Jim Williams

A Little Bit About me ….

I am a licensed wedding officiant in the Province of Ontario and have been officiating weddings since 2001. It would be a pleasure to help you craft a personal and meaningful wedding ceremony. I would love to be a part of your celebration as you take your first steps together in your married life.

My Personal Story ….

I was born in Stratford and lived my first decade in this beautiful small city. The next decade of life was spent on the east coast before moving back to Ontario in 1990 and, for the most part, lived in and around the area since.

My Family ….

I have been married to the same woman for over 30 years; celebrating each year together and the blessings we have been given. We both cherish the time we get to spend with friends and family; including our two adult children and our son-in-law. It is also exciting to anticipate the arrival of our first grandchild in just a few months.

My Life Experience ….

I have a unique set of life experiences like everyone else. I believe that it enables me to connect with people from all walks of life both publicly and privately. I have lived on the coast, in the city and in a prairie town. These experiences have enriched my life both personally and professionally.

My Interests & Passions ….

I enjoy spending time hiking, reading and connecting with people. I am passionate about encouraging people and helping them in their journey. It is important to me to invest my time in others so that they are able to reach their potential and fulfill their dreams.

Why Choose Enduring Promises?


What couples are saying

Let me tell you, Jim Williams did an extraordinary job all around. From the consultation all the way until the end of the wedding everything was perfect. Jim is an easy person to be around, which really made the whole process stress free and he made us feel comfortable and confident. As the Groom, being the first one in and waiting for the procession to start can be lot. | felt like Jim had been a friend for years, and that I could relax and be in the moment as the ceremony began. We couldn't be happier with him as our Officiant. He looked sharp, was professional, and had answers to any questions me and my wife had. 10/10 we would recommend and will be referring him to anyone in the future in need of an officiant. Thanks again Jim, we won't forget it!
