Mary Jane Ryan-Connelly

Mary Jane was our celebrant/officiant. She had an extremely positive attitude and went to the great lengths to draft the perfect personalized ceremony for us. She is extremely well organized and prepared giving us tons of samples of ceremonies. We designed a diverse ceremony which included a hand fasting, rose ceremony and wine ceremony and our guests couldn't stop talking about how much they enjoyed our ceremony and found it to be very personable. After the wedding Mary Jane made up a formal decorative keepsake copy of our ceremony and sent it to us as a gift. We really can't attest to the chemistry that needs to coexist between you and your vendors as they are either going to make or break your day. You want to make sure that they understand you and your vision and Mary Jane did just that. She was a former Marriage & Family therapist and that definitely is something to her advantage in her job as a celebrant.
