Say Yes!

Janette was our wedding officiant this past wknd in Sonoma. She was fabulous. Our ceremony went off without a hitch and she created the warm positive feel we were going for. Janette helped us craft a ceremony that was a mix of traditional and personalized and her binder of information was very useful. Janette is very responsive and professional and most of all is great at listening to your needs (with a smile). We used Janette for our flowers as well and we are so glad we did. They turned out beautiful and right on with our vision. Thank you Janette for helping us create an unforgettable and magical day.

Janette (Say Yes) was everything we could have hoped for in an officiant. She was responsive to our many questions, helped design our ceremony while allowing us to put our own uniqueness into it, and made us feel like everything was taken care of (which it was 100%).I would recommend Janette to all my friends and family who will soon get married in my area. For our ceremony she was early, very good speaking, and was able to roll with the punches. Before walking out in front of the crowd, Janette and were set to walk in together and she was very easy to talk to right before the big moment. I was comfortable and confident with her the whole time.5/5 on all categories!! Thanks again Janette!!

Janette was wonderful. We wanted a very personal outdoor wedding in that we planned and excecuted it ourselves with Janette's help. Not only did she provide material for us to use in creating our ceremony, she was available to us to answer any questions as they came up. Her advice and help were invaluable wihtout being intrusive; we felt the ceremony was entirely our own. Janette impressed me greatly with her orgainization skills. She advised us on the legaities of the marriage and helped in their execution. She even did the flowers. I am sure her attendance at our rehearsal was a major reason the ceremony was perfect. Although we were expecting that there would be some minor things that could go amiss, there were none. I am sure that Janette was responsible for that. The weather was perfect too, maybe Janette was not responsible for that.

We found Janette through this website & are so thankful we did! She met with us before we even booked with her & she immediately put us at ease. She was so friendly & easy to talk to...she even gave us a binder that included all the different options for our ceremony to fully customize our wedding. Our ceremony was so beautiful & unique to us. She answered my e-mails super quickly & was professional & personable at the same time. E-mail her to get ceremony information & you can see for yourself how amazing her services are. And did I mention she's by far one of the most affordable officants?! Our guests loved her & the beautiful ceremony she gave us & we couldn't be more thrilled that we chose her.

My husband and I took forever to find someone to marry us! We wanted a fun, loving, not boring yet serious enough ceremony! The second we met janette we knew we would love her! She was amazing! She was flexible with everything we needed! My husband was so grateful for her help on the day of since he didn't really know much about weddings(let's face it, the women do most the planning). We would strongly recomend janette to anyone! We felt like we had known her for years right off the bat and she made our wedding day all we had hoped for and more!Thanks Janette!Chris and Samantha 6/4/2011

My hubby and I just got married couple of weeks ago and we couldn't asked for more from Janette. First of all, picking Janette as an officiant was a no-brainer. Her fees are more than reasonable, and she is so easy to work with! If possible, we would have hired her as both as an officiant and wedding coordinator. We've gotten quite a few compliments from our guests about her...we had requested for her witty sense of humor and she made our ceremony so much more livelier, engaging, yet intimate at the same time. There are definitely vendors that I wouldn't hire if I had to do it all over again, but Janette I would hire over and over again. Thanks, Janette!! ^_^

We recently had our wedding at Villa Montalvo and Janette was amazing! She made the whole ceremony fun and enjoyable, not only for me and the groom, but also for the guests. She is super organized and has a great sense of humor. We are both not religious, so we were happy to find Janette was able to marry us. We both loved her from our first meeting and decided on her as our officiant immediately. We highly recommend Janette to future brides and grooms!!!

Upon our first meeting Janette gave us a binder that included all the different options to customize our wedding vows. We found this extremely helpful! She answered all our questions promptly. On the day of the wedding, she showed up a couple hours before the ceremony started, ready to go. The maid of honor and the best man were nowhere to be found when it came time to sign the marriage certificate. Janette roamed around the hotel and ceremony site looking for them, until she found them! This was GREATLY appreciated! I highly recommend Janette as an Officiant. She is reliable, punctual, personable and really knew how to calm my jittery nerves. Her prices are extremely reasonable and she even has the County mail a copy of the marriage certificate to our house for free! This is a bonus services that most officiants will not do. I believe that anyone that hires her for the job will be just as happy as we are!

