| Testimonials Ceremonies: Every word Dawn spoke resonated and touched Brian and I. Dawn's ceremony set a tone of love that laid the foundation for the creation of the most special, magical day of our lives. Every person in attendance was moved, touched and inspired by Dawn's words. Our day was all the more meaningful and amazing because of Dawn Smith-Camacho! -Leslie and Brian Anderson I highly recommend Reverend Dawn Smith Camacho who helped me in planning a family life celebration service at which she also served as the officiant. After our initial face-to-face meeting, she kept in constant contact via email and phone calls. Her guidance and suggestions were invaluable. Her warmth and friendly demeanor in conducting the service helped to put everyone at ease and her words were truly inspirational. My memory of this day was made all the more special by Reverend Dawn’s delivery and kind attention. -Lynne During the initial preparation and organization for our wedding, we were quite aware that our ceremony would not be traditional. We wanted to incorporate both our religious (Buddhist and Catholic) and cultural (Mexican, Thai, and Guatemalan) backgrounds in all aspects of our wedding. The ONLY minister that came immediately to mind who would be able to understand our vision was Minister Dawn Smith-Camacho. We were so elated when she agreed to marry us. We informed her of all the elements to include in our wedding ceremony. She understood perfectly our ideas. Minister Smith-Camacho gave us excellent advice and provided samples of ceremonies for us to peruse. She listened attentively, provided feedback, and paid close attention to detail. The ceremony proceeded wonderfully and according to plan. Minister Smith-Camacho arrived punctually and with a bright smile that lasted throughout the entire ceremony. Her soothing voice and calm demeanor provided for a peaceful and joyful ceremony from beginning to end. She personalized the ceremony by recounting our stories of love for one another. Minister Smith-Camacho also correctly pronounced difficult Thai and Spanish names. There was not one dry eye amongst our guests. Immediately after our ceremony, we received positive comments on such a unique, peaceful, and glorious ceremony. The vast majority of our guests declared that this was one of the most beautiful ceremonies they had ever attended. We knew right away that our vision had been accomplished due to Minister Smith-Camacho’s professionalism, attention, and dedication. The ceremony created the right atmosphere that carried out throughout the rest of the night. Our wedding was a wonderful success due in large part to Minister Dawn Smith-Camacho. We are deeply grateful to Minister Smith-Camacho for helping us create fond memories of our wedding and love. -Nick and Rocio Jongsomjit __________________________________________________________ Professional Colleagues: Reverend Dawn Smith-Camacho is a blessing to all she touches, and brings a beautiful, loving presence to the ceremonies which she celebrates. A terrific listener, Dawn is compassionate, open, curious, empathic, generous, authentic, gentle, and extremely professional. She posseses a number of wonderfully complimentary gifts rarely found together in one person: she is creative yet organized; peaceful but with a strong sense of fairness and social justice; self-reflective but also a catalyst for change in the world. Dawn is a truly exceptional Reverend and person, and your ceremony will be all the more memorable because of her presence. -Rev. Paul Darwish Rev. Dawn Smith-Camacho is a luminous spirit who exudes incredible warmth and grace.. She has a wonderfully engaging presence in intimate settings as well as large audiences. She epitomizes professionalism with her creativity, dependability and meticulous attention to every detail. I guarantee it will only take you a brief moment to realize you have found the right person to craft the ceremony or event of your dreams! -Rev. Dawn Shedrick, Abundant Bliss Ceremonies Dawn brings a subtle balance of intelligence and compassion to all her work. This beautiful dynamic of head and heart infuses her words with a deep wisdom, wrapped in a gentle warmth. There is no preachy-ness in her work, just insight mixed equally with love. -Rev. Anna Leue __________________________________________________________ Workshops/Personal Consulting: I recently lost my position as Director of a non-profit when I attended Dawn and Deborah's workshop. At a time when I was tempted to feel dejected by the end of the workshop I felt inspired. I was eager to practice the tools given and I felt fortified to follow through on what I had learned practically as it was balanced with spiritual reflection throughout the workshop. Thank you for offering such a wonderful class at a difficult time. -Athena Carrillo, MFT __________________________________________________________ I contacted Dawn because I was feeling very frustrated with my career planning. I had just returned from living in Spain for four years, studying Flamenco dance. It had been a few months since my return and I felt like my career momentum had come to a standstill. I knew I needed to set some goals, but I was never very good at creating a list of goals and then manifesting them. I knew that Dawn was exceptionally skilled at this so I asked her for help. At our meeting, she taught me about "treasure-mapping" my goals for all of the different aspects of my life. The results were amazing. The same day I first wrote down a rough list of the things I wanted to put on my Treasure Map, things started to happen. People I needed to meet in my profession that I had no prior connection to, started making contact with me. I also became brave enough to create situations where I would meet the right people and I was able to make great impressions on them. I have gotten regular work dancing and I already have a few long-term projects on the horizon--some dancing and some not, but still related to my dancing. I´m no longer at a standstill. I feel like I´m starting to pick up speed and I'm having fun and all of this has come about after one simple meeting with Dawn. Thanks Dawn! -Mercedes
