Mesquite, TX

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. ♥

Blissful & Blessed Unions (Yvonne) was the perfect choice for our wedding officiant. From the moment we met Yvonne, we could tell she was truly caring, passionate and devoted to helping us celebrate our love. Her communication style put us at ease throughout the entire process, and her delivery of our personalized ceremony was outstanding, incredible, and beyond amazing. Yvonne listened intently as we shared our love story, and she beautifully wove it into a one-of-a-kind ceremony that left our guests feeling so connected to us. We are endlessly grateful to Yvonne - Blissful & Blessed Unions for making our special day even more meaningful and unforgettable. Truly, Yvonne, from the bottom of our heart- thank you! You made our day special that we will cherish forever.

He is a true professional and clearly an expert at his craft, skillfully capturing our love story through thoughtful, creative, and engaging storytelling. He took the time to get to know us and what makes us unique to build the perfect flow for our ceremony. It was my favorite part of the wedding! Even on a very hot day, he kept our guests entertained and upbeat, there was both continuous laughter and happy tears throughout the ceremony. The perfect balance and tone for us! Many guests commented to us that they typically don't enjoy wedding ceremonies, but ours was highly entertaining and heartfelt.

Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 

5.0

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!

Like any great love story! The moment I found Tim’s website, I knew he was the one! The last line of my vows was “Till your unsolvable murder do us part”. Not just any man is up for that job. I knew he would see the humor of it. What I didn’t know was how amazing of a person he really is. The poem he read. Was so spot on for us! We settled who would read their vows first over a game of rock, paper, scissors. We laughed so much. He truly made the ceremony so memorable! I highly recommend Tim!

Thinking about having your good friend officiate your big day for you, but unsure of how they will do? Well what if your good friend was a professional with over 2,300 weddings under their belt? That's the best way to describe what we shoot for at MBE ... being the good friend that definitely knows what to do when the moment counts! Whether you plan to have an intimate elopement ceremony or if you've been working on your dream wedding for months, we'd love to help you make your day one to truly remember. Our goals are to help you decide exactly what you want to do on your big day and to do everything we can to make it come to life!

One of the most complimented parts of our entire wedding day was our ceremony, and that’s all thanks to our incredible officiant, Evan. From the beginning, we knew we wanted a ceremony that felt meaningful and personal, and Evan delivered that and so much more. He met with us ahead of time, walked us through everything, and really took the time to understand our story. When the big day came, he absolutely nailed it. He shared our love story in such a heartfelt and light-hearted way, beautifully weaving in some of my favorite scripture. There was laughter, happy tears, and so much joy…he truly set the tone for the rest of the day, and helped calm my nerves more than he probably realized. To top it all off, Evan is a true jack of all trades, his company also offers bartending services! Right after the ceremony, he jumped behind the bar and kept the good vibes going. So many of our guests told us how much they enjoyed chatting with him and how great the service was. If you're looking for someone who can do it all,and do it with heart….Evan is your guy.

I thoroughly enjoy meeting new couples, and I make every effort to perform the ceremony to your expectations. It is an honor to perform weddings, and I look forward to working with you. I have been performing weddings since 2017- check out my website for more reviews! I have performed over 300 weddings, vow renewals, and commitment ceremonies (traditional and same sex). I'm ordained solely to perform weddings; Christian, non-denominational, secular, and judgment-free. I am an active member of a local church community. I'm also a notary (Florida) if you prefer secular certification.

Weddings by Ms. Ellie was an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication was great - they were polite, responsive, and any questions we had were easy to answer. When it came to the quality of their work and the value they provided, they 100% nailed it!! They sent us a questionnaire ahead of time that we filled out, and Ms. Ellie incorporated all of that personal information and key details about our lives seamlessly into the opening remarks of the ceremony. She really took the time to make our special day feel truly unique and personal. If I could give them 10 stars, I absolutely would. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to make our wedding day so special.

Troy, NY

I take pride in the fact that I’m a connector and listener. I love getting to know people and learning and helping to share their stories. And I’m happiest when I’m able to help people take those stories and turn them into something meaningful, whether it’s a wedding ceremony or a marriage proposal or whatever milestone you’re holding space for. Through thoughtful questions and deep conversations, we'll collaborate on crafting your one-of-a-kind ceremony.

