My journey began when my son asked me to officiate his wedding. What started as a special moment between a mother and her son quickly became something much more. That experience ignited a passion within me and helped me discover what I truly believe is my calling. Officiating and planning weddings isn't just about the ceremony itself. It's about helping couples express their love and commitment in a way that feels genuine, meaningful, and uniquely their own. Every couple has a different story, and I believe every wedding should reflect the personalities, values, and dreams of the two people standing at the altar.

Gina Hawthorne of Weddings by Gina Hawthorne was an amazing officiant for our wedding. She is an honest, great communicator, and very personable. Gina arrived early for our Sunday ceremony, which we really appreciated. She was professional throughout the entire process and made us feel comfortable. Gina's fee is very reasonable compared to other officiants, and we feel we got great value for the money. If you are looking for an officiant who will make your special day memorable, I highly recommend Gina Hawthorne. I will be sure to refer her to any of our friends or family who need someone to marry them.

Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 
Rating: 5.0 (85 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150
  • Serves Cortland, OH

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!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Timothy officiate our wedding on May 17th, and we truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. From the very beginning, he was kind, professional, and incredibly helpful. He guided us through every step, helped calm our nerves on the big day, and brought such a warm and personal touch to our ceremony. Timothy made our guests laugh, brought a few happy tears, and somehow made it feel like he had known us forever. So many of our friends and family told us how amazing he was! If you’re looking for someone who will make your ceremony meaningful, personal, and full of heart—Timothy is the one. We are forever grateful!

When we began planning our wedding, we thought it would be nearly impossible to create a ceremony that would make everyone happy. My husband and I come from very different religious backgrounds, and we truly had no idea where to start. Left to our own devices, we probably would have just gone to the courthouse, but we knew our families (especially mine) hoped for something much more traditional. I was so pleasantly surprised to find Your Wedding Officiant and learn that we could build a ceremony from scratch- one that honored tradition while still feeling true to us. We worked closely with Reverend Dennis, who guided us every step of the way. He was incredibly kind, communicative, flexible, and such a pleasure to work with. Thanks to him, we were able to create a beautiful ceremony that thoughtfully blended our families’ values with our own preferences. I can’t overstate how meaningful it was to have so much control and customization without sacrificing reverence or structure. I would recommend Your Wedding Officiant to absolutely anyone. We are so grateful to Reverend Dennis and the team for helping make our day unforgettable.

Working with Love & Laughter Weddings for our small wedding in Carmel by the Sea was one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire planning process. We booked their Event Management package with officiant and Design add on for our wedding weekend and I genuinely can’t imagine our wedding without Evelyn and her team. From the moment we met, Evelyn was such a calming, reassuring, and positive presence. Wedding planning felt overwhelming at times, but she always made us feel grounded and supported in our check in meetings. No matter what came up, she handled everything with kindness, confidence and such a peaceful energy. Having someone like that in your corner truly makes all the difference. I shared my Pinterest inspiration and some ideas I’d seen online with her and somehow she brought everything to life even better than I could’ve imagined. Every detail was intentional and very “Us.” The entire weekend flowed so easily and I was able to be present in the moment and enjoy the time with our family and friends instead of stressing. The whole Love & Laughter team was amazing to work with and made our wedding feel effortless and beautiful. I highly recommend them for any couple looking for a team that is not only incredibly talented but also genuinely caring and supportive throughout the process.

Erie Wedding Officiants, a local business in Erie, Pennsylvania, emerged in 2012 from the vision of its founder, Steve.

They now serve couples throughout the Erie area and surrounding regions like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Buffalo. Offering everything from religious to nonreligious ceremonies, they work closely with each couple to create a unique and memorable wedding day.

Choosing the right person to officiate our wedding was one of the most important decisions we made, and we can't express how grateful we are to have found Steve from Erie Wedding Officiants. From our very first meeting, we knew we were in good hands. He listened to our story with genuine interest, asked thoughtful questions about our relationship, and immediately made us feel comfortable. The ceremony itself was nothing short of perfect. Steve created a script that was so personal and heartfelt. He seamlessly blended humor and sincerity, keeping our guests engaged and making everyone feel a part of the moment. We received so many compliments afterward about how unique and touching our ceremony was. Beyond the beautiful words, his professionalism was outstanding. He handled all of the legal paperwork with ease, arrived early to our rehearsal and the wedding day, and had a calm, reassuring presence that helped put our nerves at ease. We weren't just hiring someone to perform a service; we were collaborating with someone who cared about making our day special. We highly recommend Steve or any of the officiants from Erie Wedding Officiants to any couple looking for someone who will not only marry them but will also craft a meaningful, unforgettable ceremony that reflects who they are.

Karen also gave us samples of different vow styles and ring exchanges so we could build the perfect ceremony for us.

As a wedding DJ, I work with a lot of different officiants and I can say that Minister Sharnise Sears is one of the best in the business! Sharnise is able to work with couples ahead of time to help them better prepare for such an important life step like marriage. She takes the time to really get to know her couples. Other wedding vendors, like me, love working with Sharnise too. On wedding day, Minister Sharnise is there promptly with a gracious attitude and a smile that lights up the room and puts everyone as ease. She officiates ceremonies for couples that are so meaningful and personal! Sharnise speaks clearly so everyone can hear what is being said. She is professional, yet fun!
