Came through at the last minute!

We had hired someone that was ordained by the Universal Life Church without realizing that anyone can do that, even without training. About a month before our ceremony, that person stopped responding. I had to start searching for a new person, but we didn't want a religious ceremony.

Janis was available & willing to do the ceremony the way we wanted it. She helped us figure out the processional to include our parents who were divorced and remarried. Best of all, I could reach her anytime I wanted and she was willing for us choose things the way we wanted. I never heard back from the first officiant!

Why recommend

Janis is very responsive, offers excellent suggestions yet is flexible. Her humor is excellent. We really appreciated Janis' ceremony and readings handout/suggestions so we didn't have to start from scratch yet we could alter it or add to it.

Great job!

Janis did a great job - she walked us through a wide range of choices about what to include in the ceremony during the planning sessions, then delivered a very pleasant ceremony that worked out just the way we had hoped, complete with the vows we wrote ourselves.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
