Vow and Venture

Hi, I’m Jen! I’m a Bozeman-based wedding officiant and adventure elopement designer, always ready to travel wherever your love story takes us. I create deeply personal, one-of-a-kind ceremonies designed to feel like your love story in spoken form — the kind that make you laugh, catch you off guard, tear up a little, and wonder how I somehow managed to fit you into every word.

Whether we're hiking up to a mountaintop for vows at sunrise, beside a river somewhere deep in Montana, or surrounded by everyone you love at a stunning venue, I believe your ceremony should be so much more than the thing standing between you and cocktail hour. It should be one of the parts of your wedding day you remember most.

And if you’re dreaming of something a little wilder, that’s where the adventure elopement side of Vow & Venture comes in. I help couples turn a “what if we just went somewhere incredible and got married?” idea into an actual wedding day — from locations, permits, marriage licenses and timelines to rehearsals, logistics and all of those tiny details you didn’t know you needed to think about.

But more than anything, I’m the person in your corner. I’ll make the playlist, capture the behind-the-scenes moments, bring the tissues, calm the nerves, pour the celebratory whiskey and make sure you actually get to be present for the whole thing.

I’m happiest outside, rarely afraid of a little dirt on my boots, and always up for an adventure. Whether you’re getting married here in Montana or halfway across the world, if the plan involves a beautiful place, a meaningful ceremony and doing things a little differently — I’m already in.