She was good I forgot my marriage license and she met me the next day to take care of it

Janette was a wonderful officiant. I had looked through a few before her but she was the only one who sent us a packet of different ceremony options. She was very professional and on time for our wedding! She had everything ready and was even prepared for an extra set of vows I threw at her at the last minute. I would absolutely recommend her for any special event. Whether it's a wedding or vow renewal. I have complete trust that she will make it so much more special. Thanks again Janette for giving us a great, memorable and beautiful ceremony!!

It was a pleasure to work with Janette as our officiant and flower coordinator. She was warm, professional, and exceeded our expectations. We especially appreciated the prompt email responses. Her communication was excellent and made us feel reassured that things were taken care of...which they were. She did a wonderful job as an officiant with clarity of voice and gave us tips during our rehearsal. Our flowers looked fabulous and we got lots of compliments. Janette "Say Yes!" is a vendor that I would highly recommend to anyone!!!

Jeanette was very helpful in helping us write our wedding ceremony. We felt very comfortable with her from the day that we met her. She has very unique ideas for making your ceremony stand out from everyone else's. We were able to include my daughter in our wedding ceremony, my huaband and daughter exchanged vows with each other during the ceremony, him accepting her and her accepting him. It brought tears to EVERYONE! She is very talented and has great ideas to give you the ceremony that is def one of a kind.

Tom found Janette on the internet. I liked her from the moment I met her. She is very warm and personable and I felt that she was perfect to be our officiant. Janette gave us many choices and was very responsive to our wishes. She also did our flowers and centerpiece which were gorgeous and even made an extra trip to our home to drop off the flowers ahead of time. Thank you Janette for making our day even more special. Terri & Tom

Janette couldn't have been a better officiant. She made the entire process very easy, helping us craft a ceremony that was a true reflection of us as a couple. She has a very calming demeanor and made our ceremony feel very intimate and natural. She was fantastic, in every way!

Janette was amazing and I can not imagine what we would have done without her! There were a million things that she did to make our day perfect and I could never thank her enough. We were pretty unorganized the day of the wedding and luckily Janette showed up a few hours before the ceremony began and took over EVERYTHING from there. All of the wedding party and my family loved her and could not believe how great her fees were for everything! She also did all of our ceremony flowers, bouquets, and cake flowers and I can not even begin to remember how many people came up to me saying how beautiful all of the arrangements were. From the colors to the ribbons, everything was exactly what I asked for and more. Thank you Janette! I will be recommending you to everyone I know!

We found Janette by chance. The moment we met with her at our home, I felt she was the perfect person to marry us. Not only was she professional and kind, she helped plan our whole wedding. I also used Janette for our flowers and centerpieces which turned out absolutely beautiful! She gave us a book of ideas to choose our vows and helped personalize just for us. If we had to do it all over again, I would recommend to use her as your wedding planner and flowers as well. Thank you Janette for being a part of our special day!Love, Jose and Julie Munoz

Janette is amazing. Any time I had a question through email she was very quick to respond. She is willing to answer and questions big or small. Our ceremony was amazing because of her help and guidance! Many compliments from guest!

Janette did a wonderful job at Russel and my wedding. She helped us create a beautiful ceremony, did an excellent job guiding us through the ceremony rehearsal, and performed well on the day of the event. She was a real breeze to work with throughout the whole process. I'm so glad we found her on this site. I would highly recommend her to anyone! -Liza and Russ Ottovich

Janette married us on February 12th and she did a beautiful job!!!I always pictured a nice romantic wedding and she helped us create just that! Not only did she do an excellent job guiding us through our ceremony rehearsal, she was a real natural the day of the event which helped us relax and really take in every moment and every word she said on our special day. Janette is the warmest hearted person I have ever met. She was not only our officiant, she was our friend.Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Janette for making our day so beautiful! -Richard & Nichole Goins

Bill and I were so impressed with Janette from our first meeting! We knew she would be perfect 5 minutes after we met her. She was extremely organized. She had so many choices to chose from to customize our ceremony that made it special for us. She got back to us promply when we had questions or wanted changes made. She had a wonderful speaking voice for the ceremony. AND she did absolutely beautiful boquets at a very resonable price. The day could not have been any better. I had so many wonderful complements from friends and family about the ceremony. Some said they wished they had had a ceremony like that. Bill and I cannot thank you enough, Janette, for making our wedding day absolutely perfect! If we had it to do over again Janette would be our first choice!

