ONLINE WEDDING
We looked at other Virtual Wedding services, and being new to this idea, who do you trust? One organization charged as much as $1300.00, we did not know the good from the bad. On the utahcounty.gov website, under designated officiants, we found Sharon Vollett and her website https://petalsandpromises.wedding. Of course, we were unsure if this was just a giant scam. So we researched and found that Sharon’s website and information was found on other websites that recognize individual officiants, so we figured there was a good chance she was legit.

From the first contact after we filled out her online marriage form and paid her fee, I can honestly say that she stayed in touch with us thru the whole process, calmed the nerves of two seperate people on two separate continents and overall was kind and compassionate thru the whole process.

On the day of, we had technical issues at the start of our ceremony. And even though we had online problems, Sharon worked with us to make this event a special and memorable part of our lives. I am now married to a woman I adore, and could not recommend an online wedding service any higher than I recommend Sharon Vollett and Petals and Promises.Her service fee is amazing and her assistance was second to none.

Thanks Sharon!!

I want to highly recommend Sharon for your virtual ceremony. Sharon has a caring heart and it shows in how she works to make sure your ceremony is memorable. When Sharon married Eve and I she was so patient because of course my bride was fashionably late.  However, we had a wonderful ceremony and Sharon made everyone feel so welcome.  The union of a marriage in 2021 is so different with technology.  When the bride and groom sit on two different continents and time zones are 14 hours difference it is so wonderful to find someone like Sharon who was willing to be flexible. Reach out to her today with your marriage needs.

Historical! “Sharon is such a kind and sensitive soul. I feel so honored to have had her officiate our Wedding Ceremony! She is professional, responds efficiently and you can tell she understands the Power of Love. I had a few hiccups during the date for our wedding. Her contact was reassuring and affirmative for me. She is patient…as is Love. Sharon! Thank you so much for being a part of this sacred experience with David and I. I will always and forever cherish our Wedding Day. It was a Historical Day and Sacred. Im so happy that you were a part of it all. You knew exactly….what the energy all around us was. Thank you. *Hug*

Small, intimate and personal. This is exactly what we wanted. Reverend Sharon walked us through the process to get exactly what we were looking for. There were 10 of us including Sharon at our new home. It was short notice, giving her maybe 2 weeks to come up with a wonderful day we will always remember! We thank you and highly recommend you to couples looking for a memorable service. Belinda and Bill

My husband and I could not have been happier with our experience with Sharon. EVERYTHING about our experience with her was great. We loved the way she had us pick out what we wanted in our ceremony. It was so efficient and made us both feel like we played a major role in what was said. I cannot tell you how many compliments we had on the ceremony compared to typical ceremonies seen. She is so sweet and made me feel at such ease. We highly recommend her.

I am so glad that we decided to go with Sharon! She is wonderful, so prompt to reply, very flexible. She definitely wants to make sure she is the right fit for you and the vision you want for your wedding. Her voice is so soft, it sounds just like an angel! I couldn’t be happier with her officiating our wedding. She also had very good ideas to make the moment more special.

We could not be more pleased with our whole experience with Sharon. With her charm and gentle style, Sharon has the natural ability to put people in her presence at ease. Her calming influence on the big day helped me tremendously. I underestimated the significance of an officiant’s role until after my experience with Sharon. Countless guests approached us, immediately following the ceremony, on how beautiful the ceremony was and specifically, how amazing Sharon was! She was instrumental in creating the ceremony experience we were hoping for. She clearly captured our guests’ hearts, too! Sharon, thank you so much for everything!!

We worked with Sharon for our wedding in June 2018, and it was a phenomenal experience. We were planning a Utah wedding long distance (from New Zealand!), and right from the start Sharon made the process easy, enjoyable and insightful. We wanted a wedding which reflected our spiritual values while being non-denominational, shared our unique story, expressed the depth of what our marriage and our vows meant to us, and involved our guests personally. We felt a heart connection with Sharon from our first call on Facetime, and she took the time to understand our vision for the ceremony. She sent us a thoughtful questionnaire to help with shaping the ceremony, and working through it as a couple was a powerful experience. We collaborated with Sharon in writing the script, and she was very accommodating to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. When we finally met in person a couple of days before the event, we knew we were in the right hands. The ceremony even exceeded our expectations. We staged a “ring warming” which worked smoothly and was very special. Sharon spoke beautifully, and our exchange of vows was a profound, moving and sacred experience. She concluded the ceremony with a short poem which she had written for us and which made me cry the first time I read it. Throughout the process, Sharon was a consummate professional working from the heart. We would give her our highest possible recommendation.

