    Fantastic Experience!

    Working with Janet was a breeze. She was so calm and reassuring which was much needed during the hecticness of wedding planning! She was so easy to work with and really made the perfect ceremony for my husband and I. We were originally worried that having an officiant was going to make our ceremony too emotional and/or religious which we really didn't want and she listened to our concerns and ideas and created something so special that we both absolutely loved. She made things relaxed and light hearted and even got us giggling throughout. I couldn't have imagined a better ceremony for us and would definitely recommend Janet to anyone! Not only was she a great officiant but she is also the kindest person. So happy we had Janet be a part of our day!

    Casey and John,
    Thank you for such endearing words. I am so grateful to be your officiant/celebrant. It was such a powerful lovely day. What great people you two are. I will see you in December in Brooklyn! My Best Always, Janet

    Janet spent a lot of time getting to know us

    Our ceremony was personalized because Janet spent a lot of time getting to know us, our history, and our views. Our ceremony was very unique, reflected our history, and thrilled our guests.

    Weddings by Janet Dunn's reply:

    Thank you so much. It was a complete joy being your officiant. I will never forget those candles staying lit in that precarious weather. My love always, Janet

    Special and beautiful

    Janet was a wonderful officiant for our wedding in Ludlow, VT on 10/7. From our first conversation I knew how passionate and genuine she was about the work that she does. Janet made us feel so comfortable throughout the whole process and put together a beautiful ceremony that we will never forget. Thank you Janet for making us feel so special and being part of our wedding day!

    Weddings by Janet Dunn's reply:

    Janet is the best!!!

    We are so happy we chose Janet to officiate our wedding. Since my husband and I aren’t super religious, we wanted to keep the ceremony light and integrate more spirituality/focus on the surrounding environment around us (nature!). Janet did a wonderful job integrating this into our ceremony, and was open to any changes we wanted to make. She also had a ton of materials to choose from for our vows and any rituals we wanted to add in. Thanks so much Janet for your warm presence and being such an integral part of our special day!

    Weddings by Janet Dunn's reply:

    Oh, I was so grateful to be a part of your day. When I met you two, I knew how precious this ceremony would be. So much joy from your bridal party, family and friends. You two were truly blessed at The Promised Gardens of the Adirondacks. I am so honored. May you live together with joy and peace always. 🙏❤️

    Amazing and beautiful ceremony

    Janet was an amazing person to work with! From the second we spoke to her we knew she would create a beautiful ceremony based on who we are as people. Janet utilized the information we gave her about ourselves, our partner and who we are a couple to make a memorable ceremony. Our guests also thought it was truly beautiful! Janet also moved around throughout the ceremony so we have photos with her and her off to the side. As a person is very sweet, communicate well and have a calming presence. We wild highly recommend having Janet part of your wedding day

    Perfection

    Janet you complete us :)

    Janet made our ceremony amazing. She added so many personal details and stories that it felt as if we’d known each other for years. We both felt comfortable and had confidence in Janet and her ability to make our day special. Our guests were pleasantly surprised and everyone commented on how much they loved the ceremony. Our only regret was not hiring a videographer to capture everything Janet said.

    Janet came to our venue for our rehearsal, helped walked us through the process and put us at ease (we were completely clueless), and came back the next day for the ceremony. She did so many small things, like being conscious of not being in every picture by moving to the side and doing a private blessing.

    We honestly felt that Janet believed in us as a couple and she gave us that boost to believe in ourselves as well. Thank you Janet!

    Weddings by Janet Dunn's reply:

    I am so honored by your words. I am also humbled by them too. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You two have changed my life. Thank you, Janet

    Janet Dunn creates a very intimate, special, ceremony ALWAYS to be remembered

    Janet was able to take all the answers to our couple's questions, and create a very personal, intimate, creative, love story to tell all of our guests. I was surprised at how much she really did listen to all of the details we shared with her about our love story and meeting each other. It is something I will always remember and cherish. Made our day very special and all about us. Our guest all had something to say about how much they loved Janet and how creative and custom our ceremony was. One of a kind for sure! High recommended if you are looking for a one-of-a-kind, intimate, love story, ceremony. Cheers!!!

    Truly the best!

    Janet is absolutely AMAZING. I struggled with finding an officiant that met our needs - my fiancé and I are different religions - we wanted our ceremony to be focused on our love - not cheesy, not overly religious, but still touching on our faith. Our ceremony was so beautiful - months before, we talked to her on the phone to get to know one another and my fiancé and I filled out a questionnaire about our relationship. The ceremony was personal and perfect - Janet took our answers and created a ceremony revolving around our love story, it was truly everything we wanted. Janet was able to personalize what we wanted, adding in a few readings and a wedding prayer. We had so many compliments from our wedding attendees. I cannot say enough great things - highly recommend!

    Janet was so amazing. She was personal and sincere and professional and we loved working with her. She was very open and helpful when helping us put together our ceremony. She was very responsive to questions and tried really hard to make the ceremony exactly how we wanted it. Everyone at the wedding loved her!

