I highly recommend Journeys of the Heart if you are looking for an officiant to marry you. They are prompt and professional, and finding an officiant who’s best fit went smoothly. My husband and I had a conference call with one of Journeys of the Heart officiant and didn't look any further. We had the opportunity to work with Diane Mina Weltman. I highly recommend her! She's very professional, caring, genuine, vibrant, and personable with a great sense of humor! She was very prompt in writing our ceremony and sending us drafts to edit. Not only does she get the job done to ensure customers have a perfect ceremony, but she also provides guidance. She's very knowledgeable, and you... -

Sara Sent on 03/18/2025Personalized Wedding Ceremony
We had an incredible experience with Susan at Journeys of the Heart throughout our wedding preparations and on our big day. From the start, she took the time to meet with us multiple times, truly getting to know us as a couple and listening to our story.
Brian and I wanted a personalized ceremony that reflected who we are, and Susan crafted something truly heartfelt and meaningful. She seamlessly incorporated the elements that mattered most to us—our dogs, Philadelphia sports, Disney, and lighthearted moments that captured our personalities. I especially appreciated how beautifully she wove in the Invisible String Theory and our Oathing Stone, making them feel like natural and integral parts of our ceremony.

Abby Sent on 12/07/2024We loved working with Steve Workman
My husband and I weren’t comfortable asking someone we knew to officiate our wedding, but it was still really important for us to have a personal, meaningful ceremony. Our wedding planner suggested finding an officiant with Journeys of the Heart and we were connected with Stephen Workman, who we immediately liked. From our first introduction email, Steve was warm, professional, and thoughtful. He helped craft a beautiful ceremony and really got to know my husband and I to create a memorable ceremony that spoke to us as a couple. He made suggestions on how to structure the ceremony and include various readings and traditions from each of our backgrounds. Our ceremony may have been the favorite part of our... -

Journeys of the Heart, and specifically Sara F., made our wedding fantastic. Sara was extremely easy to talk with, and her calm energy really helped us plan our ceremony, which turned out to be more spectacular that we could have imagined. Even before the ceremony, Sara brought calm energy to the day, and really connected with our attendees. -

Sarah Sent on 10/21/2024Heartfelt, Personalized Ceremony—Susan Harte Was Amazing!
Susan went above and beyond to give us a truly special wedding ceremony. She took the time to get to know us and our story, beautifully weaving it into the ceremony in such a meaningful way. Throughout the process, she provided helpful guidance on the marriage steps, making everything smooth and stress-free.
Our family was deeply touched by the personal and heartfelt ceremony—so many guests commented on how moving it was. Susan was a consummate professional, and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect officiant. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a warm, thoughtful, and professional officiant!

We are so grateful we chose Diane to officiate her ceremony. Diane took the time to meet with us in person and understand what is important to us on our wedding day. She also helped us craft a very personal and meaningful ceremony. Through our ceremony, we were able to ackowledge our family, share our story, and incorporate traditions. Our guests said that the ceremony was their favorite part of the day. -

Amanda Sent on 10/09/2024Charlie was Amazing!
We had Charlie Cooper officiate our wedding and he was perfect! We could not have asked for a better person- he fit in so well with both of our families. From the start he was very responsive, easy to talk to and was happy to answer all of our questions along the way. After our first call with him we knew he’d be a great fit. It felt like we had known him for years. He helped make our rehearsal/ceremony/wedding day as stress free as possible. We couldn’t recommend Charlie enough! -

Elise Sent on 10/07/2024Susanne Wilson is amazing!
My husband and I were married by Susanne Wilson of Journeys of the Heart on August 31, 2024. We have been at a loss of words since then with how incredible our day was. Susanne was truly a gift to find. She was unbelievably kind and caring, listening to every single word we said throughout the entire planning process. From the initial Zoom call, we knew she would be perfect for us. It is nerve wrecking to find someone you trust to officiate one of the most special days of your lives, but with Susanne, you’ll second guess why you were ever worried. She incorporated such important elements such as honoring our loved ones near, far, and no longer with us. Everything was so, so special. -

We had Jim H perform our ceremony and it was perfect in every way. He took his time to get to know us and told our love story in the most beautiful way. We couldn't have been any happier! Couldn't recommend Journeys of the Heart and Jim any more. Truly a wonderful experience. -

Erin Sent on 09/27/2024We found the best officiant through Journeys of the Heart!
Our officiant was Sara Francesconi and we couldn't have been happier! She was professional, listened to exactly what we wanted, and worked with us to create the ceremony of our dreams. A lot of people commented on how much they loved the ceremony and some of them thought that she was a friend of ours from before! She had a lot of great ideas and helped us make decisions about the ceremony. It was easy to receive the draft from here and give our feedback. On the day of the ceremony, she was on time and filed all of our ceremony paperwork quickly. She made us feel comfortable and made our ceremony memorable. I would highly recommend working with Sara or anyone from Journeys of the Heart! -