Sharon Vollett is INCREDIBLE! I knew she was the right fit after the very first meeting! She spent two hours getting to know my husband and I asking many questions about our love story to help customize a wedding ceremony perfect for us! Sharon was so great about being willing to meet as many times as needed to fine tune all the details, and helped me decide how to incorporate our lost loved ones as well as gave many other great suggestions! She is experienced and worked so well with all the other vendors. She really does a great job of helping the whole ceremony come together! She is flexible, true to her word, and really goes above and beyond to listen to the needs of the bride and groom to deliver exactly what they envision. Sharon is a complete joy to work with, and has a soft, romantic way of leading ceremonies into utter beauty. She made my day so special and is more than just an officiant now, she is a cherished friend. It was by fate that my husband and I got together, and I truly believe it was meant to be that Sharon help lead us into our future!

Thank you so very much. I am so fortunate to be privileged to marry amazing couple’s and many become cherished friends, as are you. This wedding was so completely epic, a reflection of the two of you, 700 hundred of your closest friends and family. I am so honored to have been part of your adventure of becoming husband and wife. Thank you and have the merriest of holidays, I know you will!! Rev. Sharon Vollett, Petals and Promises.

My husband and I are very grateful to have been able to work with Sharon on our wedding day. She was excellent to work with and made our ceremony absolutely memorable. She is attentive and very professional. She has countless suggestions to create the type of ceremony that you are looking for. She took our suggestions and highlighted the details that were most important to us. Her demeanor had such a calming effect on my husband and I and we did not worry about the details of the ceremony in the months, weeks and days leading up to the big day. She had beautiful ideas to incorporate our son into our ceremony and was very conscientious that his participation was highly important to us. She helped us make our wedding ceremony focused on family and love. There was not a dry eye in the audience by the time we said “I Do”. We highly recommend Sharon and were very fortunate to have her officiate our wedding.

I absolutely loved Rev. Sharon Vollett! We knew she was the one when I found her on one wedding site, and my husband had found her on another. We basically showed her site to each other at the same time and knew she had to be the one! She had a ton of ceremony styles to choose from, and she even let me combine two ceremonies! We wanted a nondenominational wedding, and I was extremely worried because I had been to a few nondenominational weddings that were just plain boring. This one was beautiful. She also has been doing this for a long time, so she had great ideas and helped make our wedding absolutely perfect! She suggested that my husband walk down the aisle with both our mothers, and everyone thought that was adorable. A wedding is such a stressful event to plan, but when you speak with Sharon, all of your worries just disappear. She is a very calm, professional, and positive person, and she has such a great spirit about her! I would recommend her to everyone! Thank you so much Sharon!

My husband and I were going to get married at the courthouse but we had extra people coming into town and needed to have a ceremony. I asked the venue if they had any suggestion on officiants and they sent me to petals and promises. The wedding was in two weeks and we had no one to marry us, I met up with Rev. Sharon and we put together the vows it was simple and easy and it only took 20 minutes. The ceremony was beautiful and the Rev. Sharon did such a great job! She was patient with me as I giggled my way through the vows and made me feel like it was OK to have a moment. Lots of laughs through the vows it got good when the best man dropped my ring and I completely lost it and fell on the floor laughing. My wedding was memorable and it is the highlight of our conversations during the holidays! Thank you Rev. Sharon for making our day special!

