felt like we knew her for years. She made the process simple and seamless. She listened to our ideas, presented us a plan, tweaked a few things we suggested and soon we had the perfect script for our day! She ran the rehearsal wonderfully then when we invited her to our rehearsal dinner she fit right like she’s was family. During our wedding she kept it light hearted and fun. We would suggest Annette to anyone getting married in the area!

at not having to worry about anything, she handled it all from communication to personalizing her speech to giving us a beautiful ceremony! She walked us through every step of the way and even though our rehearsal was our first in person meeting, we felt like we had known her for a long time! She had experience at our venue, the Grand Hotel of Cape May, and is familiar with many venues down there, which made things even easier. Don’t hesitate to go with Annette, she is fantastic!

f our questions, even down to the marriage license that we knew nothing about. Not to mention I was 1hr late to the wedding and Annette stood there patiently waiting with my husband, I’m sure they both were keeping each other entertained. I highly recommend Annette and her expertise. Thank you so much for adding your light to our ceremony, it was more than I expected.

t married on September 27th 2020 of this crazy year and even though we did not have to reschedule our wedding thankfully .. it was still a very stressful time for us when planning a wedding during a pandemic.
Annette made us feel at ease and always was fast to respond to any questions we had.
When we wanted to include my husband’s children into our vows and didn’t know the right thing to do and say she came up with good ideas to help us!
On the day of the wedding she was very organized and all of our guests had nothing but great things to say about our officiant!
She did an outstanding job!

We originally had our ceremony planned to be in Cape May and had booked Annette over a year in advance. However, due to COVID, our plans totally changed and we got married closer t...
o home in Bradley Beach. Annette was AMAZING and even agreed to travel to us (2 hours away!!) and did an INCREDIBLE ceremony. All of our family and friends were so impressed with how personal, fun, and sweet our ceremony was. Annette was with us every step of the way and helped us to make the script for the ceremony exactly what we wanted. We had a combined Jewish/Christian wedding and she blended and honored the two faith backgrounds in such a lovely way.
Due to covid (blah) we had to postpone our wedding. At first we were just going to wait until next year (the date we HAD to reschedule) but then decided to have a small ceremony. O...
ur original officiant was not able to perform the ceremony so about 2 /12 weeks before our date, I found Annette. Already feeling the pressure, Annette was great! Very reasonable in price. Communication was done through email with a call before the wedding which was all fine with me. Wishing the emails were a bit more prompt (but that could have just been my nerves and me being on edge). But Annette performed the service beautifully. Provided the flow of the ceremony before the wedding and everything went smoothly. Would definitely recommend you to choose Annette to officiate!
My fiancee and I went through hell and back planning this wedding and even on the day we were going crazy an Annette was just great. When we had our first meeting she explained the...
basics of how she does her ceremony and was very open and receptive to adding any ideas or suggestions that we had. She was also very helpful with telling us how to apply for our license and gave us sample ceremonies so we had a better idea. Before this, we had only been to one wedding so we had no idea what to do. We weren't able to have a rehearsal and yet she still performed the ceremony beautifully and adapted to any. changes we had. Annette is very personable and easy to talk to and everyone complimented how beautiful our ceremony was. I would definitely recommend Annette to be your wedding officiant. She makes the process simple and painless and the outcome was beautiful. Her knowledge and personality made it so easy and refreshing. Our wedding was better than we could have even imagined and Annette was a HUGE reason for that and that is why I highly recommend her.
Annette made our wedding ceremony so much more beautiful and calming. Being in such a crowded room with so many eyes looking at you can be intimidating but she made the entire proc...
ess easy. We came to her last minute and asked her to add personal things into our ceremony and she did it with no problem. There was no confusion at all and she was amazing! She truly takes your fears and hopes for your wedding day into consideration and makes everything exactly how you want it. We are so happy we went with Annette for our wedding. She was amazing!
We threw our wedding together in just two weeks and are so grateful we found Annette! She did a wonderful job making our wedding day perfect. After speaking to my husband and I bri...
efly, she came up with beautiful vows that perfectly suited us. The ceremony was warm, personal, and romantic. Annette made everything so easy and simple. We could not have asked for a better officiant!
As everyone knows, there's a lot of stress & anxiety in planning a wedding & w/o knowing Annette prior to booking her, she put our minds @ ease throughout the entire process. She'...
s very personable & friendly & just has a special way about her that comes naturally. When talking on the phone for the 1st time & then meeting in person the following week, we felt as if we were longtime friends catching up. She was very thorough & informative on explaining the entire process of our ceremony & was very interested in getting to know us more so she could personalize our day in making it that much more special. We met again the week prior to our wedding day for review & she was very prepared & organized. On our wedding day, she was the 1st person to greet me, nervous yet excited bride to be, with this big big smile. She played a special part in making our day the best day ever & we are so thankful & grateful to have chosen Annette to make our day that much more beautiful. Thank u so much Annette. ❤

My husband and I could not have found a better officiant for our big day! Annette took the time to meet with us twice. First, to find out the particular style ceremony we wanted ...
to have and the second time to go over all the ceremony details to make sure that it would be perfect. We had a very small, intimate ceremony at a South Jersey restaurant. Our wedding was everything and more to us – an amazing wedding! Our families were very happy too! Thank you so much Annette for helping to make our wedding loving and memorable. Peggy & Frank
