Where do I even begin! What an amazing woman inside and out Jeanine is! It was such a pleasure to work with her on our special day! From the beginning, Jeanine was super kind, sweet, and funny! She made our wedding ceremony so customized to us, and her wording was absolutely beautiful. From being super helpful and making us comfortable. To submitting our marriage license to the town, everything she took care of. So blessed we chose her to be our Justice of the Peace !
I LOVE Jeanine! So helpful, friendly and calm. She makes planning a ceremony easy. We also did a sand ceremony which was beautiful. Even when my 3 year old threw a tantrum in the middle of the ceremony, Jeanine held everything (including me!) together. 10/10 she's amazing!
Jeanine was such a great jp! She did a wonderful job at our ceremony! She was very on top of everything involving the ceremony and getting ready for it! I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to do our ceremony!
Jeanine was amazing to work with! She took the time to learn about us and create a personalized ceremony that told our story. She let us make adjustments to the ceremony to personalize even further. Jeanine was available to us if we needed her, sent us helpful reminders, and made us feel at ease on our wedding day.
She was a pleasure to work with and made the ceremony go smoothly.
Jeanine was absolutely amazing! Since the day we reached out to her to marry us, she answered any questions we had along the way. Jeanine also reminded us of things we needed to do, such as getting our marriage license which was a huge help during the wedding planning process. She is such a nice and warm person. Jeanine made my husband and I feel very comfortable. It seemed like we knew her for years. We highly recommend JP Jeanine and we will be referring her to friends of ours.
From our first meet until the big day we found JP Jeanine to be be very personable , open and friendly. Her suggestions for our ceremony were extremely helpful. C-19 had a big impact on our Wedding plans as you can imagine. JP Jeanine was very flexible with the multiple date changes as well as changes to the Ceremony . We are planning our Wedding Celebration in the fall. Plans are in the works with JP Jeanine on how to combined the two days together.
She is an AMAZING choice!
JP Jeanine was a fantastic officiant who was very flexible in giving us the lighthearted wedding ceremony we were looking for. She injected our personalities into the ceremony and was very helpful in orchestrating a very smooth ceremony. She was also very calming and helped to soothe our pre-wedding jitters. She was very fun to work with and we would highly recommend her!
Jeanine came highly recommended by our photographer and she didn't disappoint. We didn't want a long and drawn out ceremony and Jeanine was able to give us a short, simple and sweet ceremony. You'd be foolish not to go with Jeanine
Jeanine was awesome! She made it super easy for my husband and I to communicate with. We didn’t really have much time to meet in person so she talked with us on the phone and through emails and was always available! We wanted a quicker ceremony and she did exactly what we asked for. She made it very personal and made people laugh. We would highly recommend Jeanine!! Every step of the way she was super helpful and informative.
from the start of our encounter with Jeanine everything was amazing! she made our wedding ceremony perfect and helped us plan the ceremony even though we were so unsure of what we wanted. She did a fantastic job and we can't thank her enough!
My fiancé and I met JP Jeanine at wedding show at the Ethan Allen Hotel. We met up at a later date to discuss our ceremony and discussed our vision for the most important part of our wedding day. Jeanine helped us create the ceremony and followed our preferences perfectly. She listened to the story of our relationship and was able to tie it into the ceremony seamlessly. About a week before the wedding she emailed the ceremony to us, so there wouldn’t be any surprises. Jeanine was so helpful during the rehearsal to make sure everyone was lined up and ready to go. The day of the wedding our ceremony was performed beautifully. Thank you Jeanine! We would recommend Jeanine to anyone looking for an officiant!
We first met Jeanine while attending a wedding show and from that moment we clicked. Having to pick someone that is going to write and say some of the most important and personal words about your life is really difficult. I was struggling with the idea of a complete stranger being the spot light of one of the most important days of our lives, but then there was Jeanine! We met and chatted for a little while we laughed and connected immediately. We set up an appointment where my now husband Justin and I could sit down with Jeanine and really talk with her. We met and sat for hours! she asked questions about our relationship and families to really build a bond with us. It did not feel at all like an interview but just friends chatting around a cup of coffee. reminiscing over how we got to this point in our relationship, reliving all our happy moments. Jeanine was ALWAYS reachable, phone call, text, Facebook, email and she gets back to you right away! I was never ever left wondering or nervous about a question. We had also wanted a few special moments added to our ceremony and Jeanine was amazing about them. We had wanted a hand fasting ceremony and a special prayer added at the end. She had beautiful readings that were perfect for us like they were written just for us. she sent drafts over and was so helpful to get everything just perfect. after almost a full year planning with her our big day came. We had our rehearsal the night before and Jeanine was beyond helpful and amazing. so warm and welcoming. She took control of everything but so friendly about everything everyone's nerves were eased. she had everyone lined up and ready to go. the big day came and her ceremony was just perfect. our guests to this day still remind us how beautiful it was. Jeanine executed everything on point with such a soft warm voice. we had a wedding with over 200 guests. But when she started there was only us in that room it felt. she was speaking directly to just us. we didn't hear or see anyone else around us just Jeanine's soft voice. Jeanine you are truly an amazing person and I am so happy that our paths crossed.
