Jen Exceeded our Expectations

We called Jen last minute when we decided to elope to Bozeman, Montana. She helped make our wedding truly unforgettable by handling every detail from flowers, restaurant suggestions, marriage license, photographer as well as our spectacular ceremony site. Thanks Jen, you nailed it!

So Grateful for Jen

We cannot recommend Jen highly enough! From the very beginning, Jen made the process feel effortless. She somehow managed to capture our entire story so beautifully and authentically. The ceremony she created felt incredibly personal, heartfelt, and uniquely us. On our wedding day in Big Sky, Montana, she delivered a ceremony that exceeded every expectation. There was not a single dry eye among our family and friends. In fact, every guest came up to us afterward to ask where we found her and to tell us how amazing the ceremony was. It was one of the most common comments we heard all weekend.

If you're looking for an officiant who will create a deeply personal, meaningful, and unforgettable ceremony, we wholeheartedly recommend Jen and Vow & Venture. Her ability to tell your story with such warmth, authenticity, and emotion is truly a gift. We are so grateful she was part of our wedding day.

Like a friend I’ve known forever ✨

Jen was truly one of the greatest blessings of our wedding day. 🤍 From the very first message I sent, hoping and praying she could help us, she immediately made everything feel calm, personal, and meaningful.

She was so thoughtful and intentional about making our ceremony about us—our story, our love, and the beginning of our marriage. Her attention to detail was next level, and the way she took time with our kids made the day even more special. She somehow brought a sense of calm to all the little details and made us feel completely cared for.

If you’re looking for someone who will create a ceremony that feels genuine, personal, and full of meaning, look no further. We are so grateful for Jen and the lasting memories she helped create for us.

If you want lasting memories with the sweetest woman in Montana, look her up! 🤍✨

Planning an Elopement in a week?!

Jen was our officiant for our elopement in Missoula. My husband and I decided to elope with a week to plan and make arrangements. I started researching officiants and when the first one fell through, I resorted to looking at an elopement Facebook page and came across Jen. From the moment I reached out to her she was responding immediately, despite being on vacation in Italy! Jen asked questions about my vision (which was pretty much non-existent at that point), vendors, etc. She had a list of recommendations ready when I needed them. Jen sent my husband and I a questionnaire to custom write the ceremony and it turned out perfectly. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better scenario for our ceremony; I was in tears before she made it through the first two sentences. From the second Jen walked through the door, she had a calming presence and ran the show, checking in with me while I was getting ready to make sure things were running smoothly and how I wanted them. We could not have pulled off this last-minute elopement without the help and expertise of Jen. You could tell she genuinely loves what she takes and takes pride in her work. I cannot say enough great things about Jen! If you are considering her as your wedding officiant, I promise you will not be disappointed. She definitely exceeds expectations in my book! Thank you Jen for making our special day perfect in every way!

Amazing!!!!

Just wow… When my wife and I were first looking for an officiant, we were just expecting a warm body to say a few words and do what was legally necessary for us to be married. We honestly were more focused on who the photographer would be and  thought that was the more important investment. Well… we were absolutely incorrect. 

From the start, Jen was an absolute superstar and showed us the value and impact an officiant can bring not only on our wedding day, but the months and weeks leading up to the big day.

To be transparent I tried negotiating the price on our first call because the “internet” told me officiants are not that expensive. And boy did I feel like an idiot for haggling her after experiencing the wedding ceremony because Jen absolutely blew us  away with her service and efforts throughout the process. In fact, I gave her a tip after the ceremony because we were so impressed.

If you are looking for someone who will take the time to truly learn what makes your relationship with your partner special and bring that story to life in your ceremony, Jen is the your girl! 

No spoilers here, just be ready for lots of tears and special memories you will remember forever ❤️
