I have nothing but amazing things to say about Justice John. Due to covid, we had a small ceremony at our house with just a few friends and we all had a great time. Justice John was responsible, punctual and his speech was dynamic and personalized. We are very happy that we chose him to be our wedding officiant.
Nov 2, 2020VerifiedJustice John's replyIt was so nice meeting you and Frank. Your friends were all very kind, and the dogs were a hoot! I was very impressed at your place too. Many of the unique features are a mirror of the two of you!

We are so glad to have chosen Justice John to officiate our wedding ceremony. He was extremely professional, and he tailored the text of the ceremony to our particular circumstances very well. He went above and beyond in making our day special for us, and we would wholeheartedly recommend his services.
Nov 17, 2020VerifiedJustice John's replyIt was wonderful to be able to have your family present via Zoom. It was a perfect fall day with quite a breeze coming off the river. Having the tripod almost take off was interesting, and fast action by your husband saved the day. Thank you for your generosity too!

I'm so glad we chose Justice John to officiate our wedding! He was always responsive and flexible in working with us to make the ceremony as personalized as possible. He showed up at the ceremony site even before we did, and everything went beautifully. Thanks again, John! -Jenn and David

FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?The cost of the wedding ceremony is regulated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The fee is $150 anywhere in Massachusetts other than Beverly. In Beverly, the fee is $100. Most weddings I officiate are within 30 miles of Beverly, although I have traveled more for special reasons. I am in and around Boston often.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?Before selecting me as your officiant, I encourage a consultation. There is no charge for this, but it has a high value to both of you, and especially to me. There needs to be a connection between the three of us. During this meeting, we will discuss the elements of the ceremony, and I usually can answer questions that you haven't thought to ask. I also explain what you can expect from me at the rehearsal (which is optional) and the wedding day. After that meeting, we exchange email to produce a ceremony to your liking. While a second in-person consultation is possible, it's usually not needed. The next time we meet in person is the rehearsal or the wedding day. A 50% down payment is accepted around the time of the consultation. Final payment can be made at the rehearsal or prior to the ceremony on your wedding pay.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?I love being with happy people on happy days like a wedding day. Public speaking comes easily to me, and working with groups of people is a pleasure. I have worked professionally in broadcasting, and my current work experience is in human resources. I was also involved in the founding a local Toastmasters club which hones all kinds of presentation.
