Illuminating Ceremonies 

5.0

Flushing, NY
  • Offers 9 ceremony types
  • Starts at $900

I am your guests' favorite thing about your wedding. Since 2011, I've been writing and performing personal, meaningful and refreshingly engaging ceremonies for couples just like you and couples who are nothing like you. Couples work with me with an easy, collaborative process during which I become your favorite part of wedding planning. I take guest experience and your wishes very seriously. Your families will thank you for getting somebody who makes the ceremony light while still making clear how beautiful it is that you found each other. I officiate all over the US.

If Chris is available on your big day, look no further and just book him. We were so unsure of where to turn as we are not religious so we didn't have a preacher but also didn't have any family or friends we could visualize to do our ceremony, which so many people do now (Hire the pro!). I'm so so glad we found him! Chris is great because he does a great non-religious ceremony, under 30 minutes (what we wanted), and is so engaging, funny and easy to work with. Our guests loved our ceremony so much and wondered how we knew him (spoiler alert: we didn't know each other before we booked him for our wedding) because he made our ceremony so personal and told our beautiful love story so masterfully. After speaking with Chris my now husband and I both immediately wanted to move forward with him. After booking we got a somewhat long questionnaire, parts were for both of us to fill out together and we each had other parts that we filled out individually telling our version of our love story in our own words which made for a quite fun ceremony. While the questionnaire was long it was necessary to have the personalized ceremony we both wanted. We were able to meet with him in person when he was in Cincinnati, he also works in NYC, for another wedding and he is such a joy to be around. Once he was done with our ceremony he sent us a draft and we made a few small adjustments but it was PERFECT. Chris also ran our rehearsal and he did amazing organizing everyone and making sure that people knew what they needed to do. The ceremony couldn't have been more perfect on our wedding day, he has great timing, he is funny, engaging and had about 75% of our guests crying by the end. The video of our ceremony gets me misty every time. Thank you again Chris!

Weddings by Danny

Miami, FL
  • Offers 10 ceremony types

Hi! I’m Danny! A wedding officiant who believes your ceremony should be the heart of your wedding day — personal, joyful, and true to your love story. Whether you’re dreaming of a meaningful, story-driven ceremony, something short & sweet, or a little in between — I’m here to guide you, support you, and create a ceremony you’ll remember forever.

Danny was an incredible officiant! From the first interaction his supportiveness of love and marriage is apparent and his professionalism and passion for his work is second to none. His calls to learn his couples and the way he incorporates that information into his speech was very touching and makes the entire ceremony feel so much more personal. He worked with our thoughts of what we wanted to have read within the ceremony and what type of unity ritual we wanted - which we actually ended up opting for his signature “tequila” unity. Our family and friends continue to make comments about how beautiful and impactful his words were and we’ve probably listened to our ceremony video 3 or 4 times in the last two weeks still absorbing his message of commitment and beauty of marriage. We are so thrilled to have had Danny as our officiant and would recommend him 100x over for the couple looking for a beautiful, customized, clear and memorable wedding ceremony! Thanks a million for being the perfect addition to our milestone!

Lem LeRoy - Wedding Officiant

Waxhaw, NC
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $250

I am an ordained minister based in the Charlotte metropolitan area. I've served a local church as a minister and music director in the region for over 20 years. I've had over 30 years experience of helping couples plan and facilitate their wedding ceremony, in grand or intimate venues, either as an officiant or as a musician. I grew up in a small town outside of Athens, GA and graduated from the University of Georgia (GO DAWGS) in 1995 with a Bachelor of Music degree concentrating in piano and voice. I've been married since 2006 to my wife, Ellen and we have three beautiful children: Kate, Meredith, and Owen.

Lem LeRoy, the wedding officiant, was a real pleasure to work with. My husband and I were really nervous about choosing an officiant for our wedding because we didn't know what to expect, but Lem made the entire process easy and seamless. He was very thorough, asking all the right questions to understand what we wanted our day to be like. Lem always followed up with us and made sure we knew what we needed when it came to the marriage license, taking that stress off our plate. He also made sure the ceremony was exactly what we wanted it to be, changing anything we asked him to. Lem took the time to get to know us better, which really shone through in the personalized ceremony he created. We are so grateful to Lem for helping make our wedding day special and memorable.

