    Shannon & Ben

    Wanda was a joy to work with! She took the time to get to know us and made the process of sketching out our ceremony and vows a breeze. She even took care of dropping our marriage certificate back off at town hall. We can't recommend her highly enough!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Thank you so much for taking the time to pen this, Shannon & Ben! Your wedding at The Lace Factory was exquisite!

    Wanda was wonderful

    Everything about Wanda and her service was just perfect. Easy to communicate with, fair price, executed our ceremony just how we wanted it. Not too long, not too short. Many guests complimented her ceremony as well. Highly recommend.

    The absolute best!!

    Wanda is the sweetest person and helped us so much from start to finish. The ceremony was BEAUTIFUL! I truly would not change a single thing if I could. Wanda knows what she’s doing and has the most beautiful words to say. Our family and friends had so many compliments as well. I would highly recommend Wanda to any couples!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Cassie & Tyler! I am so thrilled you chose me over a year ago to Officiate your fabulous wedding at Saint Clements Castle and Marina. You are both beautiful souls! Standing with the river surrounding us was almost surreal!!

    Wanda is amazing!

    Wanda was my dream JOP and lived up to the expectation of all those 5-star reviews she has. From the moment I reached out to Wanda she made the planning of our ceremony easy. She was incredibly responsive and organized. Wanda was happy to hear the ideas we had for our ceremony and think of really thoughtful ways to incorporate them. Her sense of humor is amazing and she carried that into our ceremony on our wedding day.


    Wanda was the best addition to our wedding and I highly recommend working with her.

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Thank you so much for your sweet words, Rachel! You and Chris had such a beautiful day at Smith Farms Gardens! I wish you a lifetime of love and being amazed by your great fortune in having found one another!

    Best Officiant Ever!

    Wanda had great communication all throughout planning. She was so personable and strived to make our ceremony very meaningful and unique. Her ability to create not only a memorable narrative, but one that was down to earth and represents us made our day so special. It truly felt like family was marrying us! We had so many compliments on the professionalism and personality of the officiant. Would recommend Wanda to everyone looking for a timeless, personal, and loving ceremony.

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Olivia & Caleb! Getting to know you was such a pleasure and I was thrilled for the beautiful weather for your Wedding at Wyndcrest Estates! Your future together is going to be spectacular!

    Amazing!!!

    We were so lucky to have Wanda be a part of our very special day to marry us. She was so pleasant to work with, we loved her personality and her charm. So many of our guests complemented our justice of the peace, she was very well spoken and was able to connect the ceremony to who we are as a couple. 100% would recommend!!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Krista & Stephen! I loved meeting you and your beautiful kiddos! When you two walked up the aisle, tuned around, hunched down and Logan & Emma ran into your arms, my eyes welled up! It was just so joyful! Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to write this!

    Wanda was wonderful to work with

    Wanda was an absolute pleasure to work with. We felt her truly motherly presence with helping us through the unknowns of planning a wedding ceremony. She helped to customize our ceremony to fit us as a couple. She even helped us execute a special request a few months prior to the wedding with a great sense of urgency. I would absolutely recommend using Wanda for any of your JOP wedding needs.

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Chelsea, Thank you for not saying "grandmotherly"! (haha) You and Adam were delightful before and on your wedding day at the West Hartford Delamar! I even got to pet Bellini on her way out!

    Wonderful Wedding with Wanda!

    Wanda was an absolute delight at our ceremony! She was extremely responsive through Wedding Wire, walked us through how our ceremony would go on Zoom and answered any questions we had. I come from a religious family and my husband does not. Wanda helped us incorporate the vision we had for our ceremony perfectly. My husband is also very type A, and Wanda handled his requests like a champ! She came to our ceremony promptly, well-prepared, and knocked it out of the park. Wanda is a dream!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Oh Jillian! You and Ryan are a wonderful couple and your Aria wedding was so beautiful! Thank you so much for writing such sweet words!

    A personal and beautiful ceremony

    Wanda put together the most personal, intimate and beautiful ceremony for us. We met with her once and were able to go over preferences that we did/did not want, pick out vows, etc. We absolutely loved our ceremony and it was the most complimented part of our wedding.

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Thank you so much for your sweet words! Your wedding at the Candlewood Inn was so gorgeous on the beautiful lake!

    Absolutely wonderful!

    Wanda is incredible! Upon first meeting her, it was like talking with a friend I knew for years. She created a beautiful ceremony for my husband and I, and truly made it for us. She took what was important to us, and we couldn’t have asked for a better ceremony! Wanda answered any questions we had, including steps in the name changing process. Wanda went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was everything we wanted it to be. She helped make our day so special. We are so grateful for her! Thank you, Wanda!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    I so admired your grace in opting to have your ceremony indoors at the Owenego Inn & Beach Club due to a few sprinkles and a lot of wind! Standing in front of the fireplace created a lovely ambiance. Thank you for for penning such sweet words!

