    Lovely Officiant! Highly recommend!

    Julie-Anne was the officiant for our wedding in August. She was amazing…kind, open-minded, organized, and a pleasure to communicate with! She is extremely professional, and made both of us feel comfortable throughout the process. I am agnostic and so I was apprehensive about having an officiant who I wasn’t familiar with. However, she is non judgmental and phenomenal to work with. Julie-Anne was available for calls/meetings, which made the days leading up to the wedding less stressful. She is a kind soul, but she had the leadership skills to ensure the wedding ceremony went smoothly. She assisted us by providing a template for the wedding ceremony, and feedback where necessary. I would highly recommend Julie-Anne to anyone looking for an officiant!

    Rev. Julie-Ann Silberman-Bunn's reply:

    Thank you so much! I love the pictures too! It was such an honor to be part of your planning and special day

    So glad we went with Rev. Julie-Ann!

    We loved working with Rev. Julie-Ann! She was kind, supportive, and flexible, and really helped ease our nerves on the day of the wedding. She was able to create a custom ceremony for us that felt authentic and meaningful. We definitely highly recommend working with her if you have the opportunity!!

    Perfectly curated, beautiful and meaningful ceremony!

    My husband (still so crazy to say!) and I decided to elope Tuesday, 2/22/22 a little more than a week prior to the date. We were so fortunate to have found Julie-Ann and that she was free that day to officiate our marriage ceremony with such short notice. Even though we didn't have much time to prepare, Julie-Ann made it a point to set up a video chat for us to get to know one another, and for Julie-Ann to mine meaningful elements from our relationship story to incorporate into the ceremony. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. The wedding was thoughtfully designed and delivered - it was all so beautiful and we couldn't be more grateful to have Julie-Ann as part of our love story.

    Rev. Julie-Ann Silberman-Bunn's reply:

    Thank you! It was a delight to be a part of your stunning tiny wedding. It was so perfect and so beautiful. Now I need to hear the story of the engagement!

    Rev Julie-Ann

    I have to say that my experience with Rev Julie-Ann was amazing. She is very quick to respond back and in my situation she was very flexible to accommodate us. She was also able to add our daughter into our ceremony which it meant the world to us and made our little girl extra special. Rev Julie-Ann is very sweet and kind. I could give her 3 million stars I would. Rev Julie-Ann you are amazing and may God keep blessing you to bring joy and happiness to people that has the pleasure to meet and interact with you..... I highly recommend Rev Julie-Ann.

    Rev. Julie-Ann Silberman-Bunn's reply:

    I just read what you wrote, thank you so much! I hope married life is treating you well. Love to all three of you as you continue to build your future! Love Julie-Ann

    A perfect day

    Rev. Silberman-Bunn was the best possible choice we could have made. She was extremely responsive to us via text and email, and even took time to video chat with us while she was on vacation. She gave us great suggestions, and helped us put together a ceremony that reflected the faiths of both my wife and I.

    Wonderful, engaging, caring

    Julie-Ann was a pleasure to work with for our wedding ceremony! I have nothing but great things to say about her!

    In the weeks before the ceremony:

    She met with us to get to know us, and helped us craft a custom ceremony that really reflected us as a couple. She was patient with us as we asked for a few rounds of revisions to the ceremony text, adding some extra passages in that we felt strongly about including. She was flexible about different ways to incorporate our various faith traditions (we are an interfaith couple). She gave us advice about writing our vows as well, which was really helpful!

    During the ceremony itself:

    She was wonderful on the day of the ceremony itself -- many members of our family went out of their way to comment on how well she led the ceremony. She was warm and engaging with us and with the crowd. She was able to balance the light-heartedness and joy of the celebration against the seriousness and gravitas that making a life long commitment should be handled with. And when we forgot the actual marriage paperwork and had to run back to the house after the ceremony, she had no qualms about waiting around a little extra time to make everything worked out smoothly. In short, she was a fantastic!

