Wilde Heart Weddings
Utah Wedding & Elopement Officiant
At Wilde Heart Weddings, I believe every couple deserves a ceremony that feels truly their own — grounded in intention, shaped by their beliefs, and reflective of the love they share.
​
As an ordained minister and heart-centered ceremony creator, I bring not only experience and professionalism, but also presence, care, and grounded energy to every wedding I officiate. Based in Southern Utah near Zion National Park, I work with couples locally and from around the world; from intimate weddings to destination elopements across the desert Southwest. Travel isn’t just welcome here, it’s part of the adventure.
Non-Religious, Spiritual, or Traditional — Always Personal
Inclusive, intentional wedding ceremonies rooted in the landscapes of Southern Utah and beyond...
The Couples I Work With
At the heart of my work is creating ceremony spaces where couples feel safe to show up fully as themselves, supported and affirmed, free from expectation. Creating an affirming and welcoming space for LGBTQ+ couples is central to that commitment. Your love, your identities, and your story are honored here without assumption or explanation. Many of the couples I work with are looking for a ceremony where they can relax, be themselves, and feel genuinely supported, not just tolerated but celebrated.
​
Many couples who find their way to me are spiritual but not religious, or non-religious while still wanting their ceremony to hold depth and meaning. They’re often drawn to something grounded and authentic rather than traditional or scripted, a ceremony that feels intentional and personal, not simply reduced to completing the legal formalities. Many are planning intimate weddings or elopements surrounded by nature, especially in the landscapes of Southern Utah and the desert Southwest.
Above all, the couples who connect most with my work value kindness, authenticity, and presence. They want a ceremony that feels less like a performance and more like a moment, one where they feel safe, seen, and deeply understood.
Kind Words
Jenn helped make our wedding a truly unique and beautiful experience. She created a very intentional and intimate ceremony based on each of our personalities. We've had the pleasure of working with Jenn for over a year. Finding the right officiant as an LGBTQ+ couple can be tough. Jenn is a thoughtful, compassionate, and caring human being - we couldn't have had the wedding of our dreams without her!

Standing With You
Hey there, I’m Jenn (she/her), the founder of Wilde Heart Weddings.
This work grew from my own spiritual path and a calling to create ceremonies that feel intentional, grounded, and deeply meaningful. What began with becoming an ordained minister has evolved into a practice rooted in care, connection, and storytelling.
​
I approach ceremonies as a guide and storyteller... not just an officiant. I take the time to truly know you as a couple: the moments that brought you together, the laughter, the tenderness, and the beautifully imperfect details that make your relationship your own.
I believe it matters who stands with you on your wedding day. Trust, comfort, and connection are essential, and my hope is that by the time your ceremony arrives, you feel supported, understood, and genuinely at ease.
Your Ceremony, Your Way
Every ceremony I create is fully personalized, shaped around your relationship, your values, and the experience you want to share together. Rather than working from scripts or templates, I guide you through a collaborative process that allows your ceremony to feel natural, meaningful, and truly your own.
​
Couples often come to me when they’re looking for:
-
Spiritual or non-religious wedding ceremonies
-
LGBTQ+ affirming ceremonies rooted in safety and authenticity
-
Handfasting and nature-inspired rituals
- A ceremony that feels intentional, grounded, and deeply personal
-
Desert elopements and destination weddings throughout Southern Utah and the Southwest
Whether your wedding is intimate or surrounded by community, my role is to help create a ceremony where you can be fully present — supported, connected, and able to experience the moment as it unfolds.
