Absolutely wonderful

My now-wife and I met Janice when we were looking for an officiant, and we felt we had an instant connection! Janice's friendly, down-to-earth nature put us very much at ease and she was SO helpful in explaining things to us for the ceremony. We wrote our own vows but we needed Janice's help with our 'Reading of Love' (basically our love story) and Janice stepped right up to write it with us at our rehearsal! She did a wonderful job with it, as with the rest of the ceremony, including incorporating our water ceremony into it. Her husband Stuart was so helpful too, helping me calm down when we found out the limousine went to the wrong location! Thank you Janice & Stuart - you made our special day so wonderful!

Janice was a pleasure to work with!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Janice for our wedding, and we couldn't have asked for a better officiant. From the very beginning, she was incredibly helpful—always quick to answer any questions we had and made the entire process feel so easy and stress-free. She was kind, accommodating, and truly a joy to work with. Her calming presence and friendly personality helped set the perfect tone for our ceremony. We’re so grateful she was part of our special day!

Excellent Wedding Officiant

We can’t say enough wonderful things about our wedding officiant! From the very beginning, she made the entire process feel personal, relaxed, and completely *us*. She took the time to truly get to know our story and made us feel like more than just another couple—she was genuinely invested in who we are.

She was incredibly easy to talk to, a fantastic speaker, and brought such warmth and calm to our ceremony. It honestly felt like she was part of the family. She was flexible, on time, and went above and beyond—she even brought a candle for the ceremony and coordinated her outfit with our wedding colors! Every detail mattered to her, and it showed.

Her fees were also very reasonable for the care and attention we received. We felt supported every step of the way, without any pressure—just encouragement and kindness.

If you're looking for someone to officiate your wedding who will make it meaningful, personal, and full of heart, we couldn’t recommend her more!

Best of the best

Janice was such a joy to work with. She catered to our needs and always had helpful suggestions. She guided us throughout the entire process, and on numerous occasions she'd call and confirm our plans and wording choices to have our special day flow seamlessly. We indeed felt very at ease during our ceremony. We loved how relatable Janice is and she made our guests feel comfortable with her relaxed, jovial nature. We are very happy to have chosen Janice to officiate for us and would recommend her to anyone tying the knot. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Janice!

Fun officiant!

If you're looking for an officiant who is fun, realistic, practical, knowledgeable, helpful, BUT won't rip you off, Janice is the one! We got lucky she was available on such a short notice. We felt comfortable planning with her. She remained organized and attentive to our needs. Our guests definitely enjoyed the ceremony because she made it light and fun, just like how we wanted it to be.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
