Hi, I’m Yvonne — Lead Officiant - Founder, and your personal hype woman for one of the biggest moments of your life. I am Texas based and I’ve married over 400 couples, and no two love stories have ever been the same. I started officiating as a tribute to my sister, who passed away unexpectedly in 2023. She loved us all deeply and wholeheartedly, and celebrating life’s big moments without her was the hardest part of losing her. Helping couples honor their journey and love story has been my way of healing — one beautiful, heartfelt ceremony at a time. Whether your vows are traditional, bilingual, or totally outside the box, I’m here for it. ♥

The ceremony was spectacular. She reached out to us to talk beforehand, and everything she said was truly beautiful. We had a reference from someone else, and we can confidently and wholeheartedly recommend her services. It’s clear that she loves what she does.

Flushing, NY
  • Offers 9 ceremony types

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.

Illuminating Ceremonies was the perfect choice for our wedding. From the very first interaction, we knew Chris was the person for us. He is a true professional and clearly an expert at his craft, skillfully capturing our love story through thoughtful, creative, and engaging storytelling. He took the time to get to know us and what makes us unique to build the perfect flow for our ceremony. It was my favorite part of the wedding! Even on a very hot day, he kept our guests entertained and upbeat, there was both continuous laughter and happy tears throughout the ceremony. The perfect balance and tone for us! Many guests commented to us that they typically don't enjoy wedding ceremonies, but ours was highly entertaining and heartfelt. We highly recommend Illuminating Ceremonies to any couple looking for a wedding officiant who will make your special day unforgettable.

Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 

5.0

Canton, OH
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150

What’s the right wedding ceremony for a religiously independent couple? A courthouse ceremony is cold, impersonal, and over in a flash. A church ceremony is usually just a long sermon to which your actual ceremony is a sideshow. Pick your poison - a quick, dry affair with no heart, or a long, tedious slog that flies in the face of your worldview. Or... chuck that poison and grab the champagne. I got you, boo! I perform deeply personal, customizable ceremonies for couples who truly care about the content of their ceremony and want the declaration of their love and commitment to be truly unforgettable.

Working with Tim was a dream come true! He made the whole process of working together simple and easy to understand. We had fun as a couple answering his questions and he drafted a perfect ceremony that us and our families loved. He came to our rehearsal and made us feel so at ease about the entire process on our wedding day. He also has a wonderful spirit and amazing stage presence. We couldn’t recommend him more! We are so happy he was a part of our special day. Thank you Tim!

Weddings by Danny

Miami, FL

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.

We were originally planning on having one of our best friends perform our ceremony, but we couldn’t bring ourselves to do it, after spending so much time and money planning the rest of our wedding, our ceremony couldn’t be left on the hands of an unprepared person. Therefore, we decided to look for officiants. After interviewing over 5, we knew Danny was the perfect fit for us. His communication skills and professionalism were outstanding. We inquired about his services on his website and we heard from him within minutes! We set up a phone call and he was so pleasant to talk to. He asked us what our vision was for our ceremony, our must have, and what we wanted him to not include. He allowed us to ask all the questions we wanted without feeling rushed. A month before our ceremony we met over zoom, which is super convenient. We went over personal questions so he could customize our ceremony to fit our story. He walked us through what the ceremony would look like the day of ur wedding so we wouldn’t have any surprises. He even asked us which color suit we wanted him to wear! The ceremony was perfect! He was super engaging, smiling the whole time, and my favorite part; he ran away the middle for our first kiss so he wouldn’t be standing in any of our pictures. Just perfection! Even after our wedding, he kept the communication going with my husband and I. He mailed our marriage license back the next business day, and he notified us once we were showing officially married on the county website! If you are on the fence or can’t decide to hire Danny, please make the investment! He is 100% worth it!

I thoroughly enjoy meeting new couples, and I make every effort to perform the ceremony to your expectations. It is an honor to perform weddings, and I look forward to working with you. I have been performing weddings since 2017- check out my website for more reviews! I have performed over 300 weddings, vow renewals, and commitment ceremonies (traditional and same sex). I'm ordained solely to perform weddings; Christian, non-denominational, secular, and judgment-free. I am an active member of a local church community. I'm also a notary (Florida) if you prefer secular certification.

