Carol was simply the best! Her communications from the initial planning stages all the way through the ceremony were exceptional. She was thorough and very professional. We highly recommend her services!

Carol Merletti was amazing, our wedding day was perfect! I planned my wedding in one week and the ceremony was incredible thanks to Carol. I would definitely recommend Carol to any couple that want an outstanding ceremony.

Carol is wonderful! We had a fantastic time planning the wedding and it turned out to be so romantic and special - We're very grateful!

My fiancé, now husband, decided 2 weeks before our
Wedding to bump up our date from summer to February.
Carol was not only available on short notice, but was accommodating
In every manner possible. We wanted an intimate ceremony at home with
Just our most special lived ones. In one correspondence, I had mentioned
How shy I am speaking in front of others; she immediately put me at ease with kind words &
Warm reassurances. She made our wedding exactly what we had wanted from the
Beginning - romantic, intimate & so utterly meaningful to the both of us. For this we are
Endlessly thankful.

Carol was a complete pleasure to work with. She put us at ease and the ceremony was terrific.

Carol was great! on 24 hours notice she managed to help put together a "shotgun" ceremony in the Public Gardens that was perfect, this vows that were both appropriate and memorable.

Carol was amazing through the whole process. She helped write our vows, provided a beautiful certificate and even saved my wedding cake from melting!! Truly a warm,caring person.

Carol was a sweet woman. She is very responsive and very on point.

Wedding of your desire by Carol is a 5 star all the way. Carol went out of her way to make sure my sisters wedding day was perfect just like we wanted. Carol is very professional, super flexable and the communication was excellent. Having my sisters wedding at Carol's home was a dream come true. The house was decorated so beautiful, there were flowers, candles, photos, the place is just dreamy even her dog stopped by. The wedding photos came out beautiful inside as well as outside. We felt welcome from the minute we arrived. I will recommend anyone to Wedding of your desire it's the place to be on your specail day. The ceremony was beautiful.

Carol was very helpful. It seemed like I had no time for details but Carol picked up the slack for me. Very responsive to phone calls. Everybody liked Carol!

Carol was an amazing Officiant! She helped me write the ceremony that I really wanted, it was unique and completely us. Carol was also responsive to my emails and phone calls and at the wedding she was well spoken and professional, we had a wonderful wedding and we were so happy to have Carol as a part of it!

Carol was a wonderful officiant, she was very professional and responsive to our needs as a couple. I would highly recommend her to a friend!

Carol was absolutely amazing. She really made our day that much more special. I would highly recommend to anyone. She was responsive with emails, helped us with our vows, gave us options for ceremonies, was willing to travel on our day and at very little cost. We feel very lucky to have contacted her and used her services. if you are getting married, you want her officiating.

Carol was a great JP, very easy to work with. We did not do a rehearsal so before the ceremony she made sure to speak to the appropriate people and give them the run down of their roles. It all went down without a hitch. She has some great token things she does for ceremonies like Wedding Box and Rose ceremony ( we did rose ceremony ) just an added thoughtful thing to add into the standard non religious ceremonies.

carol is AMAZING!!! she was so much fun to work with and was also very easy to talk to. whenever i had a question, she was right there to answer it and guide me in the right direction. i would definitely recommend her to everyone in need of a great officiant!!!

Finding Carol was the best thing that could have happened to my husband and I. She was so professional, organized, on-time, so so nice and was amazing to work with. The words that she uses are so unique and beautiful and she does weddings for free for military, police and firefighters as a giving back to those who serve, which we had no idea until after we booked her and we were very wowed by her heart and are very thankful to her.

What can we say about Carol. Great ideas, puts you at ease, great personality, great communicator. First of all, pre-ceremony, we didn't have a large wedding party, so we didn't have a rehearsal. Carol quickly went over the processional and recessional with us at the function hall so that we felt comfortable. The actual ceremony was all ideas that we saw on Carol's website. The wine box ceremony, and the inclusion of our five year old son were talked about days after the wedding. Hands down the best officiant that I have ever seen. Carol, thanks for braving the hurricane to be our officiant!

Carol was absolutely wonderful to work with! She listened to everything we had to say and also guided us when we had questions. The ceremony was beautiful and we received so many compliments from all our guests. She is professional and very responsive; always getting back to us quickly if we had questions. If Carol is your officiant, you're in very good hands!

