Christy Harman Weddings

  • Serves Bowling Green, VA

I have had the honor of being a Civil Celebrant for nearly 5 years! Wow! Hard to believe I have been a part of so many couple’s beginnings! Now, over 325 happy couples! I strive to represent my couples in the best and most positive way. My approach is constantly having the mindset to start my couples off on the right foot. Begin their first day as a married couple with a ceremony that highlights their personalities and their love story. The ceremonies I do are around 18-20 mins in length and they are packed with moments that become outstanding memories. Becoming a Celebrant has been one of my greatest callings and achievements.

Christy Harmon was the wedding coordinator and officiant for my daughter's wedding on September 6, 2025, and she was amazing! Christy's organization, leadership skills, can-do attitude, dedication, energy, and commitment to making the bride's dreams come true showed! Our outdoor wedding plans had to transition to an indoor service when rain moved in unexpectedly and she didn't miss a step. She pivoted and made it happen, and then after sweating for hours setting up, she seamlessly transitioned into the polished officiant as if she'd had all afternoon to relax and get ready. Her wedding program was so special and clearly showed that she got to know the bride and groom and cared about them. She worked tirelessly during the reception ensuring that everything was done exactly as the bride had planned and conducted all the vendors adeptly. She was amazing, and we are forever grateful. She is truly gifted at what she does. What could have been a disappointing day was magical in every way, and Christy is the reason.

Gemma was absolutely wonderful to work with as our wedding officiant! From the very beginning, she was so attentive to my wishes and made sure every detail felt personal and meaningful. She really took the time to understand what we wanted, and that care showed through in every part of the ceremony…even down to getting it finished and us pronounced right at 11:11! I think we had 30 seconds to go but she did her best to listen to my wishes! It was such a bonus that she also did photos for us—she captured beautiful moments that we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for someone warm, professional, and truly invested in making your day special, I highly recommend Gemma!

Hi, I’m Carla, a legally authorized wedding officiant based in the Washington D.C. area. I’m all about creating moments that feel genuine and joyful. While I primarily serve the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia, I’m always up for an adventure. I’m passport ready and happy to travel wherever love takes you. For couples coming from out of town, I can help set up your elopement, connect you with trusted local vendors, and guide you through the marriage license process so everything feels smooth and stress-free.

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.
