Meet the Officiants

 Debra Roth 

Debra was the CAO/Clerk for the Municipality of Brockton and has been performing marriages since 2010. Since her retirement as of December 2017, Deb will continue to perform marriages on her personal time. She feels honoured to be able to participate in such a special and meaningful occasion. A marriage is unique to each and every couple and the small things count. Whether it is a sand or candle ceremony, or the tying of the knot, each detail is reviewed to ensure that the couple are relaxed and happy on their wedding day. Debra has a calm and comforting demeanour and is very relaxed whether officiating in a large celebration or a small intimate ceremony. Whether your chosen venue is the beach, barn, cornfield, garden or the council chambers, Debra will work with you to make your wedding truly unique and special.

Contact Deb at 519-377-5345 to book your wedding with her.

 Margaret (Mike) Taylor 

Mike enjoys working with each couple to plan their perfect wedding ceremony, a wedding that will be both meaningful and memorable. She is sensitive to the needs of her clients in a friendly and professional manner and her experience with the CNIB, recording talking books for the blind, teaching in various venues, and volunteer positions requiring both leadership and compassion, make her an ideal choice as your officiant. She is easy going and approachable, willing to work with you to create the ceremony of your dreams.