    Very personable and friendly! Gave us exactly what we wanted for the ceremony!

    Rev. Julie-Anne was attentive to our needs from beginning to end. She came to our house to speak to us one on one about our expectations and what kind of service we wanted for our wedding. She was very knowledgeable about different kinds of services and shared other experiences she has had while marrying other couples. Everything in our service was well spoken and said exactly the way we wanted it to even with a quote that my husband and I had picked out. She was extrenemly personable and kept us up to date about what we wanted to be said at our wedding. I would definitely without hesitation recommend Rev.Julie-Ann for weddings or any other services.

    Best Day Ever

    Rev. Julie-Ann Silberman-Bunn was 100% amazing! She went way above and beyond to make our service and our wedding personalized, memorable, and incredibly special. She was kind, patient, and brilliant and what she does! We had a bit of a wild vision and she executed it flawlessly.

    I was even an hour and a half late the day of my wedding so we did not get to meet up and go over final details like we were supposed to and she didn’t even skip a beat. She improvised and played a major part in giving us the most beautiful wedding possible. We have recommended her many times since our wedding and will continue to do so!

    An amazing day was made even more amazing by Julie-Ann. She took time to get to know us on a personal level, and put together a service that accommodated my wife and I perfectly. The personal touches she is capable of adding only enhanced this very special moment for me.

    Julie was thoroughly willing to customize the ceremony to our preferences, it was lovely and relatively brief and just as we wanted. She has done so many ceremonies for congregants, relatives, friends, and clients, that she is familiar with a wide range of alternatives and is open to all suggestions.

    In 2008, Rev. Julie-Ann married my wife and I; though, truth be told it was actually the second wedding she had conducted for us, the first being a ceremony in 2005 a week after Connecticut legalized same-sex unions. Both times, she consulted with us about the meaning of the ceremony and the vows we wanted to make. We needed a lot of guidance as to vows, not wanting it to be too traditional--she had several suggestions and helped with other aspects of the event. In fact, at the first ceremony, she arranged to confirm our newborn twins right after our vows, doubling the significance of the ceremony and our family bond. My heart smiles with memories of both special and sacred events. I highly recommend Rev. Julie-Ann to conduct your special ceremony.

    Thanks Jaime!
    I love following your family on Facebook! Rev. Julie-Ann

    Julie-Ann officiated our wedding in Stratford, Connecticut on December 17th, 2006, the day after my birthday and did a fabulous job. We were having was having a trouble finding a non-denominational wedding officiant we both liked, when I found Julie-Ann on the web. My husband and I met with her and she had us write letters to each other on our expectations, which to this day resonates with us. Many of the things we wrote then were are still so very important to this day. The wedding was unique with us walking hand in hand down the aisle at the beginning of the ceremony. Everyone was confused at first, LOL. But once we were officially married, we then turned towards the audience and linked arms to signify that we were one.
    Our ceremony was beautiful, everything that we wanted, especially with the short time we had to put it together. I definitely recommend Julie-Ann.

    Rev. Julie-Ann did a superb job officiating our wedding. She was very helpful offering ideas for including my daughter in the service. It was an beautiful, personalized service that she tailored to both my pagan beliefs and my husbands Christian family beliefs. It was the perfect balance. We received many compliments on the service.

    Julie Ann performed our wedding September 22, 2001. Our location was outdoors in a National Park. We got everything we had hoped for in our wedding. A loving and spiritual experience with comfortable guidance and support. Her approach was so balanced and personally oriented, and even made my commissioned lay minister father and my Lutheran minister father in law spiritually comfortable with her officiating. We could have not asked for nor found a better choice. You will not be disappointed in the least.

    Rev. Julie-Ann was wonderful!! Our wedding was out of town and she was willing to drive over an hour away, even for the rehearsal. She set time aside, despite having a busy schedule, to meet and counsel us prior to our ceremony.
