm and chilled out you conducted our ceremony. We couldn’t have asked for anything more and are just so happy with how it all turned out. Thank you so much for being apart of our special day. We will never forget it!

  • Erika,

    We wanted to thank you so much for the great job you did and the positive energy you brought to our wedding ceremony. It was so perfect and we really appreciated how easy you made this whole process for us. Your card was a very thoughtful touch as well!

    We will definitely be recommending you to any friends/family that are getting married in the future.

    Katharine & Jason
  • We just wanted to say thank you so much, Erika! We really appreciated you being there and we couldn’t have asked for a better officiant! Thanks for all of your work and also your flexibility with COVID19 and the sudden change in venue.

  • So many of our guests told us the ceremony was their favourite part. You did the most amazing job, completely surpassing our expectations! I remember reading your first draft and crying happy tears because you just got us and captured us so perfectly. Thank you so much for your well wishes. I can only hope Michael and I will have a long and happy marriage like you and your husband!

    Erika & Michael
  • We recently had Erika as our celebrant and it was by far the best decision we made. Erika completely understood us and customized our ceremony. So many of our guests told us their favourite part of the wedding was the ceremony. She was equal parts funny and emotional and captured us so perfectly. In addition to the fact she’s an amazing celebrant, it’s so obvious she loves what she does and is an amazing person. I just wish we could do it all over again!

    Erika & Michael
  • Cannot recommend YH&M more! We worked with Erika as an officiant for our small elopement, and since we sent our first email reaching out, to the moment we said our “I do”s, the service was so incredibly personal, warm and helpful. They were supportive of us using our own format, including adding in a few extra moments that were not originally in the script. On top of all of this, they also took care of all the paperwork for us, making everything post-elopement a breeze. Despite only ever meeting Erika on the day of our wedding, our guests all felt like we already had an existing relationship with her. Thank you so much for the amazing support and service!

  • BEST officiant ever!! We had the pleasure of having Erika be our officiant on our big day! We have been with her for 2 years and 2 reschedules, and her communication and understanding is amazing! She rewrote our script when we asked without hesitation, and always made sure we were happy! She is sooo sweet, friendly and lovely to be around.

    Erika was super helpful during our rehearsal and gave us such ease of mind before leaving to make sure everything was running smoothly. She gave amazing suggestions and advice. Our script was personalized and beauitful. We had sooo many compliments about Erika throughout the night and after the wedding about how great she was and that was the best wedding and ceremony they ever been to!

    She had everyone is smiles, tears and laughter. She knew the moments to step aside to be out of photos. Couldn’t have asked for a better officiant!

    Hire Young, Hip & Married, you won’t regret it!! Yes they are a bit more expensive, but you only get married once and they will make sure you have the best ceremony possible! They are worth every penny and more!

    Thank you sooo much Young, Hip & Married and a special thank you to Erika!

    Joanne & TJ
  • Erika was a wonderful officiant! She spoke warmly and clearly at the ceremony, and working with them up to the day was smooth and they were so accommodating.

    Claire & Mike
  • My wife and I used Erika as our officiant, and she couldn’t have been better. I rate 5/5 easily, and would recommend her services to anyone. She was professional, friendly, and really made our ceremony special. Thank you!

  • YH&M made everything easy and stress free! The officiant and photographer were both amazing. No complaints whatsoever!

  • Thank you so much for being part of our wedding day! We had the most amazing time and are so grateful for Young Hip and Married because we had such a great experience. There were a lot of things to be nervous about after so much anticipation, but I couldn’t have asked for a better day!

    Rose & Marlon
  • We have nothing but good things to say about Erika and the staff at YH&M! They were able to work with us and advise on the difficult procedures to do with COVID restrictions. When our original officiant with them had to drop out due to unforeseen circumstances, we were set up with a new and also great replacement immediately.

    Erika and the YH&M team were great and helped us with the replanning of our wedding during the COVID pandemic. She tailored a wonderful ceremony for us, and ensured that we were able to have a safe wedding.

    Cierra & Matt
  • First off, what a way to kick off a west coast wedding! Even with the pouring rain, it was such an amazing wedding that we will forever cherish. Erika and I met a few days before the wedding for the very first time and she immediately felt like family.