    Janet made our wedding ceremony extra special

    Janet Dunn is everything you'd want as your wedding officiant. She's kind, warm, patient and personal. Janet took the time to get to know my husband and I. She sent us thoughtful questionnaires so that she could create a personalized wedding ceremony for us. These questions also really helped my husband and I to reflect on what WE wanted, and to rediscover some really special memories. Janet did a rehearsal with us and our families, and was so kind and patient. On our wedding day, she made us feel so special and so confident. She encouraged us to write and share our own vows. During our ceremony, she read the most beautiful love story to all of our family and friends - who were all laughing, and crying with joy. Janet truly made our day feel so very special. She is a kind woman, who's incredible at her job, and has the sweetest soul. I would recommend Janet ten times out of ten to anyone looking for an officiant who goes above and beyond on their wedding day. Thank you Janet, we hope you are well!

    What beautiful words! I am deeply honored and so grateful for meeting you and Tim. I loved being your officiant and will always remember the joy you two share. My best, Janet

    Absolutely amazing

    Janet was absolutely amazing for our wedding. She is one of the kindest people we’ve ever met, and was exactly what we hoped for. She helped us with everything for the ceremony and wrote one of the most beautiful ceremonies I’ve ever heard. She is absolutely someone I would recommend to anyone. She puts a lot of time and care into her work, her calming voice kept us at ease when the nerves racked up, and everyone at our wedding said what a beautiful job she did for us. Thank you Janet for everything!!! You made our special day that much more memorable.

    Janet was amazing from the moment I first contacted her! She was incredibly warm and genuine throughout the entire process, and on our wedding day, she was super patient while I took off my shoes to walk out to the spot where she married us. In short, I would absolutely recommend her for any event!

    Working with Janet was a Dream

    We cannot thank Janet enough for her officiant services at our September 2022 wedding. From my first phone conversation with Janet, it was obvious how much dedication and passion Janet has for her work. Within the first few minutes of speaking with her, I knew that Janet was the perfect officiant for our wedding. Janet made the planning process as personalized and simple as possible -- she sent detailed questionnaires to learn about us as a couple and as individuals. She provided us with a variety of options, from writing our vows or selecting from vows that Janet sent to us. During the ceremony, although my husband and I were incredibly nervous, Janet had such a calming presence that put us at ease. We have received so many compliments from our guests, who stated how thoughtful, passionate, and personalized Janet’s words were. It felt as though the words were coming from a close friend who had known us as a couple since the beginning of our relationship. We highly recommend Janet to anyone who is looking for an officiant!

    Wedding Officiant

    Janet did a beautiful job giving us a heart felt ceremony that everyone enjoyed. She worked hard to write a love story that we reflective of our whole relationship, which was not an easy task as we were together for 12 years before getting married. She was very responsive throughout the entire process and allowed us the opportunity to review the whole ceremony and make changes if we wanted to - however none were necessary as she truly wrote so beautifully! Her words had us laughing, crying and reassuring us that she was truly the best officiant we could have picked! We cannot thank her enough and highly recommend her!

    Janet officiated our September ceremony. From the time we contacted her to even the moments after our ceremony was over, she radiated a sense of calm that made us both feel completely at ease. Janet really took the time to get to know us and personalize our ceremony to our story and to what our values are. We had so so many compliments from friends and family on what a beautiful ceremony we had and what a wonderful energy Janet brought to the day. She also attended our rehearsal and directed it with ease. We truly cannot recommend her more highly.

    A warm and joyful officiant

    Janet put together such a special ceremony for our wedding. She sent us a bunch of questions a few months prior, and based off of those she put together a ceremony that matched us perfectly. During our wedding she radiated such love and joy, which was expressed in the words she spoke, and genuinely seemed so happy for us to be getting married.

    We loved Janet!

    After an initial phone call interview with Janet I knew that she was going to be wonderful to work with because of her immediate energy, warmth, and flexibility. We got to know her several times throughout the wedding planning months and got to know Janet which was really helpful to make our ceremony personal. She was attuned to what we wanted, had a great sense of humor and brought BOTH a seriousness and a levity to the ceremony that our guests really appreciated. I had a TON of comments from guests about how amazing our wedding ceremony was. 10/10 recommend and I would DEFINITELY book Janet again in the future.

    Weddings by Janet Dunn's reply:

    Well, that knocked my socks right off. What a blessed review and I am so grateful. I loved the review but much more importantly I grew to love both of you. I am deeply honored and forever grateful for the gift of being your officiant. Love and More Love, Janet

    Professional but Personal!!

    After seeing Janet at another wedding, my fiancee and I were super excited to book her for our own! She works with you both, and gives plenty of options to choose from, to curate a beautiful ceremony. She also works with you individually to come up with a love story she can tell on the day of. She was always easy to get a hold of and all our guests loved her. We would definitely recommend Janet!
