    Very satisfied!

    Jayne was very professional and was able to tell our love story perfectly, and went along with our humor! We also included our dog in our ceremony and Jayne fully embraced that and came up with a bunch of ways we could include him. Definitely recommend!

    Justine, it was such a pleasure to Tell Your Love Story! You and Tyler have an amazing bond together and it was an honour to be asked to perform your ceremony. Please keep in touch.

    Truly Memorable Ceremony!!

    Jayne was lovely to work with. She took the time to really learn about us as a couple and used that information to craft a truly memorable ceremony. Several of our guests commented on what a touching ceremony and how they felt included.

    Jayne is amazing

    Jayne is an incredibly helpful, insightful, and creative throughout the wedding process. She provided a very calming presence and knew exactly what to do to help make sure the wedding went smoothly. She also had wonderful ideas to help make the ceremony more impactful for my wife and I, as well as more memorable for the guests.

    Jane was the perfect and only Officiate that could do our wedding justice!

    Jayne was incredible and on-point from the first phone call! She went above-and-beyond to accommodate us, despite already having a very busy schedule. Her suggestions were matched perfectly with the essence of our wedding, she understood what was important and personal to each of us, and delivered in spectacular fashion. We received compliments from everyone involved in is day regarding her enthusiasm and dedication to our ceremony.
    Leading up to our ceremony, we always felt that Jayne treated us with priority, was never hard to reach, and always responded with great detail and attentiveness. She was also very sure of things at all times, and nothing every felt, "wishy-washy", or left to chance. Extremely professional, warm and caring, and an all-around top-notch experience!

    I absolutely insist people hire Jayne for their big day.

    Our Own Celebration's reply:

    Ah, Kyle. It was my kind of ceremony. You are such a spiritual couple and putting together some extras like your Handwashing, Smudge and Stone Ceremony pieces were right up my ally. I so enjoyed your ceremony and witnessing the Love between you two. Thank you for your kind words and for inviting me to be part of your special day.

    Exceptional!

    Our experience with Jayne Gibson was so wonderful. She is so open to your own individual needs and wants, so easy to talk to, and she listens to you. I cannot say enough about this lovely woman. She made our ceremony very special.

    Our Own Celebration's reply:

    Hi!! Thank you so much for your kind words. Working with you and your husband was just such a pleasure. Your wedding was beautiful, and everyone made me feel so comfortable. It was my pleasure to pronounce you Husband and Wife. I wish you many blessings and many happy years in each other's arms.

    Saranya and furkhan

    I was planning a wedding within a month and Jayne was the one who was with me from the start till the end. She asked all the right questions and found out exactly what me and my now hubby would like. She gave the whole wedding structure and made it so beautiful. She became an instant friend and was with me every step of the way. Her energy, affection and excitement is unparalleled. She is truly amazing at making people feel cherished. We had a beautiful ceremony made surreal with her heart warming and thoughtful words. We were truly lucky to have found her and are so happy she was the one to unite us. Keep on being Marvellous Jayne

    Our Own Celebration's reply:

    Saranya, the journey to your wedding day was magical. Your enthusiasm and happiness were infectious. Your wedding day was beautiful from start to finish. Full of Love and Joy - just like we talked about. I wish you both many happy years together and every blessing.

    One of a kind

    We originally met with Jayne in early 2019 to have her marry us in 2020. However, the pandemic hit and we had to postpone our wedding to 2021. When we realized we couldn't have the wedding of our dreams in 2021, we postponed again to 2022. It was a difficult decision to do so, but Jayne was flexible, understanding, and was there with us each step of the way. She genuinely cares about us and wants what's best for us. She created a one-of-a-kind ceremony for us. All of our guests really enjoyed the love story she wrote. It was so beautifully written, and funny as well! There was never a boring moment at our ceremony!!

