  Wedding 3/14/25

  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 will not have to worry about anything when it comes to obtaining your marriage license because she will lead you in the right direction. Leading up to my wedding day, she made me feel very comfortable. Our ceremony went well, was beautiful, and was the most memorable event because of her. Our guests raved about how great and funny Diane was during our ceremony. If you decide to go with Journeys of the Heart and the officiant Diane Weltman, you will not regret it! My husband and I were stress-free when it came to our wedding ceremony. 😊

  Personalized, Thoughtful, Peaceful, Filled with Love

  Sara was truly one of the most special parts of our wedding day. From the moment we started working with her, it was clear how thoughtful, intentional, and genuinely invested she was in making our ceremony meaningful and personal. She took the time to really get to know us and crafted a ceremony that felt completely authentic to our relationship.
  
  On the wedding day, she was absolutely incredible. She delivered our ceremony with so much warmth, sincerity, and grace that it honestly felt like someone who had known us for years was speaking. So many of our guests came up to us afterward asking, “Who was your officiant?!” and saying how beautiful and personal the ceremony was. Several people even assumed she must have been a close friend or family member because of how naturally and thoughtfully she spoke about us.
  
  Sara created such a special atmosphere and set the tone for the entire day. We will always remember how meaningful that moment felt, and we are so grateful she was the one who married us. If you are looking for an officiant who truly cares and will make your ceremony unforgettable, Sara is the person you want.

  Made the process so easy

  We worked with Stephen Workman for our wedding and he was amazing! He made the process stress-free from leading up to the wedding to the day of and even after the day. He handled all of the logistics with the marriage license and put together such a beautiful ceremony for us.

  A Timeless Ceremony - A perfect blend of traditional and modern

  We are thrilled with our choice and couldn't be happier that we got to work with Journerys of the Heart. Our officiant, Stephen Workman, did a fantastic job in helping us plan/curate a wedding ceremony that felt like us but still held on to those traditional key moments. Stephen was extremely professional and did everything right each step of the way. We highly recommend booking Journeys of the Heart for your wedding ceremony.

  Exceptional Officiant

  We used Journeys of the Heart to select our officiant, Stephen Workman. Stephen was EXCELLENT. He was thorough, caring, and professional. He will really make sure your ceremony is special, specific, and tailored to you. Many of our guests commented on how much they loved the ceremony and Stephen. Compliments to him! We could not have been happier! Thank you Stephen and Journeys of the Heart!

  Amazing experience at our Love Park Wedding

  Stephen and Susan were absolutely wonderful to work with! We used Journeys of the Heart for "Wedding Wednesdays" at Love Park in Philadelphia. They answered all our questions about the ceremony and logistics ahead of time, which really helped ease our nerves before the big day. The ceremony was short, sweet, and beautiful. We chose to share our wedding vows privately before the ceremony, but even without our personalized vows the script that Stephen used for our ceremony was heartfelt and touching. Stephen and Susan made our day so special and we had an amazing experience with them!

  Fantastic Wedding Officiant!

  We got so lucky working with Jim Haley! He was recommended to us by a family friend who thought we would be a good match, and he was the perfect match. Jim spent a lot of time getting to know us personally in person and virtually, and gave us great tips and advice for curating a special ceremony with us. It was a team effort that turned into a beautiful, meaningful and memorable ceremony for everyone! Working with journeys was nothing short of easy and flexible. We appreciated their knowledge and ability to build a ceremony that matched the individuals it reflected. 10/10 recommend working with Journeys for any special event!!

  Easiest Yes for a Wedding Vendor!

  We had Jim Haley officiate our wedding on 9/19/2025 at Appleford Estate. Jim was easily one of the best wedding vendors we had for our wedding. He was incredibly kind, calm, and easygoing, yet was very organized and prompt if my husband and I ever needed anything! Having Jim allowed us to cruise through the ceremony without a stress or worry. He even handled ceremony procession and orchestrating talking to our readers ahead of time. We are so blessed to have had Jim there up at the alter for our wedding, he set the tone for a very wonderful and loving day!

  Wonderful experience!

  From the start, Journeys of the Heart was very responsive and warm in even their initial email communication with us. We decided to work with Susan Harte, who is incredibly communicative and kind. She helped us through the entire process (marriage license, walking us through the ceremony, how to get started with writing our vows), and she provided so many helpful resources for us. She crafted her ceremony speech so well, and she's such a wonderful speaker. She's so warm, so friendly, and on the day of, she did such a good job reminding me that my wedding day is about celebrating love, and it's not just all about logistics (I think she got the sense that I was getting really anxious about time management of the wedding, and she really got my head in the right space before the ceremony started). She's the best!

  Jim Haley, 6/20/2025

  We got married on 6/20/25 and had the privilege of having Jim Haley officiate the wedding. He was amazing! Jim’s professionalism, compassion, and genuine kindness made the process extremely easy and stress-free. From Day 1, it was obvious that he truly cares about putting together the perfect ceremony for the specific couple. He was always quick to respond to our questions, and was always flexible if we had any tweaks or changes that we wanted to make. He was truly a pleasure to work with, and he created and officiated a perfect ceremony for us. Thank you Jim! We couldn’t be more thankful.

