Look no further for a wonderful and talented JP
Dwight was beyond fantastic from the very first phone call to the day of the wedding. Being in the wedding industry myself I had a really good idea of what we wanted to do. We eloped in the middle of New Hampshire, in the woods, in the middle of winter so needless to say we were nervous to find someone that would stand outside in the freezing cold with us but he went above and beyond. Even played our favorite song on his guitar for us. He did a great job. Look no further for a wonderful and talented JP and musician.

Dwight was wonderful! We had planned for an elopement on the kancamagus highway- but Mother Nature had other plans. Less than two hours before the ceremony we called him as it was brought to our attention that this location was snowed in (we are locals and were not expecting this to be the case- but hey, stuff happens). He was very responsive and incredibly flexible- no questions asked and luckily he had service at the time we called. He showed up to the new location we requested and was very kind and professional. He followed our wishes for the ceremony and helped to make our day very special! Dwight is the real deal- we highly recommend. We were quite nervous as anyone would be when getting married and especially in our circumstances eloping but everything went very smoothly and Dwight was a big factor in that! Oh, and he was a teacher for several years- if you could remember your favorite teacher from High School- that would be him! 10/10 recommend. He made us laugh on our special day. Sweet and responsive man.
We were so happy we chose Dwight as our jp. He was amazing to work with, since our first phone call we knew we wanted to work with him. He was great in helping us choose what we wanted to say during the ceremony and it really made it incredibly special and truly unforgettable. I would highly recommend to anyone getting married do not hesitate to hire Dwight! Thank you so much for everything!

Dwight is the best! We traveled from Michigan to get married at Fort Williams Park in December, and he understood exactly what we wanted just from a few communications! Our ceremony was customized perfectly for us, and he even traveled on some slippery terrain to perform the ceremony where we initially planned! I 100% recommend him!
Dwight was very responsive and also flexible on location. We appreciate the quick response and detailed instructions. The ceremony draft was also very helpful with references to other options if desired. Dwight was also very nice and friendly and accommodated special requests. Our wedding was held on the ice at Echo Lake Beach. Dwight arrived early and quickly walked us through the process. He was very professional and the ceremony went smoothly. Would highly recommend Dwight to other couples.
Dwight Phetteplace was professional, punctual, pleasantly outgoing and extremely easy to work with on program ideas. He delivered a perfect wedding service with confidence and ease. He also played the guitar beautifully. Following the ceremony he delivered uninterrupted music, including singing for several hours! We were very happy with the entire event and recommend Dwight Phetteplace for your wedding plans.
My husband is in the navy and his schedule prior to our wedding was very unpredictable. Dwight was so flexible and made no fuss when we asked to change the ceremony time twice (the second time the day of). He always responded in a quick manner and was delightful to work with!
Dwight was amazing to work with. He was very quick to respond any time we reached out and very flexible. We decided to elope at cathedral ledge early morning hoping for a sunrise but instead we got pouring rain but he still made the drive up and was in good spirits. Our day could not have been more perfect thanks to him!
My husband and I throughly enjoyed having Dwight as our officiant! He was flexible, thoughtful and had a warm and friendly personality. Made everyone comfortable. We highly recommend him!
Dwight was amazing! My Aunt was originally going to be the one to officiate my wedding. Sadly, she passed away at the end of April. Her wish was that we continued on with the wedding date. We chose Dwight and he fit in perfectly on our special day. Leading up to the wedding he checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. We had a small backyard wedding. Everyone loved the music he played on his guitar as guests arrived. I will be recommending Dwight to any future brides!
