Jilian was extremely helpful. I had a phone meeting with her one day during my lunch break at work a few weeks before the wedding on a day that I was under quite a bit of stress, and I was relieved when she told me that she had already taken care of many details related to my wedding plans. She had great ideas, and, with her help, my parents and I planned my dream wedding. I highly recommend Jilian to plan your wedding. More...

Jillian is a great officiant! Her online vow ceremony set-up was great and helped us know exactly how the ceremony would go without having to have a lengthy or in-person meeting prior to the wedding. Jillian was also on time and stayed around for a bit after the ceremony to make sure all the paperwork was filled out appropriately. I would 100% recommend her for your Daytona Beach area wedding!

Jillian was wonderful throughout the experience. We planned the wedding through emails and she was very easy to communicate with. Jillian was great with my son and even took some photos for us when our photographer ran late. We couldn't have picked a better person to officiate. More...

On May 4th Jillian Shaw officiated my wedding ceremony. Let me just say that she did an outstanding service for Billy and I.
I must also say that this was a backyard wedding and it was raining. Jillian Shaw stood in the drops of rain with us, I can’t express all the emotions I was feeling but I can say we’re 100% satisfied and would definitely recommend!

We are so happy with our experience with Jillian with A Lovely Engagement! We planned a last minute (less than 2 weeks notice) private beach wedding on the beach in New Smyrna Beach. Jillian was very responsive, flexible, and really helped guide us through the entire process - from applying for our marriage license (we’re from out of state) to personalizing our vows to even taking a few pictures for us after our ceremony. The process was easy, stress-free and exactly what we wanted. Thank you for everything Jillian! More...

Jillian was awesome to work with! Our wedding went off with out a hitch and everything was perfect! The beach setup was beautiful and she handled everything, which took so much pressure off of my wife and I. This was even more important since we were out of state. We arrived in Florida on Saturday and, without any hiccups or headaches, Jillian had us all set up and performed our ceremony on Sunday evening. I couldn't have asked for more!

As any couple, or woman would, I long dreamed about my wedding day and event.
It was a second marriage for both of us, so not a grand wedding, but intimate, special, timely and just PERFECT was our goal.
She delivered!
I have never met anyone so very in tuned to our needs, on OUR day!
Even though four ceremony and wedding lasted a relatively short period of time, Ms. Shaw was there- PRESENT- every minute.
I remember looking into her eyes during the vows and feeling her give to my husband and I the expression of love for the he and I to bond with, hearing her every word with grace and sincerity.
She actually made the difference in this entire wedding- she made this remarkable for us.
We have NO DOUBTS that her ability to perform any ceremony or special event is expertise and highly sought after.

Picture yourself relaxing on your wedding day with your Maid of Honor, Bridesmaids, your Mother, and your soon to be Mother-in law in your bridal suite drinking mimosas, eating snacks, laughing and having a carefree day all while preparing to marry the love of your life. Your phone isn't ringing off the hook with vendors calling you wanting to know where to go or what to do. Your bridal party isn't running around putting out fires when they should be relaxing with you getting their hair and makeup done. And, you're not worried about a single thing. Does this sound like the perfect wedding day to you? Well, this was my wedding day and it was absolutely perfect because we hired Jillian as our day-of coordinator. My husband and I planned our wedding and had a blast doing so. But, we needed someone to bring all of our already planned details together for a smooth and seamless wedding day. One that we could relax through as we prepared to make a lifetime commitment to each other. Weeks before our wedding, Jillian began reaching out to all of our vendors and provided them with her contact info and detailed itineraries so every single person associated with our wedding knew exactly what was going on at any given moment. Jillian had color coordinated itineraries for our entire wedding party at the rehearsal. She made sure everyone knew exactly what to do and how to do it. She thought of things before they even happened and had a plan to overcome any hurdle. We have received compliments from nearly every single guest regarding how orchestrated our wedding was and we still cannot believe that absolutely NOTHING went wrong. When we first began discussing vendors, we were not sure we needed a day-of coordinator because we planned every detail and thought we could handle it. But, after reading Jillian's reviews and looking at her perfectly organized and informative website, we decided she was a necessity. Hiring Jillian was on of the smartest decisions we made! More...
