Reverend Jen was everything we could have hoped for and more. If I could give her more than five stars, I truly would. My husband is an immigrant currently in the U.S. under Tempor...

ary Protected Status and is still learning English. From the start, Reverend Jen was kind, compassionate, and incredibly understanding of our unique situation. She welcomed us into her beautiful home for the ceremony and, with so much thoughtfulness, arranged for her son-in-law to help officiate by translating so my husband could be fully present for every moment of our vows. Even with the rain, our wedding day felt perfect — full of love, light, and meaning. Reverend Jen brought not just grace and warmth, but the kind of care that made us feel like more than just clients. She wasn’t just our officiant — she felt like family. We’ll always be grateful to her for helping make our day so special and unforgettable.

what exactly we wanted out of a ceremony and she chose the perfect poems, vows, and prayer just for us. My step son was included in the whole process and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. It was completely perfect!

If I can be of further assistance, please let me know. Rev. Jen
