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. ♥

Awarded Best of Zola
Yvonne officiated our wedding a month ago and we couldn’t have been happier! We felt an instant connection from our first meeting and she made us feel at ease during every call. We really appreciate that she took the time to learn about our love story and provided a customized ceremony, in English and Spanish! She also checked in post wedding day and sent reminders regarding the marriage license. All in all, we highly recommend booking her as your officiant!

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 is the BEST we could have hired for our ceremony. He is so personable and professional and truly made our ceremony feel so special and unique to us—we even had guests asking how we knew him, or if he was a family member or old friend. He puts in the effort to learn about us as individuals and as a couple and crafts a ceremony that is specifically tailored to our love story. We laughed and cried and everything in between—it was so special. Our ceremony was our absolute favorite part of our day and we have Tim to thank for that. 11/10 recommend.

We had an intimate elopement on March 6th with just me, my husband, our dog, a photographer, and Evan as our officiant. Evan made the entire process completely seamless. He is a great communicator from the start and asked thoughtful, detailed questions to personalize our ceremony. He also provided great vendor recommendations. I ended up using one of his suggested photographers, which made everything even easier. On the day, Evan was professional, engaging, and created a beautiful, meaningful ceremony just for us.

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.

We never had a rehearsal and there was some last-minute logistics to plan on the wedding day but by the end of it, everything ran smoothly.

Mr Lang was the leader and voice of our whole ceremony. His voice was loud, clear, and powerful. His loud, powerful voice commanded a presence throughout the whole ceremony. Before our ceremony we were able to meet with Mr Lang as well to go over options on how we could go about our ceremony. He also sent us the versions we went over to make any changes we wanted to. He was extremely easy to work with and also helped us through the whole process. Throughout our process leading up to the wedding there were some unforeseen circumstances that caused some changes the day before. Even with this happening Mr Lang was able to change everything up and even some decisions being made the day off and everything went on without any issues.

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!

Jeff can be described in one word. Outstanding! We originally went with Jeff since he is a retired Navy Chaplain, as a Marine that was an instant pro fro me but he also; helped and made the process of planning the wedding from the opposite of the country easy with video calls, while still making time to meet us prior to the wedding to get face to face time as well as run a walk through of our wedding day. He was also able to do a good portion of the ceremony in Spanish to help my in-laws understand what was happening and make them included in the ceremony. He helped us plan out for amazing pictures of the ceremony down to what he would wear. He coached up the bridal party on their roll in the ceremony so everything went smooth. The only negative thing I can say about Jeff is; well I didn't get to spend more time with him! He is amazing and funny and I genuinely cannot recommend him enough. If you're looking to add the perfect Pastor/Officiant for your perfect day Jeff is an easy inclusion.

I've known Kim for a long time. I saw when her business started and how it's grown into something so beautiful that has blossomed and helps people. She puts her heart and professionalism into every ceremony she performs. No two ceremonies are alike because the couples and their stories are different and personal to them. My husband and I were Kim's 100th couple that she married. It's so amazing that she's almost married 250 couples by now!!! We were so happy and honored to have her write and lead our ceremony. Our ceremony was very intimate with my husband, myself, our young children, and Kim. This was the second marriage for the both of us. It was in a private and beautiful place that we chose that was special to us and our story. Kim met us there. Kim gets to know the couple getting married, the story of how they met, and what they want to include in their ceremony. If you need help with ideas she has a wealth of resources to help you get exactly what you want for your most special day. She's led many little and big ceremonies. We're so thankful for Kim and Fanciful Hearts Wedding Ceremonies. We wouldn't have wanted anyone else to marry us. We highly recommend them. Thank 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 made our Nigerian elopement unforgettable. She took the time to understand our story and honored the memories of my late father and grandmother so beautifully. Her words were comforting, powerful, and meaningful. From our very first conversation she listened, really listened, to the details about how my husband and I met, the values we wanted to hold in our marriage, and the elements we hoped to include in the ceremony. I love how she even incorporated details that reflected my husband’s Nigerian roots. I’ve been to many weddings before, which are often long, drawn out, and not truly about the couple as they all tend to sound the same, but this ceremony was different. It was personal, heartfelt, and rich with the traditional elements of marriage. Emerald was very friendly, professional, and genuine throughout the entire process. I would gladly recommend her to anyone who wants a ceremony filled with meaning and authenticity.

Koru did and AMAZING job at putting together our ceremony! Our guests could not stop raving about how personalized and special the ceremony was. It was truly memorable. Deciding on an officiant was one of our tougher decisions for us during wedding planning. We went back and forth on asking a friend vs hiring a vendor. Pat was so personable and bubbly during our first meet, my husband and I knew the second we hung up on the Zoom meeting that we were going to hire her. Pat was so easygoing and responsive to questions/changes we made throughout the process. She was also a large help during our rehearsal and had a ton of great tips for the wedding party. Hiring Koru was one of the best decision we made for our wedding day.

We loved working with Sandy! From our initial phone call we knew she would be the one to perform our ceremony. She is professional through and through, AND has a warm and friendly personality perfect for getting to know us as the couple. Our favorite part was how she included our friends and family into our ceremony and it was such a personalized ceremony. She did an amazing job up there and was a calming presence for us. Sandy really guided us through the whole thing from beginning to end. She was invaluable to us and we had such an amazing time working with her!! Would recommend 1000/10!!

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.
