About

Ann Jacob Ceremonies is a wedding officiant based in Seattle, WA.

If you're looking for an officiant to help you celebrate your important milestone moment, you've come to the right place!

A little about me: I grew up outside of Philadelphia playing the violin at weddings. I loved watching couples share their love and commit to loving one another in front of their village, their biological and chosen family. A few years later, I went to graduate school at Yale University and studied theology to train to become a pastor. When I graduated, I moved to Seattle, Washington, to serve a progressive and inclusive United Methodist Church. The first wedding I officiated was for my college best friend and her British fiancé. It was a beautiful wedding filled with ritual and meaning. Through my role as a pastor, I had the opportunity to officiate the weddings of many couples. I worked closely with each couple to create a personal and meaningful ceremony that looked and felt just as they envisioned.

I'm passionate about this work - bearing witness to love and cultivating rituals and ceremonies - and am looking forward to knowing more about you and your special day. I am committed to providing an inclusive and welcoming environment and service for all clients and individuals regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, age, race, color, religion, spirituality, ethnicity, or disability. Love is love!

The initial consultation is free, via phone or Zoom, so we can get a sense if this is the right fit and begin to create the perfect ceremony for you today!

Ann Helped Create Our Dream Wedding

Ann was able to pick our brains and take our thoughts and incorporate them into a beautiful, poetic wedding. I'd recommend her for any couple looking to be married from a humble service to a grand ceremony.

Ann is the best!

We are so glad we hired Ann for our queer wedding. She treated us with such kindness, and the ceremony was exactly what we wanted. She worked with me through each and every piece of the ceremony script, and was open to edits on everything. As soon as we met her in person, it felt like we had been friends for years. She's so good at what she does!

Amazing experience!

Ann was such a delight to work with! My husband and I went very non traditional and non religious with our ceremony and got married with a very small group of people in the North Cascades in Washington. Ann did an amazing job with making our ceremony feel cohesive and not awkward with how small our group was. She was very communicative and flexible considering we had to make a lot of decisions last minute with our locations. All of our friends and family talked about how amazing she did and how kind she is. I could not recommend Ann enough to anyone in the PNW/Washington area looking for their perfect officiant!

Ann is the absolute best!

From our initial introduction call, it was clear that Ann was going to be a great fit for us. She showed such a genuine interest in getting to know our story and personality right off the bat. That quality extended through every step of the process and into our wedding ceremony. Ann is such a thoughtful, caring, and calm presence which was so comforting as we started to feel the stress of wedding planning. We cannot imagine anyone else officiating our wedding; the ceremony was absolutely perfect!

Ann's organization and direction at rehearsal were critical for preparing us and our wedding party for the big day. I had so many guests compliment our choice of officiant at the reception and days following the wedding. Thank you so much, Ann, we cannot overstate how grateful we are for you.
