Rev Jill Dillner is a warm and professional wedding officiant based in Sevierville, TN. Congratulations, and thank you for considering me as a potential officiant!
I have been performing weddings, baptisms/baby namings, and memorial services for over 15 years. I have performed over 1500 weddings, and it is still my favorite thing to do! Whether single faith, interfaith, or no-faith, your ceremony should be about your relationship and your commitment to each other. I want your ceremony to be personal, memorable, and most importantly, reflect your authentic selves.
Your officiant should be fun, flexible, and supportive. I work with my couples to create personal, spiritual, and memorable ceremonies. I will listen to your ideas, assist you with suggestions, and help you navigate the entire ceremony process.
Be sure that your officiant has the desire, energy, and personality to make your ceremony all you have hoped for and more. Check my availability here https://revdillner.com/check-availability.html

She had everyone laughing and crying during the ceremony. All guests, regardless of religious preferences came up to us afterwards just raving about Rev. Jill's ceremony.

I would give Rev Jill 7 stars if I could. We met with her to plan our ceremony, and she asked us a few questions to get a sense of what we wanted, and I could tell that we clicked ...
and that she would be perfect. I was adamant about having a non-religious ceremony, and Rev Jill had plenty of material to appease both me and my more traditional family members who expected a traditional service. She sent us a draft of the ceremony weeks in advance for us to review and gave us recommendations about what to include when we weren’t sure what we wanted to do. When we were unsure of what to do on ceremony day, she was confident and led us through everything. We got so many compliments on the ceremony, with many people saying it was the most beautiful they had ever witnessed.

She has an incredible personality and we all laughed so much at the alter. She brings everything you imagine to life. She also allows you to modify the ceremony script to your liking. She is very accepting towards LGBTQ+ and created a great bond with guests. She made the whole process smooth. Thank you Rev Jill!

Rev Jill took the time to get to know my husband and I and our families. She was open to us doing a hand fasting ceremony and everything was truly just perfect. She made our ceremony feel special and unique to us.
We also did the pre-marital counselling course she offered, and it was easy and beneficial for us!
So many happy tears were shed on our wedding day thanks to Rev Jills help! She even helped bustle my wedding dress! She's truly such a kind person and I'm so glad I chose her to help us celebrate our love.

o, we didn’t know really what to do so found her online, she was soooo quick to respond! Eventually we chatted via FaceTime to get to know one another, her humor was amazing and ability to impress was outstanding. She didn’t judge, she didn’t offer her opinion unless asked and was open to adding as many or as little religion pieces in. Then we the wedding came she came earlier than the ceremony, came to check on me, meet everyone, ask if she can grab me anything, and just wanted to help! People were saying she was helping set the table! I mean come on! She truly went above and beyond! The ceremony went sooooo well, she cracked a joke when appropriate and actually made everyone laugh and cry. Rev. Jill was truly incredible. If you’re looking for someone who will add none to a lot of religion into their ceremony, add a spice of humor, get along with everyone, and be very detailed and helpful when planning. Go with Rev. Jill, I promise you will NOT regret it.

They felt like she had known us for many months because the ceremony was so perfect for us. Jill is so well spoken and did a great job incorporating our wishes into the ceremony. We wanted a friend to do a reading and Jill's ceremony incorporated it beautifully. BOOK JILL NOW! You will not regret it :)

like, but it was more special than I could’ve ever imagined. Jill was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was everything we wanted and more. Not only does the ceremony draft make you tear up, but wait until you hear her say it at the altar on the big day. She will take your breath away and leave all your guests crying happy tears. All of our guests were asking who she was and complimenting her speaking style and our ceremony immediately following the ceremony. People are still reaching out to us wanting to share their story of how our ceremony made them feel. That speaks volumes in my book. She is amazing at what she does. She is also professional, funny, and very prompt with her responses. Do not hesitate to hire her. She will be the best decision you make. We love Jill!

The blessings that she performed and the wonderful things she said about our relationship was so fitting for us and we are so happy that she was a part of our big day. If you are looking for an officiant look no further since Rev. Jill is the best you could get. She is patient, kind, and such a pleasure to be around.

From the moment my husband and I video conferenced with Jill, we knew she was the perfect fit for our ceremony. She was so attentive and down to earth, it felt like we were talking...
to someone we had known forever. She was a great support system and helped talk us through so how to make the ceremony personal. Knowing that we wanted a hand-fasting unity ceremony, she was all in and made us all the more excited for our big day. All of the different pieces of our ceremony puzzle fell so easily into place and felt so truly special. So many family and friends came to us after our ceremony raving about how much they "Loved the ceremony and how well spoken Jill was". We could not be more thankful to have had her apart of the process and the wedding day.

eople couldn’t believe Jill wasn’t a close family friend. Not only did Jill do a great job with our ceremony she was so helpful leading up to the big day.

Rev Jill Dillner is the best and will be the best decision to you make for your wedding!

e to get to know us as a couple, and by doing that our ceremony was so personal. Her words were perfect and incorporated everything that was important to us. It was such a privilege having Jill marry us! If I could give more stars I would! Throughout the entire process she kept in touch with us, and was always available. Look no further, Jill is amazing! Our families and friends couldn't stop raving about how great our ceremony was because of her!

We received a recommendation for Rev Jill 2 months prior to our wedding date after previous arrangements did not work out. There we were in a panic when we met with Rev Jill and sh...
e could not have been a more calming soul to ease us that our wedding day would be amazing and she wasn't wrong. Our wedding guests and friends LOVED her and we were receiving compliments moments after being pronounced husband and wife. Everything was better than we could have imagined and came together perfectly thanks to Rev Jill!

I had searched far and wide for an officiant that could do a traditional handfasting ceremony. All of my leads were dead ends until I found Rev Jill on an old website and started g...
oogling to find her. We were so lucky that not only was she still practicing, but was available and very excited about my partner and I’s wants for our ceremony. In only a few meetings, Rev Jill delivered a ceremony that completely captured my partner and I and there was not a dry eye in a sea of 90 people. It was so relaxed and her words resonated in such a way that my partner and I were so present to one another. We incorporated several traditions, some Roman Catholic, some Greek Orthodox and most importantly, Celtic traditions by having a handfasting ceremony. We cannot explain the experience Rev Jill created but it was seamless and genuine. We are eternally grateful to have found her.

I am so glad we chose Rev. Jill to officiate our wedding! We were looking for someone who could flawlessly intertwine some religious aspects into a mostly secular wedding, and she ...
absolutely delivered. We met Rev. Jill only once before our wedding, but she was able to make our ceremony so personal and special. Our family members are still talking about how great she was. She was thoughtful, accommodating, heartfelt, humourous and made us feel comfortable every step of the way. She made a great effort to get to know us and what we wanted, and it showed in our ceremony. Thank you, Rev. Jill, for helping to make our wedding day perfect!

Hiring Jill as our officiant was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding. Working with her was a pleasure - she is so professional and charming. We first met h...
er via skype and instantly felt at ease with her and loved her warmth. We then met in person 7 months before our wedding and had a really fun conversation getting to know each other. She then crafted an incredibly beautiful and meaningful ceremony and worked with us to make edits until it was exactly what we we envisioned. On the day of the wedding, she helped the venue and our bridal party with coordination and then flawlessly executed the ceremony. She seamlessly blends meaningful messages and rituals with humor throughout the ceremony. She was just so charming! We can't recommend her enough; she is so worth every penny.
