“Alex officiated our wedding and completely exceeded every expectation we had. He crafted a bilingual ceremony in English and Spanish that wasn't just translated—it was genuinely written in both languages, using each for what it expresses best. It was beautiful for our English-speaking guests and meaningful in an entirely different way for our Spanish-speaking family and friends. His entire approach was romantic, personal, and our guests were blown away. He kept the focus entirely on love and on us as a couple, creating a ceremony that was inclusive and joyful without ever losing sight of what the day was really about. As two grooms, it meant everything to have someone who honored our relationship with such care and intention. I've been to a lot of weddings. I have never heard so many guests spontaneously rave about an officiant the way they did about Alex. Weeks later, people are still bringing it up. He is the real deal.”

He guided us through planning the ceremony with clear communication over email, phone, and video calls, and even hosted a mini-rehearsal at his home and answered all of our questions with great detail. On the wedding day, he arrived looking great in the outfit we’d chosen and took time to coach everyone through their roles before the ceremony. The ceremony itself was beautifully led—thoughtful, heartfelt, and seamless. Afterwards, he even sent us photos he had taken, which was such a kind touch.

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!

Hello and congratulations!! I absolutely LOVE officiating weddings! With over 30 years and 2,100 weddings officiated I want to do more. For the last 12 years my fulltime "job" is marrying couples! I feel so honored that I get to do this for a living!!

“We were married this past April, and James Simmons really made our special day come together. He was fantastic to work with and just oozes experience and geniality. The resources and guidance he provided was invaluable in helping us put together our plan for the ceremony, and in bringing it to fruition. Communication was always super fast, and any questions or uncertainty we had he cleared up immediately. He’s a genuinely nice person and we got along great with him! We thought he was so funny and very sweet! :) On the day of, he ran the ceremony like an orchestra conductor - and knew when to step out of the way for the photos! Honestly, our ceremony couldn’t have been any better than it was and Rev Simmons was a critical part of that. He had an amazing speaking voice as well, and several guests commented on how well he did. We recommend him to anyone and everyone who is looking for an officiant!”

“Choosing Dawn to officiate our wedding was truly one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire planning process. She is incredibly kind, genuine, and so easy to work with. From the very beginning, she made everything feel simple and stress-free. One of the things we loved most was how she allowed us to personalize the entire ceremony—every word she spoke felt intentional and perfectly aligned with the tone we wanted for our day. What meant the most to us was that Dawn never felt like “just a vendor.” Standing up there with her felt like having a close friend by our side, speaking the most heartfelt and beautiful words on one of the most important moments of our lives. She radiates such warm, loving, and positive energy, and everyone in attendance felt it throughout the ceremony. Another thing that sets Dawn apart is that her support doesn’t end once the ceremony is over. She stayed available afterward for anything we needed, whether it was guidance on name-change steps, paperwork, or post-wedding questions. She truly goes above and beyond, even after the big day. We can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a wedding officiant. My husband and I already joke that the wedding day went by way too fast, and we’ve agreed that for every future vow renewal or celebration of our marriage, Dawn will always be the one we choose. We’re so grateful for her and everything she did to make our day unforgettable.”

During our initial call with Chris, my husband and I knew immediately that we wanted to hire him after hearing him explain his process and how he approaches each ceremony. We wanted a non-religious wedding ceremony that would wow our guests, and we wanted our guests to be just as engaged in the ceremony as we were. We did not want a ceremony that was simply reciting poetry or generic readings about marriage that did not have anything to do with us. Chris delivered all of that and more. Chris was easy to work with and patient throughout the entire process. He listened to what we wanted and tailored the ceremony to make it uniquely ours, as if he was a friend who knew us well. And the result? Our guests absolutely loved the ceremony. We received multiple compliments about how captivated everyone was during Chris’s speech, and they could not stop raving about him afterward. We went into the ceremony confident he could deliver on our high expectations, and he still blew us away. Chris is amazing, and we are so glad we chose him to be our officiant. He made our ceremony so personal, meaningful, and memorable. We could not recommend him enough!”

June of 2023 I officiated my first wedding and had so much fun, I decided to take this on and build a brand others and myself would love. Since then, I’ve officiated over 370 weddings and am still loving every minute of it.

The quality of their work and value was simply amazing - they helped make our ceremony memorable and everything went smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to be a part of our special day. Highly recommend The Officiant Jawn!”

Whether you’re looking to elope, for a small intimate sunset beach wedding on the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico, a commitment ceremony, a ceremony at a large fancy venue, or anything in between, I can help create what you most desire for your day — a perfect, memorable celebration that you, your family, your wedding party, and your guests will truly enjoy. Nobody really wants to attend a wedding they’ve been to time and time again. They want to experience your story and your style in every aspect of your ceremony. That’s why I believe in creating a ceremony from a blank canvas and turn it into an extraordinary ceremony.

“Keith Carson Weddings provided exceptional communication throughout the wedding planning process. They were quick to respond to all our questions and provided thorough guidance every step of the way. Their officiating services were meaningful, beautiful, and truly captured the essence of our relationship. We are so grateful to have had Keith Carson Weddings as our wedding officiants and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a personalized, thoughtful ceremony.”

Hitched! By Harper is where unforgettable ceremonies meet authentic storytelling. I’m a firefighter-turned-award-winning officiant who crafts one-of-a-kind wedding experiences rooted in joy, meaning, and a touch of humor. Since 2010, I’ve helped couples of all backgrounds feel seen, celebrated, and totally at ease on their big day. Every ceremony is written from scratch to reflect your vibe, your values, and your story—not a template in sight.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our wedding! Kevin was the first officiant we met with, and we knew right away that he was the right choice. He did such an amazing job making our ceremony feel incredibly personal and meaningful. So many of our guests told us afterward that it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they had ever attended. We even had multiple people ask us how we knew him because the ceremony felt so personal that they assumed he must have known us for years! He made everything feel completely unique to us and told our story in such a natural, genuine way. It was heartfelt, personal, and still had the perfect amount of humor. We’re so grateful for how special he made our ceremony and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant!”

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.
