From the very first time we spoke with him, he was super easy to talk to and offered us very helpful information to make our ceremony feel more personal and intimate.

“We had The Dudeist Ministers officiate our ceremony, and it was completely worth it. From our first conversation, he felt like an old friend rather than someone we just hired. He listened to what we wanted and stayed flexible when we needed to change things at the last minute, which took so much stress off our shoulders. The ceremony itself was personal and meaningful, and our guests still talk about how special it felt. We're still happily married and about to celebrate our second anniversary, so we can say with confidence that he set the right tone for our marriage from day one. We'd recommend him to any couple looking for an officiant who actually cares.”

“Alex at Officiant NYC was absolutely INCREDIBLE! We genuinely could not have imagined a more perfect person to officiate our wedding in New York City. From beginning to end, he made what was already the most important day of our lives into something even more magical than we could have dreamed. Alex has such an amazing personality and an infectious, positive energy that immediately puts you at ease. He is kind, thoughtful, passionate, genuine, and so incredibly personable. There wasn't a single moment where we felt stressed, rushed, pressured, or worried about what came next. He had EVERYTHING taken care of. We were able to simply be present, soak in every second, and enjoy the moment together. The ceremony itself was absolutely beautiful. Alex brought so much warmth, sincerity, and heart to every word. You could genuinely feel how much he loves what he does, and that passion shines through in the way he treats the couples he marries. It was intimate, meaningful, emotional, and everything we wanted our wedding to be. Officiant NYC's prices are the most reasonable i found. Communication was fantastic, emails, phone appointments, and a personalized questionnaire. They file your marriage license with the court and send you the tracking info in an email!! No extra travel fee for going into Manhattan, either! It's been two weeks since our wedding, and we're STILL riding the high of that day! We find ourselves looking back and smiling, wishing we could experience every second all over again. Officiant NYC played the biggest part of that, and we'll forever be grateful.”

I'm Rev. Dr. Jeff Saville, (call me Jeff) a retired Navy chaplain with 26 yrs military service and real church pastor (not just ordained online). I can lead a highly customized & personalized wedding ceremony at a winery, golf club, beach, on a military base or in a hot air balloon! Or if you just need to be quickly/legally married very inexpensively, I do that too! When you contact me you will quickly receive detailed info, a sample but customizable ceremony, and offer times for a free consultation by videocall to answer questions about levels of service (Gold/Silver/Bronze), the fees, OPTIONAL Premarital Counseling and more!

“Without a doubt, Jeff was the best investment we made for our wedding and for our marriage. With Jeff we invested in our marriage with his premarital coaching. Wedding planning can be stressful, and this coaching and relationship homework kept our minds on what was truly important. We met regularly with Jeff via video calls, and he graciously welcomed us into his home for our first coaching session and later for a ceremony rehearsal. The mini-rehearsal was incredibly helpful! He even taught us “the dip” at the end of the aisle, which we practiced together leading up to our big day. On the wedding day, Jeff arrived early, dressed to impress in an outfit of our choosing, and led the most beautiful ceremony. Multiple guests told us it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever witnessed. Personally, I felt an overwhelming sense of calm and joy on the morning of our wedding—something I truly believe was made possible by Jeff’s preparation, guidance, and genuine care. We are forever grateful.”

When the wedding date came closer we had a zoom meeting with Danny and talked about how my husband and I met, and the vibe we wanted for the wedding. Now let me tell you, I don't know how I didn't shed a tear during our ceremony, because Danny's words were so heartfelt. I honestly wish I would go back in the time to relive my ceremony.

“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!

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!

He is a true professional and really took the time to learn details about us as a couple in order to curate the perfect ceremony. We couldn’t have been happier with how it turned out! We also had sort of a unique request and needed a non-family member/friend to deliver one of our rehearsal dinner speeches. Tim, without question, gave up an extra hour of his Friday evening to deliver the speech for us and we couldn’t have been more grateful! I would absolutely recommend Tim to any couples looking for a professional, reliable, and personable wedding officiant!”