My husband and I are from the UK, so we had to book a Justice of a Peace over the internet. This could have potentially been a bit of a risky process as you don't really know what the person is like or the quality of their service. However, when we came across Carol's website we were immediately impressed by how much detail there was about herself and the service she provides. It was also nice to see all the pictures of the married couples. We contacted Carol and even though we live abroad, she was happy to talk to us on the phone to discuss the details of our ceremony. Carol sent us the run-through of the ceremony, which we could change depending on what we wanted. We decided to write our own vows, which Carol offered to print out and bring on the day, which was really helpful. Overall an excellent service and a very warm and friendly ceremony.

Carol did a wonderful job, she made the whole process easy and painless. We received so many compliments about how beautiful our ceremony was. We would highly recommend Carol and cannot say enough about her.

Carol was absolutely wonderful! She listened to what we would like and wrote the most beautiful wedding ceremony. It was the most special day in our lives and we could not have done it with out Carol. We will pass on her name to all of our friends. THANK you so much! -the November Crew

Carol makes the entire process very easy, especially if you're not the type of person who wants to script the entire ceremony yourself. She provides templates that you can use for the ceremony, your vows, and more. She will help as much, or as little, as you would like, but will never push her ideas onto you.

Carol is extremely knowledgeable about the entire process, and is sure to provide you with all the details you could need (from where to get your marriage license to how much it will cost). However, she will never try to charge you for anything that you don't need. For example, we had a very small wedding (25 people), and she was very honest in letting us know that it would be a waste of our money to have her included in any sort of a rehearsal. Instead, she simply showed up 30 minutes before the ceremony to get all the necessary details taken care.

Carol is always very professional, and is a pleasure to work with.

Carol was wonderful from the beginning stages of planning right through to our ceremony!! She was very articulate and clear when speaking during our ceremony! Her centered, positive attitude was the perfect compliment to our excited anxiety about walking down the aisle! She assured us that everything would go smoothly and it most certainly did. Best value around as we looked into a lot of different officiants. Her website is the most impressive one around!!!! THank you again Carol for making our ceremony very special. Best wishes always. With love, Ashley and Kamy

Very nice lady and paid attention in detail .. with a flexible time (7:00 PM) schedule and places. definitely recommend to my friends

We couldn't have been happier with Carol's service and we highly recommend her. She was extremely professional and helpful with providing information about the process and answering any questions we had. She arrived to our wedding on time and prepared. She was very friendly and made everyone feel comfortable. Carol takes pride in what she does and it shows!

Carol was fantastic.... from the moment we booked her (a year and a half ago), I knew she was going to be great. Fast forward to a week before the weddingWe had finished our planning.....but, we forgot to confirm her as our officiant. She called back right away to confirm that we were still on her schedule, and I am SO happy we didn't have to choose anyone else. She was pleasant, friendly, and professional. Our ceremony was kept short and sweet, and she was so good, we recommended her to a family member ;)

Carol is a vessel of information! She was absolutely wonderful and patient at my sons wedding. Even though we started an hour later than scheduled she told me not to worry about it. I would recommend her to everyone I know who is looking for a Justice of the Peace!

Thank you so much Carol!!!

Cheers!

Cheryl Spagnuolo

Carol Merletti's professionalism and genuine love for making a couple's day special, helped to make our day perfect!. We invited people to a barbecue and a couple of hours into the event, Carol helped us to surprise all 80 of our invited guest! She was a big part of this fantastic day! Thank you Carol!

It was a real pleasure working with Carol on scheduling my wedding

Carol was absolutely wonderful and accommodating with our last minute elopement. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and had everything organized, she even helped us pick the perfect spot at the Arboretum. Thank you! Would highly recommend to any couple looking for the perfect wedding officiant.

Carol was on time , got everyony ready, told us what to do and where to be I had NO worries!! And she is so sweet, makes you relax and feel like you know her and she knows you.Very helpfull with your vows and anything special you would like to do. She is Awsome. You will love her right of the bat as soon as you talk to her.Thanks Carol Love Renee and Mark Bisson of Natick MA.

Carol was great to work with! She was always available for questions and advice during the planning process and officiated a beautiful ceremony for us! Highly recommended!!! Thanks Carol!

Carol was amazing!

Throughout the entire process she was a wealth of information - between helpful hints before the day of the ceremony (when we were just getting started with the planning and logicistics) or helping my husband go over the process of everything the day of the ceremony (and just generally being a calming presence amongst the nerves), I can safely say that Carol is the best officiant that I could've ever imagined or dreamed of!

