Wonder Weddings

r frantically looking for venues and asking friends to get ordained to officiate our ceremony, I came across The Knot's website and read through just about all of the reviews. Wonder Weddings caught my eye, so I typed up a quick request and sent it to them. Within a couple of days, Rev. Judi gave me a call and when I tell you all of my fears and anxiety had immediately subsided after speaking with her, I truly mean it. She reassured me that she would help me take care of everything and would be able to accommodate all of our needs within my short timeline. We had the Kiss-and-Go ceremony scheduled for 6:30pm on the beach on a Saturday, and a few hours before the ceremony, I realized I was a hot mess and needed an additional 30 minutes to get myself together before the big moment. She didn't hesitate to delay the ceremony for me, and not to mention she agreed to do this for us ON HER BIRTHDAY. Fast forward to the ceremony itself, she approached us with the warmest welcome and officiated our ceremony with the most beautiful script, and every single one of us could feel her beautiful energy. Even after the end of the ceremony, after she was long gone, all our families could talk about was how amazing she was and how elegantly she spoke of our love. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a single thing and will be recommending Rev. Judi to anyone and everyone I know.

selection of readings provided. My wife was very nervous and we had to make some special circumstances to how the ceremony was going to go, she worked amazingly with us to ensure everything was perfect! Unfortunately during the hours of our ceremony there was a bad thunderstorm that just let up for a couple minutes for us to do the ceremony and take pictures. Judy was there waiting with us at the pavilion she is dedicated and we couldn’t recommend her enough!! She’s there rain, shine, thunderstorms and beautiful sunny days!!

e wanted. You are in great hands with her!

y and the vibe we wanted for a spiritual, but not religious ceremony. For the readings and unity ritual we threw her a loop with requests to include Star Trek quotes for my late mother and an aluminum riveting ceremony that we made up. She seamlessly interwove those quotes and the description for the unity ceremony making it lighthearted, love-filled, and fun. The day of our ceremony I was a nervous wreck, felt like my coordinator looked and felt the same way, and could not stop uncontrollably shaking. When the coordinator entered the bridal suite I felt like she was not easing any anxiety, potentially adding. But when Rev. Judi came in to touch base and talk to me it was like a weighted blanket entering the room. She calmed my nerves with her presence, made jokes as I adjusted all manner of my undergarments, and made sure I was feeling good about the ceremony. Not only did I notice this calm demeanor and confidence?, but my groomsmen and bridesmaids all said the same thing. I had many compliments from multiple guests about how great of a job she did and how relaxed she made everyone. If I had to get married every year, I would chose Rev. Judi every time!

rfectly. She was kind and helpful throughout the process. She even gave us a cute little book to remember our ceremony, and we plan to pull it out and read through it each year on our anniversary. Rev. Judi also did a great job of incorporating my Jewish roots with my husband's Christian background throughout the ceremony, and she signed our Ketubah too. She even sent out our marriage license, which makes our hectic lives easier as it's one less thing we have to do! We highly recommend her!

ity ceremony, and we found just that with Wonder Weddings. Rev. Judi put together a perfect ceremony that encompassed who we are as a couple and the process was so easy! She was available to talk throughout the entire process and quick to respond. She participated in both our wedding rehearsal and dinner despite inconvenient timing! Couldn’t have asked for a better officiant. If you’re wanting someone who is very personable and will take the time to get to know as a couple, you’ve come to the right place!

did an amazing job! She was a total professional guiding the ceremony. We really couldn't have asked for anything more. It was such a smooth and pleasant experience.

cation, very personable and professional, super friendly. Her questionnaire really helped craft the perfect ceremony and definitely helped her get to know us better. I had several people cry who said they'd never cried at a wedding before and actually had people request a copy of the ceremony script! She made my day beautiful. Highly recommend!

e, responds in a timely manner, extremely organized - I mean the list goes on! Honestly if ANYONE I know in the area is getting married in the future and is looking for an officiant, I will HIGHLY recommend Wonder Weddings. My day was absolutely perfect, and they were a HUGE part of that! -Sharra S.

eloping. She was very open-minded, willing to let us have our vows, ring exchange, and reading however we wanted them and even provided us some examples. She was quick to respond to emails, arrived early for the ceremony and made sure to get the license filled out properly, and she even went to the beach site where our ceremony was the night before (and sent us beautiful sunset pictures which got us excited) so she knew exactly where to go the next day. She was extremely professional and very down to earth and easy to talk to while we were waiting to start the ceremony. She lead the ceremony with ease and directed us when it was our turn to talk which was great because we forgot to figure out who was saying their vows first! She had it all figured out and was very prepared. I would highly recommend hiring her if you’re religious or not, LGBTQ+ or straight. She is so friendly and very reliable! Rev. Judi, thank you again for making our day so special!

to know us just through a few email exchanges and helped us through the whole process- legalities and all. She listened to our requests and respected our decisions so there were no surprises during the ceremony. If we ever decide to renew our vows, we’ll be booking her again. Thanks Reverend Judi!

(and our guests) were all very impressed. So many people commented how refreshing it was that the ceremony was all about the bride and groom and how lovely it was. When planning, Rev. Judi was very helpful guiding us but also, completely open to allowing us to do things anyway we wanted. She’s an excellent communicator - thoughtful, warm, professional. The Rehearsal and the Wedding Ceremony were perfect - everything ran smoothly and beautifully.

