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. ♥

Yvonne was absolutely incredible to work with and we can't thank her enough for all she did to make our wedding special! It started with an intro call where she really took the time to get to know us, our story, and we were able to share and connect in the fact that we are a blended family. She then translated that call into the most beautiful account of our love story during our ceremony that we will never forget. She was calm, cool, and collected throughout the entire process, which really took any stress associated with the day away completely. She is awesome, it is clear that she loves what she does, and we highly recommend her through and through! Thank you, Yvonne!

Illuminating Ceremonies

Flushing, NY

  • Starts at $800

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.

We love Chris! He was so incredibly genuine, kind, hilarious, and he knows how to handle a crowd. He was certainly born to be doing what he does. He spent months in communication with my husband and I making sure he knew us as a couple. I recently attended a wedding where the officiant mispronounced the brides name throughout the whole ceremony. Chris is the opposite of that. He’s going to know you and your story by the time he’s up there marrying you. And to top it all off, he dropped a wisdom bomb piece of advice on my husband and I, on the day of our wedding, that I think of often. I absolutely cannot recommend him enough!

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 care about the content of their ceremony and want the declaration of their love and commitment to be truly unforgettable. 800+ ceremonies, 500+ rehearsals, 17 years!

Tim is the BEST we could have hired for our ceremony. He is so personable and professional and truly made our ceremony feel so special and unique to us—we even had guests asking how we knew him, or if he was a family member or old friend. He puts in the effort to learn about us as individuals and as a couple and crafts a ceremony that is specifically tailored to our love story. We laughed and cried and everything in between—it was so special. Our ceremony was our absolute favorite part of our day and we have Tim to thank for that. 11/10 recommend.

Thinking about having your good friend officiate your big day for you, but unsure of how they will do? Well what if your good friend was a professional with over 2,300 weddings under their belt? That's the best way to describe what we shoot for at MBE ... being the good friend that definitely knows what to do when the moment counts! Whether you plan to have an intimate elopement ceremony or if you've been working on your dream wedding for months, we'd love to help you make your day one to truly remember. Our goals are to help you decide exactly what you want to do on your big day and to do everything we can to make it come to life!

One of the most complimented parts of our entire wedding day was our ceremony, and that’s all thanks to our incredible officiant, Evan. From the beginning, we knew we wanted a ceremony that felt meaningful and personal, and Evan delivered that and so much more. He met with us ahead of time, walked us through everything, and really took the time to understand our story. When the big day came, he absolutely nailed it. He shared our love story in such a heartfelt and light-hearted way, beautifully weaving in some of my favorite scripture. There was laughter, happy tears, and so much joy…he truly set the tone for the rest of the day, and helped calm my nerves more than he probably realized. To top it all off, Evan is a true jack of all trades, his company also offers bartending services! Right after the ceremony, he jumped behind the bar and kept the good vibes going. So many of our guests told us how much they enjoyed chatting with him and how great the service was. If you're looking for someone who can do it all,and do it with heart….Evan is your guy.

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.

I found Danny on Instagram while watching a clip of him officiating another wedding. I started scrolling through his page and was instantly drawn in. His feed was full of funny and relatable memes, like making sure to run out of the way for the first kiss photo, and that your guests should enjoy your wedding verses preparing for it. It was clear from his posts that he’s interactive with couples and tailors each ceremony to their unique style. Danny was the perfect fit for our October 11th wedding. Most of our guests were from Chicago and spoke only English, while some of our family members spoke only Spanish. As the bride, I speak only English, so I asked Danny if he could do the ceremony mostly in English & simply add a "splash" of Spanish to make everyone feel included. He didn’t hesitate, he made it happen beautifully. From the moment I reached out, Danny made me feel comfortable. He ensured my fiancé was on board, explained the entire process clearly, and took the time to learn about our love story. He even asked if we wanted specific Bible scriptures, and had some beautiful ones ready in case we didn’t. Danny took all the guesswork out of planning the ceremony. On the day of, he came fully prepared and delivered a flawless experience. At one point, we thought it might rain and had to consider switching to a shorter 10-minute version of the ceremony (originally planned for 30 minutes). Danny reassured us it would be no problem. Thankfully, the weather held up but his flexibility and professionalism were so appreciated. Danny, thank you for making our day so special!

