About

On WeddingWire since 2022

I am an experienced officiant, writer and speaker who will help you craft your ceremony. Making it one of a kind, both fun and romantic, is my specialty.I will recapture your romance as I tell your love story. If you want to do personal vows, I have worksheets that will assist you in finding the words that capture your love and commitment. I can write them or help you write them. Then customizing traditionally structured vows and/or a ring ceremony adds richness. The first kiss and announcement of you and your partner as married is cause for celebration. It will be unforgettable and something you will talk about the rest of your lives. I offer a no obligation consultation. We can see if I am the one for you. I answer your questions and don't ask for a commitment until you and your partner have had a chance to discuss it and then you let me know via a text. I want you to be comfortable and to have the officiant you want. I would be honored to be your officiant.

Unique and Engaging Ceremony

I was digging through a lot of officiants and Terri Jo caught my eye towards the end of the list (The Knot). The universe urged me to contact her like it was meant to be. I loved how she did a chemistry call with us first, to make sure we vibed. She has a passion for literature and that showed. We loved how she took the lead. She wrote/developed the entire ceremony (unique to us) and coordinated with our other vendors on the big day - it was a seamless experience! During the ceremony, she kept all our guests engaged, interested, and laughing. We, the bride and groom, felt very relaxed at the alter. Even now, guests are quoting back to me their favorite parts of the ceremony. I'm guilty of spacing out during wedding ceremonies I've attended, so I'm impressed that our guests enjoyed it and remember vividly!!

Perfect Officiant for our day!

Terri is wonderful! She made planning our ceremony and vows so stress free. She took the time to get to know us both and wrote our love story so well it moved all our guests and us to happy tears! She is a delight to work with and we would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking to get married in Utah. We said I do in Zion National Park and she made the trip down for it. All our guests raved about how wonderful she was and we agree! Thank you Terri for helping to make our special day that much more memorable!
