CEREMONIES Janet Westall

Janet is the type of person who automatically becomes part of the family. She helped plan exactly the type of ceremony that we wanted. We laughed, I cried and everything was perfect.

When we set out to plan our intimate destination wedding at South Coast Winery in Temecula, we needed to find an accommodating and knowledgable officiant that could help us start our new life together. Janet Westall fulfilled these needs and provided the experience that ensured our day was perfect.
Since we were not from the area, Janet was accommodating to our limitations and not only emailed and phoned us information but also met with us halfway between Los Angeles and Temecula to personally guide us through the marriage process. Her guidance included a variety ideas for everything from ceremony readings, wedding vow tips and marriage license requirements to personalizing our ceremony. She helped us include our children in the wedding and even translated portions of the program into Spanish.
Janet Westall’s knowledge and experience shined the day of our ceremony. Her calming presence proved invaluable with our restless and nervous children. From the moment she arrived at the venue she knew the exactly the way the proceedings should take place. She calmly explained this to our 9 year-​old son and 5 year-​old daughter so they’d know what to expect. Janet also carefully instructed our witnesses on how to properly sign our marriage license in order to avoid delays from the Register-Recorder’s office. She even interacted with our small guest list and even snapped a few pictures for them so they’d not only be familiar with her put so that she didn’t seem like a complete stranger.
Overall, we were completely happy with Janet Westall’s professionalism in her field. She helped us live our dream on our wedding day and will forever be grateful for that. We sincerely would recommend Janet as an officiant for anyone considering her and her services.

Absolutely amazing! Janet is everything I wanted my officiant to be. My mom couldn’t make it to my wedding and I felt like Janet was a mother figure, she even wiped my nose as I cried while saying my vows, LOL. I would recommend her to anyone! She also helped me create meaningful vows when i drew a blank.

Janet was our officiant at our wedding on Sept 1^st 2012 at monteleone meadows in Murrieta, It was a little hot that day, but we all got through it. Janet was so awesome at our wedding !

We had an amazing experience with Janet, and her husband Fred today. We are from Nevada, and worked to create our elopement package by email. Janet was so kind and personable, very easy to speak with and she offered many suggestions on things to do and places to see in San Diego. We were married at the Hotel del Coronado on the beach.
As soon as we met Janet and Fred (we needed a witness, and he was kind enough to be ours), we were immediately comfortable with them. It was like they were family.
We found a beautiful place on the beach, and had our ceremony there. It was perfect! Janet made us feel so comfortable, like we were the only people in the world during our ceremony. We could not have asked for a better person for our wedding.
