I am not only able to wed couples in NJ and PA, but also in DE. I was given the honor of being the Delaware wedding officiant in June for Devon and John’s wedding at the absolutely stunning Bellevue Hall near Wilmington. It was a beautiful day, everyone was in very high spirits, and Samantha Jay Photography was there to capture it all in these completely gorgeous images.

Devon and John were an absolute delight, and working with them to create a beautiful and personalized wedding ceremony was a lot of fun. They added a couple of unusual touches to their ceremony, including presenting each of their mothers with a gilded rose, and switching sides mid-ceremony to read to each other the lovely vows they wrote. They’re also fellow animal lovers, and even met on one of their first dates at the Philadelphia Zoo. They had butterflies released after the ceremony as well, a few of which made their way to Devon’s bouquet (and yes, those pictures are amazing too!).

Thank you so much, Devon and John, for giving me the honor and pleasure of performing your wedding ceremony. Thank you for the kind words you wrote in your review, and a special thank you to Samantha Jay for sharing these stunning images!
