Wedding Officiant
I'm so honored to write this review. Jack set the tone for our wedding and he did a beyond phenomenal job!!
We looked into several officiants, and my husband and I had a feeling about Jack. Especially after reading his reviews/website I felt we shared a very similar outlook.
We first started off with a Zoom call and immediately we loved his kind, warm, outgoing, funny personality. We could tell he not only was a professional and confident in what he does, but he is a great listener and treats each couple with personal/individual attention.
He offers premarital counseling; which I recommend taking advantage off! We met with him a few weeks before the wedding, and he spoke with us about what can support a long lasting marriage…inviting us into conversations that that my partner hadn’t touched on. This was incredibly valuable as we listened to each other and Jack, we got to see new perspectives. He has an incredible energy that makes you feel like you've been friends for years.
On the actual wedding day Jack couldn’t have been any more perfect. He has a way of putting you at ease. My husband and I felt extremely comfortable with him there supporting us at the altar. He takes great care in curating a personalized ceremony that was reflective of how we met, what makes our relationship work, our values, and the love for our friends and family. The ceremony was beautiful, at times funny, deeply moving, and captured very bit of my husband and I. Sharing our love story and drawing in each guest there. Everyone and I mean EVERYONE raved about Jack and they asked who he was because he spoke as if he knew us for years.
The ceremony was breathtaking and there wasn't a dry eye. I credit Jack to putting this all together, taking the time to get to know us, and creating an experience we’ll deeply treasure in our lives forever. After the wedding day, he sent us the script of our ceremony to have as a beautiful keepsake memory!!
Jack, we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day the best day ever and for calming our nerves. Thank you for being the best officiant!!! Heather & TimI'm so honored to write this review. Jack set the tone for our wedding and he did a beyond phenomenal job!!

jack helped make our ceremony perfect
Jack was so great! I can honestly say that, after we met with Jack, we knew that our wedding was going to be special. During his telling of our story, he spoke with such sincerity and enthusiasm. Our intimate setting was the perfect match for Jack's genuine kindness and joy. We had so many perfect moments, I couldn't imagined it going any better! -Lucas A.Jack was so great!

Jack was the perfect addition to our special day. My husband and I couldn't have been happier with him. We planned our small backyard wedding with very short notice and Jack was gracious enough to accommodate all of our last minute plans. We were married in the evening and he even squeezed us in after an afternoon wedding that he had already committed to.
The message he delivered during the ceremony was exactly what we wanted. He had the perfect balance of humor and tradition and included personal anecdotes about my husband and I, while still giving us the benefit of the wisdom he has gained from his own 20 plus years of marriage.
I recommend Jack to anyone who is looking for a sincere, heartfelt message with a touch of relaxed humor that brides, grooms, and guests can all relate to and appreciate.Jack was the perfect addition to our special day.

My wife and I were looking for Pastors in the San Diego Area and found Pastor J online. He had great reviews so we contacted him to meet up and see if he was the right officiant for us. Honestly he was the perfect pastor. He's funny, personable and really just makes everyone feel comfortable. After the wedding my father-in-law asked how long we've known Pastor J for because it seemed like he was a long time friend, but honestly we only met with him for an hour prior to our wedding. I'd recommend him to anyone getting married in the San Diego Area, hands down.My wife and I were looking for Pastors in the San Diego Area and found Pastor J online.

We had Pastor Jack Hawkins marry us in October at our winery wedding. We initially selected him because we watched videos of some of his ceremonies online and loved his style. He is relaxed, funny and professional. He tailored the vows with the story of how we met and fell in love. We are so glad we selected Jack and would highly recommend him to anyone.We had Pastor Jack Hawkins marry us in October at our winery wedding.

