John at A Perfect Witness made our day perfect. He really made a great effort to personalize our ceremony and make sure that everything was exactly how my husband and I wanted. He was very responsive to e-mails and very organized, making sure that all the bases were covered so I did not have to worry. Everyone loved the ceremony and appreciated the special touches. I would recommend John to anyone!

The vendor we struggled with most was an officiant. I was baptized Catholic, though now not a practicing Catholic and my husband is non-denominational Christian, with a very religious mother. Since we do not belong to a church and were having an outdoor ceremony to several family members' dismay, it was difficult to choose someone to marry us, while probably the most important vendor to hire! When we met with John, it was like a breath of fresh air - he listened closely to our concerns and values to create a ceremony that would not only be perfect for us, but for our families as well. He even gave us a few new ideas to incorporate, such as the Bell of Truce. He was extremely flexible with our crazy work schedules and quick to respond to my emails. We were extremely pleased with our ceremony and loved that John prepared a folder with the ceremony actually typed out for a keepsake.

Jayne was absolutely fantastic! A great personality, fun to work with and dedicated to making the ceremony perfect in every way. She took the time to meet with not only the bride and groom, but the parents and bridal party also to get a real feel for the bride and groom as a couple.
The vows were poignant and very special for Marissa and Corey. She also looked fabulous in her wedding attire. Highly recommended in all aspects.

Jayne was the Officiant for our ceremony and she helped to create a wonderful experience for us. She helped find the perfect floral set up on the beach and helped us make our ceremony special. She was available to answer all of our questions and even met with us to go over the specific details. Jayne made a stressful day turn into something amazing. We were very satisfied with the service provided by Jayne from a Perfect Witness and would recommend them to our friends and family.

John Melchinger and his wonderful wife were our rocks during the wedding planning and wedding ceremony. They were organized, professional, experienced, and made us feel very confident. I would highly recommend!

I found A Perfect Witness on the internet and as an out-of-town bride I was concerned about hiring someone I could not meet in person. John and his wife Jayne worked with me every step of the way to make sure that I had the perfect wedding customized just for me. They were always attentive to my needs and quick to return my calls or emails. My wedding was absolutely beautiful and everything was just as I had been promised. I would highly recommend a Perfect Witness to any couple looking for a special and personalized wedding!

John came up with an excellent service for us based on our input and his questions. It seemed like we had known him for years. We got many compliments from the guests that attended as well. I highly recommend him.

From the moment we met Jayne, we were taken by how dedicated she was in ensuring our day would be a PERFECT one. She was very patient with us, asked many questions we had not even thought of, and offered so many beautiful ideas. On our wedding day, Jayne was very punctual and prepared. She went out of her way to keep me calm, helping me with my tie, :-) and making sure everything was in place. When she finally got to speak... It was beautiful. Its amazing how she put everyting we had spoke of, our children, our family, honoring those present, and those who have past. Everything was perfectly worded at the just the right moment and place of the ceremony. Many guests came to us during the reception to ask us if Jayne and Her husband John were long time acquantances of ours, for how much heart and emotion she put into our ceremony. Early on, we knew Jayne was the right one, only after a few days of knowing her, we just had to invite her and her husband to stay and spend some time with us during the reception as well.
Needless to say, We HIGHLY recommend Jayne or John without any reservation to be your wedding officiants.

Sincerely Yours,
Javier and Cecilia Aponte

Jayne was amazing! She took detailed notes on our interests and needs and made sure to stand true to them on our wedding day. Every word spoken at the ceremony was completely "us" which made it even more powerful. I would recommend Jayne in a heartbeat. Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts, for making our wedding so memorable!

When we were looking for an officiant for our wedding we came across A Perfect Witness on the internet. While looking at the website we liked the sample services they provided, when we saw Jayne, we knew she would be a good addition to our wedding service. When we first talked with Jayne to discuss the wedding I knew right away that we had made a perfect choice. Jayne is professional, yet very personable and friendly. You know that she is going to provide you with a high level of service. She was able to get a feel right away for the type of ceremony my husband and I were looking for, something light hearted, with a touch of humor, to include sentiment regarding lost family members and also the blending of two families together. She understood our wants and was able to provide us with exactly what we were looking for. I would highly recommend Jayne to anyone looking for an officiant. I couldn’t be happier with the ceremony she provided us.

Mr. John Melchinger is an amazing Officiant. He not only surprised me and my husband with the service but also blew my guests away! He is very professional but also personal at the same time. After talking with him on the phone I felt like I knew him for a long time. He made me feel very comfortable when planning the ceremony and took time to talk with me about special details. He is also very affordable, which is a plus in today's economy. He was punctual and stayed in touch with me by email and phone. I would refer Mr. Melchinger to any of my friends and family. Five stars all around!!! :)

After careful research and meeting many officiants, we chose Bob from Perfect Witness as our Officiant. He was very nice and so accommodation during our search. He met with us several times and worked diligently on making our ceremony the way we wanted it. On the day of the wedding he mingled with family and bridal party and put everyone at ease before the big moment. Our ceremony was classy, intimate and most importantly just how we imagined it. He is such a warm and welcoming guy and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to marry us. Thank you Bob!!

James an I were drawn to Jayne right away. She is so sweet and made us feel like we had known her for years.

She created a beautiful, personal ceremony just for us that we will never forget.

We are so grateful that she was able to spend our special day with us!

John was an amazing Officiant!
He was brought to my ceremony exactly what we wanted in a wedding the wording and vibe!
He is the guy to go with when booking your wedding!

John was an excellent officiant. He made the whole process easy and stress free. He gave us many different options to really design a custom ceremony just for us. He added just the right amount of lightheartedness and humor to really help us feel relaxed and focused during the ceremony. All in all I would recommend John and A Perfect Witness to anyone who wants a unique and totally personalized experience. Thanks for everything!! <3 Joe and Anna

John did a wonderful job at our wedding. His ceremony was exactly what we wanted. He took the time to get to know us as a couple and he wrote a beautiful ceremony that fit our needs and desires. He had the right amount of seriousness mixed with the right amount of humor for those moments in the ceremony that needed a giggle! Our ceremony flowed smoothly and really reflected me and my husband as a couple, which is the best anyone could ever hope for! I would recommend John to anyone; he was FANTASTIC!!!
