We can’t say enough nice things about working with Jennifer. She was perfect for our private elopement ceremony at Garrapata off the 1. She was easy to talk to, fast to respond, did and said exactly what we asked for in our ceremony, was super flexible with the timing of our day, showed up on time and was so easy going and kind and made us feel so comfortable. When I left my vows she mailed them back to my home without me even having to ask. Also she was the best priced of everyone we checked and we feel like we truly got the best deal and the best person!

It was a pleasure to work with Natasha and Grant, as well as their wonderful photographer (highly recommend). The couple was easy going and knew what they wanted. The couple was stunning on the edge of the Monterey Bay for their photos, absolutely ethereal. Thank you Natasha and Grant for allowing me to be a small part of your special day. JLS

I have nothing but good things to say. She made our most stressful day fun, made the process easy, gave us exactly what we asked for, and took care of the whole process. She’s prepared, professional, and straight to business. She brought us some treats from a bakery in town, gave us a certificate keepsake as an unofficial marriage license that we can put in our wedding box, and she said she’d treat us to lunch the next time we’re in town. We were touched. She’s everything we wanted and more.

It's my pleasure to work with Molly and Sam, a young couple looking for a simple yet relaxed elopement. Serving and aiding couples on what should be a relaxed and joyous day is my pleasure. Sam, I wish you and Molly all the best and look forward to the two of you visiting the area again.

Jennifer was amazing to work with. She gave us lots of options on where the ceremony can take place and even send videos of the locations. Super friendly and very professional. We could not have done it without her. Thank you very much again Jennifer ❤️

Jennifer was absolutely wonderful and made the process and communication easy! She was very accommodating and for someone not from the area of Pacific Grove where the wedding ceremony was, she provided great suggestions. If I could of picked all 5 areas listed with high regards I would have but the app only allows you to pick 3. The day was very memorable and so thankful we had her as our Officient to lead the ceremony!

I can’t recommend Jennifer enough, she was a huge part of what made our day so special. Jennifer was so responsive and helpful during the lead up to the wedding - guiding us through what we needed, advising on ceremony spots and doing check ins with us throughout. On the day, Jennifer was so flexible with a last minute ceremony location change and was such a wonderful energy to have with us on the day! Her ceremony was beautifully written, and it really felt like a friend was marrying us. Thank you again Jennifer and looking forward to seeing you again in Big Sur! Stephanie