    Perfect Ceremony and Amazing Officiant!!

    We are so grateful to have found Wanda to officiate our wedding! She made our entire process of building our ceremony so easy! Right from the beginning and right up to our wedding day she was quick to reply to any questions we had and was so helpful in all steps along the way! She is SO kind and took her time to get to know us and our story and asked us questions to make the perfect ceremony! We were looking for something on the shorter side with personal touches and it was exactly that! I would HIGHLY recommend Wanda! You can see how much I loved the ceremony in the photo below! We thank you again!!

    Best officiant

    Wanda was everything we wanted and needed during our ceremony. She took the time to get to know us and incorporated our story beautifully. She really engaged our audience and the entire crowd applauded several times. Afterwards, many guests came up to me complimenting Wanda on her professionalism and ceremony. I highly recommend Wanda for any service as she is extremely thoughtful, professional and an excellent speaker.

    It was a pleasure to work with Wanda! Our ceremony ran so smoothly and she was able to accommodate our requests from keeping things short and sweet to adding in personal touches to include our pets. Wanda was responsive and organized from the moment we reached out and was always available to answer any questions or concerns about the flow of the ceremony - a great JP!

    Perfectly done

    We knew we wanted to get married on site at our venue in the beautiful garden but didn’t know any officiants or someone who could marry us. After briefly looking we came across Wanda. From the beginning she was responsive and professional. She took the anxiety out of the ceremony.. during our planning meeting she asked what we wanted and had examples to choose from which was very helpful!
    The actual ceremony was BEAUTIFUL… I still can’t get over it. Everything Wanda said was touching and “us”. It was exactly what we wanted. She so lovingly mentioned loved ones who passed on and included our family dog Luna in the ceremony. We can’t recommend Wanda enough!! If you are worried about a “stranger” marrying you… you don’t have to be with Wanda, it felt like we’ve known her for years. THANK YOU WANDA!!!!

    A true pro!

    I truly believe Wanda is the perfect officiant for just about anyone's wedding!!! She has an amazing calming presence yet is extremely professional and on the ball! My husband and I are not religious, yet we grew up with Catholic and Jewish backgrounds. We wanted to honor the traditions of those backgrounds without making our ceremony overly religious. Wanda worked with us to find the perfect wording for every aspect of our ceremony. During the ceremony itself, Wanda dressed appropriately, spoke clearly, and gave a beautiful introduction. Wanda takes the time to get to know you as a couple and entwine your love story into the words that she speaks. I was very worried that hiring an officiant who didn't know us would feel impersonal but not only did she do an excellent job getting to know us, you could tell she truly felt invested in our relationship. As she says, "she loves, love"! Working with an officiant who feels that way is so so special!

    As I mentioned earlier, she is also extremely on the ball! A few examples of this - we had already followed one another on IG prior to our first consultation...during the consultation I noticed that she had already saved a post I made about our engagement in her notes. She had already started to follow along and understand the details of our love story so that she could breadcrumb them into the ceremony. I loved that attention to detail. Additionally, mid-ceremony when I was having trouble keeping the tears in she swiftly pulled a tissue out of what seemed like thin air and discreetly handed it to me. Her preparedness blew me away. She's also very passionate about moving out of the way so that you can have gorgeous "first kiss" photos without a third wheel hanging in the background. This isn't something I had thought of - but it makes a huge difference! You can tell she has learned many helpful tricks throughout her years of experience as she really is prepared for anything!

    You really cannot get a better than Wanda's mix of utmost professionalism and expertise, yet still remaining kind and warm. Book her now!!!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Elizabeth, I cannot thank you enough for blowing me away with this review! You and Michael were dream clients who became more like good friends (now I need a tissue for happy tears). Your dream wedding was perfection by all your vendors and especially The Riverhouse at Goodspeed Station!

    Excellent officiant!!

    Wanda officiated our wedding over Labor Day weekend and she made our ceremony beautiful! When we first contacted Wanda she was incredibly responsive and helped answer any questions we had. We had our initial meeting a few months out from the wedding and during that meeting Wanda really helped us plan the perfect ceremony. She is an expert and so professional. She had examples of portions of the ceremony which helped us shape exactly what we wanted. She crafted a personalized ceremony that captured our love story.

    The day of the wedding Wanda was prompt and checked in with us at our bridal suite. She held our personal vow books for us during the ceremony until we needed them, and then during the vows she stepped away to ensure the photographs captured just us two saying our personal vows. I know this will make for a wonderful photo! She also stepped out of the frame when we had our first kiss as husband and wife, again ensuring the photographers captured just us. These details may seem so small, but we appreciated it so much. Our guests raved about how beautiful the ceremony was. We would recommend Wanda to anybody looking for an officiant!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Jessica, I knew you and Jasim were the most perfect & gracious couple from our very first meeting and am thrilled that your day was fabulous!

