    Janet Westall with Mr. & Mrs. Contreras...
    Berny C.

    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. Mr. & Mrs. Contreras

    We didn't have a wedding rehearsal but it felt like we did- everyone who had a role did a great job at Janet's direction.

    Choosing David as our wedding officiant was one of the best decisions we made. From our very first…read moreconversation, David was incredibly professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in getting to know us as a couple. He communicated clearly throughout the entire process, explained every step with ease, and made us feel completely confident that our ceremony was in the best hands. What truly set David apart was how heartfelt and personal our ceremony was. He took the time to learn our story, our values, and what mattered most to us, and he wove those details beautifully into the ceremony. It never felt generic or scripted. It felt authentic, meaningful, and deeply reflective of who we are and the journey we share. Many of our guests commented afterward on how emotional and sincere the ceremony felt, and several asked if David was a longtime friend because of how personal it was. On the day of the wedding, David was calm, reassuring, and impeccably prepared. His delivery was warm and confident, striking the perfect balance between reverence, emotion, and joy. He created a space where we felt fully present, grounded, and connected to one another in such an important moment. If you are looking for an officiant who is not only highly professional but also truly cares about crafting a ceremony that feels uniquely yours, David is an exceptional choice. We are so grateful he was part of our wedding day, it was everything we hoped for and more.

He really took the time to get to know me and my husband prior to our wedding day. The speech he wrote was as if he had known us for many years. He is very knowledgeable and professional. Even though it may have rained during our ceremony We all had a smile on our faces. It was the best day of our life. David made everyone feel at ease and knows how to roll with it and pivot where needed. We knew we were in great hands and appreciate David for being part of our special day. I highly recommend 10/10.

    Jeff was absolutely incredible! Coming from a bride who hadn't attending a wedding in my adult life…read more- I didn't know what to expect at all, and that made the ceremony very nerve wracking to think about. Jeff made sure I felt in control and confident through every step. Jeff was personable, friendly and very professional. I would recommend him to any of my friends in the area without a second thought. Thank you so much!

    My husband and I got married in Escondido at Ethereal Gardens, August 2025. We searched high and…read morelow for the perfect pastor/officiant that we knew would not only do a good job but someone who could match our values and priorities for our ceremony. Jeff was the most incredible officiant we could have ever asked for. He led our ceremony with such warmth, sincerity, and ease that it felt both deeply meaningful and effortless. I really appreciated how thorough he was in walking us through how the ceremony would go, and made sure we felt confident going into the big day. He captured exactly what we wanted our wedding to feel like and set the perfect tone for the rest of the day. Everything was so beautifully said and done by Jeff. So many of our guests came up to us afterward asking where we found him, which speaks volumes about the impact he made. He even socialized with some of the groomsmen and guests which I thought was cool because he got to connect with our people and created a presence that was more personal and sincere. Looking back, I truly couldn't imagine anyone else standing up there with us. Jeff made our day unforgettable, and we are forever grateful for him. If you are reading this in search for someone to officiate your wedding, stop here and reach out to Jeff. I PROMISE you won't regret it!!!!! He's the bomb!
