Amazing Officiant

Dr. Burns was highly recommended to us. She has married 3 couples that are friends of ours. She was very sweet and easy going during our Zoom planning meetings. She gave us tips and really put our mind at ease. She has a system for organizing the many different parts of the ceremony, and it made planning very easy and stress free. She was lovely to work with, and we really appreciate her a lot for being a big part of our special day!

So easy to work with and makes your days special

Dr. Janine Burns was so wonderful from the moment we first reached out to her until the day of our wedding. She works with you to create a beautiful ceremony on your special day.

A unique wedding experience

Janine was extremely helpful in helping us create our wedding ceremony. This was a second marriage for both of us and we were both coming in with 2 adult children each who we wanted to include. We also were of different faiths. Together we created a beautiful unique ceremony that incorporated everything we wanted. We met a few times and constantly communicated through email.
Our family and friends all commented on how nice our ceremony was. I would totally recommend her services!!!!!