    Wanda was amazing!

    Wanda was amazing to work with! We met before the wedding and she walked us through the entire process. She asked lots of questions to get to know us and then tailored the ceremony to us perfectly! We had several guests comment saying how they loved the ceremony. We highly recommend!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Best Officiant Ever!!

    Wanda was the best officiant we could have asked for! She was recommended by a friend who is a wedding coordinator and loves working with Wanda. She provided us with the most personalized amazing ceremony, short and sweet just like we wanted! Throughout the rest of the wedding all of our friends and family kept telling us it was the best ceremony they’ve ever seen! She met with us the months prior to the wedding and really got to know us, incorporating our pups and love of beer in the ceremony. It truly felt like we knew Wanda for years.. If you are considering Wanda to make your special day perfect… do it!!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    You and Connor were a dream couple, Alyssa, and I loved how very cool the "beer ritual" culminated with applause from your guests!

    Amazing JOP!

    Wanda is an amazing JOP! She makes you feel so special during your ceremony. We only met with Wanda once, and she was able to encapsulate our relationship and story so beautifully. She is easy to talk to and extremely responsive. Couldn't recommend Wanda more!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Perfect ceremony!

    We so enjoyed working with Wanda! At our first meeting she spent time getting to know us and helped us build a ceremony that we loved and reflected us as a couple. On wedding day, Wanda arrived early and was ready to go. We received so many compliments from our guests about our ceremony. Wanda handled our marriage license from beginning to end, taking something off of our to-do list. Thank you, Wanda, for being a part of our special day!

    Jenny & Victor 4/15/22 Wedding

    We had a wonderful experience with Wanda as our Officiant for our April 2022 wedding. She is very experienced and professional in what she does, which is so helpful to couples who have not done this before and aren’t quite sure what exactly they’re looking for in their ceremony. She was able to provide us with suggestions and ideas to make it personal and special for us. We got many, many compliments on what a beautiful ceremony it was!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Wanda Chiles JP

    Wanda was absolutely amazing! We had no clue how we wanted our ceremony to look and she met with us and got a feel for our personalities and had so many suggestions to help us design the perfect ceremony! Even meshed together two different religions! She was always there if we had any questions and even gave me all the paperwork to make the name change process easier! I would definitely recommend Wanda to anyone in need of a JP!!

    Love Wanda

    Wanda is beyond perfection! She did an amazing job summarizing our love for one another at our wedding. Her attention to details given during our first meeting carried through to the day of our ceremony. Wanda is not only an outstanding JOP, but an added extended member of our family (we “adopted” her). Definitely recommend Wanda Chiles for anyone in need of a Justice of Peace!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Peter Wedding

    Wanda officiated our small wedding in 2020 and our large wedding in 2021! Both ceremonies were perfect! Wanda was able to incorporate my two grandfathers speeches into her ceremony which so so special and meaningful to me. Wanda is very elegant and clear in her speech. She also assisted us with the process to obtain a wedding license and name change paperwork.

    The absolute best!!!!

    Wanda was absolutely amazing from start to finish and truly listened to what we wanted our ceremony to be! On the day of our wedding, she delivered the most amazing, thoughtful ceremony and we truly couldn't have asked for anything better. After the ceremony, our guests raved about how wonderful Wanda was and how it felt like she had known us for years with the personal touches she included, such as how we met and talking about our fur babies! We couldn't have asked for a better ceremony and we have Wanda to thank for that!

    A beautiful, personalized ceremony given by a true professional

    Wanda was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire wedding process. She was knowledgeable and prompt to respond to all of our concerns or questions. She helped us customize and create a truly personal ceremony that perfectly captured the love and relationship of not only my husband and I, but of the love and support of our family and friends. With a warm and kind personality, Wanda made the ceremony the least of our worries, as she organized the marriage license and printing/bringing our vows to the wedding so we didn't have to worry about a thing! EVERYONE kept saying it was a ceremony they would never forget! Thank you, Wanda!!!

    A Personalized and Unique Ceremony

    Wanda did an amazing job of officiating our September 2021 wedding. We spoke with a few officiants, and even in that first meeting felt like Wanda was going to do the best job at creating a special and unique ceremony for us! We were right – we wanted a non-denomination ceremony that incorporated nods to both of our religious heritages (Catholic and Jewish), and she helped us craft something that was special and meaningful, and exactly what we wanted! She was very comforting through the whole process, constantly telling me “you’re not allowed to apologize because you’re the bride!” On the day of the wedding, she was very professional and did a wonderful job, and you can tell through every step of the process that she really loves what she does!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Amazing, beautiful!!

