    Professional, personable and fun!!!

    Reverend Burden exceeded expectations in all ways. She took time to meet with us to understand our needs and then personalized the service in a way that was inclusive, fun, and serious. We are a mixed faith couple, and our families were each wanting their respected faiths (Christian and Buddhist) to be respected in the ceremonies. There was a need to get this right, and Julie did just that. Both of our families complimented the service. She was just professional in all ways. We received numerous compliments on the vows and professionalism of how she conducted the service. If you are looking for a minister who can speak to the needs of families with varying faiths, and want a formality but also levity in your wedding - we highly recommend her. There might be less expensive options but I found her pricing spot-on for what she brings to the ceremony. I highly recommend taking her up on the consultation piece since that's where she has a chance to get to know you.

    Great service and helped get us married during Covid-19

    Julie was flexible and helped us get married even during the Covid-19 time frame where few things we planned turned out the way we had expected them.

    Highly Recommend for premarital and officiant services

    There were several officiants we considered during the wedding planning process. Julie stood out to us because she offered premarital counseling as a licensed professional counselor and officiant services. She is easy to talk to and responsive. We were a long-distance couple and she was flexible with us arranging virtual and in-person counseling sessions. We reflected on different subjects during premarital counseling which was thought-provoking and helpful to have a third person facilitating that conversation. She worked with us to customize our ceremony, which was beautifully written and well-executed. We are grateful that she was a part of our wedding planning journey as fiances to now husband and wife. We surely will miss our counseling sessions with her and we plan to do our best to put the lessons we learned into action throughout our marriage. Thank you again, Julie.

    Great experience

    Julie was thorough and helpful guiding us through this process. During the consultation before the wedding she walked us through everything we needed to know and pointed out aspects we hadn’t yet considered. She was very open to our suggestions and working with us. The day of the ceremony went great. She is well spoken and had a nice ceremony prepared.

    Excellent Prep and Ceremony

    Julie was absolutely outstanding! She met exactly what we asked for at our ceremony as well as providing excellent guidance before the wedding via her prepare and enrich course. We could tell she really cared about making sure that we were happy and had what we wanted.

    All the above was especially appreciated with the odd time we are living in right now. Julie was flexible for all meetings, and was able to meet via video chat to discuss whatever we needed.

    Please consider using her for your wedding, you won’t be disappointed!

    Everything and more!!

    Julie was amazing! My husband and I made a last minute decision to get married and Julie was so flexible. We were able to get an amazing ceremony that was somewhat custom to us within a week! She is very professional and helpful. I will always recommend her!

    Excellent Communication and Ceremony (Despite COVID)

    Through COVID, Julie did a great job meeting with us via Zoom and talking about what we wanted for our wedding. She was very upfront, responsive, performed our in-person ceremony respecting social distancing during COVID, and even sent our signed marriage license with a tracking number which she provided us with the same day. We had our license back in a week. We are very happy Julie also did a great job for us on such short notice - less than three weeks to be exact, due to the changes caused by constantly changing laws. If we had to do it all over again, with a larger party and longer ceremony, we’d happily choose Julie again.

    Fantastic Officiant

    From our first meeting, to the rehearsal, to the wedding itself, Julie was nothing short of professional, warm, genuine, and kind. Planning a wedding is no small feat -- Julie took the time to get to know us, crafted a beautiful ceremony, and kept us smiling when nerves threatened to take over. We could not be happier with our choice of officiant and know that anyone else who requests her services will be, too. Thank you, Julie!

    Special Ceremony

    We reached out to Heart Filled Journey needing someone to do a small ceremony on a very short notice. Julie responded quickly. She gave us a very intimate ceremony at our home. She was very professional and genuine. I would recommend her to anyone that wants a personal & private feel to their wedding!

    Exceptional!

    Julie more than exceeded expectations for my ceremony. I looked into Heart Filled Journeys after attending my aunt’s wedding in which Julie officiated. Needless to say I was extremely impressed with her efficiency, professionalism, and warmth.

    Wedding Officiant

    Rev. Julie Burden was a joy to work with and made our wedding so special! We had a last minute change in the officiant and Rev. Burden was patient and thoughtful enough to make it feel like we’d known her for much longer! We got numerous compliments on her readings and overall presence at the wedding. Would highly recommend her to anyone needing a wedding officiant!

    The BEST officiant!

    Julie was amazing from the first phone call I had with her! She was very communicative and organized. We also did premarital counseling sessions with her. She is very patient, kind, and has an enormous amount of empathy. She helped us with communication skills and also we got to know each other better, which I think helped when it came to the ceremony.

    We were nervous about having a meaningful ceremony when we didn’t know the officiant prior to being engaged but Julie blew us away! We did a customized ceremony and we didn’t know the first thing about what to include, but Julie had examples and suggestions that helped to make the right ceremony for us. Her words were so kind and she includes all the guests in the ceremony. We received endless compliments at the wedding and after about her. She also took care of mailing in our marriage license. Thank you so much for being part of our day, Julie!!

    Julie did an amazing job with our wedding ceremony. She was very responsive, professional, and kind through the process of planning and performing our wedding ceremony. We received many compliments from family and friends that were at our wedding at what a wonderful wedding ceremony we had. We would recommend Julie to anyone looking for a professional and kind wedding officiant. Julie wrote a custom ceremony for us and made sure to customize our ceremony to fit us as a couple.

    We knew Julie was right for our wedding from the moment we first spoke. She really got to know us and what we were looking for in our ceremony. Julie’s experience helped bring to light some things we had not even considered. She showed up in plenty of time for the ceremony and made us feel very at ease. Julie helped to make our wedding very memorable and we are so very thankful.

    Julie was wonderful! I found her a week before our wedding and we couldn't be happier with the ceremony. We met with her a few days prior to the event and she went over everything with us; from the time she would get to our home to the way she was going to file our marriage certificate. There were no surprises!! We highly recommend her.

    Reverend Julie made our wedding ceremony perfect! She understood exactly what type of ceremony we wanted, and she even involved both of our parents and our guests in the ceremony. It was heartfelt with just the right amount of humor. Many people complimented on what a great job she did. We are so happy that we found her!

    We had to rearrange our wedding and lost our original officiant. We found Julie on the internet. We liked the way she was presented online. We made contact by email initially and then went to her premises with only two days to the wedding. We instantly clicked with Julie She understood exactly the type of ceremony we wanted;; Christian led but relaxed. On the day many guests commented on Julie’s ability, how everyone felt at ease instantly and that she had the right degree of laughter and seriousness. From meeting with Julie, and with only two days to go, I felt absolutely confident that we had made the right decision in choosing her and we’re so grateful for having found her. She did the best job on the day of all officiants I have seen at weddings ever and we couldn’t be more grateful to her for making our ceremony so special.

    Julie was so professional and helpful as an Officiant. She took the time to really let us customize our ceremony to what we wanted it to be. Our biggest requirement was incorporating our children into the ceremony and she was able to do that. We had several compliments after the ceremony on how great our officiant was. :) I would recommend Julie to anyone!

    From the first meeting with Julie we knew she was the perfect person for our Wedding Ceremony. She made the process so easy with the choices of Vows to the choice of wording for the ring exchage. Even though we had only had a couple of meetings I felt like she was able to prepare and perform a ceremony for Kevin and I as if she had known us for years. My family asked how long we had known Julie and were surprised that we had only met her a couple of times to plan the ceremony. She was even more personable than we had expected! It was the Best Day Ever!

    Thank You Julie Burden!