JP Jeanine was very professional and friendly. Her hard work and personal touch is commendable. The vows she has written for us gave us happy tears and no one could have done it better than her. She is well organized—the perfect partner for anyone who wants to tie the knot.
Jeanine was very helpful the day before the wedding and going over everything.. she was even better the day of making sure everything went according to plan! High recommend her to anyone looking for a well planned and executed ceremony thank you Jeanine!
Jeanine is amazing. Walked you through every step of the way. She had us crying when reading our vows before the wedding and during the wedding. Could not have asked for a better JP. She is the best. Highly recommended. Super sweet and great personality.
Jeanine did a great job coordinating our wedding ceremony! She gave us plenty of informations and accommodated for every request we made. She was in constant contact and is the best value you can get in a JP. My wife and I were thrilled.
Jeanine was lovely! Our ceremony would not have been the same without her. She incorporated everything we asked her. She spoke beautiful words describing my husband and I's story. Jeanine was so helpful during this process and I cant thank her enough!! Thank you Jeanine!!
Jeanine did a wonderful job for our wedding. She listened to our love story and she made our ceremony feel special and personal. She helped us so much with our rehearsal and ensuring that everything was addressed. The day of the wedding, she made me feel calm and confident that all would go as planned. It was better than that! Thank you Jeanine for your warmth, humor and professionalism. Our guest loved our ceremony and you were such a big part of that. Thank you for making our day unforgettable! I highly recommend her! You will not be disappointed.
JP Jeanine did a fantastic job. Extremely professional, quick to respond, very organized, timely, and wonderful to work with. Really listened to what we wanted and delivered to perfection. For being a little nervous and having no real direction you can tell she is knowledgeable and experienced. In addition was beyond reasonable. No plans to do it again but if I did she is the ONLY person I would recommend. Outstanding! Thank you so much for making it a perfect day.
JP Jeanine was wonderful to work with from our first meeting. She was friendly and easy to talk to, took the time to get to know us and discuss the type of ceremony we had in mind. She answered our questions regarding the process, and helped us draft the ceremony and our vows. She had some great ideas regarding the ceremony that we wound up incorporating.
JP Jeanine was very personable, responding promptly to our messages, addressing any questions or concerns. We always knew what the next steps were and the timing of everything. With her help, the process and the ceremony were low-stress and enjoyable. We truly enjoyed working with her, and would definitely recommend her!
We contacted Jeanine on the recommendation of our wedding venue planner and are so happy we did. She did a fantastic job making our ceremony feel personal and unique to us. She has a wonderful personality and is very professional. When I wasn't sure about some details, she was patient and gave me advice. She also knew a lot about the types of shots the photographers like to get, so she guided us on things to do so that we could get the best moments!I highly recommend her!
When I first got engaged I told my now husband that I had the perfect person to officiate our wedding. Jeanine and I had been co workers a few years back and I wanted my husband to see how great she is. Jeanine met with us and we discussed how we could make our ceremony as short as possible yet meaningful and fun. Our meeting was non stop laughter and so laid back. Jeanine is very personable and very professional. She even offered to sign our ceremony for one of our guests who was deaf. We would highly recommend JP Jeanine.
Jeanine performed our ceremony over the summer this year. She was absolutely wonderful to work with. She really took the time to get to know me and my husband and to make the ceremony personal, tailored just to us! She made sure to take care of everything for us especially the certificate. She also helped us decide on some added extras during the ceremony, we did the rose ceremony, and i couldn't have been happier with this, i also have never seen anyone do this before so i liked that it was a unique idea. Again, Jeanine was excellent to work with and i highly recommend her. Thanks Jeanine for making our day special!!!!
Jeanine married my husband and I had an intimate ceremony at my parents' home. We contacted her very last minute to perform the ceremony and she was extremely responsive in getting back to us and accommodating our timeline and specifications. She personalized our ceremony for us and consulted us on the wording beforehand. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her to officiate your wedding!