  Excellent!

  Stephen Workman was extremely professional in his approach to the process. He listened to our viewpoints and took them into consideration. As a result, we received many compliments on the warmth and efficiency of the ceremony overall.

  Jim H was the best!

  We had the pleasure of working with Jim as our officiant for our wedding. He did a wonderful job. The ceremony was so thoughtful and precise and described our relationship perfectly. He put a lot of time and effort into getting to know my husband and I and even met us for coffee to go over our ceremony and make sure everything was perfect. We couldn’t recommend him enough. He put together a wedding binder for us and made the process extremely easy. 12/10

  Steve Workman guided us through creating a heartfelt and personalized wedding ceremony that was an amazing reflection of who we are as a couple. His warmth, calm, and sincere approach helped with our nerves with being the center of attention. Highly highly recommend asking for Steve as your officiant!

  Journeys of the heart

  I wanted to leave this review for Jim Haley. He was our officiant for my husband and I’s wedding on May 10th 2025!!!!! He did AMAZING. He was so professional and sweet. He was timely with everything and very informative. He made my husband and I feel at ease throughout the whole process. The ceremony he created was absolutely beautiful and stunning. He spoke very well and even stepped away for our first kiss as husband and wife ;). We cannot recommend him enough!

  Jim was the best officiant

  Our initial choice for an officiant didn't pan out, but our wedding planner suggested Journeys of the Heart, specifically Jim Haley. Fortunately, he was available on our wedding date. From our very first phone conversation, we knew we wanted to work with Jim for our ceremony. Meeting him in person shortly thereafter reaffirmed that we had indeed made the right decision.
  
  Jim demonstrated professionalism, expertise, warmth, and a sense of humor, making him an exceptional partner in this process. He posed insightful questions that helped shape a ceremony that truly reflected who my husband and I are as a couple.
  He even went out of his way to translate a few parts of our ceremony for my Spanish speaking family members and that meant so much to me .
  
  Thank you immensely for everything you've done for us, Jim. We can't recommend you highly enough!
  
  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

  Personalized 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.
  
  Susan’s thoughtfulness and creativity made our ceremony unique and deeply personal. She was also incredibly responsive via email and text, which was invaluable during the stressful wedding planning process. After our ceremony, so many of our family members and friends told us how wonderful and heartfelt it was—they even thought Susan was someone we had known for years! 😊
  
  If you’re looking for someone to create a meaningful, personalized, and unforgettable ceremony, I wholeheartedly recommend Susan. She will bring warmth, creativity, and a genuine connection to your special day.

  We 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 wedding and Steve is to thank for that! He also made the process of getting a wedding license straightforward and was on top of the technicalities of getting married and mailing the wedding certificate. It may not sound like a big deal, but when there are 1,000 things going on, it was a relief to trust he was on top of the actual legal steps!
  
  I highly recommend working with Steve Workman from Journeys of the Heart.

  Sara F. - The Best Officiant.

  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.

  Wedding experience

  We had the best experience with Kipp. His attention to detail was incredible. He had us at ease from the first virtual call. He had everything scripted out but gave us plenty of options. We were looking for a smaller ceremony and it was perfect. He also really connected with people.

  Heartfelt, 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!

  Personal, meaningful ceremony

  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.

  Charlie 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!

  Susanne 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.

  Wedding Ceremony

  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.

  We 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!

  Amazing Ceremony!

  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!

  Perfection!

  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!!

  Great 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!

  Amazing experience!

  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!

  Customized Ceremony of Our Dreams

  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!

  April Wedding

  I was referred the company from a coworker of mine who used them for her wedding. She loved Jim Haley and recommended I ask for him for our wedding. THANKFULLY he was available! The fee wasn’t bad and the process was smooth. Jim is so kind. We did a zoom call in the beginning and my husband and I enjoyed talking to him. Jim was so personable during the initial conversation and through the entire process. I kept thanking my coworker for recommending him. The process for our marriage license was headache free. He handled it all and we received in the mail!!! Thank you Journeys of the Heart and thank you soooooo much Jim! We appreciate everything you did for us!

  Great 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!

  Beautiful & Meaningful Ceremony Thanks to Eve!

  Eve Wenger officiated our wedding in August of 2023. When we first met via Zoom we felt like we were speaking with a family friend - she was personable, patient, and very easy to talk to. It was clear that she was genuinely interested in getting to know us in order to help arrange our ceremony. We worked closely with her to develop a highly personalized and meaningful wedding ceremony that was nothing short of magnificent for us. She had many ceremony examples, readings, and wordings to share with us and was also very open to hearing what we wanted to include (and even accommodated some last minute edits). Our ceremony was not explicitly religious, but included a few meaningful Jewish traditions and practices, which Eve helped to execute perfectly (so well that some of our guests assumed she was a rabbi). She arrived on time, was a wonderful speaker, and had a genuine, calm, and warm presence that felt seamless with the rest of our friends and family. We were really touched by the booklet she put together for us with a copy of our ceremony. We are so happy with how our ceremony turned out and cannot recommend Eve enough.

