A Fantastic Choice

My wife and I recently got married in Alexandria and as many of you are likely experiencing, planning a wedding can be a little stressful with lots of tricky decisions; but let me assure you, choosing Joan is not one of them.


We found Joan through an online search for DMV officiants and on reaching out to her, we were immediately impressed and at ease with her knowledge, demeanor and helpful nature. She met with us a couple of times over video call in the build up to the ceremony to ensure we got exactly what we were after. Understanding our particular needs she tailored a ceremony that was definitely us. She also provided useful information about the marriage process and what to expect in relation to the legal side of it. In addition she was great value for money.


On our wedding day Joan delivered a wonderfully special ceremony. It had a good mixture of humor, poignancy and was praised by our family and friends in attendance. I would absolutely recommend Joan for any would-be couple.

Amazing officiant

Joan was so amazing to work with, my husband and I could not have been happier with choosing Joan as our officiant. My husband and I come from different religious backgrounds and Joan helped us in choosing the perfect non religious ceremony that felt the most right to us and also helped guide on different ways to have our ceremony. Joan is the absolute sweetest and best to work with!

Joan was great

My husband and I couldn't have been happier with our decision to hire Joan as our officiant. From the beginning she was super responsive and we felt like she took the time to really get to know us. She welcomed our decision to have a short but meaningful ceremony and helped us put something together that really felt right and represented who we are as a couple. On the day of everrything went smoothly and we had such a good expierence with here. We would recommend her to any couple!
