Book with J. Costello!
Jennifer Costello officiated our wedding in February of 2024. She started with getting to know us a little via a phone interview and a questionnaire. With that information she was able to craft a wonderfully personalized ceremony that included a greeting, an expression of intent, exchange of vows and rings. She told our story and weaved it seamlessly into a ceremony that while being non-religious and modern, was also timeless. She expertly cued us during the ceremony, and simultaneously disappeared into the background to let us experience our first few moments as a newly married couple. We highly recommend her services as a wedding officiant.Jennifer Costello officiated our wedding in February of 2024.

We loved working with Tara and Jenn!
We used J Costello Officiants for our wedding and had a wonderful experience! We met with Jenn several months before the wedding to discuss the ceremony script. She had tons of great ideas and examples to get us started and then helped us tailor the ceremony to be exactly what we wanted. Our officiant the day of the wedding was Tara and she was absolutely incredible! She made sure that the rehearsal ran smoothly and that our ceremony was personal and special. We were so happy with how our ceremony turned out; we can't recommend Jenn and Tara more highly!We used J Costello Officiants for our wedding and had a wonderful experience!

Perfect Wedding Officiant
Jenn was amazing to work with. She customized our ceremony to be exactly what we wanted. She answered all of our questions and even included our fur babies into the ceremony! We wanted a few readings and she provided great options to pick from. We would highly recommend her for anyone looking for an officiant!Jenn was amazing to work with.

Amazing to Work With!
We are so happy to have had Jenn part of our big day! From the very beginning, she was so involved and really got to know us as a couple. She really made the ceremony customized to us and had amazing suggestions for readings and our vows. Jenn kept in touch right up to the big day, even sending us reminders of when and how to get our marriage license. We could not have asked for a better officiant.

A Joy to Work With
Working with Jenn was an amazing experience. From the start, we fell in love with her style and attitude. She is so warm, patient, professional, and kind. She took the time to meet with us and get to know us as a couple. She gave us so many suggestions for the ceremony and seemed to know exactly what we needed. When she sent us the draft of our ceremony, my husband and I were in tears as she seemed to capture our relationship and transfer our emotions into words. As we neared closer to our wedding date, she frequently checked in with us and helped us throughout the wedding planning process. We are so thankful for her.
On the wedding day, she was incredibly professional and calm. There was an issue with the microphone, but she was amazing and did not miss a step. She directed us and she guided us throughout the ceremony. She was able to project her voice in a way that most guests did not even realize there was an issue with the microphone.

Jenn is awesome!
We had to find an officiant at the last minute for our wedding on 2/15/20, as ours had a family emergency and had to leave the state. Jennifer came to our rescue! She is amazing! Multiple packages to pick from. Excellent communication. She wrote a beautiful ceremony for us. She was very sweet and professional at the same time. She even put the boutonnieres on the guys! We HIGHLY recommend J. Costello Officiants!!We had to find an officiant at the last minute for our wedding on 2/15/20, as ours had a family emergency and had to leave the state.

Amazing Officiant
From the moment we met with Jennifer we knew that we wanted her to officiate our wedding. She is warm and friendly, she asks great questions to get to know us and our story, and she really listens and cares. Once we booked with her she emailed us the ceremony wording and worked with us to tailor the ceremony just to us. The night of the rehearsal she was calm and patient. The next day she married us and she was amazing! We highly recommend Jennifer, in fact we have a family member getting married soon, and she is having Jennifer officiate her wedding on our recommendation and we couldn’t be happier!From the moment we met with Jennifer we knew that we wanted her to officiate our wedding.

Wonderful Officiant!
Jennifer was wonderful to work with from start to the day of. Everything she wrote for us was beautiful, and we received many compliments from our guests about her vows. The fact that she is an English teacher made us feel even better about every word she had written. We had a handfasting ceremony during which she read a lovely traditional blessing to go along with it. My wife and I would recommend her services in a heartbeat to any couple who were looking for a wonderful officiant for their big day!Jennifer was wonderful to work with from start to the day of.

The ceremony itself went perfectly and could not have asked for anything more.

We wouldn't have had the best and most memorable wedding ceremony without Jenn. She made us feel so comfortable and confident in our decision from the very first meeting. When we first met with her she provided so many options and details on how to truly personalize and make our ceremony our own. Within a day she sent a draft of our ceremony. It had me in tears! It was absolutely perfect and we only requested a few minor changes. She made the changes so quick and we just felt so much better having our ceremony to look at throughout the wedding planning journey. She made sure to check in with us as we got closer to our big day. She did an outstanding job at our rehearsal making us feel comfortable and ready for the big day! She even did a great job answering the random questions from our wedding party :) Jenn took care of our marriage license and it was waiting for us when we got back from our honeymoon.

She was very responsive, easy to communicate with and super organized. That put us at ease and helped us feel confident that the ceremony was going to go well (and it did!) Thank you Jennifer!! Bonus: She pronounced pretty difficult to say parts of my name correctly!Jennifer was our wedding officiant and she was fantastic. She guided us for the entire ceremony planning process.

I would recommend using Jennifer to anyone around the Rochester area (our wedding was in Canandaigua so she does travel as well!. We are from out of town and it was so easy to plan with her exactly how our ceremony would go. She sent us multiple versions of our ceremony, and even recommendations for readings for my cousins. She attended our rehearsal so we felt comfortable with everything the night before and was there early for any questions my husband and I had. I believe she does many variations of ceremonies and we chose to have a non-denomination ceremony but she left it up to us on exactly how we wanted it to sound. She was very professional and even took and filed our marriage certificate for us. We couldn't have been happier for choosing her and would recommend her to anyone we know!I would recommend using Jennifer to anyone around the Rochester area (our wedding was in Canandaigua so she does travel as well!.

I actually found Jennifer on Craigslist. I was in sticker shock over the Officiant fees I was seeing. Jennifer is relatively new to officiating, but she was very professional, helpful and flexible. My husband and I ended up creating our ceremony ourselves and Jennifer was very open to that and provided helpful suggestions. She worked well with the wedding coordinator at our church, was on time, and was available to answer my questions. And her fee was very reasonable! Jennifer also took care of mailing our marriage license after the ceremony.I actually found Jennifer on Craigslist. I was in sticker shock over the Officiant fees I was seeing.
