Testimonials

Rev. Corinne Cortes was exceptional! She exceeded all our expectations of an officiant and made our very special wedding ceremony flow and express our love so beautifully! We were uniting in marriage but also joining my Grandsons as my new husband’s Grandsons as well and Rev. Corinne recommended the blending sands ceremony to us, which we had no idea about, and it turned out so beautiful and the kids were so happy to be involved!!! I was so busy, and Rev. Corinne reminded me of things during the week and responded immediately whenever we had a question! We also needed Spanish translation for some of our family members and she was phenomenal!! Rev. Corinne brought us together in such a special ceremony with beautiful readings and amazing loving energy! We highly recommend Rev. Corinne!!

My husband and I were married by Corinne 5 years ago and she MADE our day (twice). It felt like family was marrying us. She really got to know us and our relationship. She had our guest laughing and crying throughout the entire ceremony. We also held a private intimate wedding which was beautiful and perfect. I highly recommend Corinne for a wedding officiant.

Corinne was the officiant at our wedding. We needed someone bilingual for our wedding and we found Corinne. She gave so much of herself to make our wedding ceremony special. We had many meetings before the big day. Corinne wanted our day to be perfect and was in constant contact with us to ensure everything would go smoothly. I cannot say enough about her as a person and of course the service she provides is top notch. I highly recommend her for your wedding.

We could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding. From the very beginning, you were kind, professional, and truly invested in making our ceremony meaningful and personal. Yesterday was everything we hoped for and more, and so much of that is thanks to you. You made us feel comfortable, calm, and genuinely present in the moment. Our ceremony was beautiful, heartfelt, and perfectly us, and we received so many compliments from our family and friends. Thank you for being such an important part of our special day. We will forever be grateful.

Thank you 🙏
Love Lina and Alejandro

Corinne was the officiant at my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding on August 10, 2024. The ceremony was more than I could have ever asked for. Her words were beautiful and brought me to tears. I had many people tell me what a beautiful ceremony it was. She also took the time to recommend places for pictures and even had a backup plan in case of rain. I am truly grateful for all that she did for our family!

My wife and I have been married for 24 years. Every year we renew our wedding vows this year I wanted to do something different so I reached out to Corinne. After only a few minutes on the phone, I knew that she was the person I needed to make the next renewal different from all the rest. Her interest in what I had to say along with her enthusiasm in all her responses sold me on the size of her heart. The time she spent finding a reading that was appropriate for my wife and I made the experience overwhelming. If you were looking for someone to marry you for the first time or any other time, look no further.

Thank you Corinne!

I had the distinct pleasure of attending a class led by Corinne. The class was about Grief and Loss. Just WOW. I knew of my grief over my mother’s passing; and that of others that have passed; but never did I ever think about all the loss I’ve experienced, in all ways, in my life. Corinne performed a ritual ceremony with us, where I traced back losses through my life timeline. Seeing and understanding what was hidden within me; and understanding there is a way to open and release all of that – just wow. Corinne is beyond gifted. My time with her has changed me and I am forever grateful to have her as a teacher. My wish is that whoever is reading this reaches out to Corinne so that you too may experience what I am having such difficulty putting into words… other than WOW.

As part of my training to become an Interfaith Minister through the New Light Sanctuary, I had the privilege of attending a full-day session led by Corinne of CLC Connections. Her presentation was nothing short of transformative.

Corinne brought a profound depth of knowledge, grounded in real experience and a clear passion for the work she does. Her ability to hold space while guiding us through complex and meaningful material made the day both engaging and deeply impactful. She didn’t just share information—she invited us into reflection, connection, and embodied understanding.

What stood out most was her presence. Corinne teaches with clarity, warmth, and a steady confidence that fosters trust and encourages open dialogue. The tools and insights she shared will stay with me as I continue to grow in service and step fully into my role as an Interfaith Minister.

I’m grateful for the wisdom she offered and highly recommend CLC Connections to anyone seeking thoughtful, soul-centered leadership and training.

The grief workshop I experienced today was thoughtfully created by Corinne. She provided an empathetic overview and also shared the importance of being fully present for anyone experiencing grief. She facilitated interactive activities that were meaningful experiences for me. Corinne is a compassionate listener and has a deep understanding of the emotional process of grieving. She created a safe and supportive space to allow me to authentically express myself and to identify where my healing is still needed. I am grateful that I am connected to Corinne. I would recommend her with all my heart.

~ Laurie Mitchell

I highly recommend Corinne for her passion, wisdom and guidance for anyone navigating happy or challenging changes. Corinne was a guest speaker/educator for the interfaith ministry course I participate in. It was a really powerful session. I saw Corinne “walking the walk and talking the talk” when it comes to grief. She allowed us to express without judgment. She was calm, confident and poised. My favorite part of today was hearing how she made relationships in a recent funeral service, how she outlined the service but also remained open and flexible to whatever came and getting an insider look at what being a minister looks like in real time.