I am so happy that she was there for us on our big day - I can't even begin to imagine going through that special event with anybody else!

Carol provided us a excellent experience of wedding offciant process, she worked very careful and detaily with every single step of this process. We feel lucky to have Carol be a part of the most important day in our life.

Carol was incredible. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect ceremony. She is so sweet, and we will always remember her :)

Carol was wonderful!

A true professional, yet with a very personal touch. Very timely with emails and correspondence leading up to wedding. Great website. Totally hassle-free and we loved having Carol lead our special day.

There is a reason that Carol has so many reviews, all of them 5 stars – it’s because she is so wonderful! From our fist phone call to the ceremony itself, Carol was a delight to work with. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable about performing wedding ceremonies, and her expertise is limitless. She helped us write the perfect vows for our ceremony, and she has wonderful, unique ceremony ideas that people are sure to remember. We utilized the love letter and wine box ceremony designed by Carol, and people are still talking about what a great idea they thought that was, and how no one had seen it before. Carol, we are so glad we chose you to marry us, you were the perfect choice, and we wouldn’t have changed a thing. Margot and Jim, April 30, 2011

Carol is AMAZING. She was professional, and extremely helpful from start to finish. She has a lovely personality; obviously a very caring person. I would recommend her to any couple.

We loved Carol! Our ceremony was quite simple, but the vows she helped us with made everything so beautiful. Very helpful and professional. Easy to speak to, as if you've known her for more than the 20 minutes over the phone.

Between the time we decided to get married and the actual wedding was only a few weeks. I emailed Carol and we were on the phone only a few days later making plans. Because I'm from Canada (getting married in Boston), Carol spent close to an hour with me on the phone going over the process of getting a license and giving me ideas for our small ceremony. The vows she sent for our non-religious ceremony were perfect, although we were given the option to make changes if we wanted. Carol also made a certificate for us to take home right from the ceremony that was great!

Our family and friends that were in attendance loved her. Carol was very friendly, professional and super helpful!

We really were lucky to have her :)

Carol J. Merletti was wonderful to work with. She is professional, nice and incredibly accomodating. She is willing to work with the bride and groom and make their ceremony as personable as they want. She also has a fun personality!

Working with Carol was very easy from the start. It's nice to work with someone who knows exactly what they are doing cause in the beginning we had no clue. Also we incorporated two of her unique ideas into our ceremony, and we received multiple comments on how beautiful the ceremony was and how many of our guest had never seen anything like them (not a dry eye in the whole place) it was amazing thank you so much Carol.

Carol was the absolute best! She married my husband and I on top of the Green Monster at Fenway Park in the middle of January, with only 6 weeks notice. With my husband being stationed in Afghanistan we had a limited window of opportunity that Carol was extremely generous and flexible with. It was by far the best day of my life and Carol made it all possible! Thank you Carol!

Carol was absolutely lovely! We were very fortunate to have come across her and we are so appreciative for her genuine thoughtfulness and work ethic.

I would recommend her for any type of ceremony! I truly believe she loves what she does, and she adds joy to an already joyous occasion. We wish her the best!

I believe it was the best decision that we choose Carol J. Merletti to marry us. She's nice, warm, friendly, responsible, professional and she has a lovely home if you need a place for a small wedding.

Carol was great! She knew exactly what she was doing (cause we had no idea)...and really helped with anything we needed and questions we had at the reheasal & the wedding.

Carol is a wonderful officiant who provided us a very fitting ceremony. We felt that it was very reflective of our personalities and liked being able to customize it as much as we liked.

Carol did an amazing job officiating our wedding. She was extremely professional and made both me and my new husband very comfortable during the ceremony. She is very easy to get in contact with, responding promptly to my e-mails. She is also very flexible regarding the vows. You can really make them your own.
I highly recommend her to any bride and groom. Thank you Carol! -Signe and Neil

It was our pleasure to have Carol officiate at our wedding. She provided excellent services and helped ensure we had the ceremony of our desire (even on our short notice). She was very accommodating and we felt very comfortable with her. We appreciate her support and generosity on our special day.

Best officiant in Boston! Carol was immediate with feedback, ideas and suggestions. She was more than just an officiant for us. She became our friend. Carol was extremely professional and conducted a very memorable ceremony at Fenway Park! Carol's overall demeanor was fun and patient with a hint of excitement. Carol will be our first choice when we decide to renew our vows!

