Meet Your Officiant
Nicole Stirling
About Me
Having shared over 40 years of marriage with my husband, I know that a lasting partnership is built on love, connection and the many experiences two people share along the way. Together, we have raised four wonderful children, three sons and a daughter, and have been blessed with grandchildren who bring even more joy to our lives.
Over the years, my own journey has taken me to four different countries and two Canadian provinces. I speak English, French and Spanish, and I value the many ways people connect, express love and build a life together.
Today, my husband and I live on a hobby farm, surrounded by family, animals and nature. Our experiences have shaped my appreciation for meaningful connections and the unique journey every couple shares. It is a privilege to help couples celebrate their love and begin their married life with a ceremony that reflects their story and the commitment they are making to one another.
My Professional Side
I have been a certified wedding officiant for five years and am an Ordained Minister. I approach each ceremony with care and a genuine desire to create a meaningful, personal experience that reflects the people and love being celebrated.
I also have a passion for wellness. For the past six years, I have been a certified yoga teacher, and I have practised Reiki and energy healing for over 20 years. My journey in wellness began in my 20s and 30s, when I taught fitness classes. These experiences have deepened my passion for wellbeing, and supporting others on their personal journeys.
Teaching has also been an important part of my life. I spent many years teaching French to primary school students at a Montessori school, an experience that strengthened my appreciation for learning, patience and individual connection.
Across these different paths, my greatest fulfilment has come from helping others and making a positive difference in their lives.
Ceremony Philosophy
My philosophy is simple: I believe the ceremonies should be a real, authentic celebration of your love, not something that’s simply tolerated or rushed through. It should be a reflection of who you are as a couple—your passions, your style, and the unique bond you share—not about meeting anyone else’s expectations.
The ceremony should honour your love and your relationship as best friends, as that is the foundation of your marriage. It’s about celebrating the connection you’ve built and the future you're creating together.
I also believe that a wedding ceremony can be as unique as you are. The tone, style, and feel of the ceremony can be as creative and personal as you want it to be. From traditional to modern, spiritual, almost anything goes when it comes to designing a ceremony that feels right for you. The possibilities are endless, and I’m here to help you bring your vision to life!
My Approach
My goal is to create and deliver a wedding ceremony that is intimate, personal, and deeply meaningful for each couple. In today's world, with so many options available in wedding planning, I want to empower you to make the choices that will shape your ceremony. By offering a wide variety of ceremony elements. I give couples the freedom to select what resonates most with them. This allows for the highest level of comfort and ensures the ceremony reflects your unique love story, making it both personal and intimate.
I am committed to delivering a ceremony with great passion. Passion is what elevates a ceremony from ordinary to extraordinary. It’s reflected in the way I communicate, in my dedication to excellence, and in my belief in the power and value of strong, lasting relationships. I give my absolute best to couples who are equally passionate about creating a ceremony that is full of love and connection.
Above all, I strive to deliver a ceremony with the utmost professionalism. The ceremony is the heart of your wedding day, and you can rest assured that you are in capable hands. I believe in professionalism at every level, from my appearance and conduct to my communication and presentation. I also ensure a seamless collaboration with other wedding service providers to make your ceremony as smooth and beautiful as possible.
