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 was absolutely amazing on our big day! She arrived early, explained the entire ceremony, and made us feel completely at ease. My husband was very anxious at first, but once Jenn began the ceremony, he instantly felt calm. The whole process was clear, detailed, and simple.She made everything so easy. Jenn even mailed our marriage license the same day! I highly recommend Jenn and Why Knot Wed to anyone looking for a caring and professional officiant.