From the moment we reached out to Weddings by Ms. Ellie, we were impressed by their attentive and caring communication style. They responded to all of our questions quickly and made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Ms. Ellie truly went above and beyond, helping us with everything and blowing us away with her professionalism and expertise. We couldn't have asked for more from an officiant - she's truly a blessing and I'd get married again just to have her be a part of it.

Lem LeRoy - Wedding Officiant 

5.0

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.

Our chosen officiant flaked out a month before the wedding and luckily, Lem was available. I already knew vendor quick response time, a contract and more good reviews than bad were requirements. Lem fit all these; was friendly, helpful and rates were reasonable and average. Lem stood out to me because another officiant recommended him. He listened to our needs and was a total professional on the wedding day. A great choice.

Wedding Officiant Julia Garcia

• I love to customize the look and feel of wedding ceremonies to meet the aspirations and imagination of my couples. • Perform personalized, romantic, memorable wedding ceremonies - elopements, weddings, and vows renewal in LA, Ventura, Santa Barbara counties. • Christian 💒, non-religious, non-denominational, LGBTQ+🌈. • I provide marriage license guidance 📜, write wedding scripts ✍️, and help with vows ❤️.

Julia was amazing in the process of planning our ceremony from start to finish, in fact had I not come across Julia our wedding may have had a completely different outcome. When I first inquired with Julia my husband and I were aiming on planning a small ceremony at Santa Barbara court house. Julia took the time and effort to schedule a zoom meeting with us right away and thanks to Julia’s experience we quickly learned the court house was not going to be the ceremony for us. Julia went above and beyond to help us navigate towards a ceremony that would be much better suited for us and our guests to a point that I mentioned she felt like she was stepping into a wedding planner’s role along with being an excellent officiant. Leading up closer to the ceremony she took the time to perfect a draft and mock up of what our ceremony would be like and that began to really easy our nerves. We knew we were in good hands seeing how organized and professional Julia had been during the entire process and the day of the ceremony surpassed our expectations. She took the time to meet with my husband and his parents as they waited my arrival, took leadership in orchestrating the start of the wedding procession and took a moment to meet me in front of the church before the start of our ceremony to calm my nerves and remind me what the importance of our wedding and ceremony was. Days after our ceremony my husband and I got several compliments on how personal and touching our ceremony was and that was a great deal to do with Julia! All in all we would highly recommend Julia and can’t thank her enough for the huge role she played in our wedding.

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.

Mr Lang was the leader and voice of our whole ceremony. His voice was loud, clear, and powerful. His loud, powerful voice commanded a presence throughout the whole ceremony. Before our ceremony we were able to meet with Mr Lang as well to go over options on how we could go about our ceremony. He also sent us the versions we went over to make any changes we wanted to. He was extremely easy to work with and also helped us through the whole process. Throughout our process leading up to the wedding there were some unforeseen circumstances that caused some changes the day before. Even with this happening Mr Lang was able to change everything up and even some decisions being made the day off and everything went on without any issues. I would fully recommend Mr Lang for any kind of ceremony. He will make your ceremony special and lead a ceremony that you will never forget.

Addison, IL

Rev. Phil is a full-time wedding officiant. He is real minister (with a Master of Divinity degree). He has been married to Pam for 41 years. He enjoys watching movies (tries to see all the Oscar nominees), reading newspapers on his iPad, the Bears, summer concerts at the Chicago Botanic Garden and wine. He and his wife love to chat, listen to music and drink wine in front of their fireplace or in the backyard, depending on the season.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Rev. Phill! From start to finish, he made our ceremony feel completely personal, meaningful, and truly about us. He took the time to get to know us and guided us through every step of the process — from the structure of the ceremony to the heartfelt details that made it uniquely ours. His care, thoughtfulness, and genuine spirit shone through in every moment. My absolute favorite part of the entire day was when my husband and I shared our reasons for why we love each other — a beautiful idea that Rev. Phill incorporated perfectly. Hearing those words out loud, realizing how aligned our hearts and thoughts were, and seeing our guests’ reactions was unforgettable. It’s something we will cherish for the rest of our lives, and so many guests told us afterward how touching and personal it was. Rev. Phill went above and beyond in every way. His warmth, sincerity, and professionalism made us feel completely at ease, and it truly felt like he had known us for years. We would not have wanted anyone else to officiate our wedding — he was absolutely perfect for us and worth every penny. Rev. Phill made our day more meaningful than we ever could have imagined, and we will gladly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for an officiant who will make your ceremony personal, heartfelt, and unforgettable.

