We hired Jeff DeMarco as the Justice of the Peace for our wedding on October 12, 2024 at Atkinson Resort and Country Club. Throughout the planning process, Jeff was knowledgeable, professional, and kind. About a month before our wedding, he sent us a draft of our personalized wedding ceremony and was able to accommodate any changes or additions we requested, including a special handfasting ceremony. He also sent us a helpful reminder to get our marriage license and took care of sending it to the correct people. On the day of our wedding, Jeff arrived on time and checked in with us briefly before the ceremony. He did a great job as our JP, even staying calm when a gust of wind knocked out his mic for a few minutes during our outdoor ceremony and continuing as if nothing had happened! We received many compliments from our guests on how beautiful the ceremony was and how great our JP did. I would highly recommend Jeff DeMarco to anyone looking for a Justice of the Peace to officiate their wedding!
Jeff did an amazing job for our Wedding ceremony. His speech was beautiful and many guests came up to me after saying how much they enjoyed it! Jeff helped to make our day special and magical. I truly appreciate his help throughout the process. Thank you!
Jeff was awesome. We got married on 6/17/23 and he made it so simple and sweet-exactly as we asked him too. We wanted something short but meaningful and Jeff did exactly that. He was super easy to work with, timely with responding to emails and took a lot of stress off of us. Many of our guests complemented on what an excellent job he did. He smiled throughout the entire ceremony and made this part of wedding uncomplicated. We would recommend Jeff to everyone!
Jeff was so wonderful putting together our ceremony in less than two weeks. Ourselves and guests were touched by his words as well as his warmth and caring. Thank you Jeff.
Jeff was always super helpful and accommodating! He made sure everything was perfect and what we wanted and made us feel so comfortable through everything! I can’t imagine our special day without Jeff! He is truly the best :)
Jeff was an amazing JP! He wrote a beautiful ceremony piece and told our story. His words seemed effortless. We highly recommend him!
Jeffrey crafted us a beautiful and personal wedding ceremony after just one meeting with us, and delivered it flawlessly on our wedding day! Jeffrey made the process so easy and fun that when we met we felt like we were talking to a friend. We felt so lucky we could put our trust in Jeffrey on our wedding day to ensure the ceremony was a success. Jeffrey also shared guidance for obtaining our marriage license, which we found very helpful.
Jeff was enthusiastic, exuded positivity, and maintained a good spirit as we reworked our wedding amidst the pandemic. He was helpful in all conversations leading up to our big day, and told us that "your wedding will be beautiful no matter what" and it was nothing short of that. The ceremony that he performed was perfectly tailored to us as a couple. You could tell he was invested in our story, and despite us feeling overwhelmed with changing our wedding plans, he kept calm and kept assuring us that the day would be great no matter what.
Thank you again Jeff, for making our marriage as special as possible. You only had a few weeks to work with, but you made the day one we and our families will never forget for the rest of our lives.
Jeff was absolutely amazing! My husband and I grew up with two different religions so when we got engaged, the big question on who was going to marry us was tough as both sets of parents wanted something different. Well we went to a food tasting at our wedding venue where we met Jeff, and after talking to him briefly my husband and I knew instantly he was the one to marry us. Jeff was very understanding to our needs, very personable and sweet. Jeff definitely help make our dream wedding ceremony come true. so true, that the morning of the wedding, my husband decided last minute to do something special for my daughter his step daughter, and Jeff made it happen. He did not get mad, upset or stressed about altering the ceremony a little bit, but Jeff with confidence in his smile helped my husband make it happen. and boy did it bring tears to not just myself, but every one of our guests. Jeff definitely knows how to make the not so common situation into something remember able. my husband and I cannot be more thankful for someone so perfect like Jeff, to not only marry us but to help make our day perfect.
Jeff was great to work with and very professional. He helped us design the perfect ceremony for us.
Jeff did an amazing job officiating our recent wedding even in the 100 degree heat! I was worried the ceremony would take too long but he made it the perfect length without sounding rushed at all. I loved everything he put into our ceremony. He customized it based on our story and he was very accommodating when we wanted to make a few changes. I am so glad we chose Jeff to be our JP. He really knows what he is doing and is extremely organized. I can tell he enjoys what he does. Thank you Jeff!
Jeff was fantastic from the very beginning! When we met him at his house it felt like we’ve known him for a long time because he just makes you feel that at ease and comfortable. He really takes the time to get to know you as a couple, and writes the most beautiful ceremony. We got so many compliments the whole night on how beautiful the whole ceremony was because of how wonderful Jeff said everything. We couldn’t have picked a better man to marry us, and we’re so grateful he agreed to marry us, too!
From the moment we met Jeff, my husband and I knew we were going to pick him to be our officiant. He did such a great job at our wedding and made our ceremony personal and special. Two of my bridesmaids and also one of our family members had Jeff as their officiant as well and all said how wonderful he was to work with. We can't thank Jeff enough for everything and would highly recommend him!!
