Erika Enns (she/her/hers)

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

Excellent and amazing service! Couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Thank you again for everything!

Our experience with Erika was perfect. She was very warm and personable at our first meeting and her calm, attentive demeanor put us at ease. She addressed all of our wishes, had us consider many important points, and made sure that our personal story would be integrated into the ceremony. She also suggested that we include our son, which we loved and did. It truly made it that much more meaningful for us all.

On the day of the ceremony she saw us through it like a pro, even though she is terrified of birds! The only reason that we mention it is that we had an outdoor ceremony and right in the middle of it a big bird swooped down right at us! Again, Erica handled it like a pro and didn’t miss a beat. She had our guests entertained and crying with joy and laughter all at the same time. Again, she was perfect.

Overall, our experience was fantastic and our big day was something we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Erika to any prospective couple. She is professional, calm and executed the ceremony flawlessly.

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.

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

Erika officiated our wedding on Thanksgiving weekend and was an absolute dream to work with. We had constant and quick communication lines open with her from the day we signed on. Our ceremony was absolutely gorgeous and Erika played the biggest role in that, we chose the custom and creative ceremony and were shocked at how little we actually needed or wanted to do & change.

Our ceremony went off without a hitch and was very personalised to my (now) husband and I. Erika guided us through this process and made me feel completely comfortable and confident in everything that was going to happen surrounding the wedding. YH&M is not your “average” officiant service, they really do care and truly want to support you through your big day.

I couldn’t reccomend Erika enough and if you are in the fraser valley looking for an officiant I highly suggest you get in touch with her!

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.

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!

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!

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding (Sept 15th, 2018) was hiring YHM…Erika was professional, thoughtful, kind, patient, generous with her expertise and spirit and powerfully eloquent. Not only was she able to guide us throughout the process but she also found a beautiful way to incorporate our two different cultures and families into the ceremony. She knew exactly how to take our vision and manifest it into action and in such a calm and grounding way. She gave us the peace we needed to just take in our day. Everything was perfect, due in large part to her hard work. We cannot recommend YHM enough.

Erika and the team at Young Hip and Married helped us make the most out of our Covid restricted wedding. Right from the start they helped us navigate what we could do and helped make our day special. Would definitely recommend 🙂

We would HIGHLY recommend Young Hip and Married. They set us up with our officiant, Erika Enns, for our wedding at the Fraser River Lodge in Aggasiz. Erika was communicative, asked all the right questions and was flexible when we had to change our date due to COVID restrictions. She created a beautiful ceremony for us that was customized with our love story and worked with us to make us feel comfortable. We received a lot of feedback that the ceremony was so “us” and that it was “perfect.” We agree! Thanks to Erika and Young Hip and Married!

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!

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!

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!

Thank you so much Erika (& the rest of the YHM team)!! Appreciate your flexibility and patience especially in this crazy time. Unreal service!! Again, from the bottom of our hearts…thank you!!! Appreciate it all.

Amazing experience! Erika Enns was our officiant and her script was amazing. I loved all the options and how great the communication was. I will forever recommend them to whoever needs this service!

I am Colin’s mom and I just want to thank you for presiding over their vows on Friday. Obviously the event is highly emotional and I would say even tense! But I commented to Colin and Jaime that I felt your introduction before their vows allowed us all to catch our breath, relax, and then really enjoy the ceremony that followed. I  appreciated your small injections of humour during the ceremony and the way you spoke, and what you said was truly beautiful. I know you must do many, many of these ceremonies but of course for us it’s just the one. It felt to me that you treated it as if it was just the one for you too! So I asked Colin for your email to specifically thank you for making the ceremony so wonderful for all of us!! Thanks again!

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!

WOW! Professional, personalized, individualized, and exactly what you want during your ceremony.

Our wesding officiant, Erika, started with meeting with us. Then she emailed us with a questionnaire to make a personalized script for the ceremony. Not only was it amazing, but she even reached out to the wedding party to gather some words for the ceremony too.

On the day of, Erika was spot on with presentation and keeping to schedule. She was even flexible with my request for a certain song to be played as the ceremony was coming to a close. Flexible, check!

And if you are asking for price? Absolutely it was affordable. It is based on what you are looking for and how much time you will take. I would recommend Young Hip & Married over the government officiants anyday.

Thank you, Erika. You made it a ceremony that guests were raving about and a ceremony that they listened to every word of.

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.

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!

I was referred to Young Hip & Married by my amazing photographer. YH&M were super friendly, quick & responsive to all of my questions. We got Erika Enns as our officiant & we couldn’t be any happier. She worked with us to make some small tweaks for the script to make it fit ‘us’ better. She even made recommendations for places for our engagement photos & took the time to get to know us on a more personal note.

