John-Peter was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process! From the initial consultation meeting to the ceremony itself, we couldn’t have asked for a better minister. He was prepared and gave us options and suggestions of different wording to use for the ceremony. He was also super easy to talk to and great at explaining how the process would go. I would definitely recommend John-Peter to anyone that is planning their wedding! Thank you so much! November 2023

From the very beginning, John Peter Smit was proactive in learning our preferences for what we envisioned our ceremony to be, ensuring it truly reflected our joint religious beliefs, and our values. On the day of the wedding, his professionalism and warmth brought a sense of familiarity and comfort to our ceremony, helping smooth over stage fright butterflies for the wedding party. This allowed us to focus instead on enjoying the once-in-a-lifetime experience. In addition to this, he also played a crucial role in coordinating the ceremony timeline and guiding guest etiquette. Our day wouldn’t have been the same without his thoughtful and supportive presence. We highly recommend him to any couple looking for an officiant who truly cares about making their day unique and memorable.