Jeff was so friendly and excellent to work with! He helped us customize our ceremony and made it both personal and memorable! He takes the time to get to know the bride and groom and made us feel very comfortable on our wedding day! I would highly recommend him!
Jeff was an absolute pleasure to work with! He spent a good amount of time with us via video chat to get to know us and our story, and worked that into our ceremony to give it a personalized feel. He was very flexible on what we wanted him to wear and how we wanted the ceremony to go, and we ended up with a ceremony that felt very much like us - unfussy and sincere. It was great working with Jeff and I would recommend him to anyone getting married in New Hampshire.
We would absolutely recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a Justice of the Peace! We got so many compliments on our ceremony and were extremely happy with his services. He sat down with us several months before our wedding and explained how everything was going to play out. He took the time to get to know us and really listened to what we were looking for. Then as we got closer to our date, he sent us reminders on things we had to do like get our marriage license and finalize our ceremony with him. This was very helpful when you have a million other things to remember all at the same time. We had a few specialized items that we added to our ceremony, like a reader and someone to bring up our rings and he incorporated them in seamlessly. Each section of the ceremony was very meaningful without making the ceremony too long. We can not say enough good things about Jeff! You will not be disappointed if you have him officiate your wedding.
Jeff was amazing! We met up with him 8 months before our wedding to get to know each other and go over what we were looking for in a ceremony. Jeff asked us questions about each other, such as how we met, in order to incorporate that into our ceremony. This was a huge reason we wanted Jeff to officiate for us, because of the personalized touches. Jeff is also a very nice guy and a very good speaker. Closer to the wedding, Jeff sent us a couple of drafts for the ceremony, which we worked with him to many any changes. Jeff executed our ceremony perfectly; I really enjoyed listening to Jeff and thought it was very personal and emotional. Our guests loved it too! I highly recommend Jeff to officiate your special day!
Jeff was our JP at our wedding this past January 2018. My pastor was going to officiate but had a family emergency and we had to find an officiant at the last minute. Jeff was recommended by our venue - Atkinson Resort & Country Club and he did an amazing job. You can tell he has a passion for marrying couples when you first meet with him. Since we had less than a month to prep, he made sure we were on schedule and had our vows written. He made sure to incorporate all the elements that we wanted to do for our ceremony.
I highly recommend Jeff to anyone. He is very passionate and professional. Also our other vendors praised him highly so it made us feel great that we had an awesome team on our wedding day. Thank you Jeff for being apart of our day and making it special!
Jeff was awesome!! He was professional, very accommodating, and friendly. You can tell he really enjoys marrying couples. He makes it a point to get to know you and for you to get to know him. He personalizes every ceremony he does and you can tell he puts a lot of thought into it. He will send you a draft of the ceremony a few months before the wedding and you can make any changes you'd like but for us we barely made any because it was perfect! He makes himself available to you whenever you have questions or need help. After our ceremony he gave us a framed keepsake marriage certificate and our ceremony typed up which was an AWESOME surprise!! We are SO happy that we booked Jeff as our justice of the peace! He goes above and beyond and is an all around great guy!
Jeffrey made our wedding perfect! His goal is to take care of everything and make everything go smooth for you no matter what. He outlined a wonderful ceremony for us and let us put our own stamp on it as well. He has so much experience which helped when my fiance and I took the wrong rings for the ring exchange! Jeff didn't miss a beat and had us switch, I'm certain that a less experienced JP would have missed that! Highly recommend Jeffrey, he even came to our rehearsal which put my mind at ease going into the day of the wedding.
We couldn't have asked for a better officiant for our wedding. Jeff was professional, personable, and he made the process so easy from beginning to end! You can tell he really cares about the couples he marries - he took the time to learn our relationship history, provided suggested readings when asked, and allowed us to review and make changes to the ceremony draft prior to our wedding (not that we needed to change much - Jeff pretty much nailed it). After our ceremony, he surprised us with a keepsake "marriage certificate" (which was a nice stand-in until we got the real thing!) as well as a printed copy of our ceremony/readings/etc. On top of everything else, the price was a bargain! In fact, Jeff was so familiar with our venue and its coordinators that he assured us we wouldn't need him at our rehearsal (he was right) and therefore saved us even more money. We appreciated that he wasn't trying to milk us for as much money as possible, which seems to be a common practice in the wedding industry. Thank you Jeff for making our day as special as possible!
Jeffrey was the best choice to officiate our wedding. He worked with us to put together the perfect ceremony, and accommodated all the changes that we made. He gave us so many options to make sure that we had a completely personal ceremony. He was comforting before the ceremony to say the least, and even took time to visit me in the bridal suite. Can't say enough about the service we were provided from him, but we would recommend him to anyone!