I always knew my brother was good with words and could speak in front of a crowd, but he truly exceeded our expectations to give us the most memorable ceremony we could have asked for. His speech was the perfect mix of lighthearted jokes, love, personal stories from our relationship, and information and feelings from my husband and I. He truly captured the essence of love and what it means to commit yourself to someone else for the rest of your life. Our guests still cannot stop talking about how great Matt was, even 6 months after the wedding!

Co-creating fun, romantic wedding ceremonies with my couples and joining them in marriage on their wedding day. Seminary ordained in 1997 and legally recognized in North Carolina to solemnize marriages.

We didn't give much time to ourselves and our minister to plan a great wedding but once the day came, everything was just perfect. Upon first meeting our minister, she was quick to help get us started and teach us how the ceremony would go. She gave us examples of other wedding ceremonies and told us in her own experiences how people react during their own ceremonies. It honestly helped us to plan the perfect wedding. We never had a rehearsal and there was some last-minute logistics to plan on the wedding day but by the end of it, everything ran smoothly. We received compliment after compliment of our ceremony and wedding day as a whole and it would have never been possible without her. She is the best and well worth it. Look no further than Kayelily.

My Grandfather was one of the first people in my life to hand me a microphone, and I have found myself holding one ever since. My name is Kaitlin, and I go by The Resonant Officiant. To “resonate” means to “ produce or be filled with a deep, full, reverberating sound” and my goal is to co-create a ceremony that leaves both the guests and the couple with a sense of connection, hope, and lasting memory. Our ancestors were deeply rooted in ritual practices, and while those exact rituals may not fit quite the same as they once did, they brought people together as a strengthened unit - a sense of belonging all beings deserve to experience.

The Resonant Officiant was the perfect choice for our wedding ceremony. Kaitlin, the officiant, was quick, detailed, thoughtful, and efficient in her communication with us throughout the planning process. Her work was truly detailed, lovely, and thoughtful. The way Kaitlin included our children in the ceremony was perfect - she had great ideas that really matched the energy of our intimate, small celebration. Kaitlin took the time to understand us as a couple, offering direction while also allowing our own ideas to lead the ceremony. We felt honored to have The Resonant Officiant lead our special day.

Since 2005, we’ve brought love stories to life through heartfelt, personalized ceremonies. With expert guidance and genuine care, we help you create unforgettable moments celebrating your one-of-a-kind bond. It would be a joy and privilege to officiate your special day.

Where do I even begin. Pat was ABSOLUTELY amazing. We met with Pat before signing with Koru Ceremony and knew after that short meeting she would be the one to marry us (I even canceled my other appointments with other officiants). Pat took time to get to know us, who we were individually and as a couple and created a ceremony that was absolutely us. When we first got our script for approval, I cried. We also received so many compliments after the ceremony on how great it was executed. We couldn't have asked for a better day and Pat started the afternoon with a beautiful ceremony, one we could have only dreamed of.

There’s something sacred about standing with two people as they speak their vows and begin a new chapter—and I absolutely love standing with couples - I never take that for granted! Congratulations! I’m Angie, the heart behind Ceremonies By GieGie, and I believe your wedding ceremony should feel like home—personal, beautiful, and unmistakably you. I’m not your typical officiant reading generic lines. I take time to get to know your story, your humor, your hopes—and weave it all into a ceremony that feels intimate, joyful, and meaningful.

We had an amazing experience with Angie from Ceremonies By GieGie as our wedding officiant. From our first interaction, Angie was compassionate, thorough, and professional in her communication style. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted a ceremony that was thoughtful and detail-oriented. Angie included our guests in the ceremony and made our vows feel very personal. We are so grateful for Angie's contributions in making our special day truly memorable.

Minister Honeychild brings warmth, soul, and style to every ceremony. Known for heartfelt storytelling, a calming presence, and fully custom scripts, she creates inclusive, unforgettable celebrations that feel personal, joyful and deeply you.

Minister Honeychild was the perfect choice for Ryan and I. Her communication style was thoughtful, natural, and heartfelt, which made our ceremony feel incredibly personal and intimate. We talked with her beforehand to discuss our ceremony wants, and how we felt about each other. She was able to seamlessly incorporate our personalities into the ceremony in a way that was truly special. I would highly recommend Dorien to any couple looking for a genuine officiant to help make their wedding day unforgettable.

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.
