About Officiating By Amanda

Officiating By Amanda

Owner | Officiant

Poconos native, wife, proud business owner, newly established podcaster, loyal Sigma Kappa sorority sister, Albrightian and so much more! I am so proud to have officiated over 250 weddings! I am known for turning unity ceremony dreams into reality and being able to think on my feet, adding some situational commentary into your ceremony, adding laughter and putting everyone at ease. I always bring my “A” game and am happy to step into help out when I can!

I love to be "minister plus" with helping however I can to make your day successful! From complimentary consultation to determine your needs, to script creation with unlimited edits, Amanda is hands on and even provides legal and license reminders before and after the wedding. All of this and a comprehensive rehearsal (including reminders on the day of for forgetful groomsmen) are standard features for every ceremony. Then you have the helping Dad tie his tie, stepping in when the bartenders back out, dressing your dog as the ring bearer, customizing your unity ceremony to fit you, and more as added perks!

In three words: Collaborative, Fun, Resourceful

    Highly Recommended Officiant!!!

    Amanda is a very experienced and highly skilled wedding officiant, who invests her time and energy into clients as if they are the only ones she is working for, despite actually working for several at a time. The attention and assistance we got from Amanda was unrivaled by our other vendors. Amanda helped with everything from writing vows before to learning how to properly put on rings on the day of. I was in a trance during the ceremony, and because of her prep work, it appeared to have gone off without issue. My nerves worked hard, but Amanda worked harder!!!

    Wonderful from start to "I do"

    Amanda was amazing through the entire process, from the "boring" get to know you first call with all the logistics through the wedding day. Blake ended up performing the ceremony due to a last minute scheduling issue and did a great job. Amanda wrote a great script for the ceremony that was geared toward us as a couple. Highly recommend Amanda and Blake!!!

    Best Officiant

    We booked Officiating By Amanda for our wedding ceremony and we're so glad we did. Amanda stayed in touch throughout the planning process and made sure we knew exactly what to expect on the day of. She wove our family and daughters into the ceremony in a way that felt natural and special, and kept things light with moments that made everyone laugh. Her thoughtfulness showed in every detail, from the words she chose to how she guided us through the whole experience. If you have Amanda as an option for your wedding, book her without hesitation.

    Highly Recommend!

    Amanda was a wonderful officiant and a pleasure to work with. If you know what you want for your ceremony, she is more than willing to create a fully custom script of whatever you want! I highly recommend Amanda as a wedding officiant.

    Look no further…

    …because Amanda is wonderful! Amanda officiated our wedding last April in the Reading, PA area, and we couldn’t have been happier. She was easy to communicate with throughout the booking process and leading up to our wedding day, always making sure she understood exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. Amanda was such a big help on the day itself, ensuring our wedding party knew what to expect and felt comfortable. She was so warm and personable when she met with both the bridal party and the groomsmen beforehand. From our wedding party to our guests, everyone had such nice things to say about how delightful and professional Amanda was. I’d recommend her a hundred times over—definitely reach out to see if she’s available for your special day!

Of course! Even elopement packages have selection options so that the script matches the couple. Simple wedding has a semi-customized script and Deluxe and Platinum have fully customized scripts with unlimited edits. I even personalize further with in the moment and situational adjustments to capture what is happening in real time (script might say beautiful day but I would acknowledge the rain and how it is for good luck)
I've been ordained since 2014, officiating weddings since 2015, and running as a full LLC since 2024
Yes! All packages come with some level of rehearsal or talk-through. Elopement has zoom talk through by request; Simple wedding has zoom rehearsal guaranteed and in person by request and availability. Deluxe has in person whenever possible and Platinum has it guaranteed. Should the rehearsal option of the package not fit what you are looking for, zoom rehearsal can be added for $15 for a 30 minute rehearsal and an in person guaranteed rehearsal from 48 hours before to morning of can be added for $50.
Yes indeed! And since you are already married, you would save $50 off of the standard packages because you don't need licensing or legal reminders about your license. I also include a complimentary keepsake certificate to celebrate the day!
I do not require it though I do think it is important. Happy to provide recommendations for licensed counselors to help in the process. I am not a counselor - the best I can over is topic overviews and you as a couple decide whether you have discussed it, are in agreement, or if it is something you need more conversation on.
Within 72 hours of outreach, I will be able to let you know if I am available for your date. Then we schedule a consult call (normally within a week) and chat about all things for your wedding so I can put together a quote. Once you have the quote in hand, you've got some decisions to make! You can take up to 2 months to consider the quote before booking. After your deposit is in, I work in the background until we hit 2 months out from wedding and then bring you in on all of the things that have been going on (script, timeline, licensing, rehearsal, unity provisions, etc.) and we have the final 6 weeks to carry everything forward!