Pastor Jack is quite simply the best pastor I have ever seen at any wedding…and this is not because it was my wedding. He is professional, polished, and extremely personable. His professional skills and experience combined with his outgoing personality enable him to tailor his style to fit your needs and set the tone that you desire for your wedding ceremony. He is friendly and puts you at ease the day of your wedding. The most impressive thing about Pastor Jack is to actually see him in action conducting a ceremony – he dresses professionally, his voice captivates the attention of the audience, and his presentation is the best I’ve ever seen. Pastor Jack’s personal message on love and marriage is the best I’ve heard and something every married couple should hear. Lastly, the simple pre-marital questionnaire he has each person do is a very powerful exercise and really crystallizes why you are marrying this person. A month after our wedding, my wife and I decided to read each other’s “wedding homework” and we were quickly brought to tears when we heard all the wonderful thoughts and feelings expressed about each other, some of which we weren’t even aware of or had ever expressed before. If you want the wedding of your dreams, Pastor Jack is the officiant you must have.Pastor Jack is quite simply the best pastor I have ever seen at any wedding…and this is not because it was my wedding.

Our wedding was a destination wedding, so we didn't have anyone in the area we knew well that we wanted to officiate our ceremony. We came across Jack in an online search - I met with him once and my husband "face timed" with him to meet him. We liked his demeanor and he was very accommodating when it came to personalizing the ceremony. We also appreciated his "no judgement" attitude as we come from families of varying religious beliefs. We filled out his questionnaire to help him get to know us, and I can't tell you how perfectly he told our story! We got so many comments from our guests about how personal and nice the ceremony was, and numerous people asked how we knew Jack! He has the most natural way of connecting with people, even larger groups. We really couldn't be happier with how the ceremony turned out - it was my favorite part of the day!Our wedding was a destination wedding, so we didn't have anyone in the area we knew well that we wanted to officiate our ceremony.

Amazing & memorable
Pastor Jack is a master at his craft and the ceremony he conducted for us was absolutely perfect. My wife & I had a destination wedding in La Jolla. We met Jack through a Wedding Wire search and after talking to him the first time on the phone, we actually cancelled the 2 other meetings we had with other officiants. He was funny, quick witted, and just had a natural flow with his conversation. We typed up an in-depth summation of my (new) wife & I’s relationship for him to read over before the wedding. He then took many pieces of our stories & experiences and SEAMLESSLY incorporated them into the ceremony sermon. Our guests were not only impressed, but blown away. Many asked if we had flown Jack out from our regular church in Indianapolis because of how in-depth and personable the ceremony felt. I highly recommend hiring Jack for your big day. There is truly no other pastor we would have rather used to officiate our happily ever after.
Forever grateful,

My husband and I wanted an intimate wedding ceremony in the San Diego area so we contacted the San Diego Wedding Guy-Jack Hawkins. I knew right away that Jack was the one for us as he was so warm and compassionate on the phone. He made great suggestions for location as we were coming from out of the area. He was so patient with us even with our last minute decisions. When we met with him for our ceremony he greeted us with a great big smile and that helped us to relax and enjoy our big day. We really appreciated the thoughtful words he expressed to us in officiating our vows to each other and it made our day that more meaningful. Much thanks to Jack for blessing us on our wedding day......we will always remember our beautiful time in La Jolla and can't wait to come back again for an anniversary trip.

Jack is a Wonderful, Calming Presence
Our wedding day was perfect, even with a few hiccups. Jack was a calming presence as we waited for the photographer to show up (he was stuck in traffic and arrived 30 minutes late). He read the biographical information we sent over to him and incorporated it perfectly into the ceremony. I would highly recommend Jack as your wedding officiant!Our wedding day was perfect, even with a few hiccups.

We hired Pastor Jack for my daughters wedding. We met with him and my daughter felt very comfortable. Then they set up a meeting for just the two of them. We loved how he made the ceremony personal in such he told a brief sermon about their love story. We also liked how we incorporated a sand ceremony for with his children. Everyone after the ceremony came up and asked who he was and where we found him. We couldn't be happier ...We hired Pastor Jack for my daughters wedding.

