We really felt as though we got to know him beforehand, which made the ceremony all the more personal – as if we were being married by a friend!

And when we returned from our honeymoon, we kept hearing from our guests about what a terrific job they thought he did!
Fiona and Alec
We've first met Jean at our daughter's baptism and were impressed by his ability to make individuals feel at ease during a relatively stressful period. When my husband and I decided to make our union official, there was no hesitation as to where we would get our officiant. Jean performed both of our ceremonies in a professional and courteous manner to which we were forever grateful. We would recommend his services to anyone who is having their child baptized or is getting married.

Thanks so much for making yesterday so special - you did an amazing job! We
received many compliments on the ceremony! It was a perfect day!
Hi Alan,
Well more than a month has passed since the big day and we are now back from
our honeymoon and practically an old married couple!
I felt like I was floating on a cloud at the wedding (particularly right
after the ceremony, which was way more emotional than I'd been expecting)
and so I don't think I thanked you properly before you left. Even though it
is a little late, Mark and I want to offer our sincere thanks to you. We
were very happy with the way you performed our ceremony. It was warm,
personal, and just generally fantastic. Many of our guests has similar
comments.
Thank you again. We will happily recommend
your services to any of our
friends, and good luck with the wedding season ahead.
Kind regards,
Mark and Marie-Rose
After we met with you at the coffee shop, we knew we had chosen the right person to conduct our wedding ceremony. And indeed, you were amazing... with your calming presence, your experience, and the way you made everyone feel part of that beautiful family reunion. You guided us like a Chef d'orchestre. Your sense of humor and ability to adapt to unplanned events (like my youngest son wanting me to hold him all the time!) was greatly appreciated. You really made our wedding a magical day for which Clement and I will always be grateful.
Rodney and I were talking about the wedding the other day and we both realized that we never did get a chance to say "Thank-you" or goodbye to you.
Anyways we would really like to say "Thank-you very much" for making our day a very memorable one. Here's a great picture showing how relaxed and at ease we were in your presence. You made it a beautiful ceremony (as many of our guests have also commented).
