Norman officiated our Ten Year Vow Renewal, and he is very professional, courteous, and very organized. Norman traveled from New Jersey to Colorado, to officiate and celebrate with us, and exceeded our expectations. He was so prompt in responding to our emails, questions, and gave us some great feedback while planning our ceremony. We received SO many comments on how beautiful our ceremony was, the words were meaningful, and sincere. Thank you, Norman!

Royal Treatment With Tiara NJ Wedding Officiant

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!

Hello and Blessed Be! I'm Angie, a Pagan minister who officiates ceremonies for couples of every background, tradition, and faith. I especially love working with Hindu and multicultural couples, weaving in the rituals, prayers and language that matter to your families, and with LGBTQIA+ couples, who I serve as an queer-owned business myself. Every ceremony I write is custom, never a template, so your day sounds and feels like you. Based in Green Brook, NJ, I travel throughout New Jersey area for elopements, traditional ceremonies, and everything in between.

We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to marry us! Angie was warm and easygoing from our first conversation, which made the whole planning process feel relaxed. She took the time to personalize our ceremony script so it truly felt like us, and she was ready to adapt when winter weather threatened to derail our plans. Even when conditions weren't ideal, she committed to being there for our day. Throughout everything, Angie was helpful and easy to work with, and her flexibility meant we could focus on what mattered instead of stressing about logistics. We're so grateful to have had her be part of our wedding ceremony.

My Grandfather was one of the first people in my life to hand me a microphone, and I have found myself holding one ever since. My name is Kaitlin, and I go by The Resonant Officiant. To “resonate” means to “ produce or be filled with a deep, full, reverberating sound” and my goal is to co-create a ceremony that leaves both the guests and the couple with a sense of connection, hope, and lasting memory. Our ancestors were deeply rooted in ritual practices, and while those exact rituals may not fit quite the same as they once did, they brought people together as a strengthened unit - a sense of belonging all beings deserve to experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
We knew right away that Kaitlin from The Resonant Officiant was the right fit for our ceremony. She responded to every question we had quickly and understood what we needed without us having to explain ourselves over and over. On our wedding day, she was patient with all the photos we took and didn't rush us through a single moment. Kaitlin had also picked a bible verse that was so beautiful and spoke directly to our relationship. Her work was straightforward but powerful, and she brought real heart to our vows. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to marry us.

The quality of her work and the value she provided was truly second to none.

No one wants to sit through a ceremony they've seen a dozen times. That's where we come in. We create ceremonies that are funny, moving, a little unexpected, and completely, unapologetically you — not a template, not a script someone else already used, not boring. We're storytellers. We take everything you share with us — how you met, what makes you laugh, what makes you cry, what drives each other a little crazy — and turn it into something your guests will actually talk about. People have mistaken us for family. That's the goal. Collaborative.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I started wedding planning, searching for an officiant was one of the top most daunting tasks purely because I didn't have any idea where to start. Our parents had gotten married in a church or temple and a lot of other non-denominational weddings we had been to had a friend or family member officiate - not something we were super keen on doing ourselves since we met in a speech and debate club in high school and wanted someone similarly comfortable with public speaking from go. I found Celia Milton via The Knot and I'm so glad I did. She was immediately very responsive to our inquiry and when we had our initial call with her over the phone we knew she would bring the right tone and energy to our ceremony. Celia has years of experience under her belt and it really shows in the ceremony she helped pull together. We had so many guests come up to us after the ceremony to rave about how it was one of the best ceremonies they had been to because it was able to strike so many different tones - funny and lighthearted, emotional and contemplative - in just thirty minutes. On top of that, Celia helped make the script personal to us and our journey together as a couple, which included a traditional handfasting and having our grandparents do guest readings. All in all, the ceremony she gave flowed so well and struck all the beats we wanted it to, which I think made it especially special for both us and our guests. I also want to mention it was so helpful having Celia in our corner given her many years of experience. She just knows weddings and knows a lot of wedding people! She pointed us in the direction of our cinematographer for example and otherwise gave a ton of great advice on other aspects of wedding planning personally over email and via her New Jersey Weddings Podcast which I listened to. That sort of experience really put me at ease that I had somebody to lean back on during wedding planning who has seen it all. Tl;dr - Our wedding ceremony was perfect and it was perfect especially because Celia Milton was our officiant. I cannot recommend her enough for the amount of amazing energy she brought to the planning process and the fact that the final product was just amazing down to the little touches. Thank you Celia!

We focus on a couple-centered approach with custom scripts, while respecting all belief systems. We will create a beautiful ceremony together that truly reflects you as a couple.

Finding the right officiant for our wedding was a journey, especially as an LGBT couple. We wanted someone who truly understood us, not just a random person to perform the ceremony. When we met Carrie, we immediately knew she was the perfect fit! Carrie brought so much joy and thoughtfulness to our special day. Her speech was beautifully crafted, reflecting the essence of our relationship. During our pre-meeting, she really took the time to understand us as individuals and as a couple, ensuring that the ceremony felt personal and meaningful. I also want to mention that my wife and I aren't the best at keeping up with things, but Carrie kept us on track (without making us feel bad lol) and ensured we completed everything necessary for her to do her part. She even came for a rehearsal, making sure we all knew where to be and what to expect. Carrie brought her own personality to the event without overshadowing our special moments. It’s rare for guests to comment on an officiant, but we received so many compliments about Carrie! She truly made our wedding unforgettable. We can’t recommend her enough!

