The Gay J.P.

The Gay J.P. is a Justice of the Peace based in Branford, Connecticut, offering wedding ceremonies at a turn-of-the-century home located just two minutes from Branford town hall. Couples can choose to hold their ceremony in the garden, which features a gazebo, water features, and prize-winning roses, or indoors by the fieldstone fireplace with a baby grand piano in the foyer. The Gay J.P. also travels to officiate at venues selected by couples, working alongside their chosen team of wedding professionals. The Gay J.P. provides guidance through the officiating process and offers support for couples who wish to write their own vows or incorporate personal elements such as unity candles into their ceremony. The service is designed to be flexible, accommodating couples who need a simple officiant or those seeking assistance in planning ceremony details. The Gay J.P. has received WeddingWire Couples' Choice Awards multiple times, including wins in 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018.
