I’ve known Norman (and the newlyweds) for years, and watching him lead the ceremony was truly amazing. I had the pleasure of being a bridesmaid, and they honestly couldn’t have picked a better officiant! He made everything feel so warm and personal, heartfelt, and even a little fun! He gave us smiles, he gave us laughs, and he perfectly captured the couple’s personalities. Weddings can be hectic and stressful, but he made sure that on the big day they were calm, confident, and completely at ease in front of everyone. It was very natural, very organic, and I loved that. The ceremony flowed beautifully, and so many of us were smiling, laughing, and even tearing up at the perfect moments. The bridesmaids cried, the groomsmen cried, we all cried. But it was all happy tears, such a beautiful thing to be apart of! We all had such a great time, and you could just tell how much thought and care he put into making their day special. If you want someone who’s professional, warm, and makes the whole experience unforgettable, someone who’s going to reflect on your personalities and your journey as a couple, and someone to really move and make your guests feel that love in the atmosphere, Norman is the man to call! You surely won’t regret it.

Michael did a perfect job officiating our wedding. The entire process was so easy. From our initial calls, to working on the script he put together, to helping my now wife with her vows on the wedding day - Michael was so helpful and easy to work with every step of the way. We had an idea of what we wanted in a ceremony, and Michael took our loose ideas and absolutely nailed it. The ceremony he put together for us was absolutely perfect. It felt like he had known us our entire lives. We had several guests ask where we found such a great officiant and comment on what a great job he did. We weren't putting a huge emphasis on our ceremony, as we had always wanted a ceremony on the shorter side, but it ended up being one of the highlights of the day. We'll treasure those moments for the rest of our lives, and Michael is to thank for that. We're absolutely thrilled with Michael & our ceremony and we would recommend him to anyone without a doubt!!

The Resonant Officiant

Clayton, NJ
  • Offers 9 ceremony types
  • Starts at $200
  • Serves New Jersey

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.

Kait was the perfect officiant! From start to finish, she made the process effortless and personal, crafting a ceremony that felt true to us. On our wedding day, she balanced warmth, humor, and professionalism beautifully. Kait didn’t just officiate—she helped create a meaningful memory we’ll cherish forever.

Rainbow Ministries specializes in inclusive and LGBTQ+ weddings. Our mission is to provide a safe space for all walks of life. 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!

It will be moving. Close to perfect; far from boring! It will be a little unexpected and perhaps a little traditional, but it will be totally you.

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!

Celia Milton is truly the most incredible person you could have by your side on your wedding day. From the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease, and it quickly became clear that she was so much more than just an officiant, she was our guide, our storyteller, and the person who brought the heart of our ceremony to life. Honestly, without her, our day would not have felt nearly as personal or profound; her presence and words were absolutely priceless and worth every single moment of planning. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail are unmatched. From our first meeting, she took the time to get to know us, to understand our story, and to reflect our values and personalities in a ceremony that felt completely and uniquely ours. She crafted something so thoughtful and intentional, and delivered it with such grace and joy, that it felt like we were being married by someone who had known us for years. Guests are still telling us how beautiful and meaningful the ceremony was; how it struck the perfect balance of heartfelt, humorous, and deeply genuine. Celia had everyone engaged, laughing, and even tearing up, and somehow made the entire room feel connected. It didn’t feel like a script; it felt like a celebration of us. What truly sets Celia apart is how deeply she cares about every couple. We trusted her completely, and that trust was met with such compassion, creativity, and a sense of calm that anchored the entire day. Even amidst all the moving parts of a wedding, it was Celia who set the tone, making everything feel intentional, joyful, and full of love. Choosing Celia Milton wasn’t just about hiring an officiant, it was about inviting someone into one of the most meaningful moments of our lives, and having her elevate it in every possible way. She is extraordinary, both as a professional and as a person, and we cannot recommend her enough. If you’re considering her, DO IT! She will give you a ceremony you’ll never forget.

Ken was great! I had no idea what I wanted for my ceremony. Ken went through a ton of possibilities created a form to guide me and my now husband through the process. We missed our opportunity to connect due to my wedding party being late and we missed our opportunity to connect the day of the wedding, but he was waiting for us at the altar prepared to deliver his speech.

Founded by Annette Panasiuk, an ordained minister and award-winning officiant since 2012, the business is known for crafting heartfelt, customized ceremonies that reflect each couple’s unique love story.

Although this review comes six years later, the impact of our wedding officiant has never faded. Life happens, but some people leave such a lasting impression that time simply doesn’t erase it—and she is one of those people. From premarital counseling to our wedding day and even thoughtful follow-ups afterward, she was nothing short of exceptional. Her guidance was genuine, her presence was calming and affirming, and she truly cared—not just about the ceremony, but about us as a couple and our marriage as a whole. What stands out most is her heart. She is for everyone. There isn’t a single prejudiced or discriminatory bone in her body, and in a world where inclusivity truly matters, she embodied that long before it became a buzzword. She made us feel seen, respected, and supported every step of the way. If God allows us the blessing of renewing our vows one day, she will be our first and only choice—without hesitation. Thank you for being such a beautiful part of our journey. I’m forever grateful, and I hope you know how deeply appreciated you are.

I enjoy working with couples to create your perfect ceremony. I love to meet, in person or virtually, so you can share your story, and you get to know me a little so it feels like you're getting married by a friend.

Ceremonies by Vanessa LLC was an amazing choice for our wedding officiant. From the very first conversation, Vanessa communicated with us in a warm and professional manner. She took the time to fully understand everything we wanted included in our ceremony, and then executed it flawlessly. The little details she incorporated, like our special readings, made the ceremony feel truly tailored to us. Vanessa's expertise and attention to detail resulted in a wedding ceremony that was above and beyond our expectations. We are so grateful to Vanessa for helping make our special day perfect.
