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 listened intently as we shared our love story, and she beautifully wove it into a one-of-a-kind ceremony that left our guests feeling so connected to us. We are endlessly grateful to Yvonne - Blissful & Blessed Unions for making our special day even more meaningful and unforgettable. Truly, Yvonne, from the bottom of our heart- thank you!

Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 
Rating: 5.0 (61 reviews)
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 amazing to work with from start to finish! From our initial phone call with Tim, we knew right away that we wanted him to be a part of our big day. He is a true professional and really took the time to learn details about us as a couple in order to curate the perfect ceremony. We couldn’t have been happier with how it turned out! We also had sort of a unique request and needed a non-family member/friend to deliver one of our rehearsal dinner speeches. Tim, without question, gave up an extra hour of his Friday evening to deliver the speech for us and we couldn’t have been more grateful! I would absolutely recommend Tim to any couples looking for a professional, reliable, and personable wedding officiant!

The Officiant Jawn was AMAZING. Our ceremony wouldn’t have been the same without her. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was so organized and attentive making sure we knew everything that would go on throughout the day which was such a relief. From the communication early on all the way until the day of, to checking on my wife for me when I thought she was freaking out beforehand, to reassuring me that she was fine and more. She helped calm my own nerves and honestly I felt like I just had another supportive family member by my side. Our ceremony was soooo amazing and she made us and our guests laugh. She’s hilarious! Everyone at our wedding was also complimenting our officiant and said how awesome she was and how they wanted to be friends with her! They were so impressed with her energy, as were we. I’m soooo glad she joined us for our big day! Like I said I cannot IMAGINE having anyone else there! We asked for an officiant for a day, but got a friend for life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having Evan officiate our wedding was one of the BEST decisions that we made during the wedding planning process. Conor and I settled on the Gold Wedding Service which included a fully customized ceremony that absolutely exceeded our and our guests expectations. Several guests asked if he was a personal friend of ours and almost EVERYONE we talked to commented on how our ceremony was beautiful, thoughtful, and personalized. We even had a few comments saying it was one of the best, most engaging ceremonies they have witnessed. From the moment we first met with Evan, he was incredibly professional and very clear that he was there for us, to help us plan the ceremony of our dreams. Meeting with him helped us remember that while all the details of a wedding are important, it is a day to celebrate our unique love story and lifelong commitment to each other. He was an incredibly grounding presence during the last weeks of planning (chaos), especially during the ceremony rehearsal. His years of experience were evident and helped us and our family to feel as prepared as anyone can be for one of the biggest moments of our lives. Additionally, he helped us, our maid of honor, and best man execute an absolutely FLAWLESS handfasting ceremony while reciting our vows. This was a dream come true for us and it was a highlight for us and our guests. We cannot say enough wonderful things about Evan. Our wedding ceremony will forever be one of the best moments of our lives. Absolutely outstanding. Thank you, Evan!

Miri was the perfect wedding officiant for our special day. From the very beginning, Miri's communication style was prompt, thoughtful, and reassuring. She met with us several months before the wedding to learn about us and what we were looking for in our ceremony. Miri then crafted a personalized first draft with lots of wording options for us to choose from, and she carefully pieced together our thoughts to make the ceremony bespoke and meaningful. Miri's work was truly exceptional - she was caring, kind, creative, passionate, and enthusiastic throughout the entire process. We loved the idea of including a peony watering as a symbol of our love, and Miri was so excited to incorporate that element, even selecting an amazing poem to accompany it. Additionally, Miri helped us with our vows and provided thoughtful suggestions - I felt so much more at ease reading my vows for all to hear because of Miri's feedback and support! Miri also met with us for the ceremony rehearsal, ensuring we felt prepared and confident for the big day. We are so grateful to Miri for making our wedding ceremony so memorable and special.

