Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Hello! I am Jodi Peters, a thoughtful and experienced Wedding Officiant. I love to create Sweet and Simple Ceremonies tailored to fit each couple. My amazing customers over the years have been all ages, races, religions and orientations. While every ceremony is unique, I always provide the same result: a beautiful event that is stress-free and full of love. My main focus, always, is to make your ceremony perfect for you! Let’s talk about your details and preferences. I’m often asked about “hidden extras” so please know that my base fee of $265 really does cover consultations, prepping and traveling for the ceremony, customizing your vows and all details to your desire, performing the ceremony and turning paperwork in to the county. The only “extras” added when I am your Officiant would be if you want me to run a rehearsal, meet for an in-person counseling or planning session, my help getting the marriage license from the county due to unique circumstances, or for me to set up my sound system (each add $65 to the total). I am sometimes hired to be a Coordinator for the whole event which is completely different and involves a lot of managing other vendors, venues and participants. But that’s a conversation we can have if you are interested!

Jodi was amazing, very sweet and kind, she understood what we wanted sweet and simple. Before the wedding she met with us over the phone, just getting to know us, then sent over what she wrote out. Her professionalism was great, she knew what we wanted and gave us her version of vows and edited out what we didn’t want which a couple of words :) and kept in touch. Jodi knew what we wanted. She made our day special and emotional :) that we 110 percent recommend her.

Jodi was amazing! I wasn’t sure if we’d find someone available on a holiday and with such short notice but she made it happen. We appreciated her flexibility and her patience! She provided a simple outline that fit us perfectly. The ceremony was sweet and simple! It was perfect. Thank you so much! Highly recommend!

Jodie helped me plan a wedding in less than 2 weeks in quarantine and was so amazing to me and my now husband. She cares about you as an individual and took the time to really understand me and my husband’s relationship. She’s so sweet and kind.❤️

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    My degrees are in Political Science and Sociology. Most of my career has been focused on teaching (high school, adult ed and college) and writing. As part of my consulting work for non-profits, I found myself often presenting before panels or larger audiences. Having always considered myself shy, I was surprised to discover a love of public speaking. For several years now I have been honored to host events and serve as a Master of Ceremony. In 2013 I became ordained specifically to perform weddings because it brings me so much joy.

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    Young couples, mature couples, gay couples, those who want pre-marital relationship coaching and those who do not. My favorite thing is to find the right style and words to make your event perfectly suited to you.
