The Best!!

Jeff is simply the best there is. Leading up to the wedding, Jeff was so professional and kind and effortlessly helped us create a ceremony that reflected who we are. We even met up for a quick ceremony run through that helped us see how everything would flow on the day of. After our ceremony, multiple guests approached us to tell us that Jeff was the best officiant they had ever seen at a wedding. We feel exactly the same way. We loved working with him and can't recommend him enough!

a very professional and easy-going officiant!

We couldn’t have been happier with our choice of wedding officiant! From the very first meeting, Jeff made us feel comfortable as he was very easygoing and easy to talk to. We had a few premarital counseling sessions with Jeff and he did a wonderful job mediating the discussions. He is very knowledgeable and took his time to hear us, understand, and talk to us through various topics.
Jeff provided several different templates to choose from on what style of ceremony we were looking for. Religious, Contemporary, Religious-Lite, and Agnostic to name a few. We went with Contemporary and then picked our vows, readings and tradition to put in the template. The ceremony itself was beautiful and heartfelt, and it was clear that Jeff is a true professional who reviews the script several times and puts a lot of time into making sure each ceremony is unique to the couple. We did not have Jeff at our rehearsal, so we met him the week of the wedding at a nearby coffee shop. He reviewed the script with us, but also gave us suggestions (“staging instructions”) to ensure beautiful photos and seamless flow!
Several people during our reception commented on how well the ceremony was officiated and we couldn't agree more! Jeff was funny and engaged with the guests a few times as well. We never had any doubt about saying “I do” to each other and Jeff was a big part of that!

An Unforgettable Ceremony with Jeff

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect officiant for our wedding. From day one, Jeff was warm, reassuring, and incredibly knowledgeable. His experience, thoughtful templates, and personalized recommendations were invaluable as we designed our ceremony. Looking back, it couldn’t have been more perfect—it was a true reflection of who we are as a couple.

Jeff’s presence is truly exceptional, striking the perfect balance between seriousness and levity. Practicing the ceremony with him a few days before the wedding, just the three of us, helped us feel calm and confident for the big day.

We can’t recommend Jeff highly enough and are so grateful that he played such a meaningful role in the start of our marriage. Thank you, endlessly, Jeff!
