    Jill was so amazing to work with! My husband and I did a small kind of elopement with just our siblings and parents. We all traveled from Minnesota. Jill was very easy to contact and talk to over zoom in the months leading up to our wedding. She wasn’t just focused on the ceremony, but was also clear and direct with how to obtain the marriage license from Sevier County, which is what we needed with so many other things going on. She was flexible with last minute changes but still created a beautiful, quick, ceremony! We could not be happier. Bonus, she took some amazing photos, which we are so happy to have while waiting for the photographer’s!

    I couldn't imagine anyone else but Rev. Jill officiating our wedding! We reached out to her because we saw that she was happy to do religious or nonreligious ceremonies. She walked us through every step of making sure our ceremony fit us perfectly! Everyone at the ceremony commented on how she really highlighted our relationship and individual personalities, and the ceremony itself was so sincere with just the right amount of levity! I would recommend Rev. Jill to anyone!
