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!

Our officiant was Alex and I couldn’t have chosen a better person to marry us. He made our ceremony very heartfelt yet funny. His energy and liveliness throughout the ceremony kept everyone engaged and laughing. I also loved how responsive and detailed he was with the marriage license process and worked with our photographer to make sure he caught all the best shots during our ceremony.

I'm Rev. Dr. Jeff Saville, (call me Jeff) a retired Navy chaplain with 26 yrs military service and real church pastor (not just ordained online). 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!

Dr. Jeff was such an amazing person to work with. I am all about paying for quality, and I feel like I got what I paid for and more. We initially decided to choose him because of how organized he was, this is something I care deeply about so it was nice to see how dedicated he was to staying organized for his customers. We began with an initial video call to do introductions, and he made the interaction feel like I was talking to a friend. We picked a package where my now husband and I had a mini rehearsal at Dr. Jeff's home in Temecula. This felt so personal and was ultimately super helpful to ensure we knew what to do on the day. We also hired him to do the formal rehearsal at our rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding. Without this, I honestly am not sure how I would have been able to wrangle my wedding party. Dr. Jeff is so knowledgeable and truly thought of everything! He even let us choose the outfit he was going to wear, this is something I didn't even consider, but it was really so cool to be able to choose. The ceremony went so well and everyone thought he did an amazing job. He worked closely with us customize our ceremony and gave us all the tips and tricks to have a beautiful ceremony. Overall, I had an amazing experience with Dr. Jeff. He is by far one of the best wedding choices I made. If you are unsure about spending the money for a quality officiant with a kind heart, I am telling you that you should take the leap. We did and we are so thankful we did!

Hello and congratulations!! I absolutely LOVE officiating weddings! With over 30 years and 2,100 weddings officiated I want to do more. For the last 12 years my fulltime "job" is marrying couples! I feel so honored that I get to do this for a living!!

We were married this past April, and James Simmons really made our special day come together. He was fantastic to work with and just oozes experience and geniality. The resources and guidance he provided was invaluable in helping us put together our plan for the ceremony, and in bringing it to fruition. Communication was always super fast, and any questions or uncertainty we had he cleared up immediately. He’s a genuinely nice person and we got along great with him! We thought he was so funny and very sweet! :) On the day of, he ran the ceremony like an orchestra conductor - and knew when to step out of the way for the photos! Honestly, our ceremony couldn’t have been any better than it was and Rev Simmons was a critical part of that. He had an amazing speaking voice as well, and several guests commented on how well he did. We recommend him to anyone and everyone who is looking for an officiant!

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. ♥

From our first conversation, the team at Blissful & Blessed Unions made us feel at ease and responded to every question we had within hours. They listened closely to what we wanted for our ceremony and then executed our vision perfectly on the day, which meant everything to us. What really stood out was how genuine they were throughout the whole process—they weren't just going through the motions, but actually cared about making our wedding special. They had us laughing during the ceremony itself, which felt so natural and right for who we are as a couple. If you're looking for an officiant who will communicate with you quickly, keep things light, and deliver a ceremony that feels truly personal, we can't recommend Blissful & Blessed Unions highly enough.

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!

Most couples who work with me take their relationship seriously, but don't take themselves too seriously. They're educated, do Wordle, read the NY Times and have a healthy sense of reality. Since 2011, I've been writing and performing personal, meaningful and refreshingly engaging ceremonies. Couples work with me in an easy, collaborative way. I take guest experience and your wishes very seriously. I have the ability to command a room, a writer's knack for shaping a story, an emcee's sense of timing, and experience at the most prestigious venues. My BFA in Acting (Boston University) and MFA in Creative Writing (NYU) serve me well.

Chris was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Not only did he make the entire process smooth, it stimulated discussions about old memories between my husband and I that brought us back 10 years! Luckily, 2 of our best friends had used Chris as their officiant before our wedding 3 years prior and when we got engaged, he was the first vendor to come to our minds! He made us and our guests laugh throughout the ceremony with some quick witted humor, reminded us of what it means to move through this new chapter as a married couple, but also brought such ease on a chaotic day! Our guests were raving about him which just re-iterated that it was our best decision as we planned the wedding. Chris even did a special shoutout to my family out of state who couldn’t make the wedding which made it even more special for us. Hands down, Illuminating Ceremonies with Christopher Shelley will not disappoint.