Carol was an excellent Justice of Peace for my wedding ceremony. She was so helpful in advising and planning our ceremony. She was very flexible when I needed to change the time of the ceremony. I would recommend her services to any of my friends and family members. Thank you, Carol!!!! : )

Carol was amazing her words and professionalism were 2nd to none. she goes above and beyond for her clients.

Carol was great!
We are from Canada and the communication prior to the big day was amazing!
Carol was happy to help us with every question we might have had along the way.
We are very pleased we had the pleasure of having her as our Officiant and would recommend her to anyone!

We were very happy that we chose to work with Carol for our wedding ceremony. Not only did she work closely with us to design a ceremony that was meaningful, she also provided some great wedding advice - from the big picture about life, and the small practical details about what to do when getting a license, how to best walk down the aisle etc. And while i was crying during our vows, she subtly passed the tissues she keeps with her to me! She's very detail oriented and just a wonderful person as well. it was such a special day, and she was a big part of that!

My wife and I can't say enough about Carol Merletti. She is kind, caring and incredibly courteous. She takes the time to answer all questions and really helps you to put together the wedding that YOU want. On the day of the ceremony, she is right there to answer any last minute questions, soothe nerves or even give a little last minute direction. In short, she's fantastic. My wife and I are so glad we found her. We really don't think we could have done any better.

Bill & Joanna Gould

Outstanding service, we would recommmend Carol to anyone!!

As mother of the bride I had most of the contact with Carol and she was wonderful! She is kind and sweet and it is very obvious that she loves what she does! I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a wedding officiant!

Carol Merletti was one of the most down to earth people I've ever met.
our expectations were met and then some! Thanks Carol

Carol was great to work with. Everything was very organized and quick. We didn't end up meeting beforehand, we were able to set everything up with an hour long conversation and everything turned out flawlessly. I will absolutely refer Carol to everyone!

She gave us an exellent service and did everything to make our day a memorable one.

Carol was amazing! From the day I first called to see if she was available for our Fenway Park wedding, she was friendly, helpful, enthusiastic, and patient. She gave us tons of suggestions and supported our Sox-themed wedding, right down to the vows. I had so many guests come up to me after the ceremony with compliments for her friendly and professional style. And my husband said Carol kept him calm!

If you want a truly nice person to officiate your wedding, you want Carol!

Carol was amazing!! Our ceremony was beautiful and we received a lot of compliments on the originality of it. The fact that she performs wedding ceremonies for free for active military and firefighters is so touching and much appreciated. I highly recommend her!

Carol was absolutely wonderful, made you feel extremely comfortable and relaxed. Very accommodating, great sense of humour and made our day extremely special! Would highly recommend the services of Carol Merletti.

Carol was fabulous! She was flexible and patient throughout the whole experience. Carol was also very welcoming into her own home to my large group of family and friends! Thank You Carol!!

We had a very informal service but had a lot of logistic issues. She was so knowledgable and helpful in helping us arrange every detail. It was far more then we expected from our officiant. She went out of her way to meet our complicated needs and last minute changes:)

Carol was perfect, very profession and friendly. All our guests love the ceremony and vows and especially the box with the wine, glasses and love letters!!!
Thanks again
Sincerely Mr & Mrs Anthony Mento

Carol, you are a phenomenal person! We had so much fun working with you. Thanks so much for being the charming person you are so we could have our dream come true ~ getting married on the Green Monster! Everything we went through was worth it! Our tour guide was rude but you found a way around that little bump. Everyone is amazed that we pulled this off and it's all thanks to you! You went above and beyond what was expected of you. You had us laughing so hard ~ you are a blast! Thanks so much for the awesome memories from 7/17/10!!

Shane and Sue

Carol gave us extremely good advice, she was more than helpful and very flexible. We had planned a outside wedding and approximately fifteen minutes prior to the ceremony the sky opened up, Carol was very calm as they moved us into the chapel. Carol really helped us stay calm as she arranged a new ceremony for us, completely unplanned. The ceremony went perfect thanks to Carol.

Carol is a wonderful caring person who takes her duties serious and with a personal touch.

Carol was great my husband and I are from Pennsylvania . Carol made everything so easy she took the stress right out of the wedding day I was not worried at all she gave us all of the information we needed to plan a long distance wedding . The ceremony was very beautiful Thank You again Carol !!

