Emerald Elegance Ceremonies 
Rating: 5.0 (16 reviews)
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA

I became a wedding officiant in 2023 because I believe ceremonies should be anything but boring. This is the moment two people declare their love, it should be heartfelt, engaging, and unapologetically 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 was absolutely amazing for our wedding. Not only did she make our vision of a perfect ceremony come true, she added to it, making our special day a dream! The customization of our ceremony and the attention to detail was truly special. Including our guests in the ceremony and the annunciation of every word, with not one mishap, was truly appreciated. Most of all her communication was excellent and she treated us like family--caring for our personal mental space (outside of the ceremony). Her professionalism is top tier. Emerald worked at the highest level, and if I didnt plan to be married only this one time, I'd I'd use her again!”

“We also had Love & Laughter Weddings officiate our ceremony, in addition to having them be our full planners for our multi day destination wedding and I truly couldn’t imagine our wedding without them. From the start, they made the ceremony process feel so personal and intentional. They took the time to learn about our story, what mattered most to us, and the kind of atmosphere we wanted our ceremony to have. We really didn’t want something that felt generic or scripted, and they created a ceremony that felt completely authentic to us. It was heartfelt, warm, and perfectly balanced... emotional in all the right moments but still light and joyful. Several of our guests told us afterward that it was one of the most meaningful ceremonies they had attended and asked if we were longtime friends because of how personal and meaningful it felt. On the wedding day everything felt calm and natural. Our officiant guided us through the ceremony with such warmth and confidence that it immediately put us at ease. Standing there in that moment felt incredibly special and we’re so grateful for how beautifully they helped bring it all together. They also handled all the legal paperwork and made that part of the process completely stress free, which was such a relief during such a busy time. If you’re looking for an officiant who will truly take the time to make your ceremony feel personal and memorable, I can’t recommend Love & Laughter Weddings enough! It was one of the most meaningful parts of our entire wedding weekend.”

The Vibe & The Vows

Philadelphia, PA
  • Offers 9 ceremony types
  • Starts at $495

I’m Kesha Dionne. With nearly 20 years in the wedding industry, I’ve been part of countless celebrations—each unique, yet centered around one meaningful moment. Over time, I’ve come to understand that while details may vary, the ceremony is where everything truly comes together. As an ordained officiant, I create custom ceremonies with care, intention, and respect for the moment. I work closely with couples to understand their story so the ceremony reflects not just what they’ve planned—but who they are.

“From our first conversation, we knew Kesha from The Vibe & The Vows was going to be the perfect fit for our elopement. She had such a caring and warm approach to everything, asking thoughtful questions to understand what mattered to us and making sure our ceremony felt truly personal. Kesha nailed every detail—from the placement of where we stood to the exact words she used—and it was clear she put real intention into crafting our moment. On the day itself, she was an absolute godsend, keeping everything flowing smoothly and bringing this fun, charismatic energy that made us feel completely at ease. Even though we chose an intimate elopement instead of a traditional wedding, Kesha made it feel just as special and meaningful as any big celebration. We wouldn't change a thing about how she helped us say our vows.”

On wedding day, you grow your community by joining two families together. I make sure you don't miss the opportunity to feel hope, love and a spark of holiness.

In pre-marital counseling, I guide you through questions that will come up throughout your marriage.

“Rabbi Elyssa was an incredible officiant. She led a beautiful ceremony that incorporated Jewish traditions and personal anecdotes. She also led a very special Ketubah signing before the ceremony. My favorite part, though, was when she guided my husband and me in a private grounding meditation and prayer. This truly helped calm my anxiety and feel ready for the festivities. We also had multiple meetings before the wedding, and she was always available for any questions that came up. I highly recommend Rabbi Elyssa for any life event!”

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.

“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!!”

I had an issue with my marriage license and he was calling me that day with advice and giving steps. He sends emails to keep brides on track and give advice with the license and name changing.

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.

Their excitement for our unique style fed into us and I feel made the day even more special. I really enjoyed how my wife and I's answers to the questionnaire were incorporated into the ceremony script, it added such a personal touch. I cried reading through all of the script drafts. Both ladies were so lovely to work with and we had several calls together to make sure all the unique details we wanted were incorporated. We were not able to schedule time to physically practice the handfasting, but I could tell that Jenny had studied the video we referenced and everything went smoothly. Our goal was to have not a dry eye in the audience and we definitely achieved that thanks to Ginger's script and Jenny's delivery.”

As a mother, daughter, wife and sister I know the importance of celebrating big moments. I also know the value of having reliable help to ensure that the party you've planned is also one that you get to enjoy. I am a storyteller at heart and find event coordination a most delightful medium - for all celebrations tell someone's story, be it the beginning, middle or end. My passion is discovering the best way to tell yours.

“Dana was by far the most helpful/standout of the wedding crew and we couldn’t have done it without her!! She had amazing energy from the start, and always found opportunities to step up and help out - for example: we had thought our dinner was a set menu but it turned out they were taking orders! Dana stepped in to ask every guest their order and coordinate with the service team. She took the time to connect with us, and truly celebrate with us/celebrate us! She was an integral part of making the day perfect and I cannot recommend her enough!!!”
