Embodied Union Ceremonies 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Offers 9 ceremony types
  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Ravena, NY

Embodied Union Ceremonies offers somatic wedding and vow renewal ceremonies in New York and Puerto Rico. Led by Jillian Stella — a somatic healing guide with years of training in body-based practice and emotional regulation — every ceremony is designed so couples actually feel it while it's happening. The somatic work and the ceremony are one and the same: you arrive grounded, present, and inside the moment before a single word is spoken.

We can’t recommend Jillian enough as a wedding officiant. From our very first conversation, she was incredibly thoughtful and took the time to truly get to know us as a couple, which meant so much. We chose to do her full Unfurling package, and it was one of the best decisions we made. One aspect that really stood out was the somatic stress release session before the ceremony. It was something we had never even heard of before, but it made all the difference—it helped us feel grounded, present, and deeply connected in a way we didn’t realize we needed going into the ceremony. The ceremony she created was absolutely beautiful—personal, heartfelt, and perfectly reflective of our story. She also integrated somatic elements into the ceremony itself, which made the experience feel even more intentional and special. So many of our guests commented on how meaningful and unique it was. Jillian brought such a calm, warm, and reassuring presence throughout the entire process. She guided us every step of the way and made everything feel easy and stress-free, allowing us to fully be present and enjoy our day. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, professional, and truly amazing at what they do, Jillian is the perfect choice. We feel so lucky to have had her as part of our wedding.

  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $200
  • Serves Ravena, NY

At Adirondack Ever After, we believe every wedding should be as unique and meaningful as the love story it celebrates. Nestled in the breathtaking Adirondack region of upstate New York, we specialize in creating unforgettable weddings and elopements that reflect who you are as a couple. We are passionate about bringing your vision to life with authenticity and attention to detail, ensuring your special day feels joyful, heartfelt, and uniquely yours. At Adirondack Ever After, your celebration is our joy — and we’re honored to help you create memories that will last a lifetime!

From the moment we first spoke with Fabi, we knew she wasn’t just another wedding vendor—she was someone who truly cared about us and our story. She listened with so much heart, asked questions we’d never even thought about, and somehow turned all of that into a ceremony that felt perfect to our story. In the weeks leading up, she was our calm in the chaos—answering every question, even helping us with last minute vendor coordination when we had our florist and makeup artist suddenly cancel. She made sure we felt supported every step of the way. On the day itself, she showed up with this quiet confidence and warmth that made us both instantly relax. Standing there, listening to the script, we felt completely present—like the rest of the world had disappeared and it was just us. It was emotional, it was joyful, had the perfect notes of humor true to us and it was exactly what we had hoped for, only better. Our friends and family still talk about how beautiful and personal it was. Adirondack Ever After didn’t just officiate our wedding—she made it a moment we’ll carry in our hearts forever.

Norman officiated our Ten Year Vow Renewal, and he is very professional, courteous, and very organized. Norman traveled from New Jersey to Colorado, to officiate and celebrate with us, and exceeded our expectations. He was so prompt in responding to our emails, questions, and gave us some great feedback while planning our ceremony. We received SO many comments on how beautiful our ceremony was, the words were meaningful, and sincere. Thank you, Norman!

  • Serves Ravena, NY for additional fees

Clergy for modern couples who want a ceremony that feels personal, meaningful, and emotionally unforgettable. As an ordained interfaith minister, holistic somatic practitioner, I bring a unique blend of ceremony, emotional presence, spiritual inclusivity, and calming support to your wedding day. I serve couples who may not want a traditional religious ceremony, but still want the moment to feel sacred, intentional, warm and deeply connected. I create ceremonies that honor your love story, your values, your energy, and the emotional experience you want to share with your guests. My approach is modern, inclusive, heartfelt, and grounded.

Reverend Julie is a truly amazing wedding officiant and will provide you with the sweetest service and insightful guidance in building a ceremony to last you forever. We were traveling across country to our wedding location, so all of our planning time with Julie was done remotely over phone or video call - and she was always so accommodating and helpful in this process. As a largely secular couple, we didn’t have a lot of presumptions or direction for what our wedding ceremony could or should be - and Julie was an excellent guide and gave great structure to helping us find our way in that space. She made excellent and insightful suggestions about what we may want to include or subjects she would speak to - and in the end she provided us with the most amazing ceremony, catered exactly to our own needs and personalities and we are so grateful for having chosen Julie to do this service for us. We will never forget it. We highly, highly recommend Reverend Julie for any service, to celebrate a special day in your love or life.

Weddings in the Gunks 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Ravena, NY for additional fees

Terence Ward, the founder of Weddings in the Gunks, believes that everyone deserves to have this important moment in their story celebrated with a healthy mix of dignity and joy. Exactly what's in that mix is more up to the clients than anybody else. It can include sacred religious moments like blessing the couple or fasting their hands, science fiction elements like a Bajoran blessing, time-honored traditions such as breaking a glass, and remembering loved ones who are no longer with us.

Awarded Best of Zola
Terence is fabulous! My husband and I got married with a surprise elopement on New Year's Eve in 2021, and Terence acted with such professionalism and discretion (which was appreciated, hence the surprise). Planning/coordinating was easy - he was quick to communicate with/respond to us about details regarding the ceremony, which was wildly helpful, as we planned our elopement just 1 month in advance! My husband and I were very nervous before our ceremony, and Terence's warm, friendly demeanor helped us feel more comfortable and at ease. I would definitely recommend Terence's officiant services to other couples. Whether you're planning a traditional ceremony or a simple elopement, he'll do a great job for you!