Sean and Heather Rohrbach

Carol was a delight to work with. Carol was extremely professional, creative, and caring. She helped my partner and I navigate all the outs and ends of apply for a same sex marriage in Massachusetts for out of state residents. I would highly recommend Carol to anyone who is getting married. She made our special day even more special and we cannot thank her enough.

Carol married my Husband and I on June 26, 2010 at the Danversport Yacht club. She did an amazing job. She made me feel really comfortable and asked our daughter to help her give us the rings to make her feel like a huge part of the day. We had a small intimate wedding with just immediate family and she made it very special for us. Our guests told us what a great ceremony it was. I highly recommend Carol Merletti if you are looking for a Wedding officiant.

Carol did a fantastic job making us feel comfortable and, most importantly, making our intimate ceremony feel special. We loved her personality and charm. With respect to vows, she was ever so helpful presenting ideas for us to work with. Thank you for everything -- we'd recommend you to anyone!

Carol officiated our wedding ceremony in June 2010 and was an absolute joy to work with. She provided tons of insight and help into our vows and really helped us make a special, memorable ceremony. She was a huge help and so much fun to work with.

Carol was so wonderful. She was professional and kind. we enjoyed speaking with her to design a wedding service that was to our liking. She made all changes we requested and wrote beautiful vows for us. We were so impressed with her full dedication to our wedding.

Carol was amazing! Super helpful throughout the entire planning process and very responsive to any questions that we had. On the day of the event, she was great and prepared (from having done 474 before!). We got many comments after the ceremony from our guests about how great she was. Highly recommended for any couples looking to get married in the Boston area.

Carol was great! We completely customized our ceremony, and Carol was so helpful throughout the entire process. She sent us a standard wedding template and a lot of reading material for various options for readings and phrasings of everything. She had great ideas for involving family in the ceremony and did not judge us for any of our preferences. She was very personable and pleasant to work with.

Carol is professional and is easy to work with. She incorporated a beautiful blessing that made our vows even more special. She will work with you to make your day as special and unique to every couple. I highly recommend Carol.

My husband and I were married by Carol on May 30th, 2010 at the Danversport Yacht Club. It was our dream wedding ceremony and I can not compliment Carol enough for what several of our guests said was one of the most beautiful wedding ceremonies they have ever seen. Our guests greeted us and and could not stop telling us how wonderful Carol was as an officiant and how absolutely romantic and beautiful they found our ceremony, particularly Carol's unique wine box and love letter ceremony. This signature ceremony of Carol's was a HUGE hit with our guests and something that 100% of our guests had never seen before as part of a wedding ceremony. More than a few of our guests had tears in their eyes. We feel incredibly lucky we found Carol to marry us and could not imagine a more perfect ceremony. If you are a bride looking for a truly extraordinary officiant, look no further!!

If you are looking for a Wedding Officiant, then we highly recommend Carol Merletti. She is extremely professional as well as organized and reassuring. Carol stayed in touch with us every step of the way, providing helpful tips and advice. She let us know what to get, when to get it and how (license, vows, special ceremonial items, etc) She was reassuring as well as calming during a very hectic and stressful time. She made our wedding such a special and memorable day for us, our families and our friends. Thank you again Carol... we love you!

Carol was the Officiant for our wedding and she did a great job. When we first met with Carol she spent a long time working with us and giving us everything we needed to design our ceremony to our liking. She suggested a Wine box ceremony and butterfly release that we decided to go with and it ended up being amazing the day of the wedding. We got great comments from all of our guests who said they loved either the Wine box or the butterflies and that it was one of the nicest ceremonies they had seen. Carol dresses very professional and we would highly recommend her services to anyone who is getting married.

Carol made a great day even better. She was very flexible and was very open to the last minute changes that we made. Our guests are still telling us what a great ceremony she performed.

Carol was absolutely fantastic. We could not have found a better JP.

Carol was absolutly unique,funny,great personality,made my mother special day even more special.

Carol Merletti was GREAT!!! She was professional but still friendly. She made my special day even better. I am so glad we choose her instead of the many others we interviewed before her. Just take the time out to talk to her and you will know she is the one to choose.

I have had the pleasure of working with Carol multiple times on both a professional and personal level. She is one of the kindest and most sincere people I've met in this industry. By having Carol officiate your wedding, you are guaranteed to truly have a wedding of your desire!

I've heard and read so much about Carol in the past couple of years, and was so surprised when she showed up to perform a ceremony I was hired for! She was as great as her reviews make her out to be! Would definitely recommend her to my future brides.