PETALS AND PROMISES responded with the following comments:
Thank you so much Stephanie. Your wedding was so sweet and fun. All of the people who love you both were there. The giggles, the ring falling and rolling across the floor, we all lost it and the laughter was part of the charm of your beautiful wedding. I am so happy you have this precious memory to fill your hearts with joy and laughter. Thank you again, and love and happiness to you both. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

 

Sharon was an absolute pleasure to work with. I could tell that we made the right choice after our first meeting with her. She really made Jackie and I feel at ease while discussing our different options for the ceremony. On our Wedding day, Sharon was a rockstar! She eased everyone’s nervousness, by discussing the ceremony and giving everyone their jobs. Our wedding was magical and she was the major reason why! After the ceremony I got many compliments, but most of those compliments were about how wonderful Sharon was, and I agree! I think Sharon is the best!! I highly recommend you use her! You will not be disappointed.

We were looking for an officiant, and were completely overwhelmed. It was critical that whoever performed the ceremony could help us express our love to our friends and family. We called Sharon and were surprised with the speed of her response. We were able to meet with her within a week. We walked into the meeting with little idea of what we wanted the ceremony to look like. She provided us with multiple samples which helped us feel at ease with her competence and experience. She had numerous wonderful scripts, and we found that we couldn’t choose between 2 or 3, her solution was to create our own ceremony by combining and rearranging. She also allowed us to include a poem that has a certain significance to us. We were already legally married, and just wanted to have a ceremony in front of friends and family as our legal ceremony was rushed. It was important to us to have a non-religious ceremony, and we wanted to do a hand-fasting rather than a ring exchange. Sharon worked with us, exchanging numerous emails and phone calls until our ceremony was exactly how we wanted it. She exhibited patience and professionalism, and seemed to genuinely care about the quality of our ceremony. In areas where we were unsure, she offered valuable opinions that showed her expertise and made us feel that we truly received a unique ceremony. On our wedding day, she showed up early and warmly greeted us. She was confident and calm. Her peaceful demeanor set the tone for the whole ceremony. She spoke clearly and warmly, at a perfect volume and pace. Because of her, all of our friends and family were able to feel the deep and profound love we have found, there was not a dry eye in the audience. Even Sharon teared up, which further shows her sensitive and compassionate energy. Sharon was perfect for us, she was everything we wanted. Our ceremony was nearly 3 years ago, and still our friends and family talk about our perfect hand-fasting. Thank you Sharon!

Jess, Braden, Kassidee, and myself would like to thank you for making our wedding ceremony so memorable. The kids are still talking about their involvement in the ceremony. That was so important to Jess and I to have the kids be apart of the ceremony also. Thank you so much for your patience, thoughts and ideas for the perfect beginning to our life long journey.
Sincerely,
— Jess and Stephanie

 

Our wedding was very short notice, and after posting on a website she was on, Sharon got back to me the very next day. In fact, she was the only one to reply back to us. We came and visited her to talk about the wedding arrangements and she was very warm and understanding about our needs. She has lots of very sweet wedding vows and different little ceremonies that you can do, we chose the Rose Ceremony which was very sweet and special. She was very helpful to us and had many connections that she used to make our wedding very special, even with only 1 week of preparation! Sharon is a very nice and loving woman and we loved having her perform our wedding ceremony.
— Kyle and Megan

 

Sharon
WOW: no words could describe what the rose ceremony meant to us, or the appreciation we feel towards you for including that. The universe truly guided us to you for a reason. I loved it! You managed to capture the spirit of our family by only meeting/talking with us a few times! Our ceremony was beyond our greatest expectations because of the heartfelt time and energy you put into it, you are truly gifted at what you do! Thank you so very much Sharon!!

Our justice of the peace got in a car accident an hour before our ceremony (she’s okay thankfully!), but we had to scramble to find someone within 15 minutes. I called Sharron and within 2 minutes she called me back and was nice enough to come to Big Cottonwood Canyon from Salt Lake City to marry us! She is super sweet, very responsive and a life saver. I recommend her over and over again!

 

Todd said…
Sharon was so amazing. In a last minute pickle I Google’s officiates and her picture popped up and I knew that is who I wanted. She met with me and my two children (my fiance was working) and we selected what we would like. She personalized it and included our children in the ceremony (which meant a lot to us). It was so beautifully worded and just so perfect. Our family even kept commenting what a beautify job Sharon had done. I even forwarded it to family who could not attend and they loved it. The ceremony made me teary eyed more than once, she really channeled who we were. I will forever keep in touch with her and keep Sharon updated and hopefully she will be willing to do our kids weddings in many many years.