First of all, Jack is the pastor at our church! His messages are always so inspirational, thought provoking and relevant to our everyday life. When it came time for my fiancé and I to plan our wedding, it was a given that Jack had to perform the ceremony. I had 3 things I had to have for our wedding: #1 a dress, #2 a party, and #3 Jack. He knew us already, but gathered information from both of us and told our story in a heartfelt and sincere manner, with a little bit of light heartedness and joking thrown in....just like Jack always does at church. We had so many people comment on how his message during our ceremony made them reflect on their own marriage. We are so grateful that Jack was available to be our officiant and actually, we got married on a Sunday because as I said, he was a requirement and already booked on Saturday! Thank you again Jack for being a part of our special day and delivering such a heartfelt message during our ceremony!First of all, Jack is the pastor at our church!

When preparing for our March 10 wedding at Saint Francis Chapel in Balboa Park, we wanted to ensure our ceremony was meaningful, heartfelt and reflected our personalities. We wanted to keep the ceremony fun, but we also wanted it to be rooted in our spirituality and serious enough to mark the importance of the occasion. After meeting with Pastor Jack Hawkins, we knew immediately we’d found the right person to marry us. Not only was he extremely easy to chat with, he was genuinely interested in hearing about how we met and why we were marrying. He took that information and wove it into what many of our guests have called “the most warm, meaningful ceremony that we’ve witnessed.” Others called it “so much fun” and “a perfect reflection our personalities.” What can I say? Pastor Jack delivered exactly what we were looking for. He has an incredible gift to combine an appropriate amount of humor with the right about of seriousness for the day. I couldn’t be more pleased with Pastor Jack Hawkins as our officiant.When preparing for our March 10 wedding at Saint Francis Chapel in Balboa Park, we wanted to ensure our ceremony was meaningful, heartfelt and reflected our personalities.

Jack is amazing. His attention to detail, even for our small ceremony, amazed me. He is funny, sentimental, and made sure we were happy. He also took care of the legal side of it, making sure the marriage license was filled out correctly. I would recommend him any day for any wedding.Jack is amazing.

Worth Every Penny
The ceremony is really important, but sometimes people want to skip because let’s face it, it can be long and boring. With Jack that is absolutely not the case. From the get-go he made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We had a Zoom meeting with him before booking him and we instantly felt a connection. He recently moved from San Diego to Arizona and couldn’t make our rehearsal, but he jumped on another Zoom beforehand to make sure we felt confident with everything. Honestly he’s done hundreds and hundreds of weddings he really doesn’t need to be at the rehearsal and it will still go as smooth as butter. He was punctual and personable. He memorized our love story and blended his charming humor into the ceremony. Most ceremonies are only about 20-25 minutes, but we incorporated several Filipino cultural traditions and it ended up being 40 minutes. However, everyone said they were entertained the whole way through and it went by so fast. If you’re not religious, no worries. He speaks to love in a way that everyone can relate to. Hands down worth every penny.The ceremony is really important, but sometimes people want to skip because let’s face it, it can be long and boring. With Jack that is absolutely not the case. From the get-go he made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We had a Zoom meeting with him before booking him and we instantly felt a connection. He recently moved from San Diego to Arizona and couldn’t make our rehearsal, but he jumped on another Zoom beforehand to make sure we felt confident with everything. Honestly he’s done hundreds and hundreds of weddings he really doesn’t need to be at the rehearsal and it will still go as smooth as butter. He was punctual and personable.

Where do I begin…every good thing you have read or hear about Jack is true. My fiancée, now husband, and I searched and searched for the right person to officiate our ceremony. A week and a half before our wedding we met with Jack. He made us feel like family and we knew he was the one. He made our ceremony a success! Not only did all of my guests love him and make comments about how awesome he was, he also made me feel so very comfortable. I have social anxiety and was stressing over standing in front of an audience and saying my vows. During the ceremony he had everyone laughing which made me feel at ease and I was able to say my vows with no issue. He really makes you feel like he cares about you and your ceremony. There is something very special about him and what he does. It’s not just a job it’s a passion, and it is obvious! I recommend him to everybody that wants their ceremony to be personal, comfortable, fun, meaningful, and unforgettable. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Jack!!!

