The best money you will ever spend! Michele was a life saver during my wedding. It was destination so we were coming from a very very long ways away and she made everything so smooth. She set up the ceremony sight, cued the music and helped us know when to walk!! The ceremony script she put together was so perfect, we laughed and cried! She assisted with photos and with making sure the reception went perfectly. With every hiccup or problem that arose she was there with a solution. If you are getting married in New Orleans Michele is who you want on your side. 10 stars if I could
Working with Michele was a pleasure. She was communicative, helpful, and a steadying presence the entire way and helped to bring so many of the DIY elements of our wedding to life. In communicating with our vendors and making sure they adhered to our contracts, she also noticed a potential pitfall coming from one of our vendors cutting things too close and she resolved the issue so it all went smoothly the day of. I highly recommend working with her for any of your wedding needs!
Michele was outstanding!! I hired her not only as my officiant but my day of coordinator. When I tell you she was so on top of everything!!! I didn’t have to worry about a thing and it was the most easy flowing and coordinated experience one could have on their big day. As an officiant she exceeded my expectations she reached out to offer different styles her script was so heartfelt and just fit us so well. I did not have one stressor on my big day at all! Everything was as perfect as it could have been. We did New Orleans as a destination wedding and she even went above and beyond to deliver our stuff to the hotel so I could travel to the French Quarter for my second line parade! She is the absolute best and just an amazing human being. I followed her on social media for a year before hiring her. When I say she is the best I mean it!! 🥰
Michele was amazing. Very nice to work with! Wrote the best ceremony script for us & even mailed our marriage license for us. Don’t think just book!!!!
I worked with Michele and her assistant for my March 2024 wedding. She provided day of coordinator services for our wedding. It was nice to hand over everything to her a few weeks ahead of time. She worked with vendors on their drop-off and pick-up times. She checked in with me the week of on how things were going. She ran our rehearsal.
I cannot say how much she did the day of because my maid of honor took my phone and fielded all the calls. Together with Michele they made adjustments and decisions without me having to think about anything but feeling relaxed :-)
Our second line pedi-cabs were a know show. Michele was on top of it from the beginning. She even worked with the police escorts to get approval for us to have a car drive behind the crowd for my dad to still be a part of it <3
Michele was nothing short of amazing, crafting a wedding ceremony that was as unique and special as our love story. From our first meeting, she dedicated herself to understanding us as a couple, our journey, and what we envisioned for our day. Her professionalism and warmth made us feel immediately at ease, trusting her to encapsulate the essence of our relationship.
The custom script she created was a masterpiece of personalization, weaving our individual stories, beliefs, and dreams into a narrative that resonated deeply not only with us but with every guest in attendance. Her eloquence and heartfelt delivery brought tears, laughter, and joy, making the ceremony the highlight of our day. Her ability to engage and connect with everyone present turned our ceremony into a profoundly memorable experience.
Beyond the script, her guidance and support throughout the planning process and on the day were invaluable. She navigated us through the complexities of crafting vows and the intricacies of ceremony logistics with ease and grace. Her professionalism shone through in every interaction, ensuring that the ceremony flowed smoothly and was a true reflection of us as a couple.
Our guests have not stopped talking about how beautiful and touching the ceremony was, attributing much of its success to our officiant's skill and dedication. She didn't just officiate our wedding; she enriched it with her passion, talent, and commitment to celebrating love in its most authentic form.
We are beyond grateful to have had her as our officiant and cannot recommend her highly enough. She made our wedding not just an event, but a heartfelt celebration of our love that we and our guests will remember forever.
If you are looking for a wedding officiant, look no more! Michele did an absolutely amazing job helping me throughout the whole process. She is considerate, respectful, and extremely professional. She answered any questions that I had, and was eager to help. Our ceremony was a perfect representation of my husband and I, and we are forever thankful for her services provided!
Michelle was a dream to work with! Clear and immediate communication, professional all of the things. What makes her so special is her genuine approach and personal touch. Highly recommend.
My husband and I could not be happier choosing Michele as our officiant. We decided to elope with about a week and a half notice and she was so accommodating! Super helpful with suggesting ceremony spots, guidance on everything we needed to do on our end, and amazing local hair/makeup/floral/photography recommendations. Michele was great and we'd highly recommend her to anyone looking to get married!!
Michele was our officiant at our intimate destination wedding this past Thursday and hiring her was easily one of the best decisions we made! Michele is phenomenal and went over every detail of the ceremony with us to make sure it felt personal and just the way we wanted it prior to the day and then ran our ceremony seamlessly with such natural grace and kindness. I would highly recommend her over and over again! ♥️
Michele was lovely. She was so easy to work with and respected and honored all of our wishes for our ceremony. I even received several compliments from family and friends who shared how much they loved what she said during our ceremony.
Michele was our officiant and day-of coordinator recently for our wedding and her services were hands-down the best money spent towards our wedding. She was always 10 steps ahead and clearly knows all the ins and outs of how a wedding should run smoothly. Having her there meant my new husband and I got to enjoy our wedding to the fullest and not sweat about the details getting done. Even our guests were blown away by her. She went above and beyond and we're so grateful.
