We had a great time working with Jill to create our wedding ceremony. We loved getting to know here and share our story with her so that she could create a custom ceremony for us. ...
Jill was very communicative throughout the entire process and was overall lovely to work with. We got lots of compliments on our ceremony and we loved how it was custom and unique to us.
It was such a pleasure working with Jill! She offered us an in person chat or a zoom meeting and due to where we live we met on zoom. During the zoom call she got to know a bit abo...
ut me and my husband. Then we filled out her questionnaires. It was a bit surprising how long it took to fill out those questions, but obviously it was all well worth it. The ceremony script she created was personalized to us and our story. It felt genuine and allowed us to forgo the stress of writing our own vows. She emailed us everything prior to the wedding so we could make sure we approved. When my husband read the script for the first time he was so moved that he began crying. She was super sweet in person and helped things run smoothly at our rehearsal. A fantastic experience and I would recommend her wholeheartedly!
Jill stood out to me from the very first message she sent. She was warm, knowledgable, and thoughtful. Meeting with her in person, I knew she would be the perfect officiant for us....
She really takes time to get to know you as a couple, and captured our love story so well. I can't recommend Jill enough!

mazed at how touching and personal our wedding ceremony was. One of our guests said it was the best ceremony they had ever been a part of. Throughout the wedding planning process (for 2 years) Jill was always there to lend advice when needed and paid close attention to the small details. I highly recommend Jill for any wedding celebrations!
Jill was the officiant at our wedding, and truly a delight to work with. We wanted a warm ceremony that truly reflected us, and Jill's process for creating one was a wonderful, ref...
lective activity during a very hectic engagement period! As a bride I was extremely nervous about the ceremony and its tone, but Jill's professionalism and thoroughness assuaged all of my worries. She wrote a moving ceremony script, was responsive to our edits, and delivered it beautifully at our wedding. We can't recommend her highly enough!
Jill officiated out wedding on 11/30/2019. We knew Jill was the perfect fit for us from our first meeting with her. She has such a warm and loving presence that we had an instant c...
onnection with. Throughout the planning process, Jill really took the time to get to know us and our love story and she really customized the ceremony based on what is important to us. She truly made our wedding magical. I recommend her to anyone who's in need of an officiant!
I chose Jill to be our officiant based on the instant draw I had to her over the phone. Her presence is calming and cheerful. She draws her inspiration from the personality of her ...
clients and you can that she carefully crafts each word of her script to accurately reflect her experience and perception of the couple. I received SO many compliments on our ceremony - guests loved Jill's thoughtful words, light hearted presence and the fact that they could tell she spoke from a genuine place as she shared about our love story and connection. Jill we can't thank you enough! You made us feel comfortable in a situation that took us out of our comfort zone and the love was felt throughout the room.
Jill officiated our wedding early October and we were so happy with everything. When we met Jill in person, we knew right away she was a good fit for this important moment in our l...
ives as she was extremely personable and really tried to get to know our story to make that the focus of the ceremony. We had a get to know you phone call and then sat with her for a couple of hours and chatted and she asked such great questions to get to know us! Many, many people came to us during our cocktail hour and commented on how much they loved the ceremony and were impressed by our officiant! The only small tweak we would have made would have been going through everything 2-3 times during the rehearsal instead of just once! The rehearsal was only about ~20 mins and when we were up there for the ceremony we forgot which way to turn at one point but Jill realized and handled it expertly. So grateful for Jill and her writing and speaking capabilities!!!
Jill was fantastic. As soon as we had our first meeting with her, we both left immediately knowing we wanted her as our officiant. Her script was so thoughtful, the ceremony felt j...
ust like us. Jill is so kind and patient and we would recommend her to anyone for a personalized ceremony. It was a pleasure Jill - can't thank you enough! You even had me crying, haha!
Jill was easy to work with and took the time to get to know us. She customized our vows and made them special for our ceremony. We highly recommend using her for your wedding!
Jill Brown performed our ceremony and she did an awesome job. We put off finding our officiant until only a few months before our wedding. So we were very happy when we found Jill....
We knew once we met with her and discussed what we wanted for the ceremony she was definitely meant to be our officiant. She is genuine, down to earth and very professional. Jill took the time to get to know us and wrote an absolutely wonderful personalized ceremony. I received a ton of compliments from our guests. Even though we opted not to do a religious ceremony Jill made sure it was still a special and unique part of our day. I highly recommend hiring Jill for your wedding. She set the tone for an amazing day!!!
Jill was just wonderful. From start to finish, she was enthusiastic and professional. The ceremony she wrote for us was beautiful -- it truly reflected who we are and some great hi...
ghlights of our love story. We are still receiving comments from friends and family who said that our ceremony was perfectly unique and one they will never forget!!
My fiancé and I met Jill about a year ago. We met her at a Panera downtown and the rest was history. We hit it off from the start. Jill just “got” my husband (then fiancé) and I. P...
eople would ask me why didn’t I just get a friend or a JOP to do our ceremony and I would respond, “because WE want something different”, meaning we wanted a celebrant. Jill was receptive to the vision that we had for our ceremony and executed it beyond our expectations. She wrote an amazing love story about us based on our talks and email communication. Throughout the process, she got to know us as individuals and as a couple. We received so many compliments after our wedding ceremony, mostly how our ceremony wasn’t cookie cutter and that it described us as a couple perfectly. I would 100% recommended Jill for anyone looking for a trusted celebrant!! She was my favorite vendor throughout the wedding planning process