I’ve known Norman (and the newlyweds) for years, and watching him lead the ceremony was truly amazing. I had the pleasure of being a bridesmaid, and they honestly couldn’t have picked a better officiant! He made everything feel so warm and personal, heartfelt, and even a little fun! He gave us smiles, he gave us laughs, and he perfectly captured the couple’s personalities. Weddings can be hectic and stressful, but he made sure that on the big day they were calm, confident, and completely at ease in front of everyone. It was very natural, very organic, and I loved that. The ceremony flowed beautifully, and so many of us were smiling, laughing, and even tearing up at the perfect moments. The bridesmaids cried, the groomsmen cried, we all cried. But it was all happy tears, such a beautiful thing to be apart of! We all had such a great time, and you could just tell how much thought and care he put into making their day special. If you want someone who’s professional, warm, and makes the whole experience unforgettable, someone who’s going to reflect on your personalities and your journey as a couple, and someone to really move and make your guests feel that love in the atmosphere, Norman is the man to call!

I take pride in the fact that I’m a connector and listener. I love getting to know people and learning and helping to share their stories. And I’m happiest when I’m able to help people take those stories and turn them into something meaningful, whether it’s a wedding ceremony or a marriage proposal or whatever milestone you’re holding space for. Through thoughtful questions and deep conversations, we'll collaborate on crafting your one-of-a-kind ceremony.

We were going back and forth between having a family member or a professional officiate, and we eventually landed on Miriam. It truly felt like the best of both worlds because it feels as though we made a new friend in her. Miriam has such an warmth about her, and you can tell that they truly love connecting with couples to make each ceremony perfectly "them." They listened to all our ideas and created a ceremony that was so unique to us and full of little personal details. Miriam also coordinated and ran our rehearsal, which made the logistics feel so easy. On our wedding day (and even days after!), so many of our guests came up to us to say how beautiful the ceremony was and how much they loved it. We cannot recommend Miriam enough!

David was a wonderful choice to have to officiate our wedding!

He’s also very good at improv for when any situations arise, there was a couple of goofy moments during the ceremony that he was able to improv with, and it made the whole wedding even more special!

The service is consistently praised for its professionalism, warmth, and dedication to crafting unique experiences for each couple.

I've known Kim for a long time. I saw when her business started and how it's grown into something so beautiful that has blossomed and helps people. She puts her heart and professionalism into every ceremony she performs. No two ceremonies are alike because the couples and their stories are different and personal to them. My husband and I were Kim's 100th couple that she married. It's so amazing that she's almost married 250 couples by now!!! We were so happy and honored to have her write and lead our ceremony. Our ceremony was very intimate with my husband, myself, our young children, and Kim. This was the second marriage for the both of us. It was in a private and beautiful place that we chose that was special to us and our story. Kim met us there. Kim gets to know the couple getting married, the story of how they met, and what they want to include in their ceremony. If you need help with ideas she has a wealth of resources to help you get exactly what you want for your most special day. She's led many little and big ceremonies.

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.

The Resonant Officiant 

5.0

Clayton, NJ
  • Offers 9 ceremony types

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.

Hiring Kait as your officiant will be the easiest & best decision you make. She truly wants to make your ceremony exactly what YOU want. She takes the time to learn who you are as a couple, understand what you want in your ceremony, and creates pure magic to make it better than you could imagine. On our wedding day she even went out of her way to remind us to soak it in and enjoy it amidst the morning chaos, which we needed to hear! Our guests still talk about how perfect she was in creating a ceremony that spoke exactly to who we are as a couple. Not to mention she is an incredible human who is the greatest joy to be around. Choosing who will marry you is a big decision but don’t even second guess the decision to have Kait be your officiant!!

Deerfield, WI

  • Starts at $595

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.

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.