Michele was an absolute pleasure to work with! She put together an incredible ceremony, she arrived to the venue timely, and helped ensure that we had what was needed for our marriage license. Our friends and family also had nothing but great things to say about Michele.
Michele was nothing but professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and kind the entire time my husband and I worked with her. If you are looking for an inclusive and professional officiant to make sure your Ceremony goes smoothly then look no further! I can't say enough wonderful things about how Michele made sure the ceremony went off without a hitch.
We used Michelle as our Day of Coordinator and she was amazing. She was responsive as soon as I hired her. She gave vendor recommendations and worked with us tirelessly to get the timeline correct. She was great at pivoting when we had to moved the location of our first look. HIGHLY RECCOMMEND!
Michele was amazing and I would absolutely recommend her! Michele was professional, easy to communicate with, and did an amazing job on the wedding day!
Michele is incredible yall. My husband & I searched far and wide for an officiant and we couldn't for the life of us decide on who it should be. Once we finally spoke to Michele though, we knew it had to be her. She is extremely personable, kind, professional, and punctual. We had no concerns with working with her. She even worked with me to add a nod to my sister in our script as she wasn't able to be with us on our big day. She took care of all of the mailing of the marriage certificate information, and made the process extremely easy for us. And though this may seem trivial, we didn't even need to go over with her to move to the side before our picture as husband & wife. That woman moves with a quickness!! haha We are SO thankful we found her, our wedding day would've been a mess without her! Thank you Michele!!
I can't say enough good things about Michelle! She was so wonderful throughout the entire process. From helping us customize our own vows to incorporating our personality & traditions into the ceremony, she made it absolutely wonderful!
Michele, with Just Married Y'all, was absolutely amazing. I used her company for my daughter's wedding in March 2023. From our first conversation, I knew I had made the right choice. She walked us through the entire process and explained all the details. She officiated the ceremony and it was so beautiful, capturing every precious moment possible. Her wedding message was exactly what we expected, expressing beautifully the unity of marriage.
I would definitely recommend Michele, with Just Married Y'all, to everyone looking for a beautiful wedding experience.
When we were choosing an officiant I can be honest and say that I didnt know what I wanted or needed but I can also say that Michele was exactly the right person. We got so lucky in finding her because she made everything so easy. I was planning our New Orleans wedding from California and relied on the knot reviews and the internet to do research. I am shocked how many vendors have ugly or confusing/outdated websites. When my husband and I met with Michele over the phone the first time I had a really great sense of who she was and how she really just felt like being involved in weddings was something she truly loved doing. It was important to me to find someone who was a little less traditional and open minded since we are not religious and didnt want that kind of ceremony. Michele wrote a beautiful short and sweet script for us and on the wedding day she helped ease our minds before the ceremony as we both felt a bit nervous. She is kind, friendly, confident and thoughtful. I was very happy she was a part of our big day! (also great to know she has a background in wedding planning and could give advice about other wedding vendors we used in the area as a second opinion)
Michele Zeller with Just Married, Y'all is phenomenal!!
She coordinated the day of and final weeks leading up to my wedding and I couldn’t have been more pleased!! I was planning from out of state and needed help with the smaller details and day of coordination. The day went so incredibly smoothly and I did not have to worry about a single thing thanks to her oversight.
I could not recommend her enough!!
We were so lucky to have Michelle officiate our wedding ceremony. We came from out of state and were married right after New Years. With it being a holiday weekend, the vital records offices were closed multiple days making it hard to get our marriage license when we needed it. Michelle went out of her way to meet us at the vital records office to witness signatures of the marriage license. We couldn't be more thankful. Not to mention how wonderful our special day went in the first place. Thanks again!!
I can't say enough about how great Michele was!! She kept us calm, organized and on schedule. She has a great personality and was truly amazing to work with. Couldn't have done it without her :)
Michelle was awesome to work with. She made everything move smoothly, was proactive in noticing what was needed and kept us on track without our even realizing she was doing it. We wholeheartedly recommend her!
Michele is an absolute angel!!! After not being able to get in touch with my original officiant, with less than two weeks notice, Michelle was able to come to the rescue. She was so sweet and kind during the entire process. She communicated well and produced a beautiful script for the ceremony. As much as you don't wish for anything bad to happen for your wedding, I am GRATEFUL for the way things played out and that we were able to have Michele officiate ours. It is a day I will never forget.
Michele was absolutely amazing to work with. She was extremely easy going and helped us think of all the little things we were missing. She put me at ease in helping us prepare for our day, organize our ceremony and she was a calm and welcoming presence on our special day.
Extremely professional and the best Nola has to offer. If you are an out of town bride, you want Michele and all her connections! She will help you have the perfect ceremony and even day of coordinating. I will always recommend Michele for anyone getting married in the Nola area!
Best decision ever to use Michelle with “just married ya’ll” very experienced and after speaking with her she put me at ease and all the pieces to my special day fell right into place