 

Jennifer said…
Sharon was wonderful! I have a very busy schedule and planning a wedding on top of it, I was at my max! She was very flexible with my schedule and made everything work. When I was finally able to meet with her and she listened to what was important to me, she pointed out what she thought would be perfect for us and she nailed it! After reading the first page I was in tears. Every action and word she said was so professional and down to earth. I would not have changed a thing. She made our day absolutely perfect and remember able! Thank you Sharon!

 

Danielle said…
Thank you Sharon Vollett for doing an amazing job on our wedding day! The vows were perfect and made everyone laugh. Everyone wanted a copy of them. You were very kind and thoughtful through the whole process. Thank you so much! I’ll be calling you when it comes time to renew our vows. Thank you again.
— Mr. And Mrs. Farley

 

Ashley said…
Sharon officiated our wedding and was wonderful. She was easy to work with and gave our vows her attention and care. She was flexible and made sure our vows matched our relationship and personalities. Everyone commented on how beautiful the ceremony was, and that is thanks to Sharon. Thank you for the great service you provide, Sharon!

 

Stacie said…
Rev. Sharon Vollett truly brought peace and magic to our wedding. Her words and her calming presence beautifully connected not only my husband and I to each other, but to our invited family and friends. I was so happy that the family members who had expressed disapproval, based on religious views of a woman performing the ceremony, ALL approached me afterwards to express how their hearts were so opened and how they uncharacteristically cried thru the ceremony. She influenced my peace of mind and heart from the moment we met till the day of the wedding so profoundly. I will always be thankful to her for using her gifts to make my wedding day so sweet. Thank you Sharon!
— Sincerely, Stacie Tahy

PETALS AND PROMISES responded with the following comments:
Thank you so much Stacie. It is always such a gift to meet sweet, loving people and together create a ceremony that will remain in your hearts for a lifetime. Your words expressing your experience, and your family’s experience of your beautiful celebration of marriage is my joy. Love and happiness, Sharon

We were planning our wedding in Park City from Toronto Ontario, and after a few conversations and emails Sharon was able to get to know my husband and I very well even though we never met her in person before the ceremony. We filled out her questionnaires and you could tell she put a great deal of time and thought into writing our ceremony. She allowed us to read the vows beforehand so we could make any changes, and met with us both right before the ceremony to make sure everything was going well. My mom and godmother both mentioned to me how much they enjoyed the ceremony and that Sharon stayed afterwards to speak with the guests, which my family really appreciated. You can tell Sharon truly cares about writing the perfect ceremony for her couples, and we got exactly what we wanted.

This review is long overdue. Sharon was a treat to work with from our initial contact. She is extremely patient and attentive. We met with Sharon a month prior to the ceremony. She spent time to get to know us and listened to what WE both wanted. It was very important to us that since we are blending our family together our 5 children played a special role in the ceremony. We wanted our ceremony to be extremely intimate. During our meeting, my husband and I read through all of her ceremonies and we were able to put together our own unique ceremony. I loved that she sent us the final ceremony for our review a week prior. Some minor changes needed to be made which she fixed ASAP. Now the big day finally arrived, and naturally things don’t go according to plan so we were 1.5 hrs late and yet she was still patient, smiling and willing to accommodate us. Everyone loved the tying the knot portion of the ceremony. In our opinion the ceremony is the vital part of a marriage and we appreciate Sharon for making it a moment that we will cherish forever. You are truly a Godsend!!!!

Sharon was so wonderful to my husband and I! She is very personable, and accommodating. She helped make our ceremony just the way we wanted it! I would recommend her to anyone getting married!

 

Ashley said…
There are a very few occasions in your life that are as important as your wedding day, it is important to have an officiant that you can connect with and give your trust to. Sharon did just that for us; she has a way of capturing you as a couple and putting your relationship into words. I loved how she included our daughter into our ceremony to make our wedding day just as special for our daughter. I can not express how grateful we were to have shared our day with Sharon. I would highly recommend Sharon to anyone who is looking for an officiant for their special day. You will receive more than you would ever expect from an officiant.

