About

Vows That Wow sums up Paula Jensen's wedding officiant services based in Blairstown, New Jersey. She creates unique and personal ceremonies that reflect each couples' values and ideals. Trained in public speaking and writing, her delivery is joyous and engaging with a touch of humor and spiritual reverence. She gets to really know her couples through face to face meeting and giving them "homework", which they do not share with the other. From this, Paula weaves and delivers a meaningful ceremony that is one-of-a-kind: incredibly intimate while involving every single guest. From small gatherings to large celebrations, Vows That Wow raises your ceremony to the high point of the day it deserves to be.

Experience

With more than 30 years as a wedding photographer, Paula Jensen knows all the necessary steps to achieve a beautiful ceremony firsthand after seeing many which sadly fell short. She became a licensed minister by the Universal Life Church 15years ago and was also a lay preacher in the Methodist church for many years. However, her ceremonies are independent of any religion; only a belief in God is necessary. Paula is professional and reliable, LGBT friendly, and has well-established relationships with wedding vendors in the tri-state area.

The New York Times has written about me twice in their wedding reviews. They NEVER mention officiants....

Fantastic Officiant

We wanted to find an officiant that didn’t seem like the ceremony was off of a general script. When we met Paula for the first time, we knew she was the one. Her character and energy was on par with ours and we’re thrilled that we chose her for our wedding. We didn’t want our guests to start falling asleep during the ceremony, and she most certainly kept them entertained from our entrance all the way to our exit while keeping the ceremony very personal and beautiful. Reach out to her now!!!

Say I Do….

We found Paula through this site and could not be more pleased with having her serve as the officiant for our wedding. Paula is flexible, progressive, witty, and infuses the right amount of her personality into the ceremony.

Paula is very responsive, helpful and informative throughout the entire process from our wedding rehearsal, ceremony, and beyond.

This is definitely the right fit for us and our wedding.
