So easy to work with and makes your days special

Dr. Janine Burns was so wonderful from the moment we first reached out to her until the day of our wedding. She works with you to create a beautiful ceremony on your special day. She did a wonderful job incorporating my son and tailored the entire thing to our wants and needs. She was such a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for an Officiant for their wedding.

How To Avoid the Post-Wedding Blues: The Post-Wedding Blues (PWB) can happen when you’ve gotten overly wrapped up in and put a lot of time, attention, effort and focus upon the details, planning, and ex*****on of your wedding celebration. It’s not surprising because the average wedding takes more than two hundred and fifty (Yes! 250) hours to plan.
Due to your intense, and perhaps even extreme, focus upon the outcome of your wedding day, when your special day has come and gone, you could feel bummed out or as if you are in a tail spin. You might feel as if you are in mourning and actually you could be, because this experience can be what is considered an “unacknowledged loss.” Symptoms include feelings of exhaustion both mentally and physically; poor sleep states; feeling tightness in the chest area or throat; digestive upset. Emotionally you could feel relieved and empty at the same time; you could feel sadness and yearning for an elusive ‘something.’
To avoid the PWB and feeling down after your wedding, it’s imperative to keep a balance in your life during the planning process. Be sure to have other tasks and goals that you can focus upon while you are also managing your wedding planning. It is essential to have some “we time” with your fiance’. Perhaps you could go to the gym together; spend time in nature; go dancing; cook together; find some special activity to share. Then, when the wedding day has passed, you won’t be walking around in a daze with no responsibilities, goals or dreams to focus upon.
Keep in mind good self-care, which includes scheduling time to engage in creativity, fun, and relaxation. Avoid sweets and be sure to get sufficient sleep and exercise. Take time for meditation or breathing exercises.
Make a commitment to yourself and your spouse to stay in the present moment as much as possible. Don’t get involved in too much “futur-izing” and worrying that your wedding day must be perfect.
Be determined that you are going to have an awesome wedding day! Then on your special day remain focused upon the man or woman of your dreams! Relish the excellent time shared with beloved family and cherished friends. And, that’s really what a wedding is all about: celebrating the connection of love with all those around you! Enjoy the process of getting married! Dr. Janine Burns

My bride did a lot of our wedding planning. It was my job to find the officiant. I had brief phone conversations with a few local people, but I ended up choosing Dr. Burns because she told me how she could help me de-stress. I got through the ceremony and standing up in front of all those people and...

I write Wedding Tip for my couples. Here is #13. on "Look For the Good and Be Grateful". Having an attitude of gratitude begins a process of transformation that strengthens, energizes, empowers and invigorates our minds. It re-generates our emotional nature and our physical body. An actual surge of energy seems to permeate the atmosphere and can be felt as an energizing activity in both our mind and body.

We’ve been so oriented to be externally motivated that we have not developed our capacity and ability to be grateful in every moment for whatever it is that is happening in our lives. Often, our negative judgments have locked us into a very limited way of seeing life.

We can choose to either live a vital and fulfilling life or be victimized by the events of life. Everyone experiences the highs and lows of life. Those who live as victims get mentally stuck in negative judgment. Those who live as victors have practiced being grateful in all things and can more quickly move out of negative feelings such as disappointment and despair.

As we persistently give thanks, we create an Attitude of Gratitude. This is a self-developed attitude where we see the inherent good in and through all things. You can start practicing giving thanks by having an Attitude of Gratitude for your Wedding Day Celebration! If your attitude needs adjusting begin by being grateful - in advance - for all the expected and unexpected good of your special day. Be grateful that yours turns out to be a fantastic wedding celebration! This attitude can energize you and will transform your mind. More and more you will see and experience circumstances going smoothly and things happening with ease.

Enjoy the process of getting married!