  Journeys from the Heart made our Wedding Ceremony

  I can't say enough good things about this vendor. We worked with Jim Haley for our December wedding and it was truly a pleasure. We felt as though he was dedicated to getting to know both my husband and I and to understand our relationship/love story and it was reflected on our wedding day. Jim was extremely kind and easy to work with and made this part of our. wedding planning truly seamless. We have numerous guests tell us how our beautiful our ceremony was. Can't say enough great things-- would highly recommend the company but especially Jim!

  Susan is simply the best!

  Susan Harte was truly such a special part of our engagement, planning process and wedding day. She checked in with us and remembered small details about the day to day things we enjoyed. Susan met with us throughout the planning process to craft a ceremony that was unique to us and our love story. She is kind, thoughtful and a joy to speak to. We can’t recommend her or Journeys of the Heart enough!

  Brian was perfect!

  We loved Brian - was there when we needed/wanted him and in the background when he wasn't (in a good way). Made the focus about us and he was simply there to make it better.
  A Zoom call before to go over everything - reviewed our vows etc and gave great feedback.

  Smooth process from beginning to end!

  Sara Francesconi officiated our wedding and we had a seamless process with her from the very beginning! Upon meeting Sara, it was evident that she is a warm and caring person and an avid listener. She was very responsive to our requests of a non-religious ceremony and use of gender-inclusive language. Her first draft of the ceremony was nearly perfect and she was so open to any and all revisions. The love story portion of the ceremony captured us perfectly. Sara would also periodically check-in with us about how the ceremony was sitting with us and it was so, so appreciated. On the wedding day, she spoke with such eloquence that people kept coming up to say what a beautiful ceremony it was - someone even said she was almost angelic! If you're looking for an officiant - go with Sara!

  A Magical Ceremony

  Journey's of the Heart was a referral from our venue (The Manor House) and we loved working with our officiant, Kipp! From our first call we felt so comfortable and connected to him, you could tell he cared about his work for weddings. We filled out a questionnaire so he could get to know us and with that he wrote a wonderful story. The day of was hectic but he showed up with a smile and made us feel so at ease. During the ceremony I would turn to him and he had the biggest smile on his face. Our guests kept giving us compliments on how much they loved Kipp! We couldn't have been happier!

  Journeys of the heart - Diane

  Diane was our officiant for our wedding in October 2023. From the get-go, Diane was very organized. She made the whole experience seamless. She is kind and funny. She was attentive to our needs. Very responsive with any questions we had. We weren’t sure what kind of ceremony we were looking for, but she walked us through our own tailored plan with ease.
  The guests raved about the ceremony.
  We had high hopes, but Diane exceeded them.
  We would recommend her a thousand times over!

  Susan was perfect from the beginning until the final day!! We knew immediately after talking with her that she embodied the exact vision that we sought in our ceremony. During our Wedding she was very professional, easy-going, romantic and comedic when need be. We couldn't be happier with our decision.

  Absolutely Wonderful

  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 for you with answering any questions you may have and if changing your last name she helps keep you on track! We can’t thank her enough!! ~ The Sheaffer’s

  Fantastic Experience

  We worked with Maura for our wedding day. Everything was smooth and effortless since our first meeting with her. She was easy to communicate with via email, zoom, and in person. We were able to personalize not only our vows but our entire ceremony with her help. She made it simple to collaborate and pulled it all together elegantly. Her calm yet engaging demeanor on our special day was so relaxing - there was no need to stress! She was professional, kind, and fun! Could not recommend her and Journeys of the Heart enough.

  Personalized & Helpful

  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!

  Wedding ceremony officiant - Susanne Wilson

  Susanne was incredible as our ceremony officiant. Matt and I were married on September 15th. Susanne was very kind and accommodating, and helped ease our nerves during our ceremony planning process by helping make it a fun and creative time for us. She made sure to include everything we wanted in our ceremony and really helped to make it just lovely. We would absolutely recommend Susanne and journeys of the heart for anyone who is wedding planning!

  We HIGHLY Recommend Maura Bernt

  We got married on May 6th, 2023 at Water Works in Philadelphia. I'm Jewish and my now husband is Catholic. Neither of us are particularly religious, but we wanted to honor traditions from both of our religions and upbringings. We were in search of a nondenominational wedding officiant, but we didn't want to ask a family or friend. We wanted a professional who does wedding ceremonies often and is comfortable leading one, especially one for an interfaith couple. Cescaphe put us in touch with Journeys of the Heart and it was so simple from the very first email exchange. We got to read many bios of wedding officiants who work for the company and we settled on Maura Bernt. We had an initial Zoom call with Maura to see if it would be a good fit, which it was! Maura was excellent from that first call. She listened to us as we described exactly what we wanted to do and she put together the most perfect ceremony for us with many rounds of edits and changes. She sent us readings from both the old and new testament to choose from, incorporated personal details from our "love story" form that we filled out for her, and honored loved ones who couldn't be present. She made deciding on our vows super easy and took any and all pressure off of us leading up to and during the ceremony. We didn't have to remember to do anything as she quietly cued us when we had to repeat lines, etc. We got many compliments for guests regarding how much they loved our ceremony. Maura allowed us to make some last minute adjustments, was always very responsive in our communications, and she was flexible throughout the process. She even read our ketubah in front of our family and bridal party prior to the ceremony, which is something a rabbi typically does. We really can't say enough about Maura and our experience with Journeys of the Heart!

