Hi, I'm Joan--Celebrant, Officiant, Storyteller
Creating Meaningful and Memorable Personalized Ceremonies
Every life and every love holds a unique story that deserves to be honored, whether it’s a couple’s love story or the memory of someone deeply loved. At Heartfelt Custom Ceremonies, I design and officiate engaging, meaningful and memorable weddings, memorials, and life milestone events that are one-of-a-kind and rooted in your love or loved one's life story. Whether non-religious or spiritual, traditional or modern, multicultural or interfaith, every ceremony is created with heart, intention, and authenticity.
I works closely with each client, listening with care and shaping something that feels just right. I genuinely love what I do and feel honored each time I’m invited into someone’s most important moments, making every ceremony beautiful, memorable, and sincerely yours. Whether I'm officiating a ceremony on a beach in Naples or a beautiful venue in Fort Myer, I’m often told it feels like planning with a close friend, which makes sense because my heart is in every word I write and every moment I help create.
Heartfelt Custom Ceremonies offers personalized weddings, memorials, and milestone events led by Florida wedding officiant and funeral celebrant Joan Bogwill. Serving Naples, Fort Myers, and Southwest Florida, each ceremony is crafted with care to reflect your unique story.

Memorials
I believe every life deserves to be remembered in a way that feels honest, heartfelt, and true to who they were.

A ceremony that reflects the life they lived and the love they left.

Ceremony Script Writing
Not everyone needs an officiant, but every ceremony deserves words that are honest, meaningful, and true to the moment. I specialize in crafting custom ceremony scripts for both weddings and memorials, carefully tailored to reflect the unique story, values, and emotions behind each occasion. I’ll help you find the words that feel right.