Our entire ceremony was six minutes which was exactly what we asked for.

the wedding. Her energy is amazing and she is so fun to work with! We could not have asked for a better officiant! Book her ASAP!

friendly. The ceremony was beautiful, her words were personalized and touching and everyone loved our wedding! Our thanks for our to Rev. Judi for making our day WONDERFUL! -Groom

nd everyone lived her. She is absolutely the best!👍🥰

h us to officiate a "Kiss & Go" ceremony that included 6 of our family members in an outdoor gazebo at Lafayette Square Park. The ceremony content and the exchange of vows were very meaningful, and Reverend James was a wonderful officiant to work with. He helped our day feel very special, and was communicative, easy to plan with, and even followed up afterwards to share the vows for our memory book. I highly recommend Wonder Weddings!

eremony!

e we filled out and it was a perfect addition to our ceremony. He travelled several hours to our venue and was pleasant and friendly when we finally got to meet him. Every step of the ceremony planning was made simple by him. We are very happy that he performed our ceremony.

d the ceremony and how beautiful and personal it was. Judi was extremely responsive and easy to work with as well as knowledgeable about traditions from all backgrounds. I would highly recommend Judi to anyone!

ro at the reigns to guide us. Judi was poised, professional, kind, courteous, and the epitome if class. Our ceremony was personalized and special, and reflected us in everyway. We cannot imagine having a different officiant. Rev. Judi was perfection, and we will recommend her to anyone that listens!

d and walked my fiancé and I through various options for our wedding ceremony (which was extremely helpful). Reverend Judi was consistently prompt to reply and turn around any requested documents, edits, etc., and was always on-time (actually early) for in-person events. Her warmness and professionalism carried throughout the ceremony script development process into our rehearsal and ultimately our wedding-day ceremony. We couldn't have been more pleased with how everything turned out and are so thankful she was a part of our big day.

ion and ease with Rev. Judi. She was perfect for us. Throughout the process she has answered all of our silly questions and asked us many questions in return to create a perfectly tailored wedding ceremony for us and our relationship. On top of being incredibly personable and fun, she is a great public speaker who made our love story and ceremony really come to life. We managed to squeeze a few tears from all of our guests (I call that a success!). She was very organized and patient, and we are so grateful and lucky to have had her as such a special part of our big day!

enjoyed speaking with Judi. She made it a point to get to know both of us in order to create the best ceremony program based on our relationship and for our wedding. We also wanted our ceremony to include a love story, and Judi wrote it beautifully. Her prices are great and she was always quick to respond to us when we had questions. Judi is kind, positive, easy to work with, professional, and knowledgeable about the process. I would recommend her services to any couple in need of an officiant for their wedding.

eve he truly was able to give the best description of our “love story”. He was so easy to work with and truly gave us the ceremony we had always dreamed about. I don’t think it could have been any more perfect! We can’t thank him enough!

y of the wedding. We could not have had a better experience!

COVID. Reverend James was so professional and more than willing to step in and help us out in a relatively short (approx 2 month) time frame. We met with him a few times over the phone and several times via email and he worked to craft an amazing, personalized wedding ceremony that truly told our love story in a way that no one else could have. If you want someone who is flexible and creative as well as a true artist with masterful delivery who himself loves love, I highly recommend Reverend James with Wonder Weddings to officiate your wedding.

ed all the details with the marriage license including mailing it, which was so helpful on the day of. We just can't thank her enough. You will not regret hiring her for all your officiant needs!

ving to worry about that right after our wedding. We had a few changes to our ceremony script the week of our wedding and Judi was very accommodating to make our last minute changes.

tly what we wanted, and we appreciate your guidance greatly!

compassionate. From the moment we met Rev Judi we knew in our hearts she was sincere and had nothing but the best in mind for my husband and I. The professionalism within this organization stands out above all others. We wish we could give them a 10 star rating!

fessional, expressive, and punctual for our ceremony. We had a minor mixup on the location for our initial consultation which is the only reason for less than five stars, and which she made right. I would recommend her to any other bride and groom.

ove story in the best way possible and really nailed it! We can not say enough good things about working with him

e got so many compliments from guests at the reception on the words spoke. We will always remember Rev Judi when we look back on our wedding day, thank you for making it so personal to Jeremy and myself!

ur wedding goes as planned. One example, she served as our point person in working with the musicians, wedding party and guests to start the ceremony at exactly the right time. This was a big help to us as we did not have a wedding planner to stay on top of this small but important detail. We are thrilled with how our most beautiful day evolved and Rev. Judi was an integral part of this most special day. Thank you, Reverend Judi!

tremendous job of matching ceremony to the couple’s needs. Would highly recommend

ed around us and truly making it our own. In her very capable hands, everyone knew our story and the future we were wanting to paint together as a married couple. It was beautiful having everyone from our lifetimes in different places come together and go on that journey with us.

ting we knew that we want him to be our officiant. He was so easy to work with and provided many examples and options for our ceremony- making the planning much easier. He really was able to capture our love story and convey that at our ceremony. Our ceremony felt genuine and unique. It is something I will never forget. Thank you so much for being a part of our day!