My husband and I are so happy we chose Journeys of hte Heart for our officiant and especially Kipp Gilmore-Clough. Kipp wrote the most beautiful reflection reading for our wedding ceremony. He was well-spoken, professional, and extremely kind. Our guests and even our vendors could not stop talking about how lovely it was, and how surprised they were that he did such a good job summarizing our relationship even though he had just met us once! Kipp took the time to meet with us and review a questionnaire about our story/relationship and put it into a ceremony script that had the perfect balance of humor and seriousness. We also wanted to incorporate some religious aspects for our families and Kipp helped us do just that. Would highly recommend Journeys of the Heat and Kipp to any future bride & groom! -

We had the pleasure of working with Charlie Cooper as our officiant. He is the BEST. He went out of his way to meet with us in person to get to know us and what we wanted our wedding day to look like. He made us feel like we had known him for a long time. Charlie was always very punctual in his responses and made us feel at ease as our special day got closer and details were getting narrowed down.
We would recommend Charlie and his company a million times over!! -

Doris Sent on 08/01/2024Great Officiant!
Our officiant was Charlie Cooper, and I can't recommend him enough. He was so great and easy to work with. He was really kind and took time to know us as a couple so that he could incorporate tidbits about us in his statement. He was incredibly professional and kind. He was also super helpful with the wedding certificate - sending it in to the state (PA) so that we could later have my name changed. It saved us a step! Charlie is amazing and I can't recommend him enough! I highly recommend him to all brides! -

Maura from Journeys of the Heart was our officiant for our wedding at the Down Town Club this past May. We could not have had a better experience! Maura was exceptionally kind and committed to making our ceremony as authentic to us as possible. After the ceremony concluded, we had so many people come up to us and say that it was one of the best and most personal wedding ceremonies they had ever seen. We had tons of questions for Maura along the way, and she was incredibly patient with us and always went the extra mile to make sure we felt comfortable about our plans going into the big day. Can't recommend Maura and Journeys of the Heart enough! -

Working with Maria was truly a remarkable experience! She helped us customize an intimate wedding ceremony that reflected our values, cultures, and unique backgrounds. As an interracial and interfaith couple, we wanted to make sure that our ceremony was a true reflection of us as individuals and of the life we are creating together as we begin our marriage. Thank you for helping us bring our dream ceremony to life, Maria! -

Kyra Sent on 04/21/2024Great experience working with Jim!
We had an excellent experience working with Journeys of the Heart. We worked with Jim Haley for our wedding and it was truly a pleasure. He was great to communicate with, well prepared, and we had full confidence throughout the process that everything would turn out great. Through the process he used to craft our ceremony, he had a great understanding of our relationship and personalities, and it was reflected on our wedding day. Jim was extremely kind and easy to work with and made preparing for our wedding ceremony very enjoyable. We have had a number of our guests tell us how our beautiful our ceremony was. Would highly recommend Journeys, and especially Jim! -

We have nothing but wonderful things to say about our experience with journeys of the heart specifically with our officiant Diane W! Our venue recommend this company and when reading the officiants reviews we knew we really wanted Diane. The others sounded fantastic too, but Diane was just a perfect fit for us! We set up our meeting with her and it was just smooth sailing from that point on. She was easy to talk to, always open for questions and helped ease some nerves we may have had. She had wonderful advice and on our wedding day made us feel so loved and we knew we were in great hands. Even after you’re married she is still there... -

Heidi was amazing! She crafted such a beautiful ceremony, and encouraged us to express our love in a very personal and heartfelt ceremony. Many guests found us to express that they were brought to tears and felt that it was the best wedding ceremony they’ve ever attended. -

Susan from Journeys of the Heart did a wonderful job with our wedding ceremony. She was thorough and organized in her preparation, giving us ample time to complete questionnaires & phone calls to get to know us and what we wanted out of our ceremony. She also helped us stay on track with getting our license, providing us with links for virtual appointments and even printing / bringing the license to the ceremony. She helped us express our thoughts/ feelings in a way that felt genuine and appropriate. We received many compliments on how personal and heartfelt the ceremony was, and that was largely due to Susan's ability to listen to us and craft the ceremony that we hoped for. It was perfect! -

We had the absolute best experience with Journeys of the Heart. We chose Maura to be our officiant and she was so amazing to work with throughout our whole planning process!! She is very professional, sweet, and made us feel at ease through everything but especially on our wedding day. She made our ceremony so special and meaningful with her words and calming presence. We got so many comments from our guests telling us how beautiful the entire ceremony was and how touched they were. We cannot thank Maura enough for being such a big part of our planning process and wedding day, it would not have been possible without her. We highly recommend Journeys of the Heart for... -

My husband and I had the pleasure to work with Kipp Gilmore-Clough through Journeys of the heart. Kipp really tailored our ceremony to really reflect our relationship and background. Our ceremony and vows were one of my favorite memories of the day. So many guests commented as well and said it was one of the best ceremonies they've experienced. And many guests assumed Kipp was someone we had known for a long time since he really seemed to know us. Thank you Kipp and Journeys of the heart for making our day meaningful and special! -