    On the wedding day, she came to pick me up at our hotel in Whistler and drove me to Pemberton so my husband and I could have our first look. We spent most of the drive talking as if we’ve known each other for a while. During the ceremony it rained so much that her iPad stopped working so she had to recite the rest of the ceremony from memory. What a beautiful ceremony it was.

    We are forever blessed to have had a family member (cousin), to officiate our wedding. Even more special, that it was Erika!

    Amy & Alex
  • I discovered Young Hip and Married when I was searching for places and ways to elope! Ironically, the day we decided to get married in Vancouver (the day before we were leaving on an Alaskan cruise), Tara had emailed me to see if I had any questions! It was fate! Our fairytale started right then!! Erika was an amazing officiant, walking us through the whole process!! She did an awesome job, finding a great spot in Stanley Park to marry us!! Victoria was our photographer and she, too, made us feel so comfortable and special!!! Thanks for your professionalism and detail!! We could not have been happier with our “Young, Hip, and Crazy” elopement (7 hours after flying in from Chicago)!!

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!

    Barb & Ross
  • We had a small wedding ceremony in Stanley Park set up by Pop Up Weddings and we loved our officiant, Erika. Shawn set us up for success with tips and pointers and an outline prior to the big day so we could write up our vows. I’ve also seen them in action at a friend’s wedding and highly recommend.

  • Thank you so much for your kind words! Everyone said that you did such a fantastic job and people really got a kick out of the hand fasting. It was different and a little unique, so thank you for making it happen! I’ve enjoyed my experience with you and the company since day 1. If someone were to ask me what legendary customer service is, I’d point at you guys!

  • Erika officiated our helicopter elopement and she was wonderful! She was super warm, caring, and fun. We appreciated how she took an interest in us as people, and that was a big part of what made our ceremony feel perfect. The entire Young,Hip & Married team was excellent as well! Dayna was always very responsive and helpful and we felt supported the whole way through. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend YH&M to anyone seeking a unique elopement experience.

    Lena & Steve
  • Young Hip & Married and our officiant, Erika Enns, made our special day even more special! We had an amazing small ceremony at the Lighthouse Park in Vancouver and everything went fantastic! From our first contact to the moment we got our Marriage Certificate – everything was organized professionally, timely communication and important reminders. Definitely recommend these guys!

    Irina & Curtis
  • Callan and I knew that we were looking for something different when it came to our ceremony. Not the traditional wedding officiant style that we had seen at weddings before. When we began our planing, we had not heard of Young Hip & Married until our wedding planner shared their website with us. After reviewing each of the team members videos and bios, we decided to meet Erika. Within 3 minutes of meeting Erika, we felt like we had been friends with her for 20 years and that she had been alongside our journey together the entire time. It was a perfect fit. The ceremony that Erika created was truly beautiful and perfectly us. The entire process was amazing from the first interview to each and every interaction we had with Erika and the YH&M team! I remember the day we got our first draft and I cried when I read it, because she had captured every essence of our relationship and love for one another in a way that was us. Best decision we made by far and would highly recommend them to anyone!!

    Jessica & Callan
  • Thank you so much for being our officiant Erika. We were both extremely happy with the ceremony, vows, everything really. I thought you brought a calming energy as well as a genuine happiness and excitement – it felt like we had known you for years. Thanks for doing such a fantastic job!

    J.R. & Katherine
  • Erika is so amazing! She took the time to get to know us to understand what we want. She respected our decisions and was always willing to help, which made the process total hassle free. Thank you Erika!

    Echo & Roy
  • My husband and I recently got married and our officiant, Erika, was amazing. She made the process so easy and we felt very comfortable and relaxed at our wedding. All of our guests loved her and thought our ceremony was really fun and beautiful. Young Hip and Married is an awesome business and I highly recommend them.

    Sadie & Isidoro
  • Young Hip & Married came recommended to us by family who are located in BC and had used them for their elopement. They praised how amazing they were to deal with and how great it was that they took care of everything. Being based in Saskatchewan proved to be no hurdle or barrier to amazing customer service from beginning to end, suggesting great locations for our elopement in BC and helping with anything from what we would need to get married within city limits with links to everything and all of the things you’d never think to ask. Danya was great to deal with from start to finish.

