It's Official Services
Your wedding is more than a series of moments; it’s the story of your love, shared with the people who matter most. From the moment you walk down the aisle to the last dance of the evening, every transition should feel effortless for you and your guests. I offer something unique: one consistent voice guiding your celebration from start to finish. As both your officiant and/or MC, I bring warmth, clarity, and energy to every stage of your wedding.
With a background in social work, I bring empathy, presence, and the ability to truly connect, not just with my couples, but with every guest in the room. I’m here to honor your journey, calm your nerves, and set the tone for a celebration that feels connected, intentional, and joy-filled from beginning to end.
In three words: Fun, Organized, Thoughtful

Best Officiant and MC
We decided to have Janelle be both our MC and our officiant, and we are so happy we made that decision. From the very beginning, she was incredibly collaborative and made my husband and me feel completely at ease. She guided us through the license process, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during an already busy time. On the day of the wedding, she blended in so seamlessly that my family genuinely thought she was part of the family. She was warm, present, and connected and kept the entire evening flowing effortlessly. Having one person serve as the backbone of the celebration made everything feel calm, something we couldn’t have appreciated more! Janelle brought heart and professionalism. We can’t imagine the day without her.

The Calm Officiant
If you are looking for an officiant who feels less like a vendor and more like a long-time friend, hire Janelle. We were naturally nervous, but Janelle has a calming presence that made the entire experience stress-free and natural. My relatives are still talking about her! Thank you, Janelle, for making our big day so warm and memorable!

We couldn't say enough about Janelle and how fantastic she was during this entire process. From the first meeting over the phone to the ceremony itself, Janelle proved to be one of our best finds during this wedding planning. As a same-sex couple, there is always the concern of finding vendors who will treat you with respect and attention, and Janelle exceeded every expectation we had. From a logistical standpoint, she was also extremely flexible in our requests, including bending over backwards so that we could sign our marriage licenses EXACTLY on the date we wanted. She walked us through each step of this otherwise (sort of) intimidating process. She even entertained our silly concept for our unity ceremony! It's no exaggeration that of all the vendors we had, our guests had asked us the most about her (a la "where on earth did you find her??"). Janelle was a highlight to the most important day for myself and my husband, and we couldn't be happier to recommend her to anyone looking for a top-class officiant.

Our experience with Janelle was nothing short of extraordinary. She captured our love story so beautifully while still maintaining our goofy and lighthearted nature. We could not imagine having anyone marry us . Not only is Janelle kind , genuine and gracious she is so personable and easy to talk to as well as humble even helping me with my veil and hair right before we walked down the aisle . Janelle radiates kindness and light, our guest are still telling us they felt she had a beautiful aura and energy . From the first draft to the ceremony we never felt anxious that she wouldn’t capture every detail which as most brides know is a major win . We knew just by speaking to her and seeing the draft of the ceremony that she had included everything we wanted and more . She led the ceremony with such grace and ease. If you are thinking about hiring its official services don’t even think twice just do it you will not be disappointed.

Janelle is a consummate professional but above all she gave us and our guests such a lovely experience. Her ability to quickly connect is unmatched. Our guests could not believe that she wasn’t a long time friend. I would recommend her again and again especially to anyone who is looking for a personalized experience. We laughed, we cried (happy tears) and I can’t thank her enough for an amazing day.
