Emerald Elegance Ceremonies 

5.0

  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $350
  • 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 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.

The Resonant Officiant

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.

Kaitlin, the officiant from The Resonant Officiant, was a true professional and pleasure to work with. Her communication style was collaborative, clear and authentic, which put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was excellent, as she thoughtfully crafted a personalized ceremony that felt both meaningful and precise. When unexpected challenges arose, like the windy conditions that threatened to blow out our unity candles, Kaitlin seamlessly adjusted her script to keep the moment authentic and special. She also provided invaluable guidance and support, helping me with my vows when public speaking made me nervous. Kaitlin's warm personality, attention to detail, and genuine care for creating a memorable ceremony have left a lasting impression on us, even years later. We highly recommend The Resonant Officiant to any couple looking for an officiant who will make their wedding day truly unforgettable.

At Blissful Vows, I create heartfelt, personalized ceremonies that reflect your unique love story. Whether you're planning a rustic barn wedding or a romantic garden “I do,” I bring warmth, professionalism, and a touch of magic to every moment.

She traveled a long way to be at our venue, and from the moment she arrived, she exceeded every expectation we had. She took the time to retell our love story with such genuine care and beautifully chosen words. Even though we wrote our own vows, the way she delivered the ceremony made them feel perfectly connected, as if they were crafted to go together. I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She brings such a personal touch and she makes you feel like she’s known you your whole life. She also made us feel completely comfortable, which means everything when you’re standing up there full of nerves. If you’re looking for someone who makes you feel like family instead of just another client, she is absolutely your girl.

I love giving my couples an experience they will treasure forever. Your ceremony should fill you with happy memories when you think back on how you began your journey together as one. My ceremonies celebrate love, marriage, partnership, and connection. I have been ordained since 2014 and I am licensed to solemnize marriages in NJ, PA, NY, DE, and MD. I am happy to marry ANY loving, consenting couple who wishes to tie the knot in style. My delivery is engaging and energetic, with a professionally trained voice from decades of singing opera, voiceover work, and public oration, enabling me to deliver a beautiful, unforgettable ceremony.

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!!

Just say NO to boring ceremonies! 😜 We are going to make it entertaining, meaningful, and unforgettable! Your ceremony will be 100% unique and *almost* as special as the love you have for your future spouse. Are you willing to hire "just anyone" to perform your wedding ceremony? We didn't think so. You have so many choices, so how do you choose? Have a phone conversation or Zoom call with your prospective officiant. Listen to their voice. Do you hear the tonality, inflection, and *presence* that you want for your ceremony? You'll be glad that you took the time for this little bit of homework. #LoveForAll #MarriageForEveryone

My girl is LOVED by every couple and vendor she gets to work with! Super proud of how far she’s come and all she’s doing in the industry! A true rockstar. Hire. Her.
