Fantastic experience with Jon.
My husband and I got married in August 2024, so we are a little late in writing this review, but the nice part is getting to reflect all these months later and still feeling the ex...
act same as if our wedding was just yesterday! Jon is professional, kind, pretty much always available for questions/concerns, very knowledgeable, and was overall just a pleasure to work with! We really didn't know what we were doing as far as planning our vows and flow of the ceremony and his experience certainly speaks for itself. From the beginning planning stages to the execution the day of, everything was thorough, easy, and he is super flexible if changes are necessary at any point. He took the time to get to know us so the ceremony was genuine. He was able to incorporate what we felt was an appropriate amount of humor while keeping it sentimental and wedding ceremony appropriate. For the quality of the service received, his fee is unbeatable. We highly recommend Jon and could not have imagined our wedding with anybody else!
