Awarded Best of Zola
Matt did the most amazing job with our wedding ceremony. It was fun, engaging, and heartfelt—which was exactly what we wanted—and it set the tone for the rest of our day perfectly. The process with Matt was professional and organized, while also being incredibly enjoyable. He met with us well in advance to talk about what we wanted and got to know us as a couple. He then showed us a draft and did a great job of incorporating the small amount of feedback we had. It’s been several years since our wedding, yet family and friends still regularly (and unprompted) bring up our ceremony, saying that it was one of the best they’ve ever been to. Matt was the first person we hired for our wedding, and was definitely one of the best decisions we made. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a memorable day that feels personal and unique to you.

David was absolutely amazing, and we truly could not have had a better experience. We did not start looking for officiants as early as the other vendors, and I was feeling a bit stressed about it, but David made the process as easy and seamless as possible. He worked with us leading up to the event to make sure that the ceremony felt like us and was happy to make any adjustments we wanted even right up to the event. We really appreciated that we could be as much or little involved in the details of the ceremony as we wanted. The ceremony was beautiful - not only did we think David was amazing, but we got so many compliments from our guests as well (and he also took care of all the paperwork which was very much appreciated so we could focus on all the other important things). We feel so fortunate that we chose to work with David for our wedding - could not recommend him enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lauri was fantastic to work with and we are so grateful we found her. She was a caring a nurturing presence throughout, was very receptive to our requested changes as we planned the ceremony script, and was clearly motivated by doing what would be right for us. She met with me and my fiance about four times during our wedding planning process to get to know us and modify our ceremony plan/script to what spoke most to us most as a couple. She was knowledgable about a variety of cultural traditions and helped us incorporate the Irish Hand Fasting Blessing into our ceremony, providing us with an everlasting, unique memory and memento (the handfasting chord) of our promises to each other. We received several compliments from our wedding guests about Lauri's ease and professionalism while she officiated our wedding. We highly recommend her! - Tess, May 2025 Bride, Bill Miller's Castle

Rabbi Brent Chaim Spodek 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Offers 9 ceremony types
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Watertown, CT

It’s not 1952 anymore - nobody is scandalized that people live together before marriage, and thankfully, nobody is getting married because single women don’t have economic agency. So what does it mean for a modern couple to get married? We often think in terms of things we won’t do: we won’t leave, we won’t stray. Those are minimum requirements, not aspirations. The question of marriage is what will you do when - inevitably - love feels distant, and you are hurt or disappointed? I work with couples of all faith backgrounds who are as serious about their marriage as they are about their wedding and are ready to address that question.

Rabbi Brent offers an outstanding program that my wife and I completed before he married us. We spent meaningful time not just with the Rabbi, but with each other in our own time to help write our ketubah.  The ketubah signing and ceremony he lead for us was moving, beautiful, and so powerful for us. Our attendees were also quite impressed! I’d recommend Rabbi Brent to anyone- for weddings, or just any service he offers. He’s a great human being on top of being a fantastic Rabbi, and I look forward to keeping in touch with him.

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.

We had high expectations but Julie exceeded them! She was available when we needed to ask her questions or consult with her about the ceremony. We did 3 premarital counseling sessions, and they surprised us! Julie had us diving into topics that we would’ve never talked about, had she not facilitated the conversations. Grounded, confident and committed to her wedding couples! I would definitely recommend her!

We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our big day! From start to finish, Jess was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive. She took the time to really get to know us, and it showed in every word of the ceremony. It was personal, heartfelt, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of humor to keep everyone smiling. One of the things that made the ceremony even more special was that she’s bilingual. She incorporated both languages, making sure all of our guests felt included and connected. It meant so much to us and our families, and added such a beautiful touch to the ceremony. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the ceremony was, and thats all thanks to the way Jess made it feel so genuine and unforgettable.

I love working on weddings—a unique moment in couples' lives that I get to be a part of and help immortalize alongside them. Language often becomes a barrier, which is why I offer my services in Portuguese, English, and Spanish.

Nivea was the perfect choice for our wedding officiant. She communicated with us clearly throughout the planning process and created a ceremony that felt truly personal and meaningful to us. On our wedding day, we had a stressful moment when my husband realized he forgot the rings at home, but Nivea didn't hesitate to wait for us to get them. While we were waiting, she sat with me and talked me through my nerves, which helped me calm down so much. Her professionalism and genuine care made all the difference in making our day special. We are so grateful we chose Nivea to officiate our marriage.

Lawrence E. Adjah, MBA, M.Ed, M.Div. 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $2,250
  • Serves Watertown, CT for additional fees

Lawrence E. Adjah, MBA, M.Ed, M.Div. is a pastor, marriage counselor and best-selling author on relationships. Lawrence specializes in marriage counseling and one-on-one spiritual advisory. He approaches his guidance in a biblically based, structured, relatable, and systematic manner, with clear owned outcomes and next steps. Lawrence will guide you through the wedding planning process with warmth, intentionality and clarity. Lawrence offers a wide array of services to guide you through your wedding and beyond. He provides both wedding officiating services and vow renewals, as well as pre-marital counseling and ongoing marriage counseling.

My husband and I worked with Pastor Lawrence for a year of faith-based pre-marital counseling and had an amazing experience. We, like many couples, went into our first session thinking we’d already discussed the most important topics and we’d maybe need to do 3 formal pre-marital counseling sessions. Our first session was so impactful that we immediately decided that we wanted a full year of counseling. That decision, we believe, completely changed the trajectory of our marriage. Pastor Lawrence asked difficult, thought-provoking questions that helped us see our relationship (with each other and with God) in new ways, and each session left us feeling better equipped for marriage than we ever expected. His depth of knowledge, approachability, and ability to guide meaningful, relevant conversations aimed at aligning us as one—even when we thought we had nothing new to discuss—was truly a gift. We are so grateful for the wisdom and encouragement he poured into us throughout this process and would highly recommend him to any couple who is looking to build a strong, Christ-centered foundation going into their marriage.