Janette was absolutely AMAZING!!! My husband is catholic so we couldn't use her as our officiant, but it was a blessing in disguise.....not only was she our day of coordinator, but she became our florist as well. She was so dedicated to our every need and detail and made our wedding day PERFECT! The flowers were BEAUTIFUL!!!! They were just what we wanted and more. She allowed us to relax the entire day, knowing that we didn't have to worry about any details, however big or small. Our wedding was pretty extravagant and Janette was the perfect fit for our beautiful celebration.She was the most organized and caring day of coordinator I've ever met and I've been a bridesmaid in plenty of weddings! Thank you soooooo much Janette! We couldn't have been happier with your services!!

What can I say? Janette was absolutely the perfect person to perform our ceremony. We couldn't have asked for better. She was very well organized and had a great speaking voice. She was able to accommodate anything we had asked for, including having my daughter be a part of the ceremony. Out of all of the things that seemed to go wrong that day (like the record 102 degree heat) she was one thing that went so right. We are forever thankful for the beautiful flower arrangements that came out so perfect and exactly what we wanted. When many of our vendors couldn't seem to get things just right -- Janette came through for us. Thank you Janette, we will never forget!

Jeanette was so accomidating to my Husband and I. She was right on time for our rehersal which was quit a drive for her!! She is patient and well orginized. Very professional.
On the day of the wedding we were running a lil behind schedule. She was very Patient and made sure I was doing ok. Our ceremony was beautiful Thanks to Jeanette.
The ceremony was well put together and it was full of emotions and Love. Our guest were touched by the ceremony!

We recomend her 100%

Janette provided us many options for our wedding ceremony, giving us a very personalized ceremony. She had everything in a binder for us which made it easy to plan our ceremony. She was always 100% professional, but caring at the same time. Our ceremony was perfect (except for the wind (-;) thanks to Janette. Janette also did all of our flowers. I loved my bouquet and didn't want to put it down! The centerpieces were gorgeous and just what I had asked for. Having Janette take care of the flowers was a lifesaver to me. I trusted her with the flowers because I knew she understood what colors, style and types of flowers I wanted. Her help with the flowers was invaluable.

Janette married us on June 14, 2009 and we couldn't be more pleased with her professional service and her concern that our ceremony be tailored to our wishes. This concern for our wishes was valuable since our wedding coordinator was less concerned about tailoring our ceremony to our desires and more content in rushing us through a clumsy rehearsal. For us, this made a world of difference because we've never been married before, like many of you reading this, so we didn't have a confident understanding of ceremonial nuances that can make your ceremony look crisp and fluid or clumsy and awkward.Janette's personal approach leading up to our wedding day allowed us, mainly my wife, to direct our wedding stress to other elements leading up to our day. The pre-planning was professional, to-the-point, well-organized and flawless.In short, we'd do it all over again, but not without Janette. We'd recommend Janette to anyone who desires a stress-free and professional ceremony.

Janette was a wonderful officiant for our intimate backyard wedding! IF you are looking for someone that is relatable, professional and caring I would highly recommend Janette Rutherford. She made me feel as though any decision I wanted was the right choice! Our ceremony was simple, sweet and unforgettable!

Janette was great, she arrived on time, very professional. I was so nervous but she made me feel at ease. From the day we met her, we knew right away that she was the one we want to marry us. We were very satisfied with her service. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Janette, A++++++

Janette did a wonderful job at coordinating our wedding on May 30, 2009. She was always there to answer all our questions and always made sure things were done. I am very happy with her work and would even think about hiring her again for any event. Thank you, Janette.

