Great experience with Evan and his team. Easy to get in touch and Evan walked me through how to serve our guests in a way that made sense. We planned to do two signature cocktails, and then a selection of beer and wine, which was recommended by Evan and it worked out perfectly. As the bride, I was always here or there mingling with family as much as I could, and I trusted Evan and his team to take care of our guests, and they definitely delivered. Really happy with how easy he made the planning!

Hi! I’m Danny! A wedding officiant who believes your ceremony should be the heart of your wedding day — personal, joyful, and true to your love story. Whether you’re dreaming of a meaningful, story-driven ceremony, something short & sweet, or a little in between — I’m here to guide you, support you, and create a ceremony you’ll remember forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
I found Danny on Instagram while watching a clip of him officiating another wedding. I started scrolling through his page and was instantly drawn in. His feed was full of funny and relatable memes, like making sure to run out of the way for the first kiss photo, and that your guests should enjoy your wedding verses preparing for it. It was clear from his posts that he’s interactive with couples and tailors each ceremony to their unique style. Danny was the perfect fit for our October 11th wedding. Most of our guests were from Chicago and spoke only English, while some of our family members spoke only Spanish. As the bride, I speak only English, so I asked Danny if he could do the ceremony mostly in English & simply add a "splash" of Spanish to make everyone feel included. He didn’t hesitate, he made it happen beautifully. From the moment I reached out, Danny made me feel comfortable. He ensured my fiancé was on board, explained the entire process clearly, and took the time to learn about our love story. He even asked if we wanted specific Bible scriptures, and had some beautiful ones ready in case we didn’t. Danny took all the guesswork out of planning the ceremony. On the day of, he came fully prepared and delivered a flawless experience. At one point, we thought it might rain and had to consider switching to a shorter 10-minute version of the ceremony (originally planned for 30 minutes). Danny reassured us it would be no problem. Thankfully, the weather held up but his flexibility and professionalism were so appreciated. Danny, thank you for making our day so special!

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. ♥

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!

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.

This review is long overdue! My husband and I had the wonderful Tiara officiate our wedding 04/20/2023, and she helped make our experience so enjoyable! Not only was she professional, but also compassionate, personable, and helped us with our vows when we were both too overwhelmed to speak. She gave our guests a beautiful explanation of our love for each other, and included a “couple therapy-esque” meeting to get to know us before the wedding, and ended in me having happy tears expressing my love towards my husband during such a stressful time. She gets a 10 out of 10 from us! Make sure you book her for your upcoming wedding!

Hitched! By Harper is where unforgettable ceremonies meet authentic storytelling. I’m a firefighter-turned-award-winning officiant who crafts one-of-a-kind wedding experiences rooted in joy, meaning, and a touch of humor. Since 2010, I’ve helped couples of all backgrounds feel seen, celebrated, and totally at ease on their big day. Every ceremony is written from scratch to reflect your vibe, your values, and your story—not a template in sight.

My fiancé and I had Kevin officiate our wedding in August of 2025, and it was one of the best wedding decisions we made in the whole process! We were struggling on who we wanted to officiate our non-denominational ceremony, and with one month until our wedding day we found multiple recommendations for Hitched by Harper. The process was so easy, and for not knowing him personally, we had no less than 10 people on our wedding day asking something to the affect of “the officiant was amazing and personable, how did you know each other” and we actually had a friend book him for a wedding shortly after! Kevin was beyond impressive and we would recommend him and his services to anyone! If I could give this more than 5 stars I would.

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.

He tailored our ceremony to highlight our unique circumstances and story, and perfectly executed it to set the exact mood we wanted.

Your ceremony is more than a ho-hum prelude to a rocking party---it should be joyous (or hilarious!) telling of your story, a love story that gives your guests a reason to celebrate! It should be a well-thought out reflection of your values, what love and marriage mean to you. I am thoughtful, warm, intentional, and genuine in my approach---I see my role as a friendly guide to help you figure out what your options are, shower you with resources, and help you navigate the sometimes tricky waters surrounding weddings. I'll walk you through the creation process, tell your story, and perform you ceremony with warmth and joy!

Katrina is an absolute wizard of words, the most compassionate soul, and someone who makes your special moments in life a million times more special with her magic touch! Katrina left such a lasting impact on us after creating a dream wedding ceremony that we have connected with her throughout the past ten years for other ceremonies as well, like a ‘welcome to the world’ ceremony for our firstborn, an intimate vow renewal, and I know we will continue to have her in our lives for many more celebrations! Katrina has the ability to take all of our messy thoughts and feelings and put them into the most beautiful, meaningful words that resonate with not only us but anyone who hears the words for years to come! I always leave our meetings thinking “It’s like she is in our heads! She just gets it!” She takes the time to really get to know you and adds such special intimate touches to the ceremonies that make you feel even closer in your relationship.

Throughout his 18 years in the industry, and having performed over 3,000 weddings, it’s easy to see why he’s been featured in bridal magazines, national IG posts, and been featured in Huffington Post twice, and on realty TV. Add to that the dozens of national awards he’s won over the years, and you can tell why he’s in demand as a wedding officiant.

We hired EC Matrimony for our wedding, and Ernie was our officiant. He was absolutely wonderful. If I had to do the day all over again, I would hire him without hesitation. Ernie was on time, professional, calm, and a huge help throughout the entire process. From the start, he made everything feel seamless and easy, which took so much stress off of us during wedding planning.

After you answer the questionnaires, she will send you a copy to review and make any edits.

Alisha was amazing! She made everything super easy and really took the time to get to know us. The ceremony felt so personal and natural, not stiff at all. On the day of, she was calm, organized, and just good energy all around. It honestly felt like having a friend marry us. We’re so glad we chose her!

Vanessa officiated our wedding, and she was absolutely amazing! She created a personalized ceremony script, welcomed our opinions, and made any adjustments we wanted without hesitation. She made the entire process so easy and stress-free, and even took the time to schedule a phone call with us beforehand to make sure everything was exactly how we envisioned it. On our wedding day, everything went perfectly. We are so grateful for her professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. We highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for an officiant who truly cares about making your ceremony special.

At Wed By Norm, I design wedding ceremonies that feel powerful, personal, and unforgettable. I’m Norman I. Graham, a professional wedding officiant trusted by couples across NY, NJ, CT, PA, RI, and destination locations who want their ceremony to be the moment everyone remembers. My signature strength is transforming your love story into a ceremony that feels authentic, intentional, and emotionally resonant for both you and the people who came to celebrate you. My role is to listen carefully, understand what matters most to you, and craft a ceremony that reflects your values, culture, humor, and connection.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't have asked for a better officiant than Norm. From our first conversation, his communication was straightforward and he really listened to what we wanted for our ceremony. Norm took the time to learn our story and wove it throughout the entire service, making everything feel deeply personal and meaningful to us. He was incredibly supportive throughout the planning process and went out of his way to ensure I had everything I needed leading up to the big day. His knowledge and care made the ceremony feel less like a formality and more like a true reflection of our love. We can't recommend Norm highly enough.

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.
