Janelle Shortt

I’m a friendly, caring, high-energy individual with a terrific sense of humour; one of my favorite things is meeting new people. Married to my husband and long-time partner for many years; we have a son and two beautiful granddaughters. Living just outside of Owen Sound on the beautiful shores of Georgian Bay with our only 'baby' still left at home, Sassy, an 80-pound Doberman who thinks she is a lapdog. In my spare time, I sing bass with a woman’s barbershop chorus for 20 years and am also part of a quartet with the same group. Music has always been a large part of my life and it isn’t unusual to hear me singing away. I have a passion for sewing, gardening, stained glass creations, decorating and most of all being Grandma. As an Appointed Designated Minister with Clergy Support Church, I would love to have the opportunity to officiate at your custom wedding ceremony and know I can help make your day a truly exceptional and memorable experience.

We had a beautiful ceremony all thanks to Janelle. She did a wonderful job for our ceremony and helped make our day extra special. Janelle was super accommodating when we wanted to add and remove certain pieces of the readings. We both would highly recommend Janelle to any of our friends or family! Thanks again Janelle!

This lady in one word is simply AMAZING. Janelle Shortt was my favourite vendor for our wedding to work with. Jan is very kind, accommodating and very much an earth angel. She went out of her way to make our day special. I'm personally grateful she's in our life, and I look forward to visiting with our new friend in the summer. I hands down recommend Jan and All Season Weddings to our engaged friends and family. Elaine & Peter Aug 2018

Not only did Jan Shortt meet our expectations, but she really helped make sure we had our special day just as I had envisioned. She also allowed for the fact that we were only arriving into the country the night before and sent along updates and some great ideas/thoughts for us. Great big thank you to Jan for helping make our day so special.