On the day of, she met us early in the parking lot & we got to walk down to our ceremony spot together. Erika took her time & let us enjoy the moment knowing that it’s passing by so quickly. Erika was was very loving & personable it really made our ceremony smooth & effortless. Would recommend Erika for sure!

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!

Thank you so much for sharing our day with us. It was a wonderful day, thank goodness the weather held out for us. Thank you again for being our officiant, you were amazing and the ceremony was perfect for us.

We felt the ceremony went great! You were a great guide and we felt you were a seamless part of our day!

I enjoyed your officiating. I wished that I could have thanked you in person after the ceremony. You were able to give everyone in the room an excellent idea of the relationship between Mark and Rebecca. You described them both so well. Thanks so much for making this event and last summer’s event so wonderful!

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

Strongly recommend! Great experience, very in depth asking lots of questing and really getting to know the couple. Fantastic job!

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!

It’s been a few weeks since the wedding, but everything happened so fast, so it’s taken much longer to process everything! Matt and I are still in complete awe. Our wedding day was more than what I imagined it to be and it turned out to be the most loving and beautiful day in our lives.

Thank you so, so much for being part of it and making sure it was perfect. Even when my mom decided to answer the phone (lol I’ll always look back at that moment and laugh!) and when my family rolled in late, you kept your composure, continued on and made the ceremony seamless. It was dreamy, personal yet not cheesy – exactly how we wanted. You really made this process super easy for us – thank you for being so accommodating and easy to work with!

We look back and everything we invested in was so worth it! We have nothing but fond memories with the best group of people. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us! We are so grateful that you were part of the best day of our lives.

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!

Erika at Young Hip and Married went above and beyond to help make our day magical! She got to know us, captured our story and gave our guests a ceremony to remember! Thank you, Erika 🙂

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.

10/10 experience from start to finish with Erika! She is so professional, organized and genuine. She truly felt like a guest at our wedding! No one else we would have had marry us and be a part of our special day. Young Hip & Married is an absolute must!

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.

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.

We had a fantastic experience with Young Hip & Married. They matched us with our lovely officiant, Erika, who went through every detail with us, allowed us to provide feedback, and delivered a beautiful ceremony. Erika was such a wonderful presence on such a momentous day in our lives, and we are grateful to have her be a part of it.

We also really appreciated Young Hip & Married’s vow course, which helped us create beautiful, personal vows.

A bonus service of using Young Hip & Married is that they will help you find a replacement if your officiant cannot attend at the last minute. This gave us peace of mind.

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.

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.

Wow! We could not have asked for a better experience for our special day. In a (very) short amount of time Young Hip & Married was able to match us with a great location, photographer, and officiant. We loved working with Erika Enns! Her words were so powerful and we were so happy to have our wedding just the way we wanted it. The day was more than magical. Thank you Erika and Young Hip & Married for the awesome experience!

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!!

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!

This was, by far, the best avenue we could’ve taken for our wedding! Erika was an exceptional officiant who kept in contact with us from day one, made sure everything we wanted was included in the ceremony, and even made it as minimalist as possible for my husband when it came to his speaking parts! Our wedding was a surprise, so no one knew it was happening, and Erika blended in with the crowd with ease and played her part perfectly, even with a few wondering stares! We are so, so, happy with Young Hip and Married, and would recommend them in a heartbeat to personalize your wedding and make it a truly special day!

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!

Young Hip & Married (specifically Erika and Emily) helped me pull off a surprise wedding! There were a lot of moving parts to coordinate and they were both wonderfully supportive and patient. It turned out PERFECTLY. Erika provided us with a unique and heartfelt ceremony, and Emily captured our family perfectly through her lens. HUGE thank you to both of you! I wasn’t sure a surprise wedding was possible, but Young Hip & Married were on board (and excited!) from that first email I sent. So happy with them.

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.

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!

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 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!

We decided to get married on a rock cliff near the ocean which was a minor hike in and out. Erika showed up ready to go and was very pleasant. She made us feel very comfortable and we had a beautiful ceremony.

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 was amazing. She knocked our ceremony out of the park, it was so special.

We wanted to say a final thank you, for being such a wonderful leader for the most sacred part of our day! Thank you for saying all the important stuff… and making sure us and our brothers were following instructions!

by Emma Culling Photography

We used them through our Adventure Elopement package with Will Pursell Photography. She did a great job. And even though we had to change a location about a week or so before our wedding, due to extra covid restrictions about travel within health regions, she was understanding and polite and it all went very smooth! Would recommend them for sure!

We wanted to start by extending the biggest, heartfelt thank you to you and the Young Hip and Married team for making our day so special and magical. Erika, you did an outstanding job as our officiant. We were so thrilled with the ceremony and how comfortable you made us both feel. It was definitely the highlight of our day and we’ve had so many friends and family members raving about it. A few of the words that keep being repeated to us: magical, enchanting, authentic, intimate, funny, beautiful, and an incredible representation of you two as a couple. And we couldn’t agree more!

