Soco & Co

Portland, OR
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $350

Hi! My name is Anna Soco (she/her) and I'm the PNW's premiere Queer wedding officiant and believer in love. My work is rooted in the belief that love is alive, communal, and transformative - and because of that, your wedding ceremony should be, too! I work with soulmates of all kinds to create ceremonies that reflect what truly matters most to you. My clients (y'all!) are my "co" - each new client relationship is an opportunity to learn more about love, together. I adore, appreciate, and learn from each and every one of you. And I never quit rooting for my couples!

“We chose Anna (Soco & Co) to officiate our wedding and couldn't have made a better decision! From our first conversation, we felt at ease because of her empathetic approach and genuine interest in getting to know us as a couple. She helped calm our nerves during the vow reading and helped make everything run smoothly. What really stood out was how she told our love story during the ceremony, it felt so authentic and heartfelt that several guests said they felt like she had known us for years. Her articulate delivery and engaging presence made the whole ceremony feel personal and special. We're forever grateful to have had her be such an important part of our day!”

Matrimony Northwest 
Rating: 5.0 (19 reviews)
Portland, OR
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $145
  • Offer

Anthony is a licensed attorney who started officiating weddings in Oregon as a Judge (hence our company’s former name, The Wedding Judge). Matrimony Northwest has expanded in the 15 years since Anthony officiated his first wedding and has added two additional officiants—Emily and Henry. The three of them have officiated thousands of weddings in the Pacific Northwest in all different types of venues - back yards, courtrooms, coffee shops, beaches, mountain vistas, and more. Anthony is only the second person to have officiated a wedding in the Oregon State Capitol Building, and the only person to do so in modern times.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Anthony at The Wedding Judge made the whole ceremony so straightforward and easy. We were able to pick a template and add our own vows to make it our own and got a detailed rehearsal guide that made the whole process super smooth. We have gotten nothing but compliments on how beautiful our ceremony was ever since.”

“Young Hip & Married were excellent wedding officiants to work with. They demonstrated a compassionate communication style and had a deep understanding of the wedding ceremony process, always keeping the focus on the love that binds couples together. For our ceremony, they sent the couple a survey about how they met, and then crafted a personalized ceremony that I delivered as the officiant. The ceremony was nearly flawless, with just a brief pause when their young daughter momentarily interrupted. Overall, the ceremony was very well-received, with dozens of guests telling me afterwards what an awesome job I did. I highly recommend Young Hip & Married to any couple looking for a wedding officiant who will create a meaningful and memorable ceremony.”

A Portland native, and founder of EC Matrimony, Ernie has become an expert in all things weddings. Having recently stepped away from a career in Marketing/Public Relations, Ernie has taken his business from part-time to full-time in 2021 to help more couples realize their wedding dreams. Throughout his 18 years in the industry, and having performed over 3,000 weddings, it’s easy to see why he’s been featured in bridal magazines, national IG posts, and been featured in Huffington Post twice, and on realty TV. Add to that the dozens of national awards he’s won over the years, and you can tell why he’s in demand as a wedding officiant.

“We hired EC Matrimony for our wedding, and Ernie was our officiant. He was absolutely wonderful. If I had to do the day all over again, I would hire him without hesitation. Ernie was on time, professional, calm, and a huge help throughout the entire process. From the start, he made everything feel seamless and easy, which took so much stress off of us during wedding planning. On the day of the wedding, he was organized, confident, and helped guide us through everything so smoothly. You can tell he truly cares about what he does and about the couples he works with. We are so grateful he was part of our day and would highly recommend EC Matrimony and Ernie to anyone looking for an officiant. -Anna & Sebastian”

She took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted something that felt personal and truly reflective of who we are. Rabbi Yohanna also made the entire process smooth. She was always willing to make time to meet with us and our pastor even on short notice, and was incredibly accommodating throughout the process.”

  • Offers 8 ceremony types

I’m a dog-loving, candy-obsessed celebrant in Vancouver, WA with a soft spot for great stories, bold personalities, and weddings with a little edge. I thrive on big feelings, loud laughs, and ceremonies that feel alive. People tell me my energy is magnetic—warm, vibrant, and deeply empathetic—and I bring all of that into everything I do. I’m a natural storyteller who listens closely, remembers the details, and connects quickly, which makes my work feel natural, intuitive, and genuinely human.

“Kiki was an amazing officiant and far more than that, she was better than we could’ve ever hoped for. When there was a mishap with our rehearsal and our coordinator couldn’t make it, she stepped up and took over without a second thought. Hire her, you won’t regret it!”

“BJ was so lovely to work with. I initially met her at the Portland Expo and after talking in person, I knew she would fit well into our wedding. She understood what kind of a couple we are and led our ceremony exactly as we wanted. She communicated via text and phone and was very easy to keep in contact with. We had a ceremony time change a month before the wedding and she happily adjusted her schedule. Sam and I are thankful we had BJ to usher us into our next journey.”

He has a natural ability to make an event feel truly magical, and I would happily recommend him for anyone looking for a memorable and imaginative performer.”