Alex officiated our wedding and completely exceeded every expectation we had. He crafted a bilingual ceremony in English and Spanish that wasn't just translated—it was genuinely written in both languages, using each for what it expresses best. It was beautiful for our English-speaking guests and meaningful in an entirely different way for our Spanish-speaking family and friends. His entire approach was romantic, personal, and our guests were blown away. He kept the focus entirely on love and on us as a couple, creating a ceremony that was inclusive and joyful without ever losing sight of what the day was really about. As two grooms, it meant everything to have someone who honored our relationship with such care and intention. I've been to a lot of weddings. I have never heard so many guests spontaneously rave about an officiant the way they did about Alex. Weeks later, people are still bringing it up. He is the real deal.

I can lead a highly customized & personalized wedding ceremony at a winery, golf club, beach, on a military base or in a hot air balloon! Or if you just need to be quickly/legally married very inexpensively, I do that too! When you contact me you will quickly receive detailed info, a sample but customizable ceremony, and offer times for a free consultation by videocall to answer questions about levels of service (Gold/Silver/Bronze), the fees, OPTIONAL Premarital Counseling and more!

Without a doubt, Jeff was the best investment we made for our wedding and for our marriage. With Jeff we invested in our marriage with his premarital coaching. Wedding planning can be stressful, and this coaching and relationship homework kept our minds on what was truly important. We met regularly with Jeff via video calls, and he graciously welcomed us into his home for our first coaching session and later for a ceremony rehearsal. The mini-rehearsal was incredibly helpful! He even taught us “the dip” at the end of the aisle, which we practiced together leading up to our big day. On the wedding day, Jeff arrived early, dressed to impress in an outfit of our choosing, and led the most beautiful ceremony. Multiple guests told us it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever witnessed. Personally, I felt an overwhelming sense of calm and joy on the morning of our wedding—something I truly believe was made possible by Jeff’s preparation, guidance, and genuine care. We are forever grateful.

She was thoughtful and helpful throughout the entire process, from the "homework" she assigned us before the wedding to the ceremony itself. Jane made our special day even more memorable, and we are forever grateful. The guests at our wedding were impressed by the unique and warm ceremony she led. Jane has the experience and warmth you'd expect from a wedding officiant, and so much more. We felt taken care of every step of the way, and would highly recommend Jane's Personalized Weddings to any couple looking for an officiant who will make their wedding day truly special.

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!

Emerald Elegance Ceremonies

PHILADELPHIA, PA
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $400

I became a wedding officiant in 2023 because I believe ceremonies should be anything but boring. This is the moment two people declare their love, it should be heartfelt, engaging, and unapologetically YOU. My ceremonies are so personal and memorable that guests often ask, “How long have you known Emerald?” From emotional vows to inside jokes, first-date stories, flower-grandmas, and even that one uncle’s pill alarm going off mid-ceremony, we’ll work together to and make sure your ceremony is one of the most memorable parts of your big day!

Emerald was absolutely amazing for our wedding. Not only did she make our vision of a perfect ceremony come true, she added to it, making our special day a dream! The customization of our ceremony and the attention to detail was truly special. Including our guests in the ceremony and the annunciation of every word, with not one mishap, was truly appreciated. Most of all her communication was excellent and she treated us like family--caring for our personal mental space (outside of the ceremony). Her professionalism is top tier. Emerald worked at the highest level, and if I didnt plan to be married only this one time, I'd I'd use her again!

We can’t say enough good things about Pat! She was absolutely amazing to work with. From the very beginning, she guided us through every step — from getting our marriage license, to meeting with us to get to know our story, to helping us craft a ceremony that felt so personal and true to us. She made the whole process easy and enjoyable, answering all our questions and giving us the freedom to really make the ceremony our own. She even reviewed our vows and was there if we needed any help or feedback. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and heartfelt our ceremony was, several people told us it was the most personal and meaningful ceremony they’d ever attended, and we owe that to Pat. She did an incredible job and we couldn’t recommend her more highly!

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.