Why settle for the same clichéd, predictable service everyone else uses? You're unique, and your wedding should be, too. I'll work with you to design the perfect ceremony to match your own individual style and personality.

A few hours after my husband and I got engaged, I asked him, "What if we just had a super tiny wedding and got married in a week?" Cue a mad scramble to find an officiant, photographer, and venue. We had already spoken to one potential officiant who didn't ask us any questions or tell us what he was planning to do—not great—so when our photographer recommended Dave, we were thrilled he was available. When we met up over Zoom to talk, it was clear he's very smart and funny, and loves love without being mushy about it. He crafted a ceremony that was short and sweet, complete with a reading that was a great match for us. I loved that he sent us the full script with free rein to adjust it to our liking. I, an endless word-fusser, only made one small change. On the day, he was already laughing with our witnesses when we arrived, and it set the scene so beautifully for us to have a joyful, laid back ceremony. It was perfect. He's happy to provide ideas but really wants the ceremony to work for you as a couple. He'll talk about his outfit options for you to choose from. (We went with a navy suit but he has a rad hot pink one too if that fits your vision. I suspect he would gamely wear an Iron Man costume or KISS makeup if that were your dream.) That open thoughtfulness extends to whatever kind of ceremony you want—big or small, religious or secular, traditional or offbeat. Zero judgment, just a steady stream of smart questions, good ideas, and caring support. And he writes the best emails. I haven't laughed that hard or felt so sparklingly clever in writing in years.

When unexpected challenges arose, Dawn went above and beyond — even stepping in to MC our reception after our DJ had to cancel. If I could give her 100 stars, I would. While I hope to never need her services again (for obvious reasons!), if I did, I would choose her again without hesitation.

Hi, I'm K - and I can't wait to meet you. I believe your wedding ceremony should be uniquely yours and one you feel proud of. As a wedding officiant, I specialize in crafting custom ceremonies that are playful, joyful, and deeply sentimental—bringing laughter and heartfelt moments to your big day.

I am not an affectionate person. I was not looking forward to being put on display in front of 200 people to get married. But I did know that K would help me get through it. K was our officiant for our Wedding in 2019 and I couldn’t have asked for a better person. As a family friend, I knew K could give us the ceremony we wanted, and boy did she deliver. We wanted spiritual but not religious, we wanted special but not cheesy, and most of all we wanted someone calm, cool, and collected like K. From the blessings before dinner to the entire ceremony she made everyone feel welcome and loved. I honestly think I looked more at K than my now husband during the ceremony because I was so nervous. K has a genuine presence that makes everyone feel included, important, and at ease. She has a calmness about her that is infectious and makes you want to be a better person. I can’t recommend K’s services enough! No matter your event, whether it be a celebration or a time of need, K will provide that beacon of light to help you get through it.

Terence Ward, the founder of Weddings in the Gunks, believes that everyone deserves to have this important moment in their story celebrated with a healthy mix of dignity and joy. Exactly what's in that mix is more up to the clients than anybody else. It can include sacred religious moments like blessing the couple or fasting their hands, science fiction elements like a Bajoran blessing, time-honored traditions such as breaking a glass, and remembering loved ones who are no longer with us.

Terence is fabulous! My husband and I got married with a surprise elopement on New Year's Eve in 2021, and Terence acted with such professionalism and discretion (which was appreciated, hence the surprise). Planning/coordinating was easy - he was quick to communicate with/respond to us about details regarding the ceremony, which was wildly helpful, as we planned our elopement just 1 month in advance! My husband and I were very nervous before our ceremony, and Terence's warm, friendly demeanor helped us feel more comfortable and at ease. I would definitely recommend Terence's officiant services to other couples. Whether you're planning a traditional ceremony or a simple elopement, he'll do a great job for you!

Jackie had good and quick communication starting from the moment we reached out and throughout the whole process. Jackie was super helpful with making our ceremony unique to us and special by including small pieces that we asked for but also by having some suggestions of her own. There were many guests after the ceremony that told me what a good job Jackie did. She was super supportive during our wedding day and made us comfortable throughout the whole process.