  We loved working with Journeys of the Heart! The team was super responsive and quick to answer our questions and match us with an officiant. Once we connected with our officiant Susan, she took the time to listen to what we were looking for and created a custom ceremony that suited our values and beliefs. Seamless experience!

  Brian Dixon from Journeys of the Heart was the best officiant we could have asked for!

  Brian was extremely flexible and made sure to check with us about everything. He sent us the script ahead of time for us to make changes, and didn't add anything we didn't approve. He made the entire process so easy, we would absolutely recommend him and Journeys of the Heart to anyone.

  Highly Recommend! Beautiful Ceremony

  Sara was such a pleasure to work with; from the very start we had such a nice experience and she helped make the overall process so easy for us! We got numerous compliments from family and friends about how beautiful the ceremony was and what a wonderful job our officiant did; it truly all came together and big thank you to Sara in her role helping make our day special. We wanted a personal ceremony that truly represented us as a couple and Sara helped us to accomplish that. She truly listened to us and wrote a beautiful ceremony; she has a calming presence that shines through, helping us feel super relaxed during our ceremony. I would highly recommend Sara and Journeys of the heart!

  Beautifully written and delivered ceremony!

  We worked with Diane Mina Weltman for our wedding, and we would definitely recommend her! She was so warm and friendly. She made the process so easy! And the ceremony she wrote was beautiful and had a lot of comic relief (which we requested and are fans of)! Everyone in our families told us throughout the day how beautiful and heartfelt our ceremony was. I would definitely recommend Diane to friends and family looking for an officiant!

  Personalized, Thoughtful, True to Us

  For our ceremony we worked with Susan Harte from Journeys of the Heat and she was amazing. She asked great questions to get to know us and craft a beautiful personalized ceremony. We appreciated her thoughtfulness to small details from our story. Having her guidance during this journey was extremely comforting. And scheduling meetings with her was also very easy and flexible. I would highly recommend Susan to any future couple.

  The Best Officiant We Could Have Asked For

  Journeys of the Heart is an incredible company to find a wedding officiant!
  
  My husband and I completed a questionnaire that matched us up with a few officiants and we ultimately went with Diane Weltman. She could not have been more perfect as our officiant. Our initial Zoom consultation with her was one that we'll remember. Besides going through the logistics and what is involved in the planning process, we really got to know Diane on a personal level and validated even further that she was a perfect match for us.
  
  The pricing was very transparent, and Diane kept a very organized timeline that did not overwhelm the wedding planning process whatsoever. Every email she sent had such kind words and her email that she sent to us the week of the wedding gave such kind and loving advice that it really put me at ease and helped me relax in getting last minute wedding details settled. Writing our ceremony draft was very easy and Diane was very flexible in making sure our ceremony was absolutely perfect. She made my husband and I the driving force in writing our ceremony and she was merely a guide.
  
  The ceremony itself was not a traditional ceremony. My husband and I stood at the altar as Diane talked in front of us to the guests as she went through our love story. She kept our guests engaged and even made some shed a few happy tears. She eventually went to the traditional spot when we performed our ritual and exchanged rings.
  
  Alot of guests came up to us saying how Diane was an absolute delight and how they really enjoyed the ceremony and how non-traditional it was. My husband and I couldn't agree more.
  
  We will always remember Diane and what she did for us. Thank you so much!

  Best Officiant!

  Kipp Gilmore-Clough was our officiant and we had a phenomenal experience with him! He was very patient, detailed, and kind throughout our wedding planning process. He made the time to get to know us and answer any questions we had. He arrived to our venue early the day of our wedding and made sure we were prepared for the ceremony. We received so many compliments after the ceremony and many guests asked how long we had know Kipp because of the special details he included in the ceremony. Thank you Kipp and Journeys of The Heart!

  BEST officiant ever!!!

  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 your officiant, but most importantly we would like to recommend Maura individually for how amazing she is! Thank you so much again!! :)

  A Memorable Ceremony

  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!

  Loved our Officiant!

  We hired Sara Francesconi from Journeys of the Heart on short notice after our original officiant fell through. She made the whole process so easy - she walked us through all of our options, made sure the ceremony was exactly what we wanted, and even talked us through what to do for the marriage license & changing my name. The ceremony she put together was beautiful, she was prompt, and just a joy to work with. Thank you Sara!

