Reviews for We Do: An Inclusive Guide When a Traditional Wedding Won't Cut It

""Jason's a great fi t for folks who live for that extra bit of pizzaz that can elevate otherwise ordinary moments to something much more unique and fun. By sheer luck I've had the pleasure of attending FOUR of Jason's weddings . . . One more and I get a free wedding!"" - Darren Criss ""Our day was zero percent stress and a hundred percent joy. Jason made that possible. He gets our highest recommendation."" - Steve Pasquale & Phillipa Soo ""New York weddings can be daunting-especially in our case, inviting a bunch of actors on a Monday (which could've been like herding cats). But JMK was unstoppable, handling every detail with grace, humor, and effortless style. He took our chaos and turned it into pure magic. He understood we wanted the classic elegance of a New York wedding without the fuss. At every turn, he had suggestions to keep a touch of whimsy to the chic downtown New York proceedings so that our guests (and us!) could truly relax and enjoy the night."" - Erika Henningsen & Kyle Selig ""Jason knows everything one could possibly know about planning a wedding. On top of that he happens to be a wonderfully entertaining writer as well. Get this book then go out there and get married!"" - Augustus Prew & Jeffery Self ""For our wedding, we wanted something personal, full of heart, music, humor, and meaningful touches that felt unmistakably us-and Jason not only listened, he truly got us. He collaborated with us every step of the way, bringing our vision to life with care, creativity, and the comforting presence of someone who felt like (and has become!) a lifelong friend."" - Drew Gehling & Julia Mattison ""Jason was an incredible person to work with. Easy going, understood all our quirk and whimsy, and executed it flawlessly. He went above and beyond-even finagled Bernadette Peters to leave us a congratulatory voice message. He played it just as we cut into our Bernadette Peters Rice Krispie Treat Wedding cake. Did we mention it was quirky?"" - Gideon Glick ""Working with Jason is like planning a wedding with one of your best friends . . . one of your best friends who also happens to know absolutely everything about planning weddings. A fabulous experience. 10/10 would recommend."" - Alysha Umphress