As times have changed so has the face of religion. We have learned that you can be spiritual without being religious and, at the end of the day, all any of us truly want is to give love and receive Love. So what better service could we offer but to be the person on your wedding day to put the words of love and commitment into your ceremony so that you will Love Your Moment.

Where to even begin… Lisa was amazing from our very first phone call! She made was feel comfortable and accepted. We were worried that we would have a hard time finding an officiant willing to marry us in Texas, given we are gay, and Lisa not only calmed our nerves but wrote a ceremony embodying “Love is Love.” We also chose to do a tequila shot with a pickle back and were pleasantly surprised with how well she incorporated that into our ceremony with quirky analogies. The entire evening our guests kept telling us that this was the best ceremony they have ever heard. If only we could use Love Your Moment for more than just a wedding… we would book them 10000% of the time! Do yourself a favor and book them for your special day!

Todd Rodarmel has been happily married for 37 years and he loves helping other couples get happily married too. After being a pastor in California for 30+ years, their family moved to Nashville. Todd and Traci love to travel in their van and explore our beautiful country when they are not at home playing with their kids and grandkids.

Our experience with Rev. Todd Rodarmel from Nashvows.com was truly wonderful. From the very beginning, his communication was perfect - he was open, responsive, and made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. As a couple getting married at the Gaylord Opry Hotel in Nashville while living in Michigan, having a pastor who could meet with us over Zoom was incredibly helpful. Rev. Todd took the time to get to know us and incorporated personal touches into our ceremony that made it feel so special and meaningful. You can tell he truly loves what he does and has a deep passion for God. On the day of our wedding, his kind words and guidance helped us feel relaxed and allowed us to fully enjoy our special day. I would highly recommend Rev. Todd to any couple looking for an officiant who will make your ceremony unique and unforgettable.

I believe that a wedding ceremony should be more than just words. It should feel like home. A moment so personal and full of love that it stays with you forever. That’s what I create for every couple I marry. I’m not just an officiant - I’m your friend, your guide, and your biggest cheerleader. I’ll be there to steady your nerves, share a laugh, and remind you to soak it all in. Because your love story is one-of-a-kind, and your ceremony should be too.

We had a small wedding with our children and close family. My wife’s favorite city is NYC. Jackie was incredibly helpful with recommendations for flowers, makeup and places to eat. We wrote our own vows and Jackie wrote a perfect ceremony incorporating a poem my wife sent me early in our relationship. It was a beautiful day made even more special by Jackie and Sascha. We feel so lucky to have found the Reinkings.

Congratulations!! Your wedding marks the beginning of a whole new chapter of your life. It is a day that you will carry in your hearts forever & I would be honored to be a part of your celebration. Performing wedding ceremonies is one of the most joyous & rewarding activities that I have the privilege of participating in!

Rev. Deanna Lancaster was a pleasure and an honor to work with. She provided a ton of scripts of ceremonies she has performed for us to build our ceremony off of. We didn't realize we had the option to use prewritten vows until we read her scripts and that was a relief to discover. Choosing her was one of the best decisions we could have made because our ceremony is still my favorite part of the entire day. We made a Frankenstein of a script from all the ones she provided, she sent her updates, and we got a the exact ceremony we wanted. She knew to move out of the way for the ceremony kiss and performed the ceremony beautifully. After the ceremony, she handled our marriage license (in an extremely timely manner) and let us know as soon as everything was finalized and official! Then she included the scanned version of our license on the email and provided a cute certificate keepsake on the day of. It was just so wonderful to have her around on our wedding day and for that I am truly thankful.

About wedding officiants

What kind of weddings can officiants help with?

We’re proud to offer officiants that offer secular weddings that focus on the couple’s love, commitment, and personal values; as well as officiants aligned with specific faiths. These officiants can perform ceremonies according to the traditions, rituals, and doctrines of that particular faith.

Can officiants help me with my vows?

We know that couples like private and personalized vows, and there are definitely some officiants who can help with this. We offer officiants on Zola that support non-secular ceremonies that allow you to tailor your vows and commitment in a memorable and meaningful way.
