    Book Harris!

    We couldn't have asked for a better officiant than Harris. He was direct and easy to work with, making the planning process smooth and collaborative. On the day of, Harris set the perfect tone for our day—fun and relaxed—while still keeping everything meaningful and personal. What really stood out was how well he read the room and knew exactly when to land a joke or pause for a moment. Harris made our ceremony feel genuinely memorable rather than just going through the motions. We highly recommend Harris Bloom to any couple looking for an officiant who is both professional and human.

    Best Officiant

    Our original officiant became ill and let us know just 48 hours before our wedding that he could no longer perform the ceremony. In a panic, I reached out to Harris, and within minutes he responded and confirmed he could step in. From the moment we spoke, the difference was night and day. Harris brought a calm, lighthearted energy that immediately put us at ease. His humor, professionalism, and ability to tell our story made the ceremony feel incredibly personal and genuine. He also provided great advice throughout the process and was thoughtful about every detail, even making sure to step aside at the right moments so our photographer could capture the best shots. I’ve lost count of how many guests told us it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they’ve ever attended. Harris’s personality, well-timed humor, and ability to connect with everyone made a lasting impression. I would recommend Harris without hesitation to anyone looking for a wedding officiant on the East Coast.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony! Harris absolutely nailed everything we hoped for. He was professional, extremely responsive, and truly captured our vision from the very first conversation. The ceremony he crafted for us was personal, heartfelt, funny, and exactly the tone we wanted. Our guests were laughing and smiling throughout, and we’ve had so many people tell us it was one of the best ceremonies they’ve ever seen. Harris balanced humor and meaning beautifully, and working with him was so easy and enjoyable every step of the way. We are so grateful he was part of our day and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an incredible officiant.

    Exactly what we were looking for!

    Harris was exactly what we were looking for in an officiant! He took the time to get to know us and create a personalized speech during the ceremony. His background as a comedian was definitely a hit! Not only did he bring the humor and make the ceremony actually fun, but he also had many touching remarks about our relationship that he dug out of us with his thoughtful questions ahead of time. It was the perfect balance of romantic and fun, which is exactly what we were looking for. Our guests had a lot of good things to say about him as well! He was also able to guide us on all the administrative things to do too, which was a huge help. We also love that he responds to emails practically instantly! We would definitely recommend him!

    Amazing officiant

    Harris was great to work with. We met multiple times before the wedding, so he could get to know us. He also gave us each a questionnaire for us to answer so he could personalize our ceremony. He worked with us on everything we wanted and didn’t want. We loved his sense of humor, which he brought to our ceremony. I highly recommend Harris as your officiant. You can’t go wrong.

I’ve been in business over a decade and have done over 1000 weddings (yes, I do over a 100 a year).
Personalizing your ceremony is one of the major differences between myself and other officiants. I WILL make it seem like I’m your best friend doing the ceremony. My questionnaire and our subsequent FaceTime will enable to add the little things that make a big difference (like what are your favorite TV shows, gimme something annoying about each other)
Of course! And it’s up to you whether we mention it or not as I have a funny way of adding it to the ceremony (if most know that you’re already married)
I do rehearsals when they are just before the ceremony. I can’t do them if they are the day before or I’d never be home! We would go over the processional during our meeting beforehand - I also will send you an email detailing what we discussed and I do get to every ceremony an hour before it begins to make sure everyone knows what they’re doing.
Also, no - maybe my wife can (she’s a therapist)