  A Perfect Choice

  
  From the moment we first met and spoke to Jim Haley about the vision of our wedding, we knew he was the person to share out story. His follow-up, guidance, support, patience and compassion were truly amazing throughout the entire process, especially as we had to reschedule our wedding multiple times. Jim went above and beyond to take the time to get to know us on a more personal level and it really showed during our ceremony. It seemed as if we’d known him forever as we listened to him tell our story. We received countless compliments about how intimate and personal our ceremony was and how much everyone enjoyed it. Jim made us feel comfortable throughout which especially helped ease our nerves and anxiousness the day of our wedding. He made our day more special than we could’ve ever imagined and would highly recommend him.

  My goodness - the perfection!

  We worked with Susanne Wilson and we cannot say nearly enough amazing things about her! She was responsive and made sure we video called since we couldn't meet in person. She was flexible to my now husband's super busy schedule but the day of was just perfection! The ceremony was so focused on the equality between us and was just so sweet. It even made my husband cry which was amazing! it was so sweet and had everyone feeling the love for sure!

  Non Denomination Wedding

  We wanted a non denemoninational wedding and we definately got one! Maria was extremely helpful every step of the way both with the personalisation of the ceremony script and other general wedding inquiries. We couldn't have a more heartwarming officiant. I really felt this was OUR wedding and she told OUR story.

  Memorable Experience, Beautiful Ceremony!

  From the moment my husband and I got on the phone and heard Susanne Wilson's voice, we knew that we had found our match. Both Susanne and Journeys was recommended to us by our venue, without a beat of hesitation, after we described exactly what we wanted from our ceremony. We met once or twice prior to the wedding, both by phone and Zoom (this was still during COVID times...) and we were able to discuss everything we wanted to see for the beginning of our special day, as well as the start to the next chapter in our lives. After a two hour long consultation, filled with stories and tons of laughter, Susanne was able to take what we gave her and make it into a ceremony remembered not just by my husband and myself but by every one of our guests. Susanne is more than just our officiant but also a dear friend, one we will forever cherish. Thank you for everything!

  Jim was the best!

  Journeys of the heart was recommended by our venue. I was able to go on their website and look through their officiants. We ultimately chose Jim Haley and he was the perfect fit! Due to Covid we had our first meeting via Zoom, where he got to know us. He was able to add whatever we wanted to make the ceremony very personal. I couldn't have asked for a better person to do our wedding. There were three tiers you could choose from for your wedding and we chose the Diamond package which was the lowest package but included everything we wanted! I would highly recommend Jim to do your ceremony. He even hung out after the ceremony and was chatting with guest at cocktail hour!

  Beautiful, Personalized Service

  We can’t say enough about our lovely wedding officiant, Maura Bernt. From the moment we met her online, to each email interaction and finally to our ceremony, Maura was kind, compassionate and very easy to work with. She warmly told our story, welcomed our family and calmed our nerves. I contacted her several times with tweaks and suggestions and she took every one of them to heart. Maura is a delight. Had she not been our officiant, we would’ve been honored to have her as a guest.

  Journeys Made the Custom Ceremony of Our Dreams!

  Journeys was fantastic to work with. Jim Haley in particular was a fantastic partner to help make our custom wedding ceremony spectacular. When we first reached out to Jim we did not have a clear vision on what our non-denominational ceremony might look like. Jim guided us through the process and provided us with readings, traditions, and rituals that might fit with our vision. In addition, Jim spent the time to get to know us which he included in the ceremony script. Many of our guests said the ceremony was the most lovely and beautiful that they have ever seen.

  Personal and reverent

  We were nervous about selecting an officiant as we were an interfaith marriage interesting in ensuring both of us and our families would be represented somehow. We were so happy to find Debby Rickards. She was the perfect officiant for us and worked with us to customize our ceremony. We felt it was personalized and reverent to both traditions and families. We could not have asked for more. Many guests said it was the best ceremony they ever witnessed!

  Easy, exciting, fun!

  My wife and I worked with Debby Rickards from Journeys of the Heart and the experience was wonderful. We wanted a predominantly non-religious/nondenominational ceremony that also showed love and respect for each other's different backgrounds (Jewish bride, Catholic groom). To say we worried about whether we could accomplish this is an understatement. Journeys of the Heart connected us with Debby and she made the entire process of planning a ceremony easy, exciting, and fun. Debby took the time to get to know us, our story, and our expectations and helped create a beautiful ceremony that both of our families raved about. Debby guided us through the planning process and made us feel like VIP clients. She was available for questions/concerns leading up to the wedding and did an amazing job on our wedding day! She even checked in on us afterwards to provide information about our marriage license and to address any other questions/concerns we may have had. My wife and I can't say enough good things about Debby and highly recommend her!

