Words from the couples I’ve served


For nearly two decades, I’ve walked with over 150 couples in Santa Barbara as they began their marriage journey. My heart is always to create ceremonies that feel personal, meaningful, and true to each couple.

“I highly recommend Jono Schaffer as an officiant—he was easy to connect with and made the experience feel like we had known him for years. He was fun to work with, and we received countless compliments from our guests about how beautifully he led the ceremony. Thank you, Jono, for setting the perfect tone and making the moment truly memorable!”

“Jono was an absolute joy to work with! He helped us plan out how the ceremony would go, gave us options for things we didn’t have strong opinions about, and made sure we loved everything he was going to do. He made our ceremony special, personal, comfortable, and filled with joy. We also had the added benefit of doing premarital counseling with him, which was incredibly helpful as we prepared to become husband and wife.”

“My husband and I had the privilege of having Jono officiate our wedding this past summer, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He did such a wonderful job telling our story and made the ceremony truly memorable. Jono is so joyful, personable, and genuine—we feel so blessed to have had him part of our special day!”