Jeanine did a great job on mines and my husband wedding day her words was Beautiful and made our day special she is awesome .
I would almost want to get married again ( almost lol ) just to go through this great experience Jeanine gave us !

My husband and I knew, from the moment we met Jeanine, that she was the only one we could have officiate our wedding. While we all enjoyed our DD coffees, she asked us lots of questions and got to know us both. She took copious notes, getting all the details perfect. She wanted us to have the BEST WEDDING (2nd for us both) that we could imagine. We all laughed throughout that first meeting and we knew instantly this was the SPECIAL person who would share our most AMAZING day, in a VERY BIG way. There was no need to see anyone else. Jeanine was our girl.
When the vows were ready, Jeanine emailed a copy to each of us to look over and edit as necessary. Once we read the vows, we couldn't wait for our wedding day to arrive.
Our rehearsal was very easy and everyone felt comfortable and ready for our wedding day.
Our wedding ceremony was so SPECIAL!! Since we also had a home in Fla, we had told Jeanine we loved to go shelling while down there. She thought of us having a bowl of our hand picked shells as our guests entered the ceremony. My two grandsons asked each guest to choose a shell. During the ceremony Jeanine asked the guests to each make a special wish for us and they each placed their shell into my Grandma's special crystal bowl, as they left the ceremony. It was unbelievably BEAUTIFUL and something we will ALWAYS remember....
Needless to say, this was the wedding and officiant of our dreams...
JP Jeanine was there for every little thing I needed. She made the perfect ceremony that perfectly represented my husband and I. I could not have imagined a better ceremony. Jeanine talked me though the whole process, making sure we had gotten our marriage license, the ceremony. She even worked with me to create the perfect glass ceremony for our moms to join in. My day would not have been as perfect as it was without Jeanine!
Jeanine helped make a small ceremony with just my husband and our son so personal and special. She was so flexible with her schedule to accommodate us and made us feel so comfortable. Even though it was so cold outside when we were married, she made us feel so warm! We couldn’t have gotten anyone better for our special day.
Jeanine was wonderful! We liked her immediately when we met her and as we worked together, it was clear why. Jeanine is an absolute professional. She makes the process easy, fun, and personal to you and your spouse. Jeanine truly got to know who we were as a couple and created a Ceremony that reflected our unique personalities. We would highly recommend her services to any couple looking for an unforgettable ceremony,
We were extremely pleased with JP Jeanine. From the first meeting to discuss details of our special day to the day of the wedding, Jeanine was readily available to answer any questions we had. She planned a ceremony that was unique and personal to us, and we couldn't have been happier. We would highly recommend JP Jeanine!
JP Jeanine is such a sweetheart who cares about the couple she marries. She tries to get to know you as best as she can in your first meeting, so she is able to personalize the ceremony and make it about the COUPLE. She creates a ceremony in how you would like it, and we wanted it personalized, lovey, and humorous. It was so special in having unique things read about us for our guests to hear. We got to choose which Vows of Intent appealed to us, and we even wrote our own Wedding Vows and then asked Jeanine to have us repeat each line aloud after her so we didn’t have to hold a shaky piece of paper in front of everyone. We would highly recommend Jeanine to any couple, as her smile and friendly demeanor adds more sunshine to your special day!
Our wedding was last night and can we not say enough great things about this women! She was understanding helpful and help give us the ceremony of our dreams! She was easy going and made this whole process enjoyable! We will never forget last night and the beautiful words she spoke!
We clicked with Jeanine right away. She is so easy going and wants the ceremony to be what "you" want. She is easy to work with and responds quickly to any changes/questions. She did a great job helping us make a ceremony that was short and sweet, had a couple laughs but truly portrayed our relationship. She honestly does such a great job and everyone complimented how fun and captivating she was. She also coordinated with all of the other vendors which helped make things go smoothly
I am writing this review of my Officiant Jeanine Schirmer. Our Wedding was Oct.18, 2015. Jeanine is very professional and takes the time to get to know her Bride and Groom. We met with her to go over the details of our Ceremony and she was very thorough. She asked questions that we never thought of which helped her write our vows. We did not write our own but at the end it seemed as if we did. Jeanine incorporated our Fall theme into the Ceremony and it was beautiful. I highly recommend her services. She was always there for me when I had the littlest question and provided us with important dates which included when we should get our Marriage license. She made our day very special. I thank her for her time and expertise.
Sincerely,
The Blackwells