  Highly recommend

  We booked Diane Mina-Weltman from Journeys of the Heart as our wedding officiant. We chose Diane after meeting with a few officiants because she was so warm and we liked her ideas for different options for the ceremony. Once we booked her, the process was very smooth. She always made it easy for us to know what needed to be done and when, while always being flexible. Through her process Diane is able to get to know you and she does a wonderful job bringing everything together to create a ceremony that reflects you two as a couple. She was a source of calm throughout wedding planning, I always enjoyed the tone of her emails and her warm, calming nature. She made herself available to discuss questions anytime we needed it. I had a lot of anxiety about being the center of attention and the ceremony was a big source of nerves. Diane made it clear that she was there to help us feel comfortable and she provided different options for the ceremony, which we utilized and it really helped ease my concerns. On the wedding day itself she was great: on time, friendly, excited, helpful, and ready. She helped us through everything and I was able to put my full trust in her while I was full of nervous energy. I can say we really enjoyed our ceremony. It was so special and that is thanks to Diane. We received so many compliments on our ceremony from our guests - they all loved how personal it was to our story, asked if they could see a copy afterward to hear it again, and many people thought she must have known us a long time. If you're considering booking Journeys of the Heart, I would highly recommend it. And if you can meet Diane you will see for yourself what a wonderful person she is!

  Perfect Wedding Ceremony

  Normandy Farm in Blue Bell, PA recommended Journeys of the Heart for our wedding ceremony. They were professional, easy to work with and connected us with a wonderful officiant, Jim Haley. He wrote us a beautiful, personalized ceremony that was perfect for our wedding. We had a fantastic time working with him, and would highly recommend using him and his team for anyone looking for an officiant for their ceremony.

  Fantastic!

  Kevin Barr with Journeys of the Heart was wonderful! He communicated often and you could tell he wanted to make the ceremony perfect for us as a couple. He provided great insights into the order of the ceremony, gave us recommendations for readings and rituals, and was quick to respond to emails. We received a first draft of the ceremony, which we were able to read over and make changes. We wanted to shorten it because we were having a June ceremony and were worried about the heat. Kevin had no problems with this and made the changes exactly as we asked. Meet with Kevin and you will know he is a genuine person who will put everything into your day! We highly recommend Kevin and Journeys of the Heart!

  My wife and I are extremely grateful that Brian was our officiant for our wedding day. He handled all the small mishaps, from the microphone not working to the repeated airplanes buzzing by, with poise and professionalism. It was truly a special day for us both and it was only enhanced by Journeys of the Heart's services. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

  Jim H. from Journeys of the Heart was such a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend him and the Journeys of the Heart team to anyone looking for an officiant. Seriously I am going to suggest to my brother and his fiance to use them if they don't have anyone in mind already. By the end of the planning process Jim H. felt like a member of our family. He took the time to get to know us and created a beautiful ceremony for us. I was never worried about the ceremony cause I knew it was on good hands. Can't say enough good things about him- highly recommend!!!

  The officiants you need!

  We hired Diane Weltman from Journeys of the Heart as our officiant (although we had great interactions with others from Journeys too!). She is the officiant you need — kind and easy to communicate with from first meeting, through writing the ceremony, right through the big day. Diane helped set a warm and calming tone to our ceremony - we were more nervous thinking about the wedding ahead of time than being up there in front of everyone, and that's a great reflection of Diane. The ceremony was well-crafted down to the last sentence, but still sounded warm and natural on the day of our wedding - some great ad-libbing too! Diane's a pro!

  Wonderful experience!

  We could not be happier with our experience with Journeys of the Heart. We first learned of Journeys at a friend’s wedding and were so impressed with the thoughtfulness and professionalism during the ceremony that we immediately looked into booking them for our own wedding. We worked with Jim Haley for our March 5th 2022 wedding and we were thrilled with how our ceremony came together. The initial communication with Journeys and Jim was very efficient, timely and thoughtful. When we met with Jim to start organizing our ceremony, we felt even more confident in our decision. Jim listened to all of our thoughts and somewhat non-traditional ideas and he managed to organize them into a beautiful ceremony. He made the process so easy and he was a pleasure to work with. We had several people tell us how wonderful the ceremony was and we truly feel it was the perfect start to our wedding celebration and marriage.

  Jim R. was the best!!

  If you're looking for an officiant that feels like they're part of your family, then you must book with Jim R. Jim was the absolute best, organized, and flexible with our planning (and re-planning) due to COVID-19. With him, we didnt have to stress or worry about our ceremony. He captured our love story perfectly - to the point where our friends and family couldn't believe we found him online! Thank you Jim, you were a pleasure to work with!

  Absolutely amazing officiant and vendor

  We had the honor of working with Susanne Wilson from journeys of the heart. To say the least, this woman made our wedding ceremony unique, beautiful, special and truly our own. We worked with Susanne for approximately 2 1/2 years before our wedding. Within that time she was much more than just our officiant, as she really grew to understand who were were individually but also as a couple. She truly cared about every single detail that we wanted to include in our ceremony. We were extremely nervous about planning our wedding ceremony because we had no idea where to start. Susanne was excellent at providing examples and suggestions of where certain pieces of writing and rituals would be the best place. We cannot thank her enough for the fantastic job that she did. Journeys of the heart, thank you so much for setting us up with an outstanding officiant and more importantly an amazing person.

