Matt was incredibly helpful and supportive throughout the entire wedding ceremony process. He guided us expertly, responding promptly to all our inquiries and providing script templates that significantly shaped the ceremony from start to finish. His flexibility regarding the inclusion of religious prayers was greatly appreciated, allowing us to choose as much or as little as we desired.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am not an affectionate person. I was not looking forward to being put on display in front of 200 people to get married. But I did know that K would help me get through it. K was our officiant for our Wedding in 2019 and I couldn’t have asked for a better person. As a family friend, I knew K could give us the ceremony we wanted, and boy did she deliver. We wanted spiritual but not religious, we wanted special but not cheesy, and most of all we wanted someone calm, cool, and collected like K. From the blessings before dinner to the entire ceremony she made everyone feel welcome and loved. I honestly think I looked more at K than my now husband during the ceremony because I was so nervous. K has a genuine presence that makes everyone feel included, important, and at ease. She has a calmness about her that is infectious and makes you want to be a better person. I can’t recommend K’s services enough! No matter your event, whether it be a celebration or a time of need, K will provide that beacon of light to help you get through it.

  • Serves Triangle, VA

Rev. Elle Sojourner is a Certified Life Cycle Celebrant™, Teacher, and Author. As the owner of Spirit Fire Life Ceremonies, she crafts rituals and ceremonies for regular folks with extraordinary souls. Although she is formally educated and trained, life, love, and experience have been her most profound masterclass. She helps others grow in love through weddings, funerals, and Soul Circles­™. Elle delights in life’s joys, including her son, turtle, and dog. And she keeps her cup full with nature, music, laughter, and dance.

My husband and I were lucky enough to have our April 2024 wedding officiated by Elle at spirit fire life. As we are an interfaith couple; we wanted someone who would not mind incorporating spiritual beliefs into our ceremony keeping this in mind. We reached out to Elle a couple months ahead of our wedding and she encouraged us to set up a zoom call with her to figure out if she would be the right fit for wedding day. Well, we were so impressed from the start on everything that she brought to our call that we immediately emailed her following our discovery call to book her services. Throughout the process, Elle was kind, collaborative, and extremely professional. She was patient with us getting information to her and provided great resources to help us throughout the wedding planning process that I quite frankly never thought about. She continued to be a guiding light throughout our planning process and suggested we meet to talk through my thoughts regarding our unity ceremony. On our call she so eloquently stated something along the lines of: “sometimes it’s easier to have someone else make a decision for you when you are making so many of them.” As a result, I am positive our unity ceremony was perfectly executed thanks to Elle. She brought this level of poise and professionalism to our wedding ceremony and made our day even more wonderful than I ever could have anticipated! We are so grateful that we were able to have Elle as a member of our wedding day team.

Gemma was absolutely wonderful to work with as our wedding officiant! From the very beginning, she was so attentive to my wishes and made sure every detail felt personal and meaningful. She really took the time to understand what we wanted, and that care showed through in every part of the ceremony…even down to getting it finished and us pronounced right at 11:11! I think we had 30 seconds to go but she did her best to listen to my wishes! It was such a bonus that she also did photos for us—she captured beautiful moments that we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for someone warm, professional, and truly invested in making your day special, I highly recommend Gemma!

She knows that to engage fully with our tradition, creativity and a listening heart are key ingredients. She is a compassionate listener that believes in the power of rituals to help people connect with the tradition, God, and the community. She prides herself in responding to the needs and the desire of interfaith couples, LGBTQ folks, different family configurations, and new and older people as they search to incorporate the Jewish tradition as a relevant part of their lives.

We feel very lucky to have decided on Rabbi Lia Bass from the Jewish Institute of Lifelong Learning and Innovation, as our wedding officiant, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. Rabbi Lia was accommodating and responsive, quick to reply to emails, and most importantly, helped us shape a ceremony that truly reflected who we are as a couple. She arranged virtual meetings with us every week in the time leading up to the wedding. She presented us with a range of options for the different components of the ceremony, offering various translations and interpretations of traditional texts, and explaining the meaning and significance behind each ritual. She encouraged us to choose what resonated with us, and was respectful and accepting of all our decisions. Rabbi Lia made our ceremony personal and meaningful. We are so grateful to have had her as our officiant — she helped make our wedding day truly memorable!

Father David is a wedding officiant based in the Washington metropolitan area. Father David is there to help curate the perfect ceremony that fits your vision and your faith, while offering a modern and authentic experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
My partner and I are a same-sex couple who both come from Catholic backgrounds. Although we decided to have a garden ceremony and not a church ceremony, it was important for our families to feel at home. Our initial ask of Fr. David was not to officiate our ceremony (because we had a courthouse ceremony also planned), but to deliver a homily. However, over time, my and my partner's plans expanded slightly to include other aspects of a traditional Catholic wedding (blessings for the parents and godparents, the cord ceremony, etc.). Fr. David was more than accommodating and so supportive throughout our journey. With his support and understanding, we felt very comfortable incorporating these aspects of tradition that mean so much to us and our families, while still making the ceremony uniquely our own. He is so gentle, encouraging, and warm, and strikes the perfect balance between signifying authority given the importance of the occasion, and providing commentary to elicit laughter. We feel very blessed for Fr. David to be a significant part of our special day!

Jeremy’s process is intentionally thoughtful and collaborative. Each ceremony is custom-made through conversation, listening, and careful preparation, allowing couples to feel confident, calm, and fully present on their wedding day.

Jeremy did an outstanding job officiating! During the ceremony, he was confident, well-spoken, and timely (which was great since it was so hot!). His speaking style was clear, warm, and natural - he is very comfortable in front of a crowd. He made the experience feel so meaningful, and it was clear he had taken the time to prepare and personalize the message. Several of the guests commented on what a great job he did. I would absolutely recommend him to any couple looking for an officiant!

We initially weren’t sure if we wanted to hire an officiant, but after just one meeting with Beth, we immediately knew it was the right choice. Beth offers an incredible service and truly takes the time to get to know each couple, ensuring the ceremony feels completely personal and meaningful. Portia ended up being the perfect officiant for us. She delivered such a beautiful and heartfelt (and at times nerdy and hilarious!) ceremony that had many of our guests assuming she was a close friend or family member. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