Erika made us feel really comfortable from the get go. She is real, understanding, and friendly. We felt like we could truly make the ceremony our own unique experience, and we were blown away with how it all came together. Erika was professional, efficient, and flexible from start to finish!

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!

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.

We can’t thank you enough for marrying us! You helped to make our special day so perfect and we’re so grateful to be married by you.

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

Thank you again for being such an important part of our wedding day!

We had a great experience with Young Hip and Married. Planning a wedding is so stressful and for us, and I’m sure a lot of other couples, the ceremony takes a bit of a backseat compared to the reception. With Young Hip and Married I didn’t have to worry about the ceremony at all. Our officiant, Erika, began preparing far in advance so there wasn’t any last minute stress. Even though we never met in person, great care was taken to really get to know us and what we wanted. The ceremony was personal and beautiful and flowed exactly how we wanted without us having to put in sweat and blood get it there. What more can you ask for! If only preparing the reception had been that easy…

We had such a wonderful experience with Erika and YH&M. They made the process very smooth and were definitely the easiest part of the wedding to coordinate. Once we were connected with Erika, it was such a relief knowing the ceremony was in her capable hands and we had one less thing on the wedding planning list. The personalized ceremony she put together was both touching and heartfelt while incorporating humour. We’ve had so many people say it was their favorite ceremony ever and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend YH&M!

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!

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!

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!

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.

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!

by Candice M Photography

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.

We had Erika Enns and she was AMAZING!!! She made our ceremony perfect, her words were so beautiful, loved everything about it. Not only does she write the ceremony script but also makes sure all the small details are taken care of when going through the rehearsal. YHM may be more expensive than other officiants or marriage commissioners but it’s worth every penny in my opinion.

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.

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!

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!

We had Erika as our officiant for our wedding in Sep 2022. It was a pleasure to work with Erika and her friendly personality and willingness to help us in any way possible made our wedding ceremony planning process easy and stress-free. Erika and the YH&M team were very responsive and very efficient. Erika did a wonderful job and the ceremony was just as relaxed and light-hearted as we had hoped for! We are so grateful and appreciative for the wonderful ceremony that Erika officiated for us. Thank you Erika for helping us create a beautiful and memorable ceremony!

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!

by Olive & Bean Photography

We booked the Intimate Elopement package with Young Hip & Married and were assigned to a officiant named Erika. She was absolutely amazing! We are so grateful to have had her on our special day. She truly made those short and sweet minutes the most beautiful 15 minutes of our lives. Thank you so much, Young Hip & Married and Erika!

We can’t thank you enough for making our day so special. You are a Rock Star! Absolutely everyone commented about how beautiful the ceremony was (and we totally lucked out with the weather).

Thank you for coming to check on me also! I had everything planned to the minute but my dress ended up being more complicated than I gave it credit for. After you came back I went into high gear, had a few laughs and away we went. It was a perfect day and just what we wanted. Thank you for everything and a lovely ceremony!

by Melina Alexandra Photography

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.

by Jamie Delaine Photo

Very professional and knowledgeable. They guided us through this event and we’d be happy to recommend them to anyone.

This company is absolutely amazing! Their quick communication makes booking them super easy. We were matched with Erika and upon meeting her we instantly connected! Her attention to detail shone through in her writing and she tailored our ceremony to fit us exactly! She is an amazing person who cares a lot about her couples. She guided us through the steps of the ceremony and took our nerves away. She was the first and only officiant we met and we could not be happier that she was the one to marry us! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company! You won’t be disappointed!

by Tara Lilly Photography

We would highly recommend Young Hip & Married to anyone who is looking to elope in BC! Booking was a breeze, the team promptly responded to any questions we had and they were a delight to deal with. We are over the moon with the photos we have received so far, and we received our filed marriage certificate in a few weeks. Due to the weather, we had to change the location we were hoping to get married at multiple times on the day. Both Erica (photographer) and Erika (officiant) dealt with our last minute panic with a smile and showed nothing but professionalism. If you are looking to elope in BC, there isn’t any better option then YH&M… it is as simple as that 🙂

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!

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!

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.

by Amriks Photography

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.

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!

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.

Our experience working with YHM was fantastic, really uncomplicated and straightforward administratively. Erika Enns was our officiant and I would highly recommend her – she has a very natural and calming presence and excellent delivery. Thank you for making our day so special!

Young Hip and Married was so easy to work with as we planned our elopement only a month and a half out from the event! The staff were all friendly and easy to communicate with. Our officiant Erika wrote a BEAUTIFUL ceremony for us that included our sons, and at the last minute when she was unable to make it due to a family emergency, Jane stepped in immediately and saved the day! She read Erika’s ceremony and helped it all feel incredibly sweet and personal (yes we all cried). Thanks to all of you for making our day that much more special!