Hi, I’m Yvonne — Lead Officiant - Founder, and your personal hype woman for one of the biggest moments of your life. I am Texas based and I’ve married over 400 couples, and no two love stories have ever been the same. I started officiating as a tribute to my sister, who passed away unexpectedly in 2023. She loved us all deeply and wholeheartedly, and celebrating life’s big moments without her was the hardest part of losing her. Helping couples honor their journey and love story has been my way of healing — one beautiful, heartfelt ceremony at a time. Whether your vows are traditional, bilingual, or totally outside the box, I’m here for it. ♥

“There are some people you meet during the wedding planning process who simply feel like they were meant to be part of your story, and Yvonne with Blissful and Beyond Unions was one of those people for us. From our very first conversation, she made us feel completely comfortable, cared for, and understood. What started as premarital counseling quickly felt like two friends sitting down with someone who genuinely wanted the best for our marriage. We were nervous about premarital counseling at first, especially knowing that we would have to tackle some hard and vulnerable conversations. But Yvonne created a safe space for us to open up, laugh, and reflect. She listened to our entire millennial love story, laughed with us, and even almost shed a few tears along the way. What makes Yvonne so special was that she never made us feel like we were just another couple she was officiating. She took the time to learn who we were, what mattered to us, and how we wanted our wedding ceremony to feel. And she truly listened. She took everything we shared and brought it to life so beautifully. Our ceremony was everything we hoped it would be and more! She performed a beautiful bilingual service and incorporated both the lasso ceremony and jumping the broom, making the ceremony feel deeply personal and representative of us, our love, and our families. She absolutely knocked it out of the park!!! Yvonne has a gift for making people feel like family… your Tia, if you will! My girl married us, parties with us, and became a part of our tribe. We genuinely could not have imagined anyone else marrying us. If you are looking for an officiant who will take the time to truly know you, make you feel comfortable, and create a ceremony that feels authentically yours, book Yvonne with Blissful and Beyond Unions. We couldn’t recommend her more!!!”

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.

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!”

“I had the pleasure of having Carla officiate my wedding in September and she was a joy to work with every step of the way. She really takes the time to get to know you and your relationship with your partner, by the time we had the wedding Carla was like a part of the family! She helps a lot with other wedding questions as well and gives valuable insight. She had everyone laughing and smiling during the wedding and brought an amazing/loving vibe to the whole event.

I've had over 30 years experience of helping couples plan and facilitate their wedding ceremony, in grand or intimate venues, either as an officiant or as a musician. I grew up in a small town outside of Athens, GA and graduated from the University of Georgia (GO DAWGS) in 1995 with a Bachelor of Music degree concentrating in piano and voice. I've been married since 2006 to my wife, Ellen and we have three beautiful children: Kate, Meredith, and Owen.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Lem LeRoy, the wedding officiant, was a real pleasure to work with. My husband and I were really nervous about choosing an officiant for our wedding because we didn't know what to expect, but Lem made the entire process easy and seamless. He was very thorough, asking all the right questions to understand what we wanted our day to be like. Lem always followed up with us and made sure we knew what we needed when it came to the marriage license, taking that stress off our plate. He also made sure the ceremony was exactly what we wanted it to be, changing anything we asked him to. Lem took the time to get to know us better, which really shone through in the personalized ceremony he created. We are so grateful to Lem for helping make our wedding day special and memorable.”

Officially Oaks is a premier wedding officiant firm serving the great state of Texas across the Austin, San Antonio, Hill Country, and Houston areas. Together with our team of licensed professional officiants, we're dedicated to creating a Ceremony as Extraordinary as Your Love Story.

“Luke was absolutely amazing! He was professional, confident, and incredibly composed while officiating our ceremony in front of all of our family and friends. After the ceremony, so many people came up to us saying how wonderful “our friend” did and that it was one of the most beautiful ceremonies they had ever witnessed, which says everything about Luke. I had the chance to meet Luke before my husband could, and he was more than willing to set aside time to meet with the groom before the wedding to ensure everyone felt comfortable and prepared. We also had a few Zoom calls leading up to the big day that truly helped calm our nerves and made us feel completely ready. Luke also helped us step away after the ceremony for a brief, intimate moment to sign our certificate together in person, which meant so much to us. Luke has such a warm, natural presence that everyone genuinely thought we had known him for years. Officially Oaks is hands down the best wedding officiant you could hire. I would recommend Luke to anyone without hesitation!”

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.