We would recommend Jack Hawkins to any Bride and Groom to be!
After interviewing multiple officiants, we chose Jack. Jack allowed us to express our spirituality and relationship with God in our own way. The ceremony was tailored to us as a couple, with a personal introduction in how we met, the characteristics we both fell in love with (from our homework) and shared his wisdom from his own marriage...wishing us strength and love!
Every one of our guests said he was be the best officiant they had ever witnessed... even asking if he was leading a ceremony at his church the next day so they could attend! His message made a profound impact on us and our wedding guests. And the final touch? He gave us the notes from the ceremony... so we could remember his words!
We would highly recommend him to any bride and groom! Thank you for an amazing experience!

Pastor Jack is an amazing officiant. His speech on our story touched so many people that most of our audience was in tears by the time he was finished. He personally writes all of his speeches for each couple, which makes it all the more special.

Pastor Jack is truly awesome! My husband and I were just married and July and are so happy to have had Jack be our officiant, it was such a fantastic ceremony. We initially met Jack back in March and instantly felt comfortable with him because he is so kind and warm and welcoming. We were then sent home to do our wedding homework and a few months later it was time for the big day!
The tone of the ceremony was everything we hoped for. Laid back, fun and personal. We had a couple of hiccups in the ceremony - a helicopter hovering the area, a rock clogging the vase in our sand ceremony but Jack was there to make light of the situation. We also had a few very last minute changes when my MOH was not able to attend and the person doing the reading decided the prefer not to do the reading - not a problem! Jack quickly worked around the changes.
Following the wedding, and weeks after the wedding, my husband and I received so many comments from friends and family about what a wonderful job the officiant did and how it was the best/most enjoyable ceremony they've ever been to. I've been to many weddings and don't think I've ever heard a guest compliment the officiant but we received multiple rave reviews about him.
Now my only regret is that we didn't hire a videographer for the ceremony! Having Pastor Jack as your officiant is a decision you will be happy you made!!Pastor Jack is truly awesome!

Jack was amazing! He asked us both questions before we met and personalized our ceremony making it humorous yet touching and moving. I received many compliments on the ceremony from guests who assumed we had known Jack for years. I would recommend him to anyone!Jack was amazing!

Need a responsible, professional wedding officiant who is funny but not a stand-up comedian? One who is religious but not overtly evangelistic? Someone to entertain your guests with appropriate and personalized humor while creating a ceremony that is meaningful, memorable and comfortable? Also available for wedding rehearsal services and very reasonably priced as well?
Jack Hawkins is your guy!!!
Fortunately, my new wife and I discovered Jack Hawkins on the web just months prior to our wedding. We needed an officiant and honestly didn’t even know where to start looking. We had seen many officiants on the web, but they seemed either zealously religious/stiff or considered weddings an opportunity for a stand-up comedy routine. We wanted a balance of religion, seriousness and humor from an officiant and found that and more in Jack Hawkins.
Jack met with us well in advance of our wedding and spent time getting know us and our backgrounds and wedding needs. We immediately felt at ease with him and knew he would be great on our special day. He had us fill out additional fun questionnaires to aid in his ceremony preparations and was very open to any arrangements/ceremonial changes we desired. He worked with us to design a wonderful ceremony and pulled it off without a hitch on the day. We had many approach us at our wedding and ask about Jack and pass accolades regarding his exceptional ceremony. Over the next several weeks, many more have mentioned Jack’s great job at our wedding. A friend attending the wedding even stole material from Jack’s arsenal for a wedding he officiated the following month!
In summary, we feel we got lucky with Jack and couldn’t be happier. We gladly recommend Jack Hawkins as a wedding officiant to anyone!