    Our Own Celebration's reply:

    Ada, to have the privilege of pronouncing you Husband and Wife brought tears to my eyes. Telling your Love Story was such a pleasure. Your ceremony was beautiful and I am so flattered with all the positive comments from your guests. I wish you nothing but a true Happily Ever After. Please keep in touch. I miss you already. xoxo

    The most memorable part of our wedding!

    Wow, where do I begin with this review? I would honestly rather write a letter of appreciation to Jayne for all that she did for us over the years after continuous postponement of our wedding due to COVID-19 and how beautiful of a ceremony she prepared for us.

    Before we got married my fiancé and I knew that we wanted to do a traditional Celtic Hand-Fasting ceremony. It appeared that finding an officiant who does this was a little challenging as it seems its an uncommon practice... but then we found Jayne here on WeddingWire! We decided to meet her after looking at her page/reviews and to see if she would be the right fit for us. Was she EVER! Her personality, energy and charisma is absolutely stunning and she is someone who you can truly talk to and be yourself around. We really appreciate how comfortable we were around her. We knew this was going to be special.

    Unfortunately, the pandemic hit before we could get married and we decided to postpone our wedding TWICE due to gathering restrictions. Jayne was so supportive and understanding with our choice to wait as she understood it was extremely important for us to have everyone there with us. She was also available at any time to help guide us and answer any questions or concerns we had. She was also kind enough to touch base with us every once in a while as we kept aiming for a new date. The entire process was very calm and exciting for us even though it took years of waiting and she ensured everything transitioned over seamlessly.

    When rehearsal time finally arrived Jayne ran the show and kept everyone organized and made sure they understood their role and how to do it. We even asked her to practice a few more times and she was more than happy to oblige. She wanted to make sure we were good to go. The day of the wedding was so exciting for us as she knew how long we waited for this moment. It made everything more personal for us because she had been part of our journey for so long after we kept postponing the date.

    Jayne was so thoughtful in helping us plan the entire ceremony. She gave us lots of options and ideas on how to go about what we envisioned. It was so custom and tailored to us that we received SO MANY compliments from our guests. It was a beautiful ceremony created just for us. In fact, I still receive comments from guests now and again!

    I am sad this process has come to a close for us but I will always hold a special place in my heart for Jayne and all that she helped us achieve on the most important day of our lives.

    Thank you Jayne from the bottom of our hearts! You are a beautiful soul and we cannot wait to see you again some day! Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors my friend!

    Our Own Celebration's reply:

    My dear Mr. and Mrs. Breen. Thank you so very much for your lovely words. The feeling is mutual. Your wedding day was indeed exciting. Your guests and family members couldn’t have been more excited for you, and they were especially welcoming to me. My heart sored and I was fighting back tears as I finally got to pronounce you Husband and Wife!! There was definitely magic in the air for the two of you. I so enjoyed getting to know you both and I hope you keep in touch because, after all of this time, I miss you already. I’m very proud of you both for making your dream day come true.

    Wedding service

    Jayne was the officiant for our wedding and we couldn’t be happier!! She was very helpful before our big day and the ceremony she performed for us was absolutely amazing! She listened to what we wanted and what was important to us. It was perfect ❤️

    Our Own Celebration's reply:

    Sharon, your small, intimate wedding was absolutely perfect. With your beloved family surrounding you, your Love and excitement shown through. Bringing your family together with the Pass-the-Cord ceremony connected everyone together beautifully. I don’t know which part stole the show more – your stunning Sand Unity container or your Ring Bearer, Squatch, but it was a lovely celebration of your Love. I wish you many beautiful moments and much happiness.

    Wonderful experience

    Jayne was such a delight. She has so much joy and was so professional. We are so blessed to have met her and have her do our ceremony.

    Our Own Celebration's reply:

    You know when you meet somebody for the first time and you just click? That was my experience meeting both of you. I also feel blessed to have had the opportunity to perform your Renewal of Vows. What a special ceremony that was. When you and your husband looked into each other's eyes, I knew right then and there, your union was meant to be. Your love is infectious. I wish you many years of a married bliss.
