    Jed was our officiant for our wedding and he did an amazing job. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who wants someone that is very professional and put so much thought and detail into the process. He was on time for both the rehearsal and wedding and helped make everything go smoothly and perfect! Thank you Jed for making our ceremony absolutely perfect. Cannot wait to see the video!

    Jed was amazing to work with! He incorporated personal aspects into our ceremony and was always responsive and available to answer any questions we had throughout the planning process. He arrived early for both the rehearsal and ceremony and was very prepared for both. We absolutely loved our ceremony and were very thankful we found Jed to marry us!

    Jed was amazing. He was very organized and on top of things. He gave us many options for different things we could do or add to our ceremony to make it more personalized. He also doesn't just say the same speech for every wedding he does add advise that is unique to that couple.

    We were super lucky to have Jed, as our officiant last minute. Our first officiant was unable to officiate our ceremony and prior to telling me this, set up everything with Jed, thankfully so I would not freak out. Jed was great, he followed everything our other officiant and my husband and I had agreed upon so it was not another thing to worry about last minute. Jed was there on time for the rehearsal day and was very friendly and professional. He had a great sense of humor which was helpful on the wedding day, during the ceremony, to calm those nerves and it was exactly how my husband and I imagined our ceremony.
    All around my husband and I were so happy with having Jed officiate our ceremony and would highly recommend him to others.
    Thanks Jed!!!

    While my fiance and I were having our wedding in a church, but we weren't looking for a religious ceremony. He's an atheist and I'm an agnostic, but we wanted more than just a standard justice of the peace civil ceremony. After searching sites like WeddingWire and the Knot, I scheduled a meeting with Jed to go over our wishes for our ceremony. He read for us his service which was not so much religious but faith based, if that makes sense. It was a very thoughtful ceremony and we quickly decided he was the right person to perform our service.

    The wedding day went perfectly. The service was short and sweet and Jed ad-libbed a couple of comments that got big laughs from us and our guests. Jed attended our rehearsal the night before and it helped ensure a smooth ceremony. I very much recommend his services. He will work with you if you want a fancier service, but he's also very great if you're just looking for something simple.

    Jed was absolutely amazing and we are so glad we chose him to be our wedding officiant! My husband comes from a mixed religious background (Jewish & Catholic) and I am Catholic. We struggled to find a ceremony that honored both of our backgrounds and families, but still spoke to us and our relationship. Jed did an incredible job incorporating everything we were looking for in the ceremony and we couldn't have asked for anything more! He kept us calm and laughing and was a great friend to have along the way while planning our big day. We can't say enough wonderful things about Jed - working with him was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

    Jed Fortuna is an excellen officiant. We had gotten married last month on September 7th 2013. Jed had met with us to go over exactly what would be said, he emailed us a copy of his speech to make sure it was right and had asked us about our relationship to give a more personal touch in his readings. He showed up early for both the rehearsal and the wedding. He spoke very clearly and added funny comments within his speech about some of our adventures and funny experiences in our relationship that made our guests laugh. He was very professional and helped us through our big day. We would definately recommend Jed Fortuna to anyone. :)

    We had Jed as our Officiant back On April 13,2013. The guy is awesome. He sat down with us, asked us about ourselves and gave us some serious marriage advice. I love how he gave us a questionnaire to fill out to ask about how we met, how we felt about the exchanging of vows (read our own or have him help), what ritual we'd like to perform and made us feel like family instead of feeling stressed or pressured or more nervous then we already were. It's an exciting time to get married and he would crack a joke here or there to keep attention of our family and friends with serious tones too. He still checks in time to time to see how we're doing as a couple since we stayed in touch. I recommended him to a few friends and family he was an officiant too. He's awesome. Thank you again Jed.

    Jed is very personable. He was open to our suggestions and wishes and worked with us, to provide the ceremony that fit who we are and what we wanted as a couple and family.

    Jed is a great guy and very professional. My wife and I wanted a laid back wedding but also wanted it to be special, Jed did a great job of helping make that happen. I would recommend him to anyone!