    Wanda is amazing! I was introduced to Wanda over 4 years ago when she officiated my sisters ceremony. So when I started to plan my wedding there wasn’t a question as to who I would like to hire to officiate mine! From the very beginning Wanda was very responsive, with a quick and easy booking process. We met and she was so prepared with all of the right questions and helped us add in things like a thank you to our parents that we hadn’t even thought of and picked out so many details to add to our ceremony. I trusted her full heartedly that she would do an amazing job capturing us and our story, and she did not disappoint ! Thank you Wanda for a beautiful ceremony, full of love and laughter. We will remember it for a life time ! ❤️

    A beautiful ceremony!

    Wanda came highly recommended to us and she certainly delivered a beautiful ceremony! She took the time to meet with us a few months before the wedding and developed a meaningful and very personal ceremony, and even incorporated a few readings we found and liked. She was warm and helpful throughout the process and it’s clear she genuinely enjoys officiating. Thank you, Wanda, for a memorable day!

    Forever grateful!

    From the moment we contacted Wanda we knew we made the right choice. We had the chance to meet up for coffee and share a little of our story with her and she so easily transformed it into a beautiful ceremony to share with our family and friends, whom all raved about her afterwards. She was always attentive in answering our questions throughout the process. We can’t thank her enough for an absolutely perfect day. We could not have found a better JP to marry us. Forever grateful! So if your thinking of having Wanda officiate your day, look no further, you found the right person to help make your day perfect as well!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Just amazing!

    Wanda helped us from the very beginning we communicated with her for our wedding (pre-COVID). We met over Zoom and we loved all her ideas for our ceremony. She was always available, told me the bride should never apologize for anything, and was reassuring to us during so many of the uncertain times during these past few months. Our ceremony on 11/20/20 was perfect. So many guests complimented us on our spiritual and romantic ceremony and praised Wanda's beautiful words and our stone ceremony. All our vendors were so excited to learn Wanda was doing our ceremony so you know when other vendors support each other it says something!!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Being a part of your wedding was such a thrill and delight for me! You and Kevin are a beautiful couple and I am so happy your Big Day turned out to be absolutely perfect!!

    Justice of the Peace

    We contacted Wanda a short time before our wedding and we were so happy that we did! We feel that Wanda truly took the time to get to know us as a couple and incorporated aspects of our lives seamlessly into a beautifully executed ceremony. She responds to questions in a timely fashion and is very knowledgeable about the marriage license / name change process. Highly recommend! ❤️

    Wanda for the win! :)

    If you’re on the fence about a Justice of the Peace, Wanda Chiles was wonderful! I would say I am a bit more critical in general because I have OCD, so the little things that aren’t as important to most, are important to me. Wanda was there from the start to the very finish. She answered all of our questions in a timely fashion (most times within an hour), helped to guide us on how to go about changing my last name and kept me calm through the process of changing the ceremony due to COVID craziness. We had a small ceremony this year with immediate family and they all enjoyed it and complemented Wanda. We will be doing a larger ceremony next year (fingers crossed) which we will have Wanda officiate as well and we can’t wait!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Kate, you and Richie are the epitome of class and warmth. I can't wait for the big do-over in 2021!!

    Absolutely Amazing

    Wanda went above and beyond for me and my fiance. The ceremony she put on for us was perfect and our guests loved her! I cannot recommend Wanda enough. She lived up to all of the great characteristics we heard about her and made our day beautiful. We had a covid wedding and Wanda supported us in everyway possible throughout the entire time. If I could give 100 stars I would!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Highly Recommend!

    Wanda officiated our wedding on 07/25/2020 and we were extremely impressed with her quality of work and level of professionalism. Originally, we were suppose to have a 120 person ceremony on March 28th, 2020 but unfortunately due to Covid we had to reschedule and we ended up having a small 16 person family only ceremony in July. With covid and having to change the wedding date the process was really stressful to get all the vendors to line up and get everything reorganized but Wanda was extremely flexible and encouraging during the entire process, my wife and I were extremely impressed with the level of service she was able to provide for us....it was one less thing that we had to worry about. She did a wonderful job officiating our ceremony and she had amazing attention to detail and just in general everything went perfectly.....we highly recommend her!!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Thank you so much for the lovely words! You and Catherine were a dream to work with and my heart broke for you that your date and location had to change but your 7/25/2020 wedding was indeed beautiful!

    The Best! Just Awesome! 8/1/2020

    Lucrecia and I wanted to thank you again for officiating our Wedding. Many of our guests commented on the beautiful ceremony and awesome job you did! We are thrilled with the way everything went and couldn't be happier! For anyone out there looking for an officiant for a Wedding Ceremony, look no further...Wanda was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She took the time to get to know OUR story and customized our vows and ring exchanges to reflect the love we share for each other. Her attention to detail, professionalism and flexibility are second to none!

    Thank you, Mark, for the sweet words and I was honored to Officiate your beautiful marriage to Lucrecia on a picture perfect day by the ocean!

