Happily Ever After Wedding Officiants

Rev. Connie was so wonderful to work with. She truely made our day about us and we both felt very special. We had so many compliments on our ceremony from our guest. Most saying it was the best they had ever been to.

Jim and Connie were the absolute best. We could have not asked for more when it came to their services and they were worth every penny. From first contact they really understood the relationship my fiancé and I had and took a personal interest in our story. We were able to choose exactly what we wanted said. And when we couldn't think of something, they were there to help guide us along. They even gave us the idea of the sand ceremony (a lovely way to symbolize the blending of a family). They made us feel so special, including my fiancé’s son. Jim really made an impression on him. When our wedding day came, they made us feel at ease and made the event so touching and special. All of our guests raved of Connie and the ceremony. They deserve every star I gave them.

From our initial meeting we were put as ease and made to feel very comfortable. We never once had to worry about anything related to the ceremony!

They crafted the ceremony for us and it was perfect. While they offered suggestions as to each part of the ceremony, they assured us that we could alter any of it as we liked. They even helped us to put together a customized section of the ceremony to include my wife's daughter, giving me as her new step-father the chance to remind her that the wedding ceremony not only joined myself to my wife but all of us in a family.

I would reccomend them to anyone at all hoping to create a special ceremony.

Connie and Jim did an amazing job of personalizing our ceremony and incorporating my daughter into the ceremony. They were wonderful to work with and their expertise made the whole experience (planning, rehearsal and actual ceremony) a joy.

Over the years, my family has been gifted with Jim and Connie's generosity in sharing their passion for love and talent for creating unbelievably unique and moving messages for numerous ceremonies and life celebrations. Most recently, I was married to the love of my life and Connie was there to make this union one of the most beautiful things ever witnessed by our family and friends. The degree of detail and personal touches left my new husband and I floating on a cloud - our guests left feeling inspired and the event was overflowing with abundant love. We are so lucky to have found each other...and our families are SO very lucky to have found Jim and Connie to help us celebrate all of life's most memorable moments. I can sincerely say that my favorite part of our wedding day was not the dress, the cake, the food, the drinks, the dance...but the time we stood in front of our guests, led by Connie, expressing our vows and openly sharing our love story with our family and friends. Thank you for such a precious gift!

They made sure my day was perfect. Once I saw them at the ceremony site, all my fears and worries were lifted away because I knew my special day was in good hands!

It was great to work with Jim! I would hire him again in an instant... but I hope I don't have to ;)

Connie wrote us the most beautiful ceremony. We recieved so many compliments the day of our wedding about how personal it was. She was WONDERFUL!

My husband and I met with Connie and Jim in their home and couldn't of felt more welcomed! They were kind and generous and made us feel like our wedding was the most important one they've ever done. It was great to feel their support up to the day of the wedding and even more so on the day of. With Jim's wedding experience, we couldn't of made it through our rehearsal and wedding without his guidance. From helping to line up our attendants, to keeping the ceremony meaningful and humorous, he was truly the best wedding officiant I've ever met! We got so many compliments on our ceremony because of Jim's heartfelt and personal words about our lives together that truly touched us and our guests.

Jim and Connie are Wisconsin's most gifted officiants. We received so many wonderful comments about the special touches of the ceremony and how they shared our unique story. The love they generated in the room was infectious and inescapable and I don't know if any officiants out there have the amazing talent they have. As an LGBT couple, we found we could be truly open. Their thoughtfulness and guidance through the process was priceless.

Thank you again Jim and Connie for a ceremony truly tailored to us and for the unforgettable words and moments we will have for a lifetime.

Jim Engmann was a wonderful officiant. He helped calm me (the bride) on the day of the wedding. He made sure that everyone was present and ready for the next steps. He also was the officiant for my best friend and helped make a great ceremony start after a 40 minute delay due to dressing issues. He is wonderful! I highly recommend him! He is also very sensitive to religious and non-religious ceremonies.

Rev. Connie was simply fantastic! She made our special day a memorable one and we would definitely recommend her to future brides and grooms to be. She is the best!

My husband and I were so happy with our wedding ceremony. Reverend Engmann truly understood what type of ceremony we were looking for and added greatly too it. We received countless compliments on our ceremony, and specifically our officiant. –Mr. & Mrs. Curwick

Truly amazing does not even begin to describe the work that Connie and Jim did for our Wedding. Our ceremony was absolutely amazing and personal. We would highly recommend them to anyone including our family and best friends. We have received nothing but raving reviews from our guests about the ceremony they did for us. They will hold a special place in our hearts forever. You will not be disappointed!

Connie and Jim were wonderful to work with! They met with us prior to the wedding, promised what we wanted and delivered above our expectations! I have already recommended to other friends and I know that one couple has already booked with them.

My relationship with Happily Ever After Wedding Officiants is two fold. Jim served as my officiant for my own wedding. It was wonderful to be able to add personal touches into the ceremony. Now as a wedding professional myself, I can see that both Jim & Connie take the time to get to know each couple, to make their ceremony more personal and truly about the couple that is getting married. I would definitely recommend Connie or Jim with Happily Ever After Wedding Officiants!

Connie went above and beyond during a ceremony I photographed that she officiated. She created something special for the couple based on their story and it was lovely and so special to the couple. She really does the wonderful job!

Reverend Connie and Jim are two people who I heartily endorse for wedding officiate services. Beyond their flair for personalizing the wedding ceremony are two people deeply in love with each other and their calling of uniting people. It shows in every service they perform and my clients who have used them have rave reviews of the entire process of working with them. From the minute you meet them you will feel their positive caring energy. True professionals, you won't be disappointed!

I am a professional wedding photographer and have done hundreds of weddings. I picked him to do MY wedding out of all the rest!

Yes we're just The Photo Booth Guys from The Traveling Photo Booth but we know great vendors when we see them (and work weddings with them) and Connie and Jim from Happily Ever After Wedding Officiants are extremely dedicated in what they do. They have a passion and love for meeting couples, learning their stories and guiding them in their wedding day to bring them together as one.

When Rev. Joan or Rev. Karen are already booked and cannot accomodate a couple's date for their wedding ceremony, the first recommendation I make is to Rev. Jim and Rev. Connie of Happily Ever After Wedding Officiants. I've know them for ten years and have heard wonderful things about their services. I feel confident sending folks to them because I know they will give each couple the same time, attention and quality of service that I would provide myself.

Connie and Jim have a special joy for performing wedding ceremonies. I highly recommend them to any wedding couple.

Rev. Jim of Happily Ever After Weddings has been a pleasure to work along side. The tone of his weddings is upbeat and he has a very thoughtful way of communicating with couples, family and other guests. He is also conscientious in working with other wedding professionals.
