WOW! I could go on about how amazing Janice is! She was extremely easy to contact and get a hold of, and made sure all plans were gone over and any kinks were ironed out before the big day. Like many couples, we downsized our wedding from about 100 people to a very small intimate wedding on our front porch with only our parents and siblings. My husband and I are very laid back and Janice made the ceremony exactly how we pictured it. She is HILARIOUS, made the crowd laugh, cry (in a good way) and have a wonderful time. Her and her husband stayed for dinner with us and my family got to know them both. Everyone raved how well she did, and how great both her and her husband are, and how awesome the ceremony went. It was so wonderful to share our special day with them, and she was a big part of making our big day so special. Not only is she great at her job, my husband and I fell in love with her cats and dogs too. 10/10 would definitely recommend. Thank you again Janice for everything! We truly appreciate it.

Janice is the best! Oct 3, 2020
Would 100% recommend Janice to anyone needing an officiant for their wedding. Janice is such a kind and fun person who makes the ceremony planning the least stressful part of planning your big day. We had a blast planning our ceremony exactly how we wanted it. Janice did a beautiful job performing our handfasting ceremony, while still adding in her wonderful sense of humour and all our Lord of the Rings references haha. We are still receiving compliments on how great our ceremony was thanks to Janice!!!

Best Officiant!!!
We would recommend Janice and her services to anyone looking to hire a professional officiant. We were supposed to have our wedding in August at a hotel but when the Covid-19 situation came about our venue closed temporarily for several months and so we had to change all our plans. Janice was so gracious to offer for us to use her own property for a mini civil ceremony. She let my mom decorate the arch on her property and made sure our experience was memorable. Her sweet husband Stewart also helped out us out last minute as we didn't have a photographer that day. Janice really came through for us on one of the MOST important days of our lives. She is truly an angel. I cannot imagine having ANYONE else officiate our wedding. She is extremely respectful, kind and has such a loving soul. Before I walked down the aisle to marry my man she had a chat with me and just put my nerves at ease with her cheerful and positive demeanor. She said everything looks fabulous and she wasn't kidding. With Janice you will get someone who is funny, quick witted, thinks on her feet and knows how to get everyone to have a good time. We cannot thank her enough for making our day so special and memorable even during a Pandemic. Janice is the best in the biz of Love.

Wonderful experience. Perfect day
Janice was hired, basically last minute, for our elopement. She was quick to respond to my email reaching out, literally the same day. From the moment we spoke on the phone, her cheery demeanor and all around wonderful energy, told me she was the one! Janice is so sweet and lovely and really does everything she can to make your day special. No matter what the style or need, for me I wanted a simple, quick ceremony and she delivered! I am honestly so happy to have had her there. Here warm energy and enthusiasm and joy in what she does is very apparent in everything she does! I plan on hiring her for our ceremony where we will be able to invite all our friends and family, post covid vaccine, and she's already agreed! I just absolutely adore her! I recommend Janice for your event, no matter what you're looking for, I can just tell she really tries her best to be at YOUR wedding. She drove almost 90(!) Minutes one way to do my 3 minute ceremony! We joked she made her money for the drive LOL. This level of dedication is difficult to find. Her variable prices make it easy to choose what is best for you too! Again, Janice is absolutely wonderful, can't say enough positive things. 10/10 stars, big recommend.

Working with Janice was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
From the moment we met Janice, we were so happy to have her officiating our wedding. She took the time to explain everything during our initial meeting, gave us lots of options and ensured we were comfortable with every detail of our big day. Janice has a great sense of humour and didn’t hesitate to share that during the ceremony with her own personal touches. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience working with Janice and would recommend her to all.