    The perfect ceremony

    Wanda was referred to us by our best friends, who were married a few years ago by Wanda. I was in the wedding party then, and saw how amazing and personal Wanda was for them. By the time we were engaged years later, I always remembered Wanda and the amazing job she did, so it was a no brainer for us to reach out! Wanda met with us a few times to ensure she knew exactly how we wanted our ceremony to go. We wanted it short, sweet and with a dash of religion (to cater to my old-school Roman Catholic family-- who were a little worried I wasn't getting married in a church lol). Wanda definitely delivered and more! Our guests were laughing and crying along with us as Wanda gracefully took us through the ceremony. It would not have been the same without her- so if you're looking for someone to make your ceremony as personal as possible I highly recommend Wanda! You will not regret it and thank you Wanda!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Jenna, Thank You for the lovely review! You and Tim are a perfect couple and I was so honored that you chose me! I am still swooning over your exquisitely beautiful gown!!

    I don't know where to even begin. We love Wanda! She was such an important part of our wedding and she was amazing! She was wonderful and so easy to work with. My husband and I were able to give her the marriage certificate well before the wedding and were able to choose our entire ceremony when we met with her. She had great ideas (Many of which we hadn't even thought of) and she was so helpful every step of the way. I'm not the best public speaker and was a little weary writing my own vows so she helped us choose the perfect vows that spoke to us without having to write our own--and we did personal letters instead. She also really listened to what we had wanted. My biggest fear was people taking multiple photos throughout the ceremony, so we wanted an unplugged one. Wanda announced that and I don't know what she said but that rule was followed!!! My guests didn't raise a phone once and it was so nice to see when we did occasionally look out to our guests. Not to mention she has a perfect speaking voice for this job!! Wanda is truly amazing and you absolutely need to book her if you're looking for an officiant!

    Excellent experience!

    Wanda officiated our wedding on 10.11.19 and we are BEYOND impressed with her. She has the most perfect way about her, and is so poised and elegant in how she speaks. Our ceremony was beautiful, heartfelt and everything we envisioned it to be. Wanda is a true professional and cares very much about the couples she works with. We received countless compliments on our ceremony and cannot recommend her enough!

    My husband and I had such a great experience with Wanda for our wedding two weeks ago and we highly recommend her! When we first met with her, we knew that she would be perfect for our ceremony and she was the only JOP that we ended up meeting with. She sent over a ceremony draft prior to the wedding for us to review and we didn't even make 1 edit to it. Our guests have been raving about our ceremony and it wouldn't have been what it was if it weren't for Wanda so thank you!

    Wanda was the JP for our wedding on August 31, 2019. Not only is she an incredibly sweet and caring person, she also loves what she does and it’s evident in her work. She was very easy to work with and we are still getting compliments months later about how beautiful the ceremony was delivered, thanks to Wanda. We would definitely recommend her!!!

    Perfect Ceremony!

    My husband and I really weren't sure what we wanted in terms of a JP. I did some research, and loved all of the reviews on Wanda. The personalized ceremony still stood out to me, and BOY did she deliver. Everybody raved about how intimate the ceremony was and the personal touches meant so much to Matt & I. We were so lucky to have found Wanda & so thankful she performed such an amazing ceremony we will never forget! THANK YOU Wanda from the bottom of our hearts!

    So Personal

    Wanda made our ceremony so memorable. She was amazing from the start. She answered my many emails right away and always provided more than enough information. When we met to plan the ceremony, she was calm and attentive. She answered any questions of concerns we had. She asked about our love story, asked what we want to include in the ceremony and what we want to leave out. She was beyond helpful with picking readings for us to use, that weren’t religious but meant something to us. She helped with the process in writing our vows and made it less nerve wracking. Day of the ceremony, Wanda came and checked on me right before in the bridal suite. She came prepared with tissues in hand, anytime I started to get teary eyed. She gave us non-verbal gestures when it was time to do certain things. She included our dog in her intro and thanked our parents. During the reception, we received so many compliments about the ceremony. They said they have never seen a ceremony be that personal and meaningful. I would recommend Wanda to anyone. She is amazing and what she does and provides memories for such a special day to last forever!

    Simply the best !

    When my husband and I set out to find someone to marry us we did not realize how truly had it would be. We read through several bio’s of reverends and JP’s and no one spoke to us until Wanda.

    After just a short phone call my husband and I knew Wanda was the only person who could marry us. She was sweet, well spoken, had similar interests and likes as us (a bonus), and agreed and was excited for what I envisioned.

    Meeting up with Wanda was easy and we walked away with a solid plan for our ceremony !

    Everything was executed perfectly the day of and our marriage license was received in a timely manner !

    Family and friends have raved that our ceremony was the most beautiful they have ever attended and that wouldn’t have been without Wanda. She holds a special place in our heart.

    Thanks isn’t enough Wanda !

    Wonderful Wanda!