Jimm struck the perfect balance between emotion and light-heartedness—he kept things sincere without being overly serious, and brought a calm, reassuring presence to the day. He was also incredibly professional and organized, helping guide us through the process with clarity and care. If you're looking for someone who will bring warmth, authenticity, and a personal touch to your ceremony, look no further. Jimm is the one!

My purpose as your officiant is to assist you in making your wedding ceremony all you've dreamed of! Your ceremony is personalized for you. We'll discuss your wishes & I'll make suggestions to help put your ceremony together, but ultimately, this is YOUR day, so the ceremony will unfold the way you want. I'm bilingual, in English and Spanish. My goal is for you to have a stress-free ceremony that is uniquely you. I also offer add-on's such as Unity Candle, Jumping the Broom, Wine Box ritual, etc. I am an ordained minister, a hopeful romantic, and I welcome all couples. It would be my honor to be a part of this most special day in your life.

My wife and I could not be any more satisfied with the ceremony performed by Just Married.. by Sarah! From our first message to our first phone call, it was clear that Sarah was the choice for us! She quickly responded to every question we had all throughout our communication. Sarah was right there every step of the way! She was understanding of the small changes that arose throughout the process, and her desire to assure our happiness was clear. Our ceremony came together naturally with a combination of my wife and I's ideas as well as Sarah's experienced recommendations. Her performance of the ceremony was wonderful, which was delivered in both English and Spanish. I cannot recommend Sarah enough! The next couple will not be disappointed by her professionalism, her kind personality and her dedication to assuring that you have the exact ceremony you want! Thank you! Michael and Angela

I am Rabbi Nikki DeBlosi (she/her) (BA, MA, PhD). It is my passion and privilege to connect folks to the breadth and depth of Jewish tradition through inclusive, innovative, and insightful Jewish ritual. A tattooed, polyamorous, queer, suburban, stay-at-home parent, I was raised Catholic and converted to Judaism as an adult. I approach my work nonjudgmentally, and I know too many of us carry religious trauma. I want to make sure your wedding feels meaningful, relevant, and affirming. I'm an avid reader (especially romance), a fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, & a choral singer.

We had the privilege of working with Rabbi Nikki for our interfaith wedding ceremony, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Nikki was organized and thoughtful about helping us structure a ceremony that felt true to both of our backgrounds while remaining accessible to all our guests. What really stood out was how she brought calm to the chaos leading up to the big day—she had prepared for every possible scenario so we felt completely covered no matter what happened. Nikki has a commanding presence and a beautiful voice that kept everyone engaged throughout the ceremony, and she made Judaism come alive for our non-Jewish family members in such a meaningful way that several of them said they only want to attend Jewish weddings from now on. Her collaborative approach meant we were true partners in creating something deeply personalized and insightful that reflected who we are as a couple. We're grateful for her guidance and creativity in making our day unforgettable!

If I don't respond quickly, please reach out to Embodied Union Ceremonies on Facebook. Embodied Union Ceremonies offers wedding and vow renewal ceremonies in New York and Puerto Rico. Led by Jillian Stella — a somatic healing guide with years of training in body-based practice and emotional regulation — every ceremony is designed so couples actually feel it while it's happening. The somatic work and the ceremony are one and the same: you arrive grounded, present, and inside the moment before a single word is spoken.

We can’t recommend Jillian enough as a wedding officiant. From our very first conversation, she was incredibly thoughtful and took the time to truly get to know us as a couple, which meant so much. We chose to do her full Unfurling package, and it was one of the best decisions we made. One aspect that really stood out was the somatic stress release session before the ceremony. It was something we had never even heard of before, but it made all the difference—it helped us feel grounded, present, and deeply connected in a way we didn’t realize we needed going into the ceremony. The ceremony she created was absolutely beautiful—personal, heartfelt, and perfectly reflective of our story. She also integrated somatic elements into the ceremony itself, which made the experience feel even more intentional and special. So many of our guests commented on how meaningful and unique it was. Jillian brought such a calm, warm, and reassuring presence throughout the entire process. She guided us every step of the way and made everything feel easy and stress-free, allowing us to fully be present and enjoy our day. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, professional, and truly amazing at what they do, Jillian is the perfect choice. We feel so lucky to have had her as part of our wedding.

Nivea Officiant

I love working on weddings—a unique moment in couples' lives that I get to be a part of and help immortalize alongside them. Language often becomes a barrier, which is why I offer my services in Portuguese, English, and Spanish.

Nivea was the perfect choice for our wedding officiant. She communicated with us clearly throughout the planning process and created a ceremony that felt truly personal and meaningful to us. On our wedding day, we had a stressful moment when my husband realized he forgot the rings at home, but Nivea didn't hesitate to wait for us to get them. While we were waiting, she sat with me and talked me through my nerves, which helped me calm down so much. Her professionalism and genuine care made all the difference in making our day special. We are so grateful we chose Nivea to officiate our marriage.
