Our experience with Reverend Jill was more than we could have asked for. >From my first email correspondence to her and to the multiple meetings we had in person with her, she made my husband and I feel so at ease. She took the time to get to know us…and almost immediately, we developed a rapport with her that made us feel like family. She kept us on task as we wrote our own vows, while making sure that we included the traditional ceremony elements that we wanted. We are a blended family with 5 children, so we incorporated special vows to include them – a beautiful idea, inspired by Jill. Her humor kept us laughing throughout the process, at a time that could have been especially stressful! The day of our wedding, Jill was ever-present – dotting “I’s” and crossing “Ts” I hadn’t even thought of. She was beyond reassuring, reminding both of us to enjoy the beautiful day and life journey we were about to embark on. Jill has made life-long friends in our family…she helped to make our wedding day truly special and went above and beyond what was expected. I can’t recommend her enough…somehow 5 stars doesn’t seem to be enough!

“Reverend Jill performed the ceremony for Danielle and I. It was great to see her again as this is the second family wedding she has done for us. She was a pleasure to work with. Besides doing a great job at the ceremony she helped us with our vows, handled the state paperwork, and handled the wedding party and vendors like a pro pre-ceremony. I would recommend her to anyone.

-Carrie and Ryan Werner
Jill was exactly the person we needed to guide us through our ceremony. Within 3 minutes of speaking with her we realized she was who we would hire if we had interviewed 20 candidates. She quickly got to the heart of what we wanted in a wedding ceremony, personalized it for us, drew on her years of experience, and shepherded us through a beautiful, emotional, and memorable day.

“We had the pleasure of being married by Reverend Jill during an intimate and private ceremony and also called upon her to help us celebrate our union with friends and family during a vow renewal and reception. Initially, neither of us had a clear vision for what we wanted our vows to look like, but she was able to provide some simple and meaningful options to help us demonstrate our love for and commitment to one another; she even incorporated our son into our special day.
We’re so grateful Reverend Jill was able to officiate our marriage because she truly helped make our wedding magical and we continue to cherish our memories.”

“When my husband proposed in August of 2015, we decided why wait…..we’d get married in November.. The first thing to consider was who would marry us. We knew we needed a justice of the peace and fortunately the first person to come to my mind was Reverend Jill. I had the pleasure of meeting her a year or two prior at a beach club. The very same one my husband proposed to me at. While I didn’t at the time know Jill personally I would see her and her husband now and again and we’d chat/catch up on things. Who would have thought she would be such an important part of such a special occasion.
I ran into Jill and told her the news and she was so excited for us. I immediately asked if she would marry us. We were planning on getting married at a small Inn in CT so I knew it would include some travel for her so I wasn’t sure if it would in fact work out. I also wasn’t sure what we would need since we lived in RI and would be married in CT, so much to think and worry about.
It all worked out…. Jill was eager accept the invitation. What we liked about her was that she set our expectations as to what we could expect from her, what she could help us with, timing of when things needed to be done etc. . I will share that she exceeded our expectations and helped make our ceremony even more memorable than we hoped it could be. She met with us, had the opportunity to get to know us and our history together, listened to what was important to us in a ceremony and said she would help us every step of the way.
She provided us a framework for the ceremony to start with which was a big help. I thought in the beginning that I’d want something cookie cutter but the more we talked the more we (I) realized it was important to personalize it…it was a day we would always remember
Jill provided us feedback, thoughts and, nudged us along the way when we needed it.
She planned to get to the ceremony early and of course she held true to her word. Good thing….She helped out with last minute items, kept me calm and made some last minute recommendations that made all the difference.
The ceremony was everything we wanted and more; I cannot speak highly enough about Jill, her level of professionalism, reliability and the level of expertise and guidance she provided were truly appreciated.”

“Rev Jill was excellent, she married my husband and I on July 17, 2010 and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to do what she did.
She made it easy for us to say what we wanted to each other and presented a personal heart felt ceremony to our family and friends. She calmed our nerves and helped us every step of the way.
We have even gotten many compliments from our guest on how impressed they were with Rev. Jill and the way she presented our ceremony. Brian and I are very pleased with everything she did for us, THANK YOU Rev. Jill for making our day perfect.”
– Sarah and Brian Polubinski
“Jill is a great listener and organizer and a very warm and caring woman. She is she dedicated to making sure that everything will be perfect on your wedding day, taking care of the smallest of details.”

“Rev Jill married us on May 29th 2010. We cannot thank her enough for all your hard work in planning, organizing and of course hosting our blessing.
We did not have normal circumstances. Kevin is a Marine and we only had three months to plan the wedding and we had wedding date changes and limited access to the groom, but when all said and done Rev Jill delivered one of the most beautiful and personalized ceremonies that left us in awe.
She was there every step of the way by email, phone and meetings. Ourselves, parents and guests where all affected by this day and will remember it always.”
