    Kelly was great!!!

    We can’t thank Kelly enough for going above and beyond making our ceremony so special. Kelly ensured we were comfortable with the length of the ceremony and gave us a draft of it to review before hand. She was so easy to talk to and very understanding! Kelly always was just a email or phone call away if we had any questions. We got married at the Summit of Loon Mountain and she made our short and sweet ceremony perfect! Thank you Kelly!

    Kelly married my husband and I on Cathedral Ledge in the White Mountains on September 17th - she brought our story, our commitment, to life in front of all of our favorite people in our favorite place on Earth.

    She was patient and kind with us before, during and after the wedding. She assisted my with any questions I had, helped us search for a town in NH open on the weekends so we could get our marriage license, gave me tons of ceremony samples that I could write ours, and is still answering questions about my name change even a week after the wedding.

    Not only that, but Kelly was kind enough to bear with us when we forgot our RINGS, marriage license AND final payment upon arriving for the ceremony. She started the ceremony while the rings/license were on their way and even preformed without the rest of her payment, which she allowed me to submit the next day.

    We couldn't have found a better JP for our amazing ceremony!

    Kelly was amazing. Her experience and professionalism made the process stress free. She had plenty of suggestions and examples to provide guidance, but was open and enthusiastic with personal requests and suggestions.It is obvious that she has passion in what she does. It was her goal to make our ceremony unique to my husband and I's relationship. As we live out of stat, Kelly was always responsive to emails, and open for calls and Skype. It was truly a joy to work with her, and at the end of the day, our ceremony was beautiful and everything we could have hoped for.

    Where do I being with Kelly? She was more than what I imagined an Officiant would be! She was so responsive and helpful, and caring. Any time I had contact with her, whether email or phone I always felt like she really did care about us and our ceremony. SHe was so flexible and willing to do/ say anything we wanted. OUR ceremony was absolutely perfect! We had so many compliments from our guests about how well Kelly officiated, they found her to be very professional but very warm, and friendly. In fact many of our families thought we knew her personally prior to hiring her as out JP, just by the way she spoke with such ease, like she had known us forever ! We loved it, and recommend her to everyone!

    Kelly was wonderful!

    Kelly was wonderful! She made our special day more special than we could have imagined. She made us feel very comfortable and she was very attentive to our needs. Her beautiful words for the ceremony were exceptional. If you are considering having Kelly perform your ceremony, please do not delay, book her today. She was terrific!

    Kelly took the time to know our story and incorporate it into our wedding ceremony. We loved that she provided us with samples to review so we knew where to begin. Kelly was great!

    We feel incredibly lucky that Kelly performed our marriage ceremony. Though she did much more than that! She was so open and kind from the first email. We were starting with a blank slate and Kelly provided information and examples for us to review to create our own ceremony. She was so easy to work with, especially with us being 3 hours away. We were able to get on the phone, Skype, email and share Google docs. Most of all, Kelly has a wonderful energy about her. We were so comfortable with her and knew she was someone we could trust to marry us. It was a truly special experience, we were so happy with how our ceremony turned out and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

    Working with Kelly was an absolute pleasure! She performed our ceremony at the Bellevue Barn in Jefferson, NH in September 2018.

    We were considering having a friend officiate our wedding and initially contacted Kelly with the thought of having her help out our friend with writing a ceremony. After our first call, we decided to have Kelly do it herself. There are so many things about wedding planning and making sure all of the details are perfect that can be really stressful, but Kelly has such a calming way about her. She makes you feel comfortable because of her demeanor and her clear experience.

    She worked with us to create a totally custom ceremony that felt true to our relationship with so many personal touches - and made it easy! She sent over lots of examples that helped us get find what resonated with us. We received so many compliments on the ceremony itself and how clear everyone could hear. Kelly was so friendly and professional; I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant!

    Kelly performed our service in Bretton Woods in early September. We actually took a ride to meet and speak with her in June. I found Kelly to be warm and inviting. She was so helpful with suggestions and ideas to make our ceremony perfect. She made us feel like we’d been friends for a long time. She is super prompt and we worked everything out through email. I can’t tell you how many of our guests commented on how lovely she was. I didn’t want her to leave!!! We couldn’t have been happier with her services. I would highly recommend her.

    We absolutely loved working with Kelly! Since we live in Arizona and there is a time change, Kelly was extremely flexible when planning our Skype sessions. She gave us lots of great ideas about customizing our ceremony and she took our ideas into consideration as well. She created a beautiful and perfect ceremony that we will cherish forever!! Even our guests talked about how our ceremony was so unique and customized to us! We HIGHLY recommend her to be every couples JP!

