Jenn officiated our intimate wedding on 10/10/25 and she was amazing!!! From the beginning, she was super professional and went above and beyond to make sure everything was set for the big day. From the zoom call she set up with us to get to know our story to the entire breakdown of what was going to be said during the ceremony, she was on top of it all! We’re so grateful she was able to be part of our special day!

Jenn did a fantastic job as officiant for my daughter’s wedding. The entire process was seamless. She was very responsive from my initial contact. The vows were wonderfully personalized for the couple. I highly recommend her services!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We cannot say enough amazing things about WhynotWed! From start to finish, they were an absolute dream to work with as our officiant. They took the time to get to know us as a couple, crafted a ceremony that was heartfelt and personal, and delivered it with the perfect balance of warmth, humor, and professionalism. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about making your wedding day special, look no further. They are simply the best! Thank you for making our day unforgettable! ❤️

We can’t thank Jennifer enough for being such an important part of our wedding day. She made our ceremony truly unforgettable. The way you she personalized it — sharing how we fell in love and beautifully blending both our families — made every moment feel so meaningful and special. Her words perfectly captured our story and the love that brought us all together. So many of our guests mentioned how heartfelt and genuine the ceremony felt — it was everything we hoped for and more. Thank you again for the warmth, care, and thoughtfulness you put into every detail Jennifer. We are forever grateful to have had you lead us into this new chapter of our lives. With appreciation, Claire and Jeffrey💕