  Abby/ Corey Wedding on 6/26/21

  Diane Weltman was the officiant at my daughter's wedding. She took the time to get to know the couple, what made them connect, and their wishes. The ceremony was professionally structured by Diane, but weaved with personal stories that created and rituals that solidify the union. Diane is quick witted, spontaneous, sensitive, and warm.

  Diane Mina Weltman

  As with many weddings in the last two years, ours was very unconventional. Having Diane help us through the process made every step stress-free and enjoyable! We loved how she took the time to get to know our love story and intertwined it into her readings on our special day. Since our wedding day, we have received continuous compliments from our guests about Diane’s work. Her love for what she does was palpable and evident throughout our ceremony. We highly recommend Diane to make your special day absolutely perfect.

  Debby is Wonderful!

  We worked with Debby R from Journey's of the Heart and we can't recommend her enough! She was SO kind, professional, sweet and polite! We had a zoom call with her to go over our ceremony, and she created something that was so personal and beautiful! We were able to work hand in hand with her to create a ceremony that matched us perfectly. She also was very responsive through email and checked in often. Highly recommend!

  Wonderful Personal Ceremony

  Journeys of the Heart made it easy for us to find an officiant that we connected with, and who we could trust to expertly take care of our ceremony and marriage license! We worked with Stephen Workman, and after meeting with him virtually and providing some background on ourselves and our values, he created a truly heartfelt ceremony that really embodied our relationship.
  
  Steve provided us with opportunity to review and tweak the ceremony transcript, and gave us lots of different recommendations to help us select what type of vows and readings to include. On the day of, he was timely and flexible, and the ceremony had nearly every guest in tears.
  
  We initially had wanted to have a family member officiate our wedding, but we are SO glad that we went with an expert like Stephen and Journeys of the Heart instead.

  You Won't Regret It!

  My husband and I decided to go through Journeys of the Heart for our wedding ceremony. After reading all of the officiants' bios, we decided on Jim Haley. I am SO glad we did. Jim takes so much pride and care in the work that he does and it really shoes. We can't thank him enough! From the beginning, Jim made both of us feel so comfortable and confident that our ceremony would be heartfelt and uniquely our own.
  The ceremony was absolutely perfect and no one could stop talking about it during the reception!

  Diana Weltman was amazing!

  Our wedding was in October 2021, and Diane Weltman from Journeys of the Heart was our officiant. We didn't know what to expect with officiant services, and originally thought we wanted family to do this job. We are so glad we hired a professional. Diane was warm, kind, and had a ton of ideas for our ceremony. She was patient through the process of buiding our ceremony, which can be arduous with the amount of detail that goes in. She wrote our Love Story, which was creative and fun. Diane responded to emails within seriously 12 hours, every time! On wedding day, Diane did an amazing job with delivery and made it so we didn't have to worry about a thing. We got countless compliments on both our ceremony in general, as well as Diane specifically. Everything was perfect!

  Would Highly Recommend Debby & Journeys of the Heart!

  Journeys of the Heart matched my husband and I with Debby Rickards and she was absolutely wonderful. We spoke with three different officiants and Debby was the clear choice from our first initial video call. She took the time to understand our relationship, our outlooks on life and plans for the future. Debby was also very dedicated to understanding what our perfect ceremony would be. We had a small ceremony with just our families present and Debby made sure that everything went smoothly. Our families loved the ceremony and were impressed with what Debby wrote. I would highly recommend Debby and Journeys of the Heart!

  Jim Rosengarten was perfect!

  We are so happy that we selected Jim Rosengarten to be our officiant through Journeys of the Heart! We got married on 9/4/21, and our guests were all amazed at how personal our ceremony was and everyone thought that Jim was a close family friend. We wanted our ceremony to be deeply personal, and Jim was able to write a beautiful ceremony script incorporating all of our desires within our 20 minute timeframe. In addition to a great day-of-wedding experience, he also filled us with numerous laughs throughout the process keeping wedding planning lighthearted & meaningful. We 100% recommend Jim to every couple!

  Debby was incredible

  We used Journeys of the Heart to select an officiant for our interfaith wedding. We got to meet with Debby Rickards to discuss how we wanted the ceremony to go. She provided the most incredible service that a couple could ask for. She learned about our relationship and truly made us feel comfortable about our big day. She used so many details from our original discussion to create a wedding ceremony that was 100% catered to our specific needs and vision. She was always supportive and let us collaborate with her to make sure the script was exactly how we wanted it.
  When it came time for the big day she arrived and delivered the most amazing ceremony. Still to this day, our family and friends tell us that it was the most special wedding ceremony that they've ever seen. This isn't an exaggeration. We loved our wedding and reception, but the Ceremony was absolutely the highlight of our special day. I couldn't recommend this company enough. Thanks Debby!

  Susan Harte is amazing!