    From the moment I first contacted Wanda (off of a recommendation from our photographer/videographer), there was no doubt that my wife and I were in good hands. As a guy helping to plan our wedding, there were times that I was overwhelmed with everything that needed to get accomplished. Wanda has a way about her that helped to put me at ease--that she was going to take care of everything on her end with sending me reminders, pro tips, or just to be a soundboard. I found that Wanda would respond quickly to any inquiry I had with her. Wanda sat down with us prior to our wedding date to review the type of ceremony we envisioned, and to honor any special requests that we had. Thank you Wanda for being part of our day.

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Thank You so much for this, Austin!! Meeting you and Meghan was indeed a highlight for me and I am certain your forever future together will be glorious!

    Wonderful find!!

    Wanda is a gem! She's a wonderful, friendly, and complimentary woman who we felt very lucky to have officiate our wedding. It was important to us to have someone who is down to earth but also very professional, and Wanda fit the bill. The first time we met with her, Wanda was excited and enthusiastic. She told us right away, "this is my speaking voice, not my officiating voice". I thought that was cute but it's also very REAL. When she turns on the "officiating voice", she's the perfect combo of calm, cool, and collected. Wanda is also really helpful, as she helped us pick a special add on to our ceremony (sand ceremony), and offered us a whole bunch of reading options to start our research.

    I'm a bit of a "do everything myself" kind of woman, and Wanda was kind enough to accommodate me by letting us read her notes for our ceremony ahead of time, and let us make edits (though we had very few, since she did such a beautiful job!). During the ceremony, she spoke beautifully, and ad-libbed at times to compliment our vows, or to make a light joke about my aunt forgetting to print out her speech, which was perfect :-)

    She's professional, sweet as can be, totally on top of her game, and someone you can trust to get the job done well! She did a beautiful job officiating. I would definitely recommend Wanda for your wedding!

    Amazing find!

    If you're looking for a personalized ceremony with someone who truly loves their profession and will put their heart and soul into your day... look no further!! We cannot say enough good things about Wanda! Wanda is very responsive and helped us coordinate not only our ceremony but also helped us obtain our marriage license and provided us with information for the name changing process after our wedding. Wanda took the time to get to know our story and assisted with picking out readings as well as the outline of our ceremony. Her creativeness and passion for what she does truly shined during her deliverance. Our guests could not stop talking about our ceremony and were all shocked to find out that Wanda wasn't a family member or life long friend constantly asking, "but really, where did you find her?!". We cannot recommend Wanda enough for your special day and if you're lucky enough to hire her, know you are in good hands! We loved our ceremony! Thank you so much Wanda!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Thank you so much for the lovely words! You and Matt are a perfect couple who made it so easy to capture your vision!

    Wanda is a true gem!

    Wanda is a true gem!! She is such a professional and we truly felt that she was the perfect officiant for our June 7th wedding. From the very first contact with her, she made it clear how invested she is in her couples and how passionate she is about her work. Wanda truly made my Husband and I feel comfortable and confident that our ceremony would go perfectly. She personalized our ceremony, added suggestions and helped us in creating the perfect ceremony. So many of our guests remarked on how special and personal our wedding ceremony was which was so important for us. We truly loved working with Wanda and would whole heartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant for their wedding! She is amazing!

    Nothing but good things to say!

    Wanda officiated my brothers wedding in September 2018. I thought she did such a great job that my husband and I chose her to officiate ours in June 2019! When meeting with her prior to our wedding, she was lovely to speak with and genuinely wanted to get to know us. Wanda was very helpful in giving us tips/ideas on how we could make our ceremony simple and short, yet meaningful! Our ceremony was beautiful, all thanks to Wanda! We are so happy we chose her!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Erin!! I was thrilled for you and Eric that it turned out to be a stellar weather day, as I'm certain all your guests were for the gorgeous outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour.

    Wanda is the best!

    My fiancé (now husband) and I first spoke with Wanda on the phone in January 2018 regarding officiating our ceremony in October 2018. We immediately clicked and I was so excited to have her marry us! We met with Wanda in person to go over our ceremony. She is so warm, sweet and down to earth. She created a wonderful ceremony that my husband and I will cherish forever. It was perfect and exactly what we hoped for. Thank you for everything Wanda!!

    The Best!!

    Wanda was everything we hopped for in a JOP and more! She was very accomodating in creating a ceremony customized for us and even suggested including our three labs which we absolutely loved! I would strongly recommend Wanda to anyone searching for a JOP!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Alicia! Thank You so much for the kind words! You and Michael are an amazing couple and your Wedding was epic! And how could I possibly have left out your three beautiful Labs??

    Excellent!