Jeff provided us with plenty options, listened to us and helped us through the process. He made us feel comfortable and confident. He communicated well and our ceremony was excellent. We highly recommend Jeff!
Jeff is a truly wonderful Justice of the Peace, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a JP for their big day! He is very personable and professional, and goes out of his way to get to know all couples. He even gave us a framed copy of our wedding certificate and a booklet of our vows and left them on our sweetheart table! What a nice gesture (that is just the type of person he is).
We just had our wedding yesterday and were so happy that we chose Jeff to be our justice of the peace. He did such an amazing job incorporating everything we wanted into the ceremony. He was always available to talk to and got back to me quickly. All of our guests complimented Jeff's ability to be personable and engaging. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great justice of the peace.
Jeff was spectacular! He met with my (then) fiance and I to get to know us, and to create a very personalized ceremony. He offered lots of possibilities.. Suggestions were nice, since we were pretty clueless to the process. For example, did we want "God" mentioned? any special ceremonies (ie sand, unity candle)? After sending us a first draft of the ceremony, he encouraged us to make as many changes as we wanted to make it our own. The day of the wedding he was a source of calm for my nervous fiance waiting for his late bride. Many of our guests commented on what a fabulous job he did- Engaging, personal, not too wordy, but just enough to make our ceremony special and memorable. Jeff was very responsive and professional throughout the process. Most of all, he clearly LOVES what he does. I recommend him without reservation.. He's the best!!
Jeff DeMarco performed our ceremony. The words and sentiments were beautiful. I absolutely loved our vows. Jeff gave us ideas for things to do during the ceremony. We decided to do the wine box ceremony. Guests enjoyed the ceremony and the wine box part. He was very helpful through the planning process and answered e-mails promptly. He worked with us to make the ceremony personal. I would absolutely recommend Jeff!
Jeff was fantastic from the very beginning. He took the time to get to know the both of us in a meeting at his home. We felt comfortable with him and he was easy to talk to. The ceremony was beautiful and exactly how we imagined it would be. He has a great personality and although we had a small ceremony at our home without the use of a microphone, all of our guests were able to hear the ceremony.
My husband and I immediately connected with Jeff when we met him. He is extremely organized and really does a great job making the wedding about you. He has a wide selection of wedding readings that made the ceremony process easy and meaningful. I especially loved his handouts about how to get a wedding licence and how to change your name after the wedding. We highly recommend Jeff DeMarco to be the JP of your wedding.
Jeff was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process of our wedding. He was there to answer all the questions I had and he was happy to do it. He showed us the ceremony multiple times and changed it as we wished. The day of the wedding he talked to each of us before and calmed us down as we were nervous. He did a phenomenal job at the ceremony, he spoke with such ease and professionalism. He spoke clearly and his words about my husband and I were perfect. I highly recommend him to anyone getting married and who wants their ceremony to be comfortable and fun.
He made my ceremony unique and wonderful. It was beautiful and memorable. He went above and beyond for us. I wouldn't pick any other JP for my wedding if I could do it again.
Jeff was so wonderful to work with! He made a lot of the stressors go away and really helped us focus on what is important, US!! He is great, because he makes your ceremony all about you and really dedicates his time to make your day so special!! My husband,Eric and I cannot thank him enough for all of the hard work he put it to make our wedding so great! Jeff is very easy to work with and flexible with everyone's busy schedules!! We can't thank him enough!!!
Jeffrey did a wonderful job planning our ceremony. He had a good base from which to work and let us incorporate our own stories and readings to personalize it. My whole family was touched by his "Hands Ceremony." Jeffrey understands what marriage is about and helped to make our day very special. I was hesitant about having a stranger marry us, but after we met him, we knew we had made the right choice. Our ceremony was perfect for us!
we are SO pleased with Jeff as our officiant. He was always prompt with answering questions either over the phone, or via e-mail. He is flexible. He guides you through the whole process of ceremony, license & certificate, and even changing name. He allows the bride & groom to customize their ceremony. Thank you for recommending the wine box ceremony to us!! It was so special!! He also gave us a special gift after the ceremony to keep & cherish forever. You meet to go over the ceremony details before the wedding, and it is a great meeting. Informative & relaxing. Thank you so much Jeff! We absolutely love you!
Jeffery DeMarco is an amazing JP. We didn't meet him until pretty close to our wedding, but he was willing to help us. The best part is that he makes a ceremony unique to you. He starts with a few basic questions to get to know you and then creates a ceremony based on you. After that you can revise it to your liking to make it YOURS and that is something that should be really important to everyone. He made our day special.
we had jeff for our wedding in June/11. He was helpful through the while process, with suggestions, reminders and helpful advice. He was familiar with a lot of ceremony options and we were able to include and make our ceremony unique. We got a lot of complements on the service!!! and i thought the incorporation of the wine box into the ceremony was perfect for our vineyard wedding.