Sharon is ideal for your wedding! We were referred to Sharon by the Homestead Resort in Midway, Utah on Valentine’s Day. Communication was superior and we met in person three days before the wedding. The wedding ceremony was tapered to our individual style and personalities. The ceremony at Homestead Resort was elegant, romantic and intimate. We did not require a rehearsal for a second wedding. We highly recommend Sharon for your wedding. Make only one communication and call Sharon.

Given the short notice of our wedding, Rev Sharon Vollett made the most wonderful day of our lives come to life. She worked with us in making our day one that we will never forget. With just even the simplest of ideas she made it into a day I could never have even imagined with the beauty of the area she helped us choose. For anyone wanting to get married I would highly recommend her as she not only was personable, but very professional. She will make your special day one you always will cherish!!!

 

Gayle said…
Sharon conducted our ceremony so beautifully, she really made us feel like it was our very special day. All of our guests were saying that they felt that she made our wedding extra special for all of them. Sharon made everyone feel welcome into our home, where the ceremony was held. I have told my friends about her and as I understand, she married my friends Jim and Mike.

 

Katelyn said…
Sharon Vollett was so sweet and wonderful to work with. I’m atheist and was unsure I would find someone that not only would understand, but would cater to my needs. It only took one meeting with Sharon to come up with something my husband and I were completely happy with. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. I’m so glad Sharon was a part of my wedding, I feel very lucky. I would recommend Sharon to anyone and everyone. Just wonderful!

 

Stacey said…
My husband and I had a destination wedding at Arches National Park in Moab, UT. Sharon was wonderful in helping us develop the perfect ceremony. We were hoping to have a small, intimate and meaningful ceremony that included both our family and guests…and that’s just what Sharon delivered. She helped to make our wedding day perfect. We are so grateful to have found Sharon.

 

Kara said…
Sharon was amazing! She was very responsive, sweet, and flexible. From the very beginning, Sharon was by our sides helping us out with any questions we had. She understands that planning for a wedding is a very stressful time and she helped us with so much. Sharon was a great speaker and did such a wonderful job. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better!

PETALS AND PROMISES responded with the following comments:
Kara and Chad thank you, your wedding was so beautiful and the two of you so amazing. I enjoyed your wedding, your wonderful families and the venue was perfect. Again thank you so much for the privilege of marrying you. Love and happiness, Sharon

 

Jenny said…
I am so grateful we were able to have Sharon officiate our wedding, she is a tough one to schedule in because so many people refer her and love her style. We made it clear we wanted a non denominational ceremony without any religion and she was open to whatever made us happy. Sharon made us feel so comfortable during what can be a nerve racking time! Meeting with her beforehand to discuss what we wanted and allowing us to put together the perfect ceremony catered to our needs made the biggest difference. We had a very intimate ceremony outdoors in the mountains and it was perfect for us as were our vows. Sharon came recommended to me from a wedding photographer and I highly recommend her. Thank you Sharon for being a part of our special day.

If you are reading this review, then you have already found Sharon online. She is without a doubt the best decision i made when planning our wedding. If you Choose her as your officiant, I promise you will not be sorry. Sharon was kind, professional, and really helpful when quick decisons needed to be made. With one meeting she listened intently and took down some notes, and shortly before the wedding found the perfect ceremony to fit our needs. At the ceremony I had forgotten a table for our sand ceremony, we were in a beautiful garden and not a table in sight. Without hesitation Sharon kicked it into gear and manage to fashion a table out of a cardboard box and two chairs and placed a near by cloth over the top and vualla we had a table. I had no idea this was even a problem, I was hidden behind some bushes waiting to make my entrance. Sharon took care of it so I didn’t have to stress about it. Once the ceremony began i felt as if I were in a dream and it was just he and I staring into each others eyes. As i’m writing this I still get chills of excitement remembering how beautiful and smooth the ceremony flowed. It was like silk in the wind. We could not have been more pleased. She did a phenomenal  job. many thanks to Sharon we loved her. Best and Warmest regards Kim and Lanny.