When we were planning our wedding we originally thought of just asking a friend to marry us. But after learning more about what a good officiant can offer we were incredibly happy to have changed plans and gone with Miriam! Miriam perfectly balanced being both professional and also getting to know us as a couple and individuals. She was very friendly and always a joy to talk to in our calls. The ceremony itself was not something we had given a ton of thought to, and weren’t sure exactly what we wanted outside of having a few concepts (short, secular, not too serious). Miriam was able to offer us advice, recommendations, and guidance throughout the process as we created our ceremony. From sending us examples of readings that fit our vibe, to explaining different unity ceremony ideas and helping us come up with one that fit us, Miriam made what could have been a stressful planning experience into a breeze. Miriam separately reviewed both our private and public vows, gave us feedback to make sure both our tones were the same, and took care of dropping off the paperwork to make the marriage official. We knew we picked the right person when our friends asked us afterwards how long we had to look to find an officiant with the same sense of humor as us. We would absolutely recommend Miriam to anyone asking!

Hi, I’m Carla, a legally authorized wedding officiant based in the Washington D.C. area. I’m all about creating moments that feel genuine and joyful. While I primarily serve the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia, I’m always up for an adventure. I’m passport ready and happy to travel wherever love takes you. For couples coming from out of town, I can help set up your elopement, connect you with trusted local vendors, and guide you through the marriage license process so everything feels smooth and stress-free.

I worked with Carla on two weddings. I enjoyed her easy going professionalism and felt at ease with her and her wedding planning team. They are the best in the DMV and I’m happy that they wanted me to share my skills. She was easy to schedule time with to discuss any questions and share my concerns. I especially liked that she met with me and told me the details of the couple, the layout of the location and where the best vantage points were to ensure that I captured the key moments during the ceremony. She also walked me around the area with the couple so that we could all get to know each other and form a good connection. During the ceremony, she gave good cues that were discreet and helpful to ensure that I was well positioned. Afterwards, she reached out to confirm expected dates and payment for my services.

Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life, and I’m here to help make it UNFORGETTABLE! I specialize in personalized ceremonies that reflect who you are as a couple—whether lighthearted and fun or deeply heartfelt. Serving couples across Chicagoland, I’m passionate about making your ceremony the highlight of your big day—for you and your guests.

Let’s create a ceremony your guests won’t stop talking about!

Rev. Dave has such a great, social personality that we appreciated having for our ceremony. He finds ways to involve the guests in the ceremony, cracks jokes, tell our story, and make it such a meaningful ceremony for us and guests alike. There were a lot of tears shed during the ceremony (and not just from those of us up at the front). We had many of our guests tell us how great he was afterwards. Rev. Dave puts in a lot of care to making the ceremony special, including lots of time dedicated to the couple to learn more about them as well as running the rehearsal, making sure everyone does a great job for the day of.

Why settle for the same clichéd, predictable service everyone else uses? You're unique, and your wedding should be, too. I'll work with you to design the perfect ceremony to match your own individual style and personality.

The comfort and ease that Dave brought to the wedding with his reassuring, “I’ve got this, whatever you want, it’s your wedding” attitude was exactly what an anxious bride needed. We are not a religious couple, nor are we especially romantic, but we still wanted a traditional, classic ceremony. That balance was perfectly achieved because Dave actively listens to his clients and offers a variety of unique options. I cannot overstate how much overthinking and stressing I did about every other aspect of the wedding, but I was so relaxed and confident that the ceremony would be perfect, and I was right. Over a year later my husband and I still talk about how the ceremony was the best part of the night. If you’re looking for an officiant who will come to you with an open mind, no judgement, and genuine care, there is no better person than David Lang.

Rev. Phil is a full-time wedding officiant. He is real minister (with a Master of Divinity degree). He has been married to Pam for 41 years. He enjoys watching movies (tries to see all the Oscar nominees), reading newspapers on his iPad, the Bears, summer concerts at the Chicago Botanic Garden and wine. He and his wife love to chat, listen to music and drink wine in front of their fireplace or in the backyard, depending on the season.

