Mesquite, TX

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. ♥

Blissful & Blessed Unions was the perfect choice for our wedding officiant. From our very first conversation, the communication was quick, thorough, and felt like she was in my mind, understanding exactly what I wanted. On the day of, her words were truly moving and heartfelt, perfectly on point with the theme and vision for our ceremony. She streamlined the entire process, handled any needy guests, and kept the timeline flowing seamlessly. Yvonne truly connected with me early on and felt like family through the entire process, making our special day that much more meaningful. I would highly recommend her to any couple looking for an officiant who will go above and beyond.

I can't recommend him enough. Not only was he extremely flexible and understanding, we could tell how much time he spent preparing for our special day. He tailored our ceremony to highlight our unique circumstances and story, and perfectly executed it to set the exact mood we wanted. During the reception, half of our guests were talking about him instead of us! All in all, an absolute joy to work with.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Tim was an absolutely incredible officiant and you can tell he absolutely loves his job. He makes a point to ask the perfect questions from his couples that will lead to such a beautiful ceremony. Our wedding was in September of 24, and we still get people mentioning how awesome Tim was. I'd totally suggest him to anyone.

He was also incredibly thorough, ensuring we had all the necessary details and paperwork in order. On the day of the wedding, Ernie's excellent and adaptable approach made the ceremony feel warm and personal, yet also polished and organized. He performed a fun but classy wedding ceremony that made everyone feel comfortable. Ernie is highly recommended - he truly feels like family and we are so grateful he was a part of our special day.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

I worked with Carla on two weddings. I enjoyed her easy going professionalism and felt at ease with her and her wedding planning team. They are the best in the DMV and I’m happy that they wanted me to share my skills. She was easy to schedule time with to discuss any questions and share my concerns. I especially liked that she met with me and told me the details of the couple, the layout of the location and where the best vantage points were to ensure that I captured the key moments during the ceremony. She also walked me around the area with the couple so that we could all get to know each other and form a good connection. During the ceremony, she gave good cues that were discreet and helpful to ensure that I was well positioned. Afterwards, she reached out to confirm expected dates and payment for my services.

David was absolutely amazing, and we truly could not have had a better experience. We did not start looking for officiants as early as the other vendors, and I was feeling a bit stressed about it, but David made the process as easy and seamless as possible. He worked with us leading up to the event to make sure that the ceremony felt like us and was happy to make any adjustments we wanted even right up to the event. We really appreciated that we could be as much or little involved in the details of the ceremony as we wanted. The ceremony was beautiful - not only did we think David was amazing, but we got so many compliments from our guests as well (and he also took care of all the paperwork which was very much appreciated so we could focus on all the other important things). We feel so fortunate that we chose to work with David for our wedding - could not recommend him enough.

Our experience with Rev. Dave was honestly a hit from the beginning! His personality is magnetic and you can tell he puts love and intention into the wedding ceremonies that he is a part of. He has different content up his sleeve (you’ll see when you book with him) to truly give you an unforgettable ceremony. Our guests could NOT stop raving about him and all of our guests thought that we had YEARS of personal family connections with him, when in reality we only had a 3-4 planning sessions. One of our close family friends even told my dad that our ceremony was the best ceremony he had ever seen and his daughter just got married (sorry girl!). All i can say is this: when you receive his pricing, DO NOT SKIMP. My (now) husband and i paid for this wedding ourselves, and i do admit that we went with the middle package because of our own hectic schedules and finances, but Rev Dave is WORTH IT ALL. You are (hopefully) only getting married one time, and one of THE best decisions you could make is hiring Rev. Dave!

Matt is my brother and my husband and I chose him to officiate our wedding, not only because he is family, but because we wanted it to feel more personal rather than a generic wedding ceremony speech from the officiant.

His speech was the perfect mix of lighthearted jokes, love, personal stories from our relationship, and information and feelings from my husband and I.

I’ve known Kym for many years, and when the love of my life asked me to marry him, I knew there was only one person for the job! I called Kym right away, and even though I had run away to South Carolina, Kym was happy to take us on. She sent us a questionnaire to get an idea of what kind of ceremony we wanted, and to capture our love story. Kym offers so many different options both religious and non, and she worked so hard to create the perfect ceremony for us. As anyone planning a wedding knows, there is so much that goes into planning, and Kym made everything to do with the ceremony so easy! I’m not religious or traditional in any way, and Kym found us not only the perfect ring vows, but created the perfect ceremony to fit our theme and who we are individually as well as a couple. Kym even helps you if you want to write your own vows! Everyone is still talking about how gorgeous our ceremony was! Thank you Kym for everything, we love and appreciate all of your hard work so much. You helped us create memories that we will never forget! I wish I could give 50 stars for all of your hard work! You absolutely can’t go wrong with picking Fanciful Hearts for your wedding!

We cannot express enough how grateful we are to have had April as our wedding officiant! From our very first conversation, it was clear that she was not just a professional, but someone who genuinely cared about making our day special. Her attention to detail and organization were evident throughout the entire planning process. April was always available for a phone call whenever we had questions or needed guidance, making us feel supported every step of the way. She took the time to ensure that every word spoken during our ceremony was exactly what we wanted, and her thoughtful approach made our vows feel deeply personal and meaningful. On the day of the wedding, April arrived early to coordinate with the other vendors, which helped everything run smoothly. Her expertise and good advice for the flow of the ceremony were invaluable, and it was clear she had everything under control. By the end of the night, April felt like family to us. Her warmth and genuine spirit added so much to our special day. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant who is not only skilled but also truly invested in making your wedding day unforgettable. Thank you, April, for everything! You made our ceremony a beautiful and memorable experience that we will cherish forever.

We absolutely loved working with Kayelily as our wedding officiant! She was kind, attentive, and made the whole process so easy and enjoyable. We actually knew we were in great hands because not only was she recommended by our venue, Highgrove Estate, but she also officiated my sister’s wedding at The Bradford back in December 2018 — such an unexpected and special connection! Our ceremony was everything we hoped for and more. Kayelily shared our love story in a way that was sweet, funny, and perfectly us. It flowed beautifully, had everyone smiling (and tearing up!), and was the perfect length at under 30 minutes. We received so many compliments from guests who said it was one of the best ceremonies they’d ever seen. If you’re looking for an officiant who truly listens and crafts a meaningful, personalized ceremony, Kayelily is it. We can’t recommend her highly enough!

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.