Say Yes to Janette! What a wonderful, kind, warm soul. She made our ceremony the best it could be! Janette was great to work with. We'd highly recommend using her! We couldn't have asked for better. Thanks again Janette!

Dear Janette, I was so fortunate to have found you to be our wedding officiant. You were absolutely FANTASTIC!! in so many ways and I want to thank you so much for being so nice, caring, sweet, generous and just plan loving to me and Donny and our guests.

Talk to yah soon and thanks a million. sincerely,Donny and Ericka Mulky

Janette is wonderful!! She helped us with our wedding at Ruby Hill Golf Club in April. She was very punctual, sweet, articulate, kind and pleasant to work with. We liked her right away at our first consultation meeting with her. She was very organized: put together a nice binder with all sorts of options for our ceremony.

Our wedding was beautiful with Janette's help. Now it is quite interesting to look at our wedding photos: the expressions of many of our guests, who were touched by her words at the ceremony. We highly recommend Janette. She provided for us something special that we will always remember for the rest of our lives.

Jason & I knew that we were going to have Janette marry us from the moment we met her. Her professionalism, kindness, easy going attitude, willingness to accommodate us, and not to mention our instant connection made her the only choice for us. We had been interviewing other officiants and not one of them compared to the magic that Janette brought to our ceremony! Her assistance with our vows left us feeling like we had achieved the perfect opportunity to express ourselves in a way that reflected our personalities best. Janette is wonderful and we would not have had anyone else marry us! Thanks Janette! We love you!

Janette was wonderful. We have had so many positive comments about her and how she performed our ceremony. Everyone loved her and thought she did a fabulous job. She spoke clear and was just perfect. We loved the fact that she was so personable too. She made us feel comfortable the first time we met her. Very professional and organized. She researched certain types of ceremonies for us and really personalized our ceremony for us. I would recommend her anytime.

We could not have asked for a more professional, well prepared officiant. Janette was AWESOME to say the least. She gave us a binder and worked with us to make our wedding unique to us and she included things that we wanted for our wedding. She even wore Biker leathers as our theme was a biker wedding. She made us feel so special and our guests LOVED her. One of my girlfriends even wanted my vows to use at her renewal ceremony. Janette arrived on time and helped us during the process with the paperwork and everything. When I watch our video it still makes me cry!!! We recommend her 5000%!!!! Call her, meet with her you will not be disappointed. I promise.

Janette was great! She helped us design a wedding ceremony tailored to our specifications. She came and met with us before we hired her, so we could meet her and decide if she would be the right fit. She was very warm, friendly, and professional. I would definitely recommend her to someone else.

Janette made our Renewal Ceremony special and memorable in many ways. She is professional, well spoken and extremely accommodating. As a surprise for my wife on New Year’s Eve, I called Janette (at the last minute) and she was able to coordinate and plan a beautiful, unique and meaningful ceremony for us to be held later that same day! The words that she chose were beautiful and thoughtful and thanks to her my wife and I were able to renew our vows in a beautiful New Year’s Eve ceremony. We highly recommend Janette.

Janette-

Thank you so much for your help in making our day perfect. You were professional when it came to the rehearsal and then helped to put a personal touch on the day of the wedding. We had so many comments about the vows and promises that you provided for us and your overall performance. You did such an amazing job. We are so glad that we were able to find you.

Thanks again. Nathan and I couldn't be happier...

Hi Janette!

We are back to real life now and back to our work week!

Our wedding ceremony couldn't have gone more perfectly!! Bruce and I can't thank you enough for your professionalism and patience with how crazy everything got with moving the ceremony inside at the last minute and getting a late start! We felt that the ceremony was heartfelt from your end too and everyone was touched. You really helped kick our wedding day off to a great start...we didn't think being married would feel any different compared to how we already felt about each other and already committed for life...but we both feel completely changed and even more committed. At our age and experience in life, realizing it's a constant effort to stay in touch with each other we greatly look forward to the next 50 yrs and beyond God willing.

Thank you so much for officiating our beautiful wedding ceremony! We will remember it forever and so will many others. Your personality blended perfectly with ours & we really felt your heart was in it & it showed. We can’t thank you enough!

All our Best,

Monica & Bruce Holcomb
