Reverend Judith is a thoughtful, caring, experienced officiant, who quite literally wrote the book on wedding ceremony planning. She took the time to meet us and get to know us and our preferences long before the wedding. She helped us craft and coordinate a beautiful ceremony. She was a wonderful celebrant and was a critical part of our special day. We highly recommend her to couples attempting to put together a loving and beautiful ceremony that you will always remember. Gerald and Kristin Flattmann

Judith was the perfect Officiant for our wedding. My husband and I wanted something warm, personal, and with some ritual and spiritual elements but not religious. After an in person meeting Judith completely understood what we were looking for and helped guide us through the process. Using her book, which has many beautiful passages to choose from, we put together a ceremony that had everything we imagined. Judith kept us on track and delivered a warm, personal, and humorous ceremony that our guests raved about. I recommend her highly.

Rev Johnson did an amazing job with our ceremony. She is very professional and takes the task of planning your ceremony with you VERY seriously. She was incredibly helpful to this very very busy couple and made the process as easy as possible. To this day, people are still telling us how much they loved our ceremony.

When we first met Judith we knew that we had to have her officiate our wedding. She was very welcoming and so easy to talk to. Judith took the time to get to know us as a couple and on a personal level as well. When it came time to plan our ceremony she was extremely available and considerate. We were able to customize a wedding that expresses our personality. She was very helpful and flexible when it was time to write our vows and made the effort to make sure we were saying what we wanted to say. On the day of our rehearsal she was very organized when meeting our friends and family and the day of the wedding she went out of her way to make sure that we were both calm and prepared. Her delivery at the ceremony was elegant and so clear. Everyone was sharing their compliments to us on how beautiful our ceremony was and how well spoken Judith was. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant.

From the moment we spoke with Reverend Johnson, we knew that she had to be our wedding officiant. The entire process was not only organized and efficient, but Judith really helped us turn our focus to the real purpose of the wedding. We had become so wrapped up in the parties, the invite list and the logistics of everything, that we were so happy to have someone in the process help to ground us. To help us focus on our relationship and beginning our life together as a married couple. Judith has a wonderful process, including worksheets that guide you in your planning. And buying and using her book was really helpful for us. She also helped us write our vows, which we revealed to each other during the ceremony. It was so helpful to have her guide us on this aspect. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Judith. The wedding was perfect and we owe so much of that to Reverend Johnson. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

Reverend Judith Johnson, is absolutely the way to go. She is very professional and down to earth. She makes it a point to get to know the people that she is working for, and will help them in any way she can.
After our first meeting, we knew that Judith was the officiant for us. We met her at her home, with her 2 cats, and she proceeded to get to know us and where we came from. Asking what type of wedding we were looking for and location. She listened closely and gave some suggestions as we went.
Her book and worksheets, which she gives to all her couples, were extremely helpful; the book gave us many different options and wordings that we could either copy or alter to suit our wedding and tastes.

We would recommend her to anyone!! Doesn't matter your faith, orientation, or wedding style, Judith is right for everyone! Judith will work with you from day one to help make your special day go flawlessly!

She is the best!!

Reverend Judith Johnson gives a 5 star wedding service. My husband and I were all over the board, wanting a little bit of this and some of that, we wanted it to be spiritual but not overly religious ... we had a long list of "wants"! . Reverend Johnson really listened to our wishes and crafted a service, unique to us, incorporating all our desires. Her relaxed professionalism made us trust her implicitly and immediately put us at ease. Our ceremony was picture perfect thanks to Reverend Johnson. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!

When we met with Judith for the first time, we knew in an instant that she was the officiant for us. Her warm demeanor, helpful ideas and genuine excitement for our day sealed the deal. Our goal was to create a ceremony that was heartfelt, unique to us and that would touch our guests. Judith's book was an amazing resource for all sorts of ideas and served as a wonderful blueprint that helped simplify the whole process. Her feedback, editing suggestions and help with our vows made our ceremony beautifully polished. Since our wedding, so many people have approached me to tell me how beautiful the ceremony was and to talk about specific parts of it--it's obvious that they were touched, as we were, and this whole experience exceeded all my hopes. Judith is a lovely speaker, a wonderful person and she'll feel like part of your family. I couldn't recommend her more.