    What can we say about Kelly? She was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! After originally thinking that we would have a friend perform the ceremony, we ultimately decided that we wanted a professional, and Kelly was on our venue's preferred vendor list. After talking to her on the phone (for over an hour!) the first time, I knew that she would be absolutely perfect. She wanted our ceremony to be just the - our ceremony. She sent over tons of examples, but the ball was in our court. We were able to personalize everything to fit us, and Kelly was on board. She offered suggestions from her past experience which was so helpful, and she was funny, kind and supportive through the entire process. You would not BELIEVE the compliments that I got after our ceremony was finished - everyone absolutely loved Kelly and thought she did a wonderful job. She knows the little tricks to make everything flow perfectly, and she even stepped to the side just before our first kiss so that she wasn't in the background of the photo! Kelly, thank you so much for everything you did for us, we can never thank you enough! <3 Kendra & Andrew

    Kelly was an absolute pleasure to work with. My husband and I eloped to the Omni Mount Washington and got married during a sleigh ride. Kelly was flexible in the planning and made it our dream come true. We didn’t write vows but rather had Kelly find the perfect vows for us after meeting via FaceTime one evening the week of the wedding. Everything she said was absolutely perfect and we have a memory we will treasure forever. We highly recommend Kelly for your special day.

    Unfortuantely no photos, This marriage was a moment, only for Scot and I to remember. It was a situation, when we decided this is what we want to do. Kelly was fantastic. A few minutes on the phone, we made plans, the situation worked out with our schdedules. ( Mind you,, I spoke to Kelly of Friday - we go married Saturday!) It was beautiful, simple, and Kelly was professional, yet personable, loving, compassionate and gave us all we asked for!

    Her sermon (is that what I call it?) was so appropriate it brought tears to our eyes! I asked for a copy which Kelly provided. It was so appropriate. It was unique to our situation, as if Kelly had known us longer than we had kown each other!!

    I do not really know how to put this experience into words. It has to be felt. Who else to share this with than Kelly.
    So grateful, and joyful. This was a very personal experience. That is all we wanted. I know my children are upset they were not included, nobody was. Just Kelly, Scot, and me. What a wonderful moment.

    Thank you!!

    Sincerely, Susan and Scot Christenson (SC squared)

    Kelly was awesome! She was able to give us great ideas for a location and when the weather turned out to be rainy, she quickly came up with an alternate place that turned out to be perfect. Her choice of vows couldn't have been better! Will be a great forever memory.

    We were looking to make it legal before my husbands deployment but still wanted a memorable ceremony. Kelly was very helpful with our ceremony plans, from providing ceremony examples to suggesting traditions, readings and poems to incorporate. Kelly and I communicated solely through email as it was most convenient with my work schedule and she was responded to all our questions within a couple hours, staying in touch from the earliest stages of planning right up to the day before the ceremony. She tailored our ceremony perfectly to tell the story of our love and life together. We couldn't have had a day half as amazing without her! We hope to book Kelly for our larger "wedding part 2" to celebrate with extended family and friends next October. Highly recommend!!

    Kelly was hands down the most stress free part of the wedding process. She is very professional and was very helpful during the vow writing process. Always on time and more than willing to answer any questions whenever they arose during the planning process. Highly recommend her.

    Kelly was amazing! She was booked to officiate a wedding at the same venue later in the day on our wedding day and she happily accepted our request for her to be part of our special day! We felt it was fate! Not only was she incredibly responsive leading up to the wedding, but she really customizes the ceremony to the individual couple. During our ceremony, the skies opened up and it absolutely poured. But it only added to our special day; everyone made the most of it, including Kelly who just had fun with it! She even helped move some decorations into the venue after the ceremony!!!!! The day following our wedding she reached out and shared a very special saying about rain on the wedding day; we weathered our first storm!! We think Kelly was fantastic and strongly recommend her to anyone looking!!!!!

    Kelly was amazing! We wanted a professional yet down to earth JP for our wedding and she delivered. We were sent many example ceremonies to get a feel for what Kelly does. She incorporated different readings we chose and made the entire ceremony cohesive. She was always quick to respond whenever we had any questions and made us feel at ease with the stress of everything. Kelly even mailed us a card after the wedding (including the vows which I handed back to her!) She does an amazing job and I'm very happy we had her to officiate our big day.