    From the first conversation I had with Wanda, I knew she was the one! Personable, flexible, easy to talk with, great listener, and fun!
    Having a smaller, intimate wedding, we wanted our ceremony to be short but meaningful. Wanda sat with us to discuss details, she came with a notebook full of ideas and samples and allowed us to custom create the perfect ceremony. We had called two other JP/ministers and neither was as accommodating as Wanda. She offered to come to us rather than us go to her which was a big plus for us.
    Wanda performed a beautiful, well thought out ceremony which included a beautiful story of our first date! She had our guests laughing and crying. So many guests commented on how beautiful the ceremony was. We were extremely happy with everything Wanda did for us on our day! She is a beautiful soul.

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Oh Alicia! What heartwarming words to wake up to! You and Jeff are the perfect couple and I'm still swooning over your Carolina Herrera gown...I swear it was designed with you in mind! Thank You. xo

    Amazing JP no matter what you are looking for in a ceremony!

    When my husband and I started to talk about what we wanted for our ceremony, we didn’t have any ideas. When we first reached out to Wanda, she was sweet, accommodating and had more to offer than we ever expected. When we sat down with her to actually plan our ceremony, she listened to what we did and didn’t want and had so many suggestions and ideas to offer us. She made it extremely easy to create a ceremony that was perfect for us, and we could not be happier! We have received so many compliments from our guests about how amazing she was, and the fact that she even steps out of the way for moments like vows and our first kiss, which is something I have never seen before! We highly recommend Wanda no matter what your vision may be, she is so loving and knowledgeable, you will not be disappointed!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Thank you so much, Chelsea! You and Drew were both beautiful and I love seeing your professional photos!

    I can't say enough good things about Wanda! She was always so extremely pleasant to work with from the first meeting through the day of the wedding. I loved how personal she made our wedding ceremony, using all of the details that we told her during our meetings. Every single one of our guests commented on the night of, and continue to comment how it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they have ever been to. We did choose to write and recite our own vows, but Wanda's love for what she does shined through during the wedding ceremony. I would recommend Wanda to anyone looking for an amazing officiant!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Lauren, the words you and Randall wrote to each other were exquisite and had me teary eyed! Watching you walk down the aisle , looking so Beautiful had me awestruck...Thank You!

    Wanda was an absolute pleasure to work with! When my husband and I met with her, we knew she was the perfect person to officiate our marriage! She is so kind and helpful throughout the whole process. She really made an effort to get to know us as a couple and we loved that! We felt like we’ve known her for years! :) Several guests commented on her lovely ceremony. Thank you Wanda for everything. We highly recommend her!! Xo

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Wanda is a true professional in her field. We loved her from the moment we met her and our guest did too. She took so much time to make our ceremony personal to us. All the small things she added into to ceremony as she got to know us made it so special. She listened so intently to everything we wanted in a service and delivered. On top of that our guest were all so impressed with her presence and public speaking. A true professional through and through. I can not imagine we could of had a more beautiful ceremony. She went so well with the flow ( got changed inside ) at the rehearsal she was extremely helpful in giving hints and tips. I love that she is thoughtful enough to move for the first kiss photos and to know I was going to forget my bouquet. She really makes the couple feel special and it was an joy to work with her! Thank you Wanda!

    Thank you Wanda for everything! You truly are the best of the best! You are so amazing at what you do. You made us feel so comfortable from the very first time we spoke. Wanda Chiles took the time to get to know us and create a ceremony that best represented us as a couple. You really are a professional and made our day so special. We could not have done it without you. A simple review does not do justice of all that you did for us. We are so happy you were part of our special day.

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Cassie, The first time I met you and Shaquile was super delightful because I also got to meet the too-adorable-for-words, Austin! Your love story is exceptional, and the three of you were so very Beautiful on your Wedding Day! Thank You!

    Wanda is absolutely amazing! I was really nervous about picking a Justice of the Peace but from the very first phone call, Wanda made me feel comfortable. She is friendly and easy to talk to, very passionate about what she does and extremely helpful. At our in person meeting, my husband and I felt that she really spent the time to get to know us as a couple and help us create a ceremony that complemented our personalities and relationship. She thinks of every detail and worked well with our vendors to make sure everything was in place for our ceremony. Wanda was never pushy and when I was unsure about certain aspects of our ceremony she provided us with some really cool different ideas that took our ceremony to another level. We are still receiving many compliments about Wanda and how special and unique our ceremony was. We couldn't have asked for more perfect ceremony! She even provided all of the information we needed to obtain our marriage license and to change my name! We would highly recommend her to other couples!

    Wanda we loved working with you! Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Kate and Anthony, Thank you for writing such a lovely review! You are an absolutely beautiful, perfect, classy couple. The pleasure was all mine!

She helped us personalize the perfect ceremony better than we could dream of! She charmed our guests (& us) that everyone still comments what a special ceremony it was! Love her & highly recommend her to anyone!