    Our officiant Erika was absolutely phenomenal. She put together an amazing ceremony for us and thought of so many things we wouldn’t think to consider even down to sneaking out of frame before the “I Do” so that we had an amazing photo of our first kiss. She was super accommodating, thoughtful and considerate throughout the entire experience.

    Erica was an amazing photographer and helped my husband and I through the entire session as a couple who have never had professional photos done. She had an amazing eye for great shots and was an absolute joy to spend our time with.

    I cannot recommend Young Hip and Married enough. They were absolutely amazing! If you’re thinking of eloping, going with YH&M is an absolute no brainer! <3

    Holly & Jesse
  • Thank you so much! You did an amazing job and we got so many compliments on how well of a job you did and how awesome you are!! I will definitely be recommending you to every single person I know getting married with out a doubt!! I so wish we could redo that day (without any of the planning lol) it was serious a dream come true!

    Brittany & Ken
  • Our officiant, Erika Enns, and Tara were extremely helpful, kind and dedicated. Can’t recommend them enough!

    Katrina Xavier
  • Erika officiated our elopement and she was absolutely amazing!! She was so friendly and easygoing, and she tailored our ceremony so that it was exactly what we wanted. If you are looking for an officiant I cannot recommend YHM enough!

    Emily & Matthew
  • We had an excellent experience with Young Hip & Married, who facilitated our intimate ceremony even whilst everything was disrupted by COVID. The communication was great throughout, and our officiant Erika really took the time to get to know us and make our ceremony special. Would definitely recommend!

    Giles & Alecia
  • We had an excellent experience with Young Hip & Married. They made the whole process extremely seamless and allowed us to get married within a month of deciding to in a country very far away from where we are!

    Erika, our officiant, was terrific to work with. Very responsive and flexible to any requests we made and also had an excellent rapport with our photographers. She arrived early and our ceremony was short and sweet – exactly how we wanted it.

    Would highly recommend Young Hip & Married!

    Zhihao & Lyanne
  • Young Hip & Married are an incredible team that provide the very best service. We wanted a quiet, personal and intimate experience and thanks to this wonderful team, we got just what we wanted. I highly recommend you try Young Hip & Married if you ever thought of having that special day with that special someone. They will be with you every step of the way, helping you through what can be an overwhelming experience and making it an easy journey to fulfill. Thank you to everyone at Young Hip & Married and thank you to Erika Enns, our officiant, for leading our elopement and for being a delightful human!

    Raphael & Maïté
  • We had such an amazing experience working with young hip & married. Especially our officiant Erika! Despite not being able to meet prior to our wedding due to Covid-19, the email communication was very prompt! I cant tell you the amount of times I bugged Rebecca and Erika with questions/changing of time line. They both were so great throughout the entire process. Erika was so kind, funny and all around a good time. Our ceremony was short and sweet just how we wanted it, in that short time of talking/meeting Erika my husband and I both felt so comfortable!! Not everyday you meet a “stranger” and feel so comfortable around them. To anyone who is looking for a fantastic officiant I would highly recommend working with young hip & married, especially Erika!

    Tennille & Conrad
  • Thank you, Erika. You made our special day even more special with your kindness and professionalism.

    Everything was excellent and Erika is a wonderful person. She made our special day more remarkable and memorable. Punctuality and professionalism but kindness and a lovely person celebrating. Thank you.

    Beverley & Vittorio
  • I wanted to reach out to you to say a big thank you for officiating our marriage last week. You did a wonderful job and we couldn’t imagine having anyone else there to do it. It was so lovely to finally meet you, we will definitely be recommending you to our friends and family! All the best, and thank you again!
    Emily & Matt
  • We truly felt you captured Dave and I as a couple during our ceremony. It was an amazing day and we are so happy that we had you as our officiant!

    Kailah & Dave
  • One the best choices made as part of our wedding planning process. Erika. Is. AMAZING! Super friendly and charismatic! We opted for the Custom and Creative Ceremony option and, while it was a bit on the pricey side, it was worth every penny with many of our guests saying they loved the ceremony as it was unique and different from so many weddings they have attended in the past.

    Don & Rebecca
  • The team at Young Hip & Married were such a pleasure to work with! Erika, our officiant, and Rebecca in customer relations were quick to respond to all our questions about the big day and made us feel prepared and at ease! My husband and I loved every second of our special day and we highly recommend Young Hip & Married!!
