Joanna was the best! From our first meeting, we felt that she really understood us as a couple and the kind of ceremony we wanted to have. The ceremony she wrote was funny and beautiful and really spoke to us. We got so many comments later in the night about how great Joanna did. She was super sweet and very professional and I would definitely recommend her to anyone else getting married.

Joanna was one of the best things about our wedding -- she wrote a beautiful, personal, touching and funny ceremony that was tailored to my husband and I. Everyone complimented our officiant and the ceremony -- and many people told us that they cried during the wedding! Joanna is so easy to work with, she is flexible, and always prompt, and just a very calming presence on the wedding day. I know that I will remember the ceremony as one of the highlights of the wedding, and many of my guests will too!

I can't say enough positive things about Joanna. We had originally planned on eloping to NYC and finding an officiant who would perform a standard, "easy" ceremony, thinking that the specialness of the day would be marked by the fact that we were married. When looking for someone my wife found Joanna's ad, and we are so incredibly happy that we did find her. Instead of a ceremony that simply got the job done, Joanna crafted a beautiful, thoughtful, personal service that we will always remember. Working with her was a joy. From the very beginning we knew we were in good hands. Through the whole process she was always responsive, knowledgable, sensitive, and asked questions that helped us to look at our wedding and its meaning in a deeper way. So highly recommended!

If you are looking for a very personal and touching ceremony then i highly recommend Joanna Fernandes. Joanna worked with my husband and I in creating a ceremony that not only my self and husband will never forget but our guests will never forget as well, especially from my husbands family, whom is from out of state. It not only explained our promises to one another but told the story of who we are as a couple which was very moving to the people who do not get to see us regularly. I continue to receive compliments and i'm sure i'll be hearing them for a long time!