We can’t say enough amazing things about Phil Landers. From the start, he was professional, warm, and incredibly thorough. His planning process was smooth and efficient, and it was obvious why all his reviews were so outstanding—he lives up to every word of praise and then some. What truly sets Phil apart is the personal touch he brings. He didn’t just perform a ceremony; he told our story in a way that made everyone laugh, cry, and feel connected. And then—he did something no one expected. Phil included a one-of-a-kind element in the ceremony that none of our guests had ever seen before. It was creative, heartfelt, and incredibly moving. People are still talking about it, and honestly, so are we. He has a gift for making the ceremony feel intimate and meaningful, without ever being overly formal or generic. It felt like us—which is exactly what we hoped for. Choosing Phil was one of the best decisions we made in the entire wedding planning process. He exceeded every expectation and gave us a ceremony we will never forget. If you're looking for an officiant who brings something truly special to the table, Phil Landers is the one.

His speech was the perfect mix of lighthearted jokes, love, personal stories from our relationship, and information and feelings from my husband and I.

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.

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.

The Resonant Officiant was the perfect choice for our wedding ceremony. Kait, our officiant, was open, warm, and friendly throughout our entire interaction. She took the time to really listen to us and understand the vision we had for our special day. Kait was incredibly detail-oriented, crafting a truly extraordinary ceremony that felt so personal and meaningful. We were blown away by her thoughtfulness and how trustworthy she was in guiding us through the process. Kait's words had such an impact, and we will always cherish the special details she included that made our ceremony so memorable. We highly recommend The Resonant Officiant to any couple looking for an officiant who will make your wedding day unforgettable.

Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and heartfelt our ceremony was, several people told us it was the most personal and meaningful ceremony they’d ever attended, and we owe that to Pat. She did an incredible job and we couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Wedding officiant Heidi's only job is to make sure that you both have a wonderful ceremony that feels right to you. It should be memorable for the right reasons, have some laughter, a little bit of romance, and show your love for each other. She will capture your personal love story and your ceremony will definitely Not be long and boring! Heidi has married over 650 couples since 2016 and she's known for making the process easy and stress free for you. As a former wedding planner, she makes sure your ceremony flows smoothly and she will help you feel calm and actually enjoy your ceremony!

My husband and I had so much fun working with Heidi from Love Story Vows! From the moment we met Heidi and her wonderful photographer husband, Alan, we knew they were the perfect duo for our Safari Park wedding. They were helpful, communicative, and constantly positive. With Heidi's easy to follow resources and clear questionnaires and forms, together we created the most perfect, nature-centric ceremony. Many of our guests were blown away by our heartfelt ceremony and details of our love story. As a type A bride, Heidi and I had a lot of back and forth emails trying to get the ceremony just right, and she even added a special piece about the symbolism between the Safari animals and our marriage, something very important to us. I think we must have called to the animals, because the most serendipitous thing happened during the ceremony-- a parade of several giraffes came galloping along right behind us, right before I was going to say my vows. We were all completely awestruck, it was just the perfect moment. When we look back on our wedding day, we are blessed to have memories of Heidi's calming and reliable presence. She gave us water, positivity, and delivered the most beautiful ceremony. Our guests who had the chance to meet Heidi, shared with us what a kind person she was. Many also said they loved the tone of her voice and how she was very professional and had the audience in control. Heidi and Alan are both so knowledgeable about weddings, and with their help we felt confident that we had a solid timeline. We felt very well taken care of in their presence. Thank you!

There’s something sacred about standing with two people as they speak their vows and begin a new chapter—and I absolutely love standing with couples - I never take that for granted! Congratulations! I’m Angie, the heart behind Ceremonies By GieGie, and I believe your wedding ceremony should feel like home—personal, beautiful, and unmistakably you. I’m not your typical officiant reading generic lines. I take time to get to know your story, your humor, your hopes—and weave it all into a ceremony that feels intimate, joyful, and meaningful.

It was such a joy to work with Angie as our wedding officiant—we would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a thoughtful, compassionate presence to guide their ceremony. From our very first meeting, we knew she was the one. Angie took the time to truly get to know us as individuals and as a couple, and she approached our interfaith marriage with care and deep respect. She wove together the most meaningful elements from each of our backgrounds and created a ceremony that felt completely, beautifully us. It struck the perfect balance of warmth, tradition, and personalization—we still have guests telling us how moved they were. We are so grateful to Angie for helping us begin our marriage in such a meaningful way.