Hey, I’m Tiara — your modern, non- denominational officiant known for vibrantly authentic ceremonies rooted in heart, humor, and soulful storytelling. I don’t just officiate, I lead. Through story-led ceremony design and a mic-drop delivery, I bring your guests into your love story in a way that feels effortless, elevated, and entirely yours.

One of the best services I've ever hired (and best for this industry!) Tiara is such a wonderful professional that really changed my opinions on such services. Her lavish hospitality for her Royal Treatment will make you feel like you're truly Royalty! (Granted you are of your own life, but this service is top tier!) I was skeptical at first and adding another cost on a wedding can feel overwhelming at times, but I truly felt Royal Treatment with Tiara was worth every penny and more! She took us through a process where she really got to know us as a couple, as individuals, and listened attentively to the details of our wedding vision. We could tell right away that she actually cared and was thankful to be chosen by us and to work together. And as she went through her process... we went through some of our favorite moments, and in some ways, fell in love with our love all over again. During wedding planning that love is surely there as we all know, but Tiara has a gift of bringing us back to the best of us and really getting you into those loving positive feelings. It was really cool! Then with the ceremony and planning phases, Tiara was so knowledgable and resourceful. She really could pick up what we were putting down, having a traditional ceremony with a more spiritual feel. She was also versed in all the religious traditions in our area which was really cool; knowledgable and reliable. She knew what we wanted, which made it easier to plan and talk through as we refined it to our exact wishes. Tiara responded quickly, in detail, and helped resolve any small things we asked her help with. She had a wonderful schedule for us to check in and follow through with that made our day of seamless. Our event coordinators and on site coordinators gave very favorable remarks and loved working with her too. The Royal Treatment was easy to work with other vendors. All with a smile and genuine pleasant attitude. Tiara is a wonderful soul and my wife and I truly am so grateful to her and her services. We weren't quite sure what to expect and thought it would be a pre-scripted thing and "oh this money for that", but once we experienced her as a vendor, we may go as far to say she undercharges! Because it was that meaningful, impactful, and such a joy. My wedding day was the happiest moment of my life and it's partly due to how great the Royal Treatment with Tiara is! We we're not disappointed and 100% would recommend her to anyone who needs an officiant. If you're reading this from another part of the world, I would also recommend flying her out; you're day will be so special if you do and you won't regret it one bit! Thank you so much Tiara, and Royal Treatment for witnessing us Tie Our Knot! May everyone who needs you, find you, and get to lavish in your wonderful experience!

Scott was absolutely amazing! He took the time to really get to know us and personalize our ceremony so it felt perfectly suited to who we are. So many of our guests said it was the best ceremony they have ever attended. He made our day incredibly special with the perfect balance of emotion and humor, and he thoughtfully incorporated beautiful Bible readings from both of my parents, which was very meaningful to us. Scott truly captured our love story and created a ceremony that deeply moved our guests while carefully honoring all of our requests. We can’t say enough wonderful things about him, he was fantastic from start to finish.

Sealed With Grace by Norma J. was the perfect choice for our wedding officiant. From the very first interaction, Norma was wonderful, professional, quick, and efficient in her communication. She walked us through the entire process with patience and empathy, as this was our first time getting married in Texas. Norma was so kind and understanding, making us feel at ease throughout the ceremony. I would highly recommend Sealed With Grace by Norma J. to everyone - she truly helped make our special day perfect!

Officially Oaks is a premier wedding officiant firm serving the great state of Texas across the Austin, San Antonio, Hill Country, and Houston areas. Together with our team of licensed professional officiants, we're dedicated to creating a Ceremony as Extraordinary as Your Love Story.

Luke was absolutely amazing! He was professional, confident, and incredibly composed while officiating our ceremony in front of all of our family and friends. After the ceremony, so many people came up to us saying how wonderful “our friend” did and that it was one of the most beautiful ceremonies they had ever witnessed, which says everything about Luke. I had the chance to meet Luke before my husband could, and he was more than willing to set aside time to meet with the groom before the wedding to ensure everyone felt comfortable and prepared. We also had a few Zoom calls leading up to the big day that truly helped calm our nerves and made us feel completely ready. Luke also helped us step away after the ceremony for a brief, intimate moment to sign our certificate together in person, which meant so much to us. Luke has such a warm, natural presence that everyone genuinely thought we had known him for years. Officially Oaks is hands down the best wedding officiant you could hire. I would recommend Luke to anyone without hesitation!

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.
