Mary Jean brings a special sort of serene magic to a ceremony. One that calms the bride and groom while bringing all their loved ones' focus to the ceremony, culminating this beautiful energy bonding two people in marriage for life. Can not recommend Mary Jean highly enough.

Mary Jean's heart, compassion, professionalism and services are simply unrivaled. As a former wedding planner, she was my number 1 go-to officiant. I'm so happy to hear she has expanded her business to include planning and coordination services. Do not have any hesitation to include Mary Jean in your important event - she is a star!

Mary Jean went above and beyond in everything she did. I came to Thumbtack not having a clue where to begin finding someone to marry us out of state. MJ stayed in contact the entire time and made things so much easier on us. I am so grateful that we found some one so genuinely interested in helping make our day so special. We would highly recommend Mary Jean for your special day!

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    When Hiring a Wedding Officiant it is important to choose someone you feel comfortable with and who you know will take good care of you. Ask questions about what their service includes and how much experience they have. For instance, many officiants will not offer rehearsal services because they feel it is not financially rewarding enough. I offer rehearsal services and can not only be present, but because i have wedding planning experience, I can also run the rehearsal for couples who have not engaged a wedding planner. At A Ceremony of the Heart, we also offer Wedding Planning Services and can provide a package including those services. Ask for references or online reviews that are written by the actual ciient. Unless a client is out of state I always meet with the couple in person and spend several hours with them to give information and answer questions. I also give license information which many officiants do not do, yet it is the responsibility of the officiant to be sure the license is signed and returned, at least via mail to the county clerk. If someone tries to rush you rather than take time and care in discussing your needs, I would advise moving on to someone who cares enough about your big day to invest the time with you to be sure you get all your questions answered.