  We booked Journeys of the Heart solely based off internet recommendations and reviews, and we are SO glad we had Susan Harte as our officiant for our September 2021 wedding. We originally were paired with Diane Smith-Hoban, however, she unfortunately had a conflict for which we were then paired with Susan. Our experience with Diane was wonderful, and the transition to working with Susan was just as lovely. It was actually nice that we got to meet Susan via Zoom after already having a rough draft of our ceremony. She helped guide us in the perfect direction of what our ceremony should look like based on her expertise and what is important to us as a couple. Susan offered to come and rehearse our ceremony with us the night before our wedding, as I think she sensed our nerves in general of rehearsing right before the actual wedding. Our ceremony was one of the highlights of our wedding day. It was special, thoughtful, and included both mine and my husbands parents perfectly, highlighting their marriages and how their relationship inspired our bond. We had multiple people come up to us and let us know that the ceremony was unlike any other they have been to and they truly enjoyed the personal touch that Susan gave in her ceremony delivery. If you need an officiant for your wedding, I would highly recommend Susan Harte from Journeys of the Heart. Thank you so much for everything!

  Diane Mina Weltman was our officiant and she was a joy to work with. She made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process and made our mid-week wedding with our immediate family extra special. She also provided us with reminders leading up to our wedding and sent all of the useful follow up information we needed about our marriage license afterward.
  
  Thank you Diane!

  Beautiful Ceremony

  Susan was great as a last minute addition to our wedding! We stubbornly thought that we could do without an officiant but I am glad we decided to hire her. Her consultative approach and personalized vows were just enough serious and just enough funny and we loved the balance. Would recommend very highly!

  Speechless. Grateful.

  Sue Harte with Journeys of the Heart was truly one of our favorite memories of our wedding day. My husband and I were faced with a venue change three months prior to our wedding due to ongoing covid restrictions in the city where our original venue was. After a two year engagement, we had all of our vendors booked including our officiant. Unfortunately our original officiant was not available on our new date and fled with our prepaid deposits, which was such a punch in the gut since all of this was completely out of our control. A coworker of mine recommended Journeys of the Heart and to our absolute delight, we were paired with Sue thanks to Diane Smith-Hoban. She was kind, selfless, genuine, and such a warm, glowing soul. She executed an incredible wedding ceremony for Tyler and I on Friday, June 4th of 2021 after months of stress, uncertainty, and my husbands dad passing away unexpectedly just months prior to our wedding. Our guests have been raving ever since about how personable, fun, special and memorable our ceremony was. Four months later, we can confidently say our ceremony was our favorite part of the day and we have Sue to thank for that. We are so grateful. Thank you.

  Personal and Professional!

  We were so happy to find Jim Haley at Journeys of the Heart to perform our wedding ceremony. He was truly wonderful to work with. His goal was to get to know us well so that he could make the ceremony very personal and special for us. He succeeded! We met virtually and in person and filled out a questionnaire so that he really understood who we are and our history together as a couple. He crafted the most amazing ceremony for us. All of our guests told us how touching the ceremony was. And he made it all very easy for us even though we were nervous. I highly recommend Jim to officiate your wedding! Thank you Jim for making our wedding very special!

  Diane was the Perfect Officiant!

  We could not have enough great things to say about Diane Weltman. We originally had our wedding planned for August 2020 which unfortunately had to be pushed due to COVID. We decided to do a small, intimate backyard wedding which Diane unselfishly agreed to officiant. Diane was such a huge part in our planning process when we had to adjust on the fly. We could not have done it without her! We were fortunate enough to have our big ceremony and reception this summer and with the help of some incredible suggestions by Diane, incorporated both the traditional ceremony aspect as well as recognizing the small intimate ceremony from last year. Diane was the perfect officiant from small to finish and I couldn't have enough amazing things to say about her. HIGHLY recommend using her for all couples out there. Diane, we thank you for everything from the bottom of our hearts!

  Custom ceremony

  Just wanted to drop a few lines to review our recent experience with Journey of the Heart for our recent July 2021 wedding.
  
  From the first email to the day itself, everything was great.
  
  Communication was always quick and clear. Prices were transparent. One of the reasons we like working with Journeys of the Hearts was the knowledge that if anything went wrong and our officiant couldn’t make it, that we would have a back up and everything would be taken care of. Didn’t need this in the end, but great peace of mind.
  
  Our officiant was Brian. We were looking for a secular wedding ceremony with a hand fasting ritual. He took the time to get to know us, and did a great job weaving our personal story into his script. The hand fasting especially felt very unique and reflective of who we are. We are still getting comments from people about how well the ceremony matched our personalities.
  
  We live in CA and had our ceremony in PA so family could attend. All that to say planning could have been difficult, but Brian worked well by email and virtual calls. We didn’t have time for a rehearsal, but Brian was prepared and walked us through the trickiest details briefly beforehand.
  
  All in all, it was a magical day, and we were so happy that Brian and Journeys of the heart helped bring our vision of celebration to life.