    Wanda was everything we had hoped for in a JP and more! She is so warm, welcoming, friendly, supportive, and helpful. She was always so quick to respond to my emails or texts with any questions or concerns I had. When my husband and I met with her, she really took the time to get to know us and our love story. The ceremony she presented was perfect. She touched on everything we wanted her to in a way I truly think only Wanda could have done. I could not have been happier with the service Wanda provided!

    We appreciate the time Wanda spent to prepare our wedding ceremony; it was PERFECT and we’ve both received tons of compliments on the beautiful wording to this day! (We got married February 2017)
    We first had our casual meeting in Panera, she really took the time to get to know us as a couple before the “big day” and that shows what a caring person she is and how special and personalized each ceremony is. She was full of ideas and respectful of all of our wishes, without judgment.

    Wanda is a truly special person and Justice of the Peace, and I am so happy we went with her for our wedding ceremony. From our initial phone conversation to meeting in person, to the ceremony itself, Wanda accommodated our request for a secular ceremony filled with LOVE. She charmed our guests with her vivaciousness, humor, and professionalism. Many of our guests commented on how lovely the ceremony was and how the ceremony we designed with Wanda was special and unique. We wanted a simple, short ceremony that included our own vows and Wanda was very accommodating with printing out our vows on nice paper so we did not have to worry about holding on to them ourselves or losing them! I appreciated the special touch. Thank you Wanda for a fabulous ceremony – you can tell she loves her job and loves weddings; I recommend her highly if you are getting married in Connecticut!

    Wanda Chiles - Justice of the Peace's reply:

    Liz & Joe, You are a delightful and gracious couple! Thank you for the honor of being a part of your perfect day! You were a beautiful, radiant Bride with a gorgeous gown that was 100% YOU. Wishing you a lifetime filled with more love
    and happiness than you could ever imagine.

    There are not words to explain how happy I was that we chose Wanda to officiate our special day. She was such a pleasure to work with. From the moment we met her, she was warm, gracious, and professional. She was prepared and thorough in all of our interactions with her. She gave us options while being open to our ideas in order to tailor our ceremony exactly how we wanted it. She made it so easy that I was nervous-I didn’t need to do anything, which as any bride knows is not the norm! Wanda reassured me that after our meeting and conversations, she would take care of everything, and it would be beautiful. She did not disappoint! I remember thinking to myself, in the middle of our wedding ceremony, “This is so much fun! I wish I could do this every day!” Her words were just beautiful, just perfect. I loved Wanda even more after I saw our wedding video, and got to really see and hear the beautiful ceremony she crafted for us. From the opening, to the wine ceremony, to the reading by my godmother, to our vows, I was in love with every single word that Wanda said. Wedding days get so big and so busy, but really, they are about the moments when you are holding your significant other’s hands, looking into his/her eyes, and committing to your love and devotion in front of your closest family and friends. I would without hesitation recommend Wanda to be your wedding officiant. She will be responsive to you, will help you craft a ceremony that fits the two of your perfectly, and will make your ceremony one that you will never forget. She is timely, professional, and reliable. From the moment you meet her, you will feel at ease, and like you have known her forever. You will not be sorry that you chose to work with her! -Deana

    We could not have been happier with having Wanda as our JP! We searched for a long time to find someone that we wanted to meet and her numerous 5 star reviews do not lie. She was absolutely fantastic from the very first contact. When we reached out to Wanda, she responded quickly and planned to talk to us over the phone. We were in search of someone who respected our desire for a non-religious ceremony that would not be too long and would match our individual love story. We were so happy to choose Wanda and loved being able to reach out to her with any questions. She checked out all of the vendors we had chosen so far and was very in-tune with the do’s and don’ts for weddings. Since we did not have any specific readings that we wanted for our ceremony, we picked one from her favorites selection. We were very happy with our vows and everyone complemented on our perfect ceremony. The guests appreciated that they could hear and understand everything that was said even with the sounds that come with a beachside wedding (with additional props to our DJ for his equipment). She was great at collecting our marriage license before the ceremony and submitting it to the town hall in a timely manner. Even after the wedding, she responded quickly to my questions clarifying how I needed to go about getting our copies. Everything about Wanda was phenomenal and I would highly recommend her if you want someone who can help take some of the stress out of your wedding planning!

    Wanda was the perfect choice for our October wedding! As soon as we met her, it was like we had known her forever! She is so warm and friendly, hilarious, and has the ability to immediately put you at ease. We had no idea what kind of ceremony we wanted when we first sat down with her, but by the end of the meeting it was lined out to the t with no stress! We would highly recommend Wanda to anyone! She is the best!

    We used Wanda for our 10/15/17 wedding and we absolutely LOVED working with her. She is so professional and dedicated to her work and it shows in her meticulous ceremonies. She worked with us to craft our perfect ceremony, and it was everything we wanted it to be. Any time we had questions or concerns she was so quick to respond, it made us feel valued and important. Wanda made our ceremony dreams a realty!
